V-TYPICAL OPERATING CHARACTERISTICS
A-Blower Operation and Adjustment
1 -  Blower  operation  is  dependent  on  thermostat  control 
system.
2 -  Generally,  blower  operation  is  set  at  thermostat  sub-
base fan switch. With fan switch in ON position, blower 
operates continuously. With fan switch in AUTO posi-
tion, blower cycles with demand or runs continuously 
while heating or cooling circuit cycles.
3 -  Depending  on  the  type  of  indoor  thermostat,  blower 
and entire unit will be o when the system switch is in 
OFF position.
B-Temperature Rise (FIGURE 22)
Temperature rise for SL280UHV units depends on unit in-
put, blower speed, blower horsepower and static pressure 
as marked on the unit rating plate. The blower speed must 
be set for unit operation within the range of “TEMP. RISE 
°F” listed on the unit rating plate.

1 -  Tap locations shown in FIGURE 23.
2 -  Punch a 1/4” diameter hole in supply and return air ple-
nums.  Insert  manometer  hose  ush  with  inside  edge 
of  hole  or  insulation.  Seal  around  the  hose  with  per-
magum.  Connect  the  zero  end  of  the  manometer  to 
the discharge (supply) side of the system. On ducted 
systems, connect the other end of manometer to the 
return duct as above.
3 -  With only the blower motor running and the evaporator 
coil dry, observe the manometer reading. Adjust blow-
er motor speed to deliver the air desired according to 
the job requirements. For heating speed external static 
pressure  drop  must  not  be  more  than  0.5”  W.C.  For 
cooling speed  external  static  pressure drop  must  not 
be more than 0.8” W.C.
4 -  Seal the hole when the check is complete.
