INSTALLATION
MOUNTING THE UNIT
The wall sleeve is attached to the I-TEC unit from the
outside of the building. See Figures 9A and 9B. Refer
to wall sleeve Manual 2100-562 supplied with sleeve.
Following are the steps for attaching the I-TEC to the
wall sleeve.
1. Lift the unit into place making sure that it is
aligned side to side.
2. Push the unit back until the rear panel touches the
sleeve gasket.
3. This unit must be level from side to side and from
front to back. If adjustments are necessary, shim
up under the base rails with sheets of metal or any
substance not affected by moisture.
4. Attach the sleeve to the unit using the ten (10) ¾"
long self-tapping screws supplied with the sleeve.
5. The exhaust sleeve has three (3) ¾" long screw slots
in each side flange. Line these up with the screw
engagement holes in the fan panel. Attach using
six (6) ¾" long pointed sheet metal screws supplied
with the sleeve. Extend the sleeve out until it is
flush with the louver grill attachment angles.
6. Lock the sleeve in place using two (2) ½" long
pointed sheet metal screws on each side by shooting
through the slot into a pre-punched hole.
7. A bottom trim piece is shipped loose for
installation beneath the doors. Attach the trim
piece to the unit with screws provided.
8. The compressor is secured to the base with two (2)
bolts for shipping. Both bolts are identified
with a tag. Remove shipping bolts (see Figure 5 on
page 13).
WIRING – MAIN POWER
Refer to the unit rating plate and/or Table 2 on page 6
for wire sizing information and maximum fuse or circuit
breaker size. Each unit is marked with a “Minimum
Circuit Ampacity”. This means that the field wiring used
must be sized to carry that amount of current. Depending
on the installed KW of electric heat, there may be two
field power circuits required. If this is the case, the unit
serial plate will so indicate. All models are suitable only
for connection with copper wire. Each unit and/or wiring
diagram will be marked “Use Copper Conductors Only
suitable for at least 75°C”. THESE INSTRUCTIONS
MUST BE ADHERED TO. Refer to the National Electrical
Code (NEC) for complete current carrying capacity data
on the various insulation grades of wiring material. All
wiring must conform to NEC and all local codes.
The electrical data lists fuse and wire sizes (75°C copper)
for all models, including the most commonly used heater
sizes. Also shown are the number of field power circuits
required for the various models with heaters.
The unit rating plate lists a “Maximum Time Delay Relay
Fuse” or circuit breaker that is to be used with the
equipment. The correct size must be used for proper
circuit protection, and also to assure that there will be
no nuisance tripping due to the momentary high starting
current of the compressor motor.
See “START UP” section for information on three phase
scroll compressor start-ups.
The field wiring conduit connections are located on the
top right-hand corner of the unit with a wire raceway
to feed the wires down to the circuit breaker(s). See
Figure 12.
