Cabinet Skid (4-units per skid)
Receiving and Storage Upon receipt of the equipment, check the carton and pallets for visible damage. Make a notation on the shipper’s delivery ticket before signing. If there is any evidence of rough handling, immediately open the cartons to check for concealed damage. If any damage is found, notify the carrier within 48 hours to establish your claim and request their inspection and a report. The Warranty Claims Department should then be contacted.
Never stack cabinets higher than as illustrated in Figure 1 at any time during transportation or storage or damage may occur. Figure 1: Unit Cabinet Skid as Shipped and Stored
IMPORTANT This product was carefully packed and thoroughly inspected before leaving the factory. Responsibility for its safe delivery was assumed by the carrier upon acceptance of the shipment. Claims for loss or damage sustained in transit must therefore be made upon the carrier as follows: VISIBLE LOSS OR DAMAGE Any external evidence of loss or damage must be noted on the freight bill or carrier’s receipt, and signed by the carrier’s agent. Failure to adequately describe such external evidence of loss or damage may result in the carrier’s refusal to honor a damage claim. The form required to file such a claim will be supplied by the carrier. CONCEALED LOSS OR DAMAGE Concealed loss or damage means loss or damage which does not become apparent until the product has been unpacked. The contents may be damaged in transit due to rough handling even though the carton may not show external damages. When the damage is discovered upon unpacking, make a written request for inspection by the carrier’s agent within fifteen (15) days of the delivery date and file a claim with the carrier.
Chassis Skid (4 per skid, stored two skids high) Never stack chassis´ higher than as illustrated in Figure 2 at any time during transportation or storage or damage may occur. Figure 2: Chassis Skids Stacked 2 High Maximum
For storing, each carton is marked with “up” arrows.
Storage and Operating Environment 6'
4'
Temporary storage at the job site must be indoor, completely sheltered from rain, snow, etc. High or low temperatures naturally associated with weather patterns will not harm the units. Excessively high temperatures, 140°F (60°C) and higher, may deteriorate certain plastic materials and cause permanent damage. Storage Temperature: -40ºF (-40ºC) to 140ºF (60ºC) Operating Temperature: 32ºF (0ºC) to 140ºF (60ºC) Humidity: 10%RH to 90%RH Non-condensing PCB Material and Flammability Rating: IPC/ANSI FR or CEM material as required to meet UL 94V-0 flammability rating.
Page 6 of 48 / IM 986-1
DO NOT handle units by the riser piping. Riser clamps hold the riser in position; they are not designed to support the cabinet weight. The clamps are removed after the unit is installed.
Handling Carefully check items against the bills of lading to verify all crates and cartons have been received. Cabinets and Chassis normally ship four to a pallet. Carefully inspect all units for shipping damage. Report damage immediately to the carrier and file a claim. Check the unit data plate to be sure the unit electrical agrees with the power supply available (Figures 3).
Unit cabinets are factory assembled and wired and have individual thermostat control capability. They are installed by stacking one unit on top of the other. While installing, prevent dirt and other foreign matter from entering the risers and plugging lines or valves. See "Cleaning & Flushing Water System" on page 16.

Pre-Installation Considerations
Figure 11: Typical Side by Side Unit Installation
1. To prevent damage to equipment, do not operate supplementary heating and cooling during the construction period. 2. Inspect the carton for any specific tagging numbers indicated by the factory per a request from the installing contractor. At this time the voltage, phase and capacity should be checked against the plans. 3. Check the unit size against the plans to verify that the unit is being installed in the correct location. 4. Before installation, check the available dimensions of the area where the unit is to be installed versus the dimensions of the unit. 5. Note the location and routing of water piping, condensate drain piping, and electrical wiring. The locations of these items are clearly marked on submittal drawings. 6. The installing contractor will find it beneficial to confer with piping, sheet metal, and electrical foremen before installing any unit. Note: Check the unit data plate for correct voltage with the plans before installing the equipment.
WARNING Make sure all electrical ground connections are made in accordance with local code.
WARNING The contractor shall cover the units to protect the machines during finishing of the building. This is critical while spraying fireproofing material on bar joists, sandblasting, spray painting and plastering.
For Optimum Unit Performance and to Help Minimize Noise and Vibration ● Adhere to the "Critical Dimensions" for locations of framing and distances to the cabinet. ● Install a 1/4" thick vibration isolation pad under the entire footprint of the unit cabinet base. ● Be sure there are no kinks and that the stainless steel braided hoses do not come in contact with and vibrate on chassis and cause noise. ● Ensure there is no metal-to-metal contact between return air grille and cabinet and the discharge diffuser and the cabinet, use provided gaskets. ● Air balancing in ducted applications is critical for proper airflow at each diffuser.
NOTICE Top air discharge units will require turning vanes and/or a volume damper for proper air flow and balancing, to minimize turbulence. These components must be field-installed and furnished in accordance with SMACNA guidelines.

