General Information
Unit Inspection
As soon as the unit arrives at the job site
•
Verify that the nameplate data matches the data on the
sales order and bill of lading (including electrical data).
•
Verify that the power supply complies with the unit
nameplate specifications.
•
Visually inspect the exterior of the unit, including the
roof, for signs of shipping damage.
If the job site inspection of the unit reveals damage or
material shortages, file a claim with the carrier
immediately. Specify the type and extent of the damage
on the “bill of lading” before signing.
•
Visually inspect the internal components for shipping
damage as soon as possible after delivery and before
it is stored. Do not walk on the sheet metal base pans.
•
If concealed damage is discovered, notify the carrier’s
terminal of damage immediately by phone and by
mail. Concealed damage must be reported within 15
days.
•
Request an immediate joint inspection of the damage
by the carrier and the consignee. Do not remove
damaged material from the receiving location. Take
photos of the damage, if possible. The owner must
provide reasonable evidence that the damage did not
occur after delivery.
•
Notify the appropriate sales representative before
installing or repairing a damaged unit.
Storage
Take precautions to prevent condensate from forming
inside the unit’s electrical compartments and motors if:
1. the unit is stored before it is installed; or,
2. the unit is set on the roof curb, and temporary heat is
provided in the building. Isolate all side panel service
entrances and base pan openings (e.g., conduit holes,
Supply Air and Return Air openings, and flue
openings) from the ambient air until the unit is ready
for startup.
Note:
Do not use the unit’s heater for temporary heat
without first completing the startup procedure
detailed in the Unit Startup chapter.
The manufacturer will not assume any responsibility for
equipment damage resulting from condensate
accumulation on the unit’s electrical and/or mechanical
components.
Unit Nameplate
A Mylar unit nameplate is located on the unit’s corner
support next to the filter access panel. It includes the unit
model number, serial number, electrical characteristics,
refrigerant charge, as well as other pertinent unit data.
Compressor Nameplate
The nameplate for the compressors are located on the side
of the compressor. Variable speed compressors are not
marked with a RLA. This value is derived from testing.
Microchannel Condenser Barcode ID
Barcode decal used for condenser coil part identification
can be located on the vertical header and top of coil's inlet/
outlet side.
Unit Description
Before shipment, each unit is leak tested, dehydrated,
charged with refrigerant and compressor oil, and run
tested for proper control operation.
The condenser coils are either aluminum fin, mechanically
bonded to copper tubing or all aluminum microchannel.
Direct-drive, vertical discharge condenser fans are
provided with built-in thermal overload protection.
The ReliaTel™ control module is a microelectronic control
system that is referred to as “Refrigeration Module”
(RTRM). The acronym RTRM is used extensively
throughout this document when referring to the control
system network.
This module through proportional/integral control
algorithms performs specific unit functions that govern
unit operation in response to zone temperature, supply air
temperature, and/or humidity conditions depending on
the application. The stages of capacity control for these
units are achieved by starting and stopping the
compressors.
The RTRM is mounted in the control panel and is factory
wired to the respective internal components. The RTRM
receives and interprets information from other unit
modules, sensors, remote panels, and customer binary
contacts to satisfy the applicable request for cooling.
Clogged Filter Switch (Optional)
The unit mounted clogged filter switch monitors the
pressure differential across the return air filters. It is
mounted in the filter section and is connected to the
RTOM. A diagnostic SERVICE signal is sent to the remote
panel if the pressure differential across the filters is at least
0.5" wc. The contacts will automatically open when the
pressure differential across the filters decreases to
approximately 0.4" wc. The clogged filter output is
energized when the supply fan is operating and the
clogged filter switch has been closed for at least 2 minutes.
The system will continue to operate regardless of the
status of the filter switch.
Note:
On units equipped with factory installed MERV 13
filters, a clogged filter switch with different
pressure settings will be installed. This switch will
close when the differential pressure is
