About This Manual

Literature Change History

Use this manual for Packaged Fresh Airunits, models FADA and FAHA. This is the“B” issue of this manual, revised toinclude the total energy wheel option. Itprovides specific installation, operation,and maintenance instructions for “BO”and later design sequences.

These units have modular DDC controlsthat provide operating functions signifi-cantly different than conventional airconditioning units. Refer to the startupand test mode procedures within thismanual. Also, reference the Tranepublication, Packaged Fresh Air UnitProgramming Guide, FAXA-SVP01B-EN.For units with gas heat, also referencethe Reznor Installation Form RGM 401Installation/Operation/Service Manual.

Overview of ManualThis manual describes proper installation,startup, operation, and maintenanceprocedures for the Packaged Fresh Airunit. Carefully review the informationwithin this manual and follow theinstructions to minimize risk of improperoperation and/or component damage.

The roof curb specifically designed for thePackaged Fresh Air unit is available in14” or 24” height from Trane. The curbmust be mounted on a permanent roofstructure before attempting to install theunit. Reference the roof curb installationinstructions in the Trane publication,“Accessory Roof Curb Kit” InstallationManual, FAXA-SVN01B-EN. Dimensionaldata for use with curbs other than Trane,can be found on pages 15-32 of thismanual.

� Verify the unit size and tagging with theunit nameplate to ensure the correctunit is received.

� Inspect the unit for possible shippingdamage and make any necessaryclaims with the freight deliverycompany immediately.� Before installing the roof curb,

remember to allow minimumrecommended clearances for routinemaintenance and service. Refer to unitdimensions and clearances onsubmittals or in Dimensions andWeights section on page 15.� Verify the unit roof curb is installed

properly prior to beginning unitinstallation. See the Roof CurbInstallation Manual, FAXA-SVN01B-EN.� Make proper acoustic considerations

before installing unit. Do not install unitabove sound-senstive locations.� Allow adequate space for service and

operating clearances. Reference page10.� Make provisions for correct supply

power and note electrical connectionknockouts locations on the unitsubmittals or in the Dimensions andWeights section on page 15. Thisincludes main power and dual powerconnections for electric heat.

Note: Verify electric stub-out within roofcurb assembly, if using bottom electricalknockouts.

� Electrical supply power must meetspecific balance and voltagerequirements as described in the“Electrical Requirements” section onpage 36.� Units with gas heat, ensure adequate

gas service and piping is available atunit installation location.� Ensure the unit installation location is

level.

Receiving and Handling

Shipping PackagePackaged Fresh Air units ship fullyassembled.

Ship-Separate AccessoriesField-installed sensors ship separatelyinside the unit’s filter/return air section.Units with gas heat have temporarypanels in place for shipping. Thepermanent panels are located in thiscompartment and must be field-installed.Units with the total energy wheel optionhave an exhaust louver that ships insidethe exhaust compartment. Install thelouvers after installing the unit in its finalposition.

WARNING

No step surface!Do not walk on the sheet metal drainpan. Walking on the drain pan cancause the supporting metal tocollapse, causing death or seriousinjury.

Roof Curb

You must install the roof curb beforebeginning unit installation. Reference theRoof Curb Installation Manual, FAXA-SVN01B-EN for complete installationinstructions. For reference, installationinstructions are provided below.Reference roof curb dimensions in theDimensions and Weights section onpages 15–32.

Note: Do not tighten any of the screwsused to assemble this section until thecurb has been leveled and squared in itsinstalled location.

Roof Curb and DuctworkEnsure the unit curb encloses the entireunit base area. It is referred to as a “fullperimeter” type curb. Fabricate andinstall the supply air and return airductwork adjoining the roof curb beforethe unit is set into place. Note electricalstub-ups within the curb.

