Installer’s Guide
I.CONTROL WIRING
1. Connect wiring between indoor unit, outdoor unit
and Comfort Control. The use of color-coded low-
voltage wires is recommended.
2. A low voltage terminal board is provided for control
wiring, and is located on the left side of the cross
brace in the center of the unit.
3. If the low voltage wiring diagram is not listed in
this installer’s guide for the particular application,
refer to the wiring diagram located on the control
box cover of the outdoor unit or in the outdoor
unit’s service facts.
IMPORTANT:
When supplementary heaters are installed, inspect to
insure that all packaging material has been removed.
J. AIRFLOW ADJUSTMENT
CAUTION
!
Disconnect power to the air handler before changing
dip switch positions.
Failure to follow this procedure may result in equip-
ment damage.
Blower speed changes are made on the ECM Fan Con-
trol mounted on the control box. The ECM Fan Control
controls the variable speed motor.
There is a bank of 8 dip switches (See Figure 20). The
dip switches work in pairs to match the airflow for the
outdoor unit size (tons), cooling airflow adjustment, Fan
off-delay options, and heating airflow adjustment. The
switches appear as shown in Figure 21.
If the airflow needs to be increased or decreased, see
the Airflow Label on the air handler or the Blower Per-
formance Table in the Service Facts. Information on
changing the speed of the blower motor for your specific
outdoor model size is in the Blower Performance Table.
8. Do not connect the drain line to a closed drain sys-
tem.
9. Use Teflon
®
tape on the air handler drain line con-
nections!
Do Not Use pipe joint compound or PVC/
CPVC cement!
It is always recommended that an auxiliary drain pan
be installed under a horizontally installed air handler.
Connect the auxiliary drain line to a separate drain line
(no trap is needed in this line) and terminate according
to local codes.
NOTE: DO NOT use a torch or flame near the plastic
drain pan coupling.
NOTE: DO NOT tighten the drain pipe excessively. Sup-
port the condensate piping and traps outside the unit
to prevent strain on the drain coupling.
H. ELECTRICAL — POWER WIRING
1. These Air Handlers are shipped from the factory
wired for 230 volts. The units may be wired for 208
volts. Follow instructions on unit wiring diagram lo-
cated on blower housing and in the Service Facts
document included with the unit.
2. The selection of wire and fuse sizes should be made
according to the Minimum Branch Circuit Ampacity
and the Maximum Overcurrent Device listed on the
unit nameplate.
WARNING
!
TO PREVENT INJURY OR DEATH DUE TO ELECTRICAL
SHOCK OR CONTACT WITH MOVING PARTS, LOCK
UNIT DISCONNECT SWITCH IN OPEN POSITION BE-
FORE SERVICING UNIT.
3. Field wiring diagrams for electric heaters and unit
accessories are shipped with the accessory.
4. Wiring must conform to National and Local codes.
If an electric heater is not installed, connections are
made through the 7/8" knockout into the air handler
junction box to the two power leads and ground wire
connections which are located near the discharge of the
blower.
NOTE: If air handler is used with or without a heater,
the electrical entry hole as well as any other cabinet
penetrations must be sealed air-tight.
