air Filter requirements
Warning:
never operate the unit without a filter in place.
Dust and lint could accumulate on internal parts,
resulting in loss of efficiency, equipment damage
and possible fire. replace disposable filters with
the same type and size.
• Air filter(s) are not supplied and must be installed in the
return air system by the installer.Only three phase units
are equipped with an internal filter rack assembly.
• All return air must pass through the filters before entering
the unit. Recommended filter sizes are listed in
Table 1
.
notE:
It is important that all filters be kept clean and
replaced frequently to ensure proper operation of unit.
Dirty or clogged filters will reduce the efficiency of the
unit and result in unit shutdowns.
• Air filter pressure drop must not exceed 0.08 inches
WC. When replacing the air filters, a suitable air filter
must be installed upstream of the evaporator coil of the
return air system.
• Downflow Installations require an internal filter accessory
kit to be installed.
• Horizontal Installations require the air filter system be
installed in the return air ductwork.

Packaging removal
Remove the shipping carton and User’s Manual from
the equipment. Take care not to damage the tubing
connections when removing the carton. For rooftop
installations, remove and discard the two supports attached
beneath the unit.
rigging & Hoisting
Warning:
to avoid the risk of property damage, personal
injury, or death, it is the rigger’s responsibility
to ensure that whatever means are used to hoist
the unit are safe and adequate:
•
the lifting equipment must be adequate for the
load. refer to
table 5 (page 15)
for unit weights.
•
the unit must be lifted from the holes in the
base rails using cables or chains.
•
Spreader bars are required to protect the unit
and ensure even loading.
• Keep the unit in an upright position at all times.
the rigging must be located outside the units
center of gravity. refer to
Figure 7 (page 15)
for locating the center of gravity.
• All panels must be securely in place during
rigging and hoisting.
minimum clearance requirements
Q6SE units are certified as combination heating and
cooling equipment for outdoor installation only.
Figure
2 (page 7)
displays the minimum clearances to
obstructions for both downflow and horizontal discharge.
Units may be installed on wood flooring or on Class A, B,
or C roof covering material when used with bottom supply
and return air ducts as long as the following requirements
are met:
• If using horizontal supply and return air ducts, the
horizontal roof curb kit and return air kit must be installed
prior to unit installation. Horizontal roof curb is required.
• If using bottom discharge with return air ducts a roof
curb must be installed prior to unit installation. See
Rigging and Hoisting section for setting of the unit.
ground level
Ground level installations must be located according to
local building codes or ordinances and these requirements:
• Clearances must be in accordance with those shown
in
Figure 2
. Also consider clearances for access to the
internal filter.
• A suitable mounting pad must be provided and separate
from the building foundation. The pad must be level to
ensure proper condensate disposal and strong enough
to support the unit’s weight. The slab height must be a
minimum of 2” (5cm) above grade and with adequate
drainage. See
Figure 3
.