GeneralSet the roof curb and Packaged Fresh Airunit level to ensure proper operation. Ifproviding a field-fabricated roof curb, seepage 12 for roof curb details for unitswithout the total energy wheel option.See page 13 for units with the totalenergy wheel option. All installationsmust conform with local building codes,or in the absence of local codes, with theNational Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1.

Acoustic Considerations

Before determining the final unitinstallation site, remember that properunit placement is critical in reducingtransmitting sound levels to the building.The ideal time to make provisions toreduce sound transmissions is during thedesign phase. The most economicalmeans of avoiding a potential acousticalproblem is to place units in areas that arenot acoustically sensitive. Ideal locationsare over over corridors, utility rooms,toilets, or other areas where highersounds levels below the unit may beacceptable.

Follow these basic guidelines to helpminimize sound transmission through thebuilding structure:• Locate the unit’s center of gravity close

to or over a column or main supportbeam.

• If the roof structure is very light, replaceroof joists using a structural shape inthe critical areas described above.

Note: Cut applicable holes only for thesupply, exhaust, and return duct pen-etration in the roof deck. To maintainroof integrity and prevent possibleproperty damage, do not remove theroof decking from the inside perimeter ofthe curb.

Installation Preparation

Before installing the unit, perform thefollowing procedures to ensure properunit operation.

1. Verify the roof curb is level. To ensureproper unit operation, install the unitlevel (zero tolerance) in both horizontalaxes. Failure to level the unit properlycan result in condensate managementproblems, such as standing waterinside the unit. Standing water and wetsurfaces inside units can result inmicrobial growth (mold) in the drainpan that may cause unpleasant odorsand serious health-related indoor airquality problem.

2. Allow adequate service and codeclearances as recommended in“Service Access” section on page 10.

3. Position the unit and skid assembly inits final location. Test lift the unit todetermine exact unit balance andstability before hoisting it to theinstallation location. See Figure I-IP-2 onpage 41 for typical rigging procedures,including cautions and proper uses ofsuch equipment as fork lifts, spreaderbars, and hooks.

Duct Connections

Horizontal Discharge Units Only (ModelFAHA)When attaching ductwork to a horizontaldischarge unit, provide a watertightflexible connector at the unit to preventnoise transmission from the unit into theductwork. Refer to the Dimensions andWeights section on pages 13–23 for thesupply air and return air openingdimensions. All outdoor ductworkbetween the unit and the structure shouldbe weather proofed after installation iscomplete.

WARNING!

Hazardous voltage!Disconnect electrical power sourceand remote disconnects beforeservicing unit. Failure to do so maycause death or injury.

WARNING!

Disconnect gas supply!Before servicing unit, FIRST turn offthe gas supply. Failure to turn off thegas supply can cause death or seriousinjury.

Ductwork ConsiderationsInstall all air ducts according to theNational Fire Protection Associationstandards for the “Installation of AirConditioning and Ventilation Systemsother than Residence Type (NFPA 90A)and Residence Type Warm Air Heatingand Air Conditioning Systems (NFPA90B).

Make duct connections to the curb with aflexible material such as heavy canvas. Ifa fire hazard exists, Trane recommendsusing Flexweave 1000, type FW30 orequivalent canvas. Use three inches forthe return duct and three inches for thedischarge duct. Keep the material looseto absorb unit vibration.

Run the ductwork as far as possiblewithout changing size or direction. Do notmake abrupt turns or transitions near theunit due to increased noise and excessive

static losses. Use elbows with splitters orturning vanes to minimize static losses.

Poorly constructed turning vanes maycause airflow generated noise. Checktotal external static pressures against fancharacteristics to be sure the requiredairflow is available throughout theductwork.

Gas Pipe Sizing

Follow the procedure below to size thegas piping to adequately provide gaspressure at the gas heater.1. Find the cu ft/hr by using the formula:

cu ft/hr = Btu/cu ft.2. Refer to Table I-MR-1. Match “Pipe Run

in Feet” with appropriate “Gas Input -Cu Ft/hr” figure. Match this figure to thepipe size at the top of the column. Forexample, requires 67 ft (20.4m) run ofgas pipe to connect a 200 MBh gas ductfurnace to a 1,000 Btu/cu ft (0.29) kW)natural gas supply.