Typical Ducted Application
NOTICE Top air discharge units will require turning vanes and/or a volume damper for proper air flow and balancing, to minimize turbulence. These components must be field-installed and furnished in accordance with SMACNA guidelines.
Note: All ducted applications require a unit that utilizes an ECM-X13 or ECM 2.3 motor (sizes 021-036). X13 motors are factory set for 2-speeds, 2 and 4 tap. For ducted unit applications only position 1 and 2-speed motor taps should be used. Additionally, static pressure must not exceed 0.40 inch static. See table below.

Installation Procedure !
CAUTION
Installation and maintenance is to be performed only by qualified personnel who are familiar with, and in compliance with state, local and national codes and regulations, and experienced with this type of equipment. Sharp edges and coil surfaces are potential injury hazards. Avoid contact with them.
Risers and Cabinet 1. Position the cabinet and risers within the building pipe chase and align with the unit on the floor above and/or below (Figure 23). Figure 23: Position the Cabinet and Risers
Note: Refer to "Critical Dimensions", page 14 to determine the correct recess depth from the front of the unit to the drywall face. When the installation is complete, the return air grille/panel frame must meet to seal with the cabinet discharge opening and the discharge air diffuser duct must meet and seal with the discharge opening. 2. Using the riser extensions, make preliminary riser connections between the units above and or below to assure proper riser alignment (supply, return and condensate). See figure 20 on page 14. 3. After all components are aligned properly, anchor the unit cabinet to the floor using the McQuay provided mounting brackets (Figure 24).
Riser Couplings Connect to Risers on Unit Above

Note: Be sure that each riser stub-out (supply & return) are centered within the riser knockout in the cabinet (Figure 25). If there is a void between the stub-out and the stub-out seal on the cabinet interior, this indicates that the stub-out is not properly centered within the knockout. Figure 25: Center the Riser Stub-Outs in the Knockouts and within Seals on the Cabinet Interior
WARNING Before furring-in units, hydrostatically test the risers and unit connection joints in accordance with local building codes, to make sure they are leak-proof.
Note: Perform "Cleaning and Flushing Water System" Procedure Below.
CAUTION When furring-in units make sure that no screws or nails penetrate the unit cabinet.

