INTRODUCTION
Model FX4D is designed for flexibility and can be used for upflow,
horizontal, or downflow (kit required) and manufactured and mobile
home applications. These units are designed to meet the low air leak
requirements currently in effect. Because of this, the units need special
attention in the condensate pan and drain connection area and when
brazing tubing. These units are designed specifically for Puronr
refrigerant and must be used only with Puronr refrigerant air
conditioners and heat pumps as shipped. These units are available for
systems of 18,000 through 60,000 Btuh nominal cooling capacity.
Factory-authorized, field-installed electric heater packages are available
in sizes 5 through 30kW. See Product Data literature for available
accessory kits.
HEATER PACKAGES
This unit may or may not be equipped with an electric heater package.
For units not equipped with factory-installed heat, a factory-approved,
field-installed, UL listed heater package is available from your
equipment supplier. See unit rating plate for a list of factory-approved
heaters. Heaters that are not factory approved could cause damage which
would not be covered under the equipment warranty. If fan coil contains
a factory-installed heater package, minimum circuit ampacity (MCA)
and maximum fuse/breaker may be different than units with a same size
field-installed accessory heater. The difference is not an error and is due
to calculation differences per UL guidelines.
INSTALLATION
CHECK EQUIPMENT
Unpack unit and move to final location. Remove carton taking care not
to damage unit. Inspect equipment for damage prior to installation. File
claim with shipping company if shipment is damaged or incomplete.
Locate unit rating plate which contains proper installation information.
Check rating plate to be sure unit matches job specifications.
MOUNT UNIT
Unit can stand or lie on floor, or hang from ceiling or wall. Allow space
for wiring, piping, and servicing unit.
IMPORTANT:
When unit is installed over a finished ceiling and/or
living area, building codes may require a field-supplied secondary
condensate pan to be installed under the entire unit. Some localities may
allow as an alternative, the running of a separate, secondary condensate
line. Consult local codes for additional restrictions or precautions.
NOTE:
Nuisance sweating may occur if the unit is installed in a high
humidity environment with low airflow.
UPFLOW INSTALLATION
If return air is to be ducted through a floor, set unit on floor over opening
and use 1/8 to 1/4-in (3 to 6 mm) thick fireproof resilient gasket between
duct, unit, and floor.
Side return is a field option on slope coil models. Cut opening per
dimensions. (See Fig. 1.) A field-supplied bottom closure is required.
DOWNFLOW INSTALLATION
In this application, field conversion of the evaporator is required using
accessory downflow kit along with an accessory base kit. Use fireproof
resilient gasket, 1/8 to 1/4-in (3 to 6 mm) thick, between duct, unit, and
floor.