200,000 Btu/cu ft1,000 Btu/cu ft = 200 cu ft/hr

Using Table I-MR-1, a 1” pipe is needed.Before making any connections to

Figure I-MR-1. Gas pipe connection

existing line suppling other gas appli-ances, contact the local gas company tomake sure existing line is adequate sizeto handle the combined load.

Gas Pipe Installation Procedure1. Install the gas piping in accordance with

applicable local codes.2. Check gas supply pressure. Each gas

heater must be connected to a gassupply capable of supplying its full ratedcapacity at a pressure not less than 5”w.c. (1.62 kPa) nor greater than 14” w.c.(0.5 psi) for natural gas. Size and installall gas piping in accordance with ANSIStandard Z223.1-1992 (or latest edition)National Fuel Gas Code. In Canada, gaspiping should be according to CAN/CGAB149. See Table I-MR-1 for correct gassupply piping size. If gas pressure isexcessive on natural gas applications,install a pressure regulating valve in theline upstream from the main shutoffvalve for each independent heater.

3. Adequately support the piping toprevent strain on the gas manifold andcontrols.

4. To prevent the mixing of moisture withgas, run the takeoff piping from the top,or side, of the main.

Condensate Drain Trapping

A fresh air unit is selected for itsdehumidifying capability. As such,condensate can be formed at anenormous rate. The Packaged Fresh AirUnit, drain pan and condensate line havebeen sized and designed accordingly. Anoften-overlooked element of propercondensate drainage is trapping. Anincorrectly designed and installed trap onthe piping exiting the drain pan canrestrict the flow of condensate or cause‘‘spitting’’ or “geysering” of thecondensate water which can dampen theinterior insulation of the air handler and/or ductwork, creating an opportunity formold infestation. The HVAC equipmentmanufacturer’s installation and trappinginstructions must be carefully followed toassure adequate condensate removalunder all operating conditions. Figure I-MR-2 shows the proper design for a p-trap design, in an air handler with a draw-through coil arrangement.

Power Wire Sizing andProtection Device Equations

Each type of unit has its own set ofcalculations for MCA (minimum circuitampacity) and MOP (maximumovercurrent protection. For units withmultiple modes of operation, you mustconsider each individual field-wiredhazardous voltage circuit. Use the loadthat provides the highest value in theapplicable circuit. To correctly size theunit’s electrical service wiring, read theload definitions that follow and then findthe appropriate set of calculationsbased on your unit type.

Load DefinitionsLoad 1 = current of the largest motor

(compressor or fan motor)Load 2 = sum of the currents of all

remaining motorsLoad 3 = current of electric heatersLoad 4 = control power transformer = any other load rated at one amp or

more (gas heat, factory-wiredconvenience outlet)

Single-Source Power

Set #1: Cooling only units and coolingwith gas heat, single source power

MCA = (1.25 x load 1) + load 2 + load 4

MOP = (2.25 x load 1) + load 2 + load 4

Select an overcurrent protective devicerating equal to the MOP value. If theMOP value does not equal a standarddevice size as listed in NEC 240-6, selectthe next lower standard device rating. Ifthe selected MOP is less than the MCA,then reselect the lowest standardmaximum overcurrent protectivedevice size that is equal to or larger thanthe MCA, provided the reselecteddevice size does not exceed 800 amps.

Disconnect Switch Sizing (DSS) – if fieldprovided and installedIf the unit has a factory-installed, non-fused disconnect switch, this sizingequation is not necessary. If thedisconnect is field-provided andinstalled, use the following equation todetermine its rating:

DSS = 1.15 x (load 1 + load 2 + load 4)

Select a disconnect switch (DSS) size

equal to or larger than the DSS valuecalculated.