Cleaning and Flushing Water System CAUTION
Stub-Out Connections with Valves Centered within Knockouts and Seals
Prior to first operation of any unit, the water circulating system must be cleaned and flushed of all construction dirt and debris or damage will occur.
Stub-Outs Seals
CAUTION The unit is not designed to support the weight of the risers. Anchor them securely to the building structure.
5. Anchor risers to the building structure to prevent vertical riser movement greater than, plus or minus one inch to allow for riser expansion or contraction.
1. Prior to first operation of any unit, the water circulating system must be cleaned and flushed of all construction dirt and debris.
If the units are equipped with water shutoff valves, either electric or pressure operated, the supply and return runouts must be connected together at each unit location. This will prevent the introduction of dirt into the unit (Figure 26).
6. Solder all supply and return riser connections to units above and/or below. 7. Remove riser ties used to secure the risers to the cabinet during shipping. IM 986-1 / Page 17 of 48
Figure 26: Connections for flushing system piping
Once the system has been filled with clean water and antifreeze (if used), precautions should be taken to protect the system from dirty water conditions.
NOTICE It is not McQuay International’s policy to make recommendations on water treatment. However, the general contractor or owner should contact a local water treatment company regarding water treatment. A fouled closed loop water system will lead to premature component failure.
Adapter, MPT x Straight Pipe Thread included with flexible hoses Note: Use for making connections to the supply & return valves for the "Cleaning and Flushing Water System" procedure.
2. Fill the system at the city water makeup connection with all air vents open. After filling, close all air vents. The contractor should start main circulator with the pressure reducing valve open. Check vents in sequence to bleed off any trapped air, ensuring circulation through all components of the system. Power to the heat rejector unit should be off, and the supplementary heat control set at 80°F (27°C). While circulating water, the contractor should check and repair any leaks in the unit and surrounding piping. Drains at the lowest point(s) in the system should be opened for initial flush and blow-down, making sure city water fill valves are set to make up water at the same rate. Check the pressure gauge at pump suction and manually adjust the makeup to hold the same positive steady pressure both before and after opening the drain valves. Flush should continue for at least two hours or longer until the drain water is clean and clear. 3. Shut off supplemental heater and circulator pump and open all drains and vents to completely drain down the system. Short circuited supply and return runouts should now be connected to the unit supply and return connections. Do not use sealers at the swivel flare connections of hoses. 4. Flush system with water for 2 hours or longer until water is clean. 5. Refill the system with clean water. Test the water using litmus paper for acidity, and treat as required to leave the water slightly alkaline (pH 7.5 to 8.5). The specified percentage of antifreeze may also be added at this time. Use commercial grade antifreeze designed for HVAC systems only. Do not use automotive grade antifreeze (See Table 5 on page 19 for Antifreeze Correction Factors). Page 18 of 48 / IM 986-1
Note: Contact a local water treatment company to confirm water clarity prior to unit operation. Dirty water will result in system wide degradation of performance and solids may clog system-wide valves, strainers, flow regulators, etc. Additionally, the heat exchanger may become clogged which reduces compressor service life or causes premature failure. 6. Set the loop water controller heat add setpoint to 70°F (21°C) and the heat rejection setpoint to 85°F (29°C). Supply power to all motors and start the circulating pumps. After full flow has been established through all components including the heat rejector (regardless of season) and the vented air and loop temperatures have been stabilized, each of the units will be ready for check, test and start-up, air balancing, and water balancing.

Connect Condensate Drain Hose to Drain Stub Out 1. Remove the two (2) screws located along the back edge of the drain pan, holding it in place (Figure 30).
Each heat pump requires a shutoff valve on both the supply and return risers for easy serviceability and removal of the chassis when necessary. We suggest using a factory installed 2-way motorized isolation valve on the return line of the chassis and a Auto Flow Regulator (AFR) installed on the supply line which allows proper water flow in a given size unit. Each valve package has 1/2" FPT or 3/4" FPT threaded connections (Figure 32). Figure 31: Typical Motorized Valve Piping
2. Adjust the direction of the condensate drain hose and slip it over the drain stub out. Using the provided clamp, secure the hose by tightening the clamp.

The Vertical stack water source heat pump chassis can be configured with a 2-way motorized valve. The 2-way motorized valve is mounted on the return line of each unit and the Auto Flow Regulator (AFR) is mounted to the supply line. Valve assemblies terminate with either a 1/2" (unit sizes 009-018) or 3/4" (unit sizes 021-036) NPT threaded connection and will accommodate factory supplied hoses.
Make Flexible Hose Connections to the Supply and Return Valves From Riser Stub-Outs
Note: To complete the flexible hose connections to the chassis, only partially install the chassis into the cabinet as shown on page 22, figure 35 “Installing Unit Chassis”.
1. Using the specified supply and return hoses make supply and return hose connections to the riser stubouts (Figure 32).
Important When Handling Chassis Note: If using a hand truck to move chassis, tip the chassis forward or back only, pivoting on the ends of the chassis rails. Tipping and pivoting the chassis side to side on the long edge of the rails will damage the rails and the rubber vibration isolators.
Note: The MPT straight pipe adapters can be removed from the swivel end of the flexible hoses now and threaded onto the chassis FPT supply and return pipe connections (Figure 33). This will make hose connections to the chassis easier when the chassis is partially installed.
!
2. Attach the (MPT) fixed hose ends to the female connections on the valves. Using two crescent wrenches, one to hold the valve pipe connection and the second on the hose end, tighten the connections.
CAUTION
Slots in the chassis rails that may be used as hand holds have sharp metal edges. To avoid personal injury, heavy protective gloves should be used while moving and lifting the unit chassis.

