Fig. 11—Line Power Connections
Use No. 18 AWG color-coded, insulated (35°C minimum) wire. If
thermostat is located more than 100 ft from unit, as measured
along the control voltage wires, use No. 16 AWG color-coded wire
to avoid excessive voltage drop.
1. Pump system down to 28 in. of mercury and allow pump to
continue operating for an additional 15 minutes.
2. Close service valves and shut off vacuum pump.
All wiring must be NEC Class 1 and must be separated from
incoming power leads.
3. Connect a nitrogen cylinder and regulator to system and open
until system pressure is 2 psig.
Use furnace transformer, fan coil transformer, or accessory trans-
former for control power, 24-v/40-va minimum.
4. Close service valve and allow system to stand for 1 hr. During
this time, dry nitrogen will be able to diffuse throughout the
system absorbing moisture.
NOTE: Use of available 24-v accessories may exceed the mini-
mum 40-va power requirement. Determine total transformer load-
ing and increase the transformer capacity or split the load with an
accessory transformer as required.
5. Repeat this procedure as indicated in Fig. 10. System will then
be free of any contaminants and water vapor.
FINAL TUBING CHECK
IMPORTANT: Check to be certain factory tubing on both indoor
and outdoor unit has not shifted during shipment. Ensure tubes are
not rubbing against each other or any sheet metal. Pay close
attention to feeder tubes, making sure wire ties on feeder tubes are
secure and tight.
FINAL WIRING CHECK
IMPORTANT: Check factory wiring and field wire connections
to ensure terminations are secured properly. Check wire routing to
ensure wires are not in contact with tubing, sheet metal, etc.

abuse and could affect unit reliability. See unit rating plate. Do not
install unit in system where voltage or phase imbalance (3-phase)
may fluctuate above or below permissible limits.
Refer to the individual instructions packaged with kits or acces-
sories when installing.
Step 13—Start-Up
NOTE: Use copper wire only between disconnect switch and
unit.
NOTE: Install branch circuit disconnect of adequate size per
NEC to handle unit starting current. Locate disconnect within sight
from and readily accessible from unit, per Section 440-14 of NEC.
To prevent compressor damage or personal injury, observe
the following:
• Do not overcharge system with refrigerant.

conclusion of defrost mode, reversing valve will de-energize, the
compressor will turn off for another 30 sec, and the fan will turn
off for 40 sec, before starting in the heating mode.
→
• 3–phase scroll compressors are rotation sensitive.
• A flashing LED on phase monitor indicates reverse rotation.
(See Fig. 18 and Table 3.)
Defrost
The defrost control is a time/temperature control which includes a
field-selectable time period (DIP switch 1 and 2 on the board)
between defrost cycles of 30, 60, 90, or 120 minutes (factory set at
90 minutes).
• This will not allow contactor to be energized.
• Disconnect power to unit and interchange 2 field wiring
leads on unit contactor.
SEQUENCE OF OPERATION
To initiate a forced defrost, two options are available depending on
the status of the defrost thermostat.
NOTE: Defrost control board is equipped with a 5-minute lock-
out timer which may be initiated upon an interruption of power.
If defrost thermostat is closed, speedup pins (J1) must be shorted
by placing a flat head screwdriver in between for 5 sec and
releasing, to observe a complete defrost cycle. When the Quiet
Shift switch is selected, compressor will be turned off for two 30
sec intervals during this complete defrost cycle as explained
previously. When Quiet Shift switch is in factory default OFF
position, a normal and complete defrost cycle will be observed.
With power supplied to indoor and outdoor units, transformer is
energized.
→ Cooling
On a call for cooling, thermostat makes circuits R-O, R-Y, and
R-G. Circuit R-O energizes reversing valve, switching it to cooling
position. On three phase models with scroll compressors, the units
are equipped with a phase monitor to detect if the incoming power
is correctly phased for compressor operation. (See Fig. 18 and
Table 3.) If the phasing is correct, circuit R-Y energizes contactor,
starting outdoor fan motor and compressor circuit. R-G energizes
indoor unit blower relay, starting indoor blower motor on high
speed.
If defrost thermostat is in open position, and speedup pins are
shorted (with a flat head screwdriver) for 5 sec and released, a
short defrost cycle will be observed (actual length is dependent
upon the selected Quiet Shift position). When Quiet Shift switch is
in ON position, the length of defrost is 1 minute (30 sec
compressor off period followed by 30 sec of defrost with com-
pressor operation). On return to heating operation, compressor will
again turn off for an additional 30 sec and the fan for 40 sec. When
the Quiet Shift is in OFF position, only a brief 30 sec cycle will be
observed.
NOTE: If the phasing is incorrect, the contactor will not be
energized. To correct the phasing interchange any two of the three
power connections on the field side.
When thermostat is satisfied, contacts open, de-energizing the
contactor and blower relay. Compressor and motors should stop.
If it is desirable to observe a complete defrost in warmer weather,
the thermostat must be closed as follows:
NOTE: If indoor unit is equipped with a time-delay relay circuit,
the blower runs an additional 90 sec to increase system efficiency.
1. Turn off power to outdoor unit.
2. Disconnect outdoor fan motor lead from OF2 on control board
(See Fig. 19.) Tape to prevent grounding.
→ Heating
On a call for heating, thermostat makes circuits R-Y and R-G. If
phasing is correct, circuit R-Y energizes contactor, starting out-
door fan motor and compressor. Circuit R-G energizes indoor
blower relay, starting blower motor on high speed.
3. Restart unit in heating mode, allowing frost to accumulate on
outdoor coil.
4. After a few minutes in heating mode, liquid line temperature
should drop below closing point of defrost thermostat (ap-
proximately 30°F).
Should temperature continue to fall, R-W2 is made through
sec-stage room thermostat bulb. Circuit R-W2 energizes a se-
quencer, bringing on first bank of supplemental electric heat and
providing electrical potential to sec heater sequencer (if used). If
outdoor temperature falls below setting of outdoor thermostat
(field-installed option), contacts close to complete circuit and bring
on sec bank of supplemental electric heat.
NOTE: Unit will remain in defrost until defrost thermostat
reopens at approximately 80°F coil temperature at liquid line or
remainder of defrost cycle time.
5. Turn off power to outdoor and reconnect fan motor lead to
OF2 on control board after above forced defrost cycle.
When thermostat is satisfied, its contactors open, de-energizing
contactor and sequencer. All heaters and motors should stop.
PressureGuard™ Switch
This outdoor unit is equipped with a heating vapor pressure
limiting device, PressureGuard™, which cycles the outdoor fan at
high ambient heating conditions. The exact ambient at which
outdoor fan cycles depends on indoor and outdoor unit sizing. The
effect of outdoor fan cycling on HSPF (Heating Seasonal Perfor-
mance Factor) is insignificant, due to its occurrence at outdoor
ambients where building load is very low.

