Features and Benefits

• Swept Wing Fan Technology¹: Features quieter operation and improved unit acoustics
• Two-Stage Scroll Compressor²: Features two speeds (high and low) of cooling and heating, providing more precise temperature control, lower humidity and greater efficiency when compared to single stage compressors
• Inverted Reversing Valve: Allows for faster heat transfer with gravity assist shifting and reduced joint stress for increased reliability
• PlusOne® Expanded Valve Space: 3 in. – 4 in. – 5 in. service valve space—provides a minimum working area of 27-square inches for easier access
• PlusOne® Triple Service Access: 15 in. wide, industry leading corner service access, two fastener, removeable corner and individual louver panels—makes repairs easier and faster

¹Does not apply to the 3.5 and 4 Ton
²Does not apply to the 1.5 Ton 1-stage model

Control Wiring

FIGURE 4
CONTROL WIRING FOR AIR HANDLER

NOTES:

1. Jumper “E” to “W2” to transfer control of supplemental heat to 1st stage when the emergency heat switch is on.
2. This wire turns on heat for defrost, omit for most economical operation.
3. Wire with colored tracing stripe.

Application Guidelines

1. Intended for outdoor installation with free air inlet and outlet. Outdoor fan external static pressure available is less than 0.01-in. wc.
2. Minimum outdoor operation air temperature for cooling mode without low-ambient operation accessory is 55°F (12.8°C).
3. Maximum outdoor operating air temperature is 125°F (51.7°C).
4. For reliable operation, unit should be level in all horizontal planes.
5. Use only copper wire for electric connections at unit. Aluminum and clad aluminum are not acceptable for the type of connector provided.
6. Do not apply capillary tube indoor coils to these units.
7. Factory-supplied filter drier must be installed.

Refrigerant Line Size Information

NOTES:
1) Do not exceed 200 ft linear line length.
2) *Do not exceed 100 ft vertical separation if outdoor unit is above indoor unit.
3) Always use the smallest liquid line allowable to minimize refrigerant charge.
4) Applications shaded in light gray indicate capacity multipliers between 0.90 and 0.96 which are not recommended, but are allowed.
5) Applications shaded in dark gray are not recommended due to excessive liquid or suction pressure drop.