Installing The Return Air Grille/Panel 1.
Install the return air grille/panel assembly (Figure 41). Center, level and plumb the frame inside the framed opening. Push the assembly into the opening until the gaskets compress against the cabinet, and the frame face is tight to the finished wall.
Note: Shims should be used to make up the space between the studs and the panel frame at the locations of the fasteners on the panel frame (4). Adhere them to the panel frame to keep them in place (Figure 41).
Note: Be sure the bottom flange of the door frame slides beneath the cabinet flange, as shown in Figure 41. This seal must compress between the bottom panel flange and the bottom cabinet flange when the installation of the panel door frame is complete. 2. Check that the panel door frame is centered within the opening and seals completely to the cabinet return air opening. Also confirm that the room side flange of the frame is level, plumb and firmly against the drywall. Secure the hinged panel door frame with the 4 screws provided.

Twin Units Installation Twin opposite hand units share a common riser system; i.e., supply, return, and drain riser. This is commonly called a “master/secondary” arrangement. The master unit is shipped with the risers attached. These special risers have stub-outs for both the master unit and the secondary unit which must be field connected and the following procedures must be followed for all twin unit installations. 1. Secondary units ship without risers and share common risers with the master unit. Knockout holes on the cabinet are provided for the 6" stub outs to make piping connections to the coil supply and return and the condensate drain.
2. Master units are offered in two-pipe systems with either right-hand or left-hand connections. Secondary units are offered to accommodate internal connections to any of these riser systems or locations. 3. The riser location (right or left) is determined by facing the return air grille panel. The risers are located on either the right or left of the unit. This defines the riser location. See Unit Configurations on page 12. 4. The riser block-off plates are located in the base of the secondary unit. Block-offs must be installed on the secondary unit before putting it into position.

The unit has been designed for operation with either a unit mounted thermostat or a microelectronic wall thermostat, selected by the manufacturer. Do not operate the unit with any other type of wall thermostat. Each unit has a printed circuit board control system. The low voltage output from the low voltage terminal strip is AC voltage to the wall thermostat. R is A/C voltage output to the wall stat.
Service Test Mode Enabled 1 Serial EEPROM Corrupted Network “Offline” Received
The 24 volt low voltage terminal strip is set up so R-G energizes the fan only. R-Y1 energizes the compressor for cooling operation, R-W1 energizes the compressor and reversing valve for heating operation. The reversing valve is energized in the heating mode. The circuit board has a fan interlock circuit to energize the fan whenever the compressor is on if the thermostat logic fails to do so.
1 Compressor
The output to the wall stat is AC current. Terminal (R) on the wall stat can be connected to terminal (R) on the PC board for AC voltage. R = AC current R to G = fan only R to Y1 = cooling R to W1 = heat The MicroTech III unit controller has a lockout circuit to stop compressor operation if any one of its safety devices is triggered (high pressure switch and low temperature sensor). If the low temperature sensor is triggered, the unit will go into the cooling mode for 60 seconds to defrost any slush in the water-to-refrigerant heat exchanger. After 60 seconds the compressor is locked out. If the condensate sensor detects a filled drain pan, the compressor operation will be suspended only in the cooling mode. The unit is reset by opening and closing the disconnect switch on the main power supply to the unit in the event the unit compressor operation has been suspended due to low temperature sensor or high pressure switch. The unit does not have to be reset on a condensate overflow detection. The MicroTech III unit controller fault output sends a signal to an LED on a wall thermostat. Table 6 shows for which functions the fault output is “on” (sending a signal to the LED).