Puron® is a high-pressure refrigerant. The purpose of this switch
is to provide maximum flexibility and minimum cost for the
installer/owner by not requiring special thicker wall vapor tubing
and indoor coils, thus allowing limited retrofit. The use of this
switch also allows the maximum number of indoor coil choices at
minimum cost for the installer/owner, since it can use standard
refrigeration tubing.
Quiet Shift
Quiet Shift is a field-selectable defrost mode, which will eliminate
occasional noise that could be heard at the start of the defrost cycle
and restarting of heating cycle. It is selected by placing DIP switch
3 (on defrost board) in ON position.
When Quiet Shift switch is placed in ON position, and a defrost is
initiated, the following sequence of operation will occur. Revers-
ing valve will energize, compressor will turn off for 30 sec, then
turn back on to complete defrost. At the start of heating cycle after
NOTE: Due to presence of a PressureGuard switch in outdoor

Step 14—Check Charge
5. Refer to Table 4. Find the point where required subcooling
temperature intersects measured liquid service valve pressure.
UNIT CHARGE
6. To obtain required subcooling temperature at a specific liquid
line pressure, add refrigerant if liquid line temperature is
higher than indicated or reclaim refrigerant if temperature is
lower. Allow a tolerance of ± 3°F.
Factory charge is shown on unit rating plate. To check charge in
cooling mode, refer to Cooling Only Procedure. To check charge
in heating mode, refer to Heating Check Chart Procedure.
COOLING ONLY PROCEDURE
HEATING CHECK CHART PROCEDURE
NOTE: If superheat or subcooling charging conditions are not
favorable, charge must be weighed in accordance with unit rating
plate ± 0.6 oz/ft of 3/8-in. liquid line above or below 15 ft
respectively.
To check system operation during heating cycle, refer to the HEAT
Pump Charging Instructions label on outdoor unit. This chart
indicates whether a correct relationship exists between system
operating pressure and air temperature entering indoor and outdoor
units. If pressure and temperature do not match on chart, system
refrigerant charge my not be correct. Do not use chart to adjust
refrigerant charge.
EXAMPLE:
To calculate additional charge required for a 25-ft line set:
25 ft - 15 ft = 10 ft X 0.6 oz/ft = 6 oz of additional charge
NOTE: In heating mode, check refrigerant charge only when
pressures are stable. If operating conditions cause PressureGuard
switch to open and outdoor fan to cycle, check refrigerant charge
in cooling or lower indoor dry bulb temperature. If in doubt,
remove charge and weigh in correct refrigerant charge.
Units installed with cooling mode TXV require charging with the
subcooling method.
1. Operate unit a minimum of 10 minutes before checking
charge.
2. Measure liquid service valve pressure by attaching an accurate
gage to service port.
NOTE: When charging is necessary during heating season,
charge must be weighed in accordance with unit rating plate ± 0.6
oz/ft of 3/8-in. liquid line above or below 15 ft respectively.
3. Measure liquid line temperature by attaching an accurate
thermistor type or electronic thermometer to liquid near
outdoor coil.
EXAMPLE:
To calculate additional charge required for a 25-ft line set:
25 ft - 15 ft = 10 ft X 0.6 oz/ft = 6 oz of additional charge
4. Refer to Heat Pump Charging Instructions label on outdoor
unit.
