A. GENERAL

These air handlers and heaters are designed so that all
wiring between the heater and air handler is accom-
plished via mating polarized plugs,  power for the air
handler is provided from  heater circuit 1,  so that only
one conduit (power source) is needed to provide power to
the unit on single circuit applications.

 1.  Check the applicable tables to insure that the Heater

selected is approved for use with the air handler in
which it is to be applied, in the cofiguration in which
it is to be installed.

 2. Check the components received for damage. Report

any defects or shortages to the transportation com-
pany immediately.

 3. Be sure power supply agrees with listing shown on

heater nameplate.

B. INSTALLATION With 

TWG 

Air Handlers

1.  Remove the blower access panel from the front of the

air handler unit.

2.  Unplug the female polarized plug from the air handler

electrical junction box and remove the junction box,
male polarized plug, power wiring and discard .

3.  Remove the cover from the heater compartment of the

air handler and discard.

4.  Remove the cover from the heater field wiring and

control compartment box. 

An adapter plate is pro-

vided for heaters which are used with air han-
dlers that are 21.5" wide or wider. When re-
quired, attach the adapter plate to the back of the
heater  on the side opposite the knockouts using
2 screws.

ALL phases of this installation must comply with

NATIONAL, STATE AND LOCAL CODES

 5.  Remove the appropriate knockouts in the heater field

wiring compartment. See Figure 1 on page 2. Remove
the appropriate knockouts in the air handler for
making electrical connections to the heater.  The holes
in the air handler must align with the holes in the
heater field wiring compartment.

6.  Insert the heater assembly into the heater cavity of the

air handler so that the field wiring holes in the air
handler and the heater will align.  Secure the heater
compartment to the air handler with the four screws
removed from the hardware envelope.

IMPORTANT: Conduit must attach directly to the heater

           control box.

7. Make all wiring connections per applicable field wiring

diagrams in these instructions.  All instructions 

must

conform to national and local electrical codes.

8. Connect the female polarized plug (disconnected in

item 2) from the air handler control box to the male
polarized plug on the bottom of the heater control box

9. Refer to the heater airflow chart on the air handler

rating nameplate for the appropriate  minimum blower
speed tap selection to be used with an approved heater
installed.

10. For heaters with self contained circuit breakers, an

opening in the blower access panel is provided so that
the breakers may be operated without removal of the
blower access panel.  Remove the metal cover from the
circuit breaker opening in the  air handler access panel
and discard, cut out the fiberglass insulation only in the
areas where the circuit breakers will extend through
the opening. Install the plastic "AirTite" circuit breaker
cover in the front panel opening with the two screws
provided.

11. Replace all panels removed during the heater instal-

lation