relay/compressor terminal is labeled COMP, switched line of the same electric input as any of the L1 terminals.
Remote Reset Feature The Remote Reset feature provides the means to remotely reset automatic lockouts generated by highpressure and/or low-temperature (in heating) faults. When the MicroTech III unit controller is in automatic lockout due to one of these faults, and the cause of the fault condition has been alleviated, energizing the O-terminal for 10 seconds or more will force the MicroTech III unit controller to clear the lockout. A unit power cycle can also be used to clear an automatic lockout if the conditions causing the fault have been alleviated. The Intelligent reset feature helps to minimize nuisance trips of automatic reset lockouts caused by highpressure and/or low-temperature (in heating) faults. This feature clears faults the first two times they occur within a 24-hour period and triggers an automatic lockout on the 3rd fault. The retry count is reset to zero every 24 hours. The MicroTech III unit controller has built-in night setback operation. A “grounded’ signal to the “U” terminal on TB3 of the unit control puts the unit into the unoccupied mode for night setback operation. Fan operation terminates and unit control will only respond to signal at the W2 terminal. Daytime heating and cooling operation is locked out. +24VAC to W2 energizes the compressor and reversing valve for heating operation. Night setback operation can be overridden for two hours by energizing the O on the TB2 terminal of the unit control for 3 seconds. Day thermostat setpoints then control the heating and cooling operation. The MicroTech III unit controller also accommodates shutdown operation on receipt of a “grounded” signal to the “E” input, respectively, on TB3 input terminal of the unit control.

MicroTech III Controller With BACnet Communication Module for Native BACnet Communications McQuay water source heat pumps are available with a factory mounted and tested McQuay BACnet communication module The module is factory programmed and tested with all the logic required to control the unit, and is designed to communicate over a BACnet MS/TP communications network to a building automation system (BAS). The module operates the compressor, fan, and reversing valve as required to maintain the space temperature within the current setpoints. Data regarding equipment status, water and air temperatures, and fault conditions can be monitored by any BAS. Setpoints and other system preferences may be changed remotely using a front end workstation or service tool software. The module makes operational data and commands available on a communications network using BACnet objects and properties. Each heat pump controller connects to the communication network using a BACnet MS/TP communication network, which is a simple twisted-pair communications connection that operates at up to 76.8 Kbps. DIP switches on the controller enable the MS/TP MAC address to be set in the range 0-127. A status LED on the unit indicates communication activity on the MS/TP communication network. Figure 47: MicroTech III BACnet Water Source Heat Pump Snap-in Communication Module
Each BACnet-compliant controller has the following operating features: Start-up – The unit will not operate until all the inputs and safety controls are checked for normal conditions. Fan operation – Fan operation can be customized in software to run continuously during occupied mode, or to cycle ON or OFF appropriately on a call for heating and cooling. Cooling mode – On a call for cooling, the compressor and fan start immediately. Compressor runtime is calculated as a percent of full cycle time (17 minutes) using proportional-integral control to maximize efficiency. Heating mode – On a call for heating, the compressor and fan start immediately, and compressor run-time is calculated as a percent of full cycle time (17 minutes) using proportional-integral control to maximize efficiency. Short Cycle Protection and Random Start – A start delay of 180 seconds plus the compressor’s MAC address in seconds prevents short-cycling and simultaneous start-up. A minimum 2-minute on time and 5-minute off time for the compressor further ensures short-cycle protection. Occupied Mode – A simple software control signal from the building automation system or a wallmounted unit puts the unit into occupied mode. The unit controls compressor and fan operation to maintain occupied setpoints. High and low limits for occupied setpoints are software configurable.
Each BACnet-compliant unit includes discharge air and leaving water temperature sensors, as well as all equipment protection sensors, signals, and switches. Wall-mounted room sensors are available to control heating and cooling operation. Sensors are available for status override; wall-mounted sensors with tenant setpoint adjustment lever and timed-override button; wall-mounted sensors with LED status, timed-override button, tenant setpoint adjustment buttons, passwordprotected field service access to operational data, and optional humidity sensor; and wall-mounted sensors with LCD and programmable operation.
Page 32 of 48 / IM 986-1
Unoccupied Mode – A simple software control signal from the building automation system or a wall-mounted unit puts the unit into unoccupied mode for night setback operation. The unit controls compressor and fan operation to maintain unoccupied heating and cooling setpoints, which are also software configurable.
After-hours Override Mode – A simple software control signal from the building automation system or a wall-mounted unit can initiate after-hours heating or cooling in half-hour increments. Maximum override time is software configurable up to 9.5 hours. This feature can also be disabled in software. Reversing valve delay – When the compressor turns off after heating mode, the reversing valve remains energized for 60 seconds before it returns to the normal cooling position. The reversing valve energizes 10 seconds before the compressor. Load Shed – Load shedding can be orchestrated by the building automation system using the occupied/ unoccupied command in software. Brownout Protection – An on-board sensor measures input voltage and suspends compressor and fan operation if the supply voltage drops below 82% of the normal line voltage for a minimum of 10 seconds, creating an alarm available in software. The alarm automatically resets when the supply voltage returns to above 90% of normal. Condensate Overflow Protection – A liquid sensor at the top of the drain pan senses a high water level. Upon sensing water, cooling operation is suspended, while heating operation is allowed. The controller creates an alarm available in software. The alarm automatically resets when the water level returns to normal.
Attained Temperature and Water Temperature Alarms –Attained temperature, water temperature alarms with software-adjustable setpoints are available in software. The controller samples supply air and records attained temperatures for heating and cooling. If after two hours of operation, the attained temperature does not meet the software-configurable setpoint for heating or cooling as appropriate, a software alarm occurs. The alarm automatically resets when the attained temperature is within setpoints. The controller also monitors leaving water temperature. If the leaving water temperature is outside software-configurable setpoints, compressor operation is suspended and high or low water temperature alarms occur. The alarm automatically resets when the water temperature returns to within 6 deg. F of the setpoint. Unit Self-test Mode – While the unit is in occupied mode, a self-test can be initiated via software. Upon initiation of the test, compressor operation is suspended for a minimum of five minutes, cooling attained temperatures are cleared, and attained temperature alarms are cleared. The unit then switches to full heat for four minutes and then records the attained supply air temperature. Compressor operation is then suspended for five minutes. The unit then switches to full cooling for four minutes and the attained supply air temperature is recorded. Attained temperature alarms are set if the attained temperatures failed to reach alarm setpoints during heating or cooling.
Safety Control – The unit monitors refrigerant pressure and generates separate high-pressure and lowpressure alarms available in software. While either alarm is active, compressor operation is suspended. In a refrigerant low-temperature condition, an alarm occurs and the unit operates in cooling mode for 60 seconds to defrost the heat exchanger, after which compressor operation is suspended. These alarms can be reset in software or by cycling power to the controller.

The MicroTech III unit controller has a lockout circuit to stop compressor operation if any one of its safeties opens (high pressure or suction line sensor). If the suction line low temperature sensor opens, the unit will go into the cooling mode for 60 seconds to defrost any slush in the water-to-refrigerant heat exchanger. After 60 seconds, the compressor is locked out. If the condensate sensor detects a filled drain pan, the compressor operation will be suspended only in the cooling mode. The unit is reset by opening and closing the disconnect switch on the main power supply to the unit in the event the unit compressor operation has been suspended due to low suction line sensor reaching its set point, or a high pressure switch. The MicroTech III unit controller has a fault output signal to an LED on a wall thermostat. Table 10 shows in which function the fault output is “on” (sending a signal to the LED).

Troubleshooting The in and outs of R-410A R-410A is a non-ozone depleting blend of two refrigerants - HFC-125 and HFC-32 in a fifty percent mixture. R-410A exhibits higher operating pressure and refrigeration capacity than R-22. R-410A is intended for use in new air conditioning applications that have traditionally been used HCFC-22 (R-22). Due to higher capacity and pressure of R-410A, it must not be used in existing R-22 systems. Although R-410A is non-flammable at ambient temperature and atmospheric pressure, it can become combustible under pressure when mixed with air. Note: R-410A should not be mixed with air under pressure for leak testing. Pressure mixtures of dry nitrogen and R-410A can be used for leak testing.
Lubrication R-410A should be used only with polyester (POE) oil. The HFC refrigerant components in R-410A will not be compatible with mineral oil or alkylbenzene lubricants. R-410A systems will be charged with the OEM recommended lubricant, ready for use with R410A.
Charging Due to the zeotropic nature of R-410A, it should be charged as a liquid. In situations where vapor is normally charged into a system, a valve should be installed in the charging line to flash the liquid to vapor while charging. Make certain that the recycle or recovery equipment used is designed for R-410A. The pressure of R-410A refrigerant is approximately 60 percent greater than that of R-22. Pressure gauges require a range up to 800 PSIG high side and 250 PSIG low side. Recovery cylinders require a 400 PSIG rating – do not put R410A in a 300 PSIG rated cylinder.
WARNING Recycle/recovery equipment must be designated for R410A. R-410A pressure is greater than R-22. Improper equipment can cause severe injury or death.

General Maintenance 1. Normal maintenance on all units is generally limited to filter changes. Units are provided with permanently lubricated motors and require no oiling even though oil caps may be provided. 2. Filter changes are required at regular intervals. The time period between changes will depend upon the project requirements. Some applications such as motels produce a lot of lint from carpeting and linen changes, and will require more frequent filter changes. Check filters at 60-day intervals for the first year until experience is acquired. If light cannot be seen through the filter when held up to sunlight or a bright light, it should be changed. A more critical standard may be desirable. 3. The condensate drain pan should be checked annually and cleaned and flushed as required. 4. Record performance measurements of volts, amps, and water temperature differences (both heating and cooling). A comparison of logged data with start-up and other annual data is useful as an indicator of general equipment condition. 5. Periodic lockouts almost always are caused by air or water problems. The lockout (shutdown) of the unit is a normal protective result. Check for dirt in the water system, water flow rates, water temperatures, airflow rates (may be a dirty filter), and air temperatures. If the lockout occurs in the morning following a return from night setback, entering air below machine limits may be the cause.

Cooling Refrigeration Cycle When the wall thermostat is calling for COOLING, the reversing valve directs the flow of the refrigerant, a hot gas, leaving the compressor, to the water-to-refrigerant heat exchanger. Here the heat is removed by the water and the hot gas condenses to become a liquid. The liquid then flows through a thermal expansion metering system to the air-torefrigerant heat exchanger coil. The liquid then evaporates becoming a gas, at the same time absorbing heat and cooling the air passing over the surfaces of the coil. The refrigerant then flows as a low pressure gas through the reversing valve and back to the suction side of the compressor to complete the cycle.

Here the heat is removed by the air passing over the surfaces of the coil and the hot gas condenses to become a liquid. The liquid then flows through a capillary thermal expansion metering system to the water-to-refrigerant heat exchanger. The liquid then evaporates becoming a gas, at the same time absorbing heat and cooling the water.

Read Outputs
To avoid electrical shock, personal injury or death, be sure that field wiring complies with local and national fire, safety, and electrical codes, and voltage to the system is within the limits shown in the job-specific drawings and unit electrical data plate(s).
Check Timers
Power supply to unit must be disconnected when making field connections. To avoid electrical shock, personal injury or death, be sure to rigorously adhere to field wiring procedures regarding proper lockout and tagout of components.
General Use and Information The MicroTech III unit controller is provided with two drive terminals, R(24VAC) and C(0 VAC) that can be used by the end user to drive the thermostat inputs (G, Y1, Y2, W1, and W2) and control inputs (U, E, and O). Any combination of a single board drive terminal (R or C) may be used to operate the MicroTech III unit controller’s control or thermostat inputs. However, only one drive terminal (R or C) can be connected to any individual input terminal or damage may result. Some control inputs are not accessible to the end user (for example, HP, LP, SLTS, and COF). Typically the MicroTech III unit controller’s R (24VAC) terminal is used to drive the board’s thermostat inputs and control inputs by connecting it to the R terminal of an industry standard thermostat. The control outputs of the standard thermostat are then connected to the MicroTech III unit controller thermostat inputs and control inputs as needed. Any remaining board input(s) may be operated by additional thermostat outputs or remote relays (dry contacts only). All MicroTech III unit controller inputs must be operated by dry contacts powered by the control board’s power terminals. No solid state devices (Triacs) may be used to operate the MicroTech III unit controller inputs. No outside power source may be used to operate the MicroTech III unit controller inputs.