Set #2: Units with electric heat, singlesource power, non-concurrent loadTo arrive at the correct MCA and MOPvalues, you must perform two sets ofcalculations: one for cooling only (set #1)and one for electric heat only (set #2).Calculate the MCA and MOP values as ifthe unit were in the cooling mode (usethe equations given in set #1). Thenrepeat the calculations for MCA andMOP for the unit in the heating modeusing set #2. When determining loads,keep in mind that the compressors andcondenser fans do not run while the unitis in the heating mode.

For units using heaters:• less than 50 kW,

use the formula, MCA = 1.25 x (load 1+ load 2 + load 4) + (1.25 x load 3)

• equal to or greater than 50 kW,use the formula, MCA = 1.25 x (load 1+ load 2 + load 4) + load 3

Select the nameplate MCA value that isthe larger of the cooling (set #1) or theheating mode MCA calculated above.

MOP = (2.25 x load 1) + load 2 + load 3 +load 4

Select an overcurrent protective devicerating equal to the MOP value. If theMOP value does not equal a standarddevice size as listed in NEC 240-6, selectthe next lower standard device rating. Ifthe next lower standard rating is lessthan 125% of the current rating of theelectric heater load, select the nexthigher standard device rating. If theselected MOP is less than the MCA, thenreselect the lowest standard device sizewhich is equal to or larger than theMCA, provided the reselected devicesize does not exceed 800 amps.

Select the MOP value that is the largerof the cooling (set #1) mode MOP valueor the heating MOP value calculatedabove.

Disconnect Switch Sizing (DSS) – if fieldprovided and installedIf the unit is ordered with a factory-installed non-fused disconnect switch,this sizing equation is not necessary. Ifthe disconnect is to be field-providedand installed, use the following equationto determine its rating:

DSS = 1.15 x (load 1 + load 2 + load 3 +load 4)

Select the DSS value that is the larger ofthe cooling (set #1) mode DSS or theheating mode DSS value calculatedabove. Select a disconnect switch sizeequal to or greater than the DSS valuecalculated.

Set #3: Units with electric heat, singlesource power, concurrent loadConcurrent load = two compressors andfirst stage electric heat

Primary Heat Reheat SelectionYou may enable primary heat reheat totake advantage of the primary heatsource as supplemental reheat for thecondenser reheat. Although in mostcases, the MCA and MOP values areunaffected by the concurrent loads ofcompressors, condenser fans, and firststage of electric heat, there are a fewcircumstances where the MCA and MOPare increased when this sequence isemployed.

You must perform three sets of calcula-tions to obtain the correct MCA and MOPvalues: one for cooling (set #1) only, onefor electric heat (set #2) only, and one forwhen the unit is in the cooling mode withcompressors and electric heat onconcurrently (set #3).

For size 031 and 040 units, compressorsA (1K1) and B (1K2) can run concurrentlywith 1/3 of three-stage electric heat or 1/7of seven-stage electric heat.

For size 051 and 066 size units, compres-sors A (1K1) and D (1K4) can runconcurrently with 1/3 of three-stageelectric heat or 1/7 of seven-stage electricheat.

For units using heaters less than 50 kW:MCA = (1.25 x load 1) + load 2 + load 4 +(1.25 x load 3)

For unit using heaters equal to or greaterthan 50 kW:MCA = (1.25 X load 1) + load 2 + load 3 +load 4

Select the nameplate MCA value that isthe largest of the three sets of MCAcalculations.

MOP = (2.25 x load 1) + load 2 + load 3 +load 4

Select an overcurrent protective device

rating equal to the MOP value. If the MOPvalue does not equal a standard devicesize as listed in NEC 240-6, select thenext lower standard device rating. If thenext lower standard rating is less than125% of the current rating of the electricheater load, select the next higherstandard device rating. If the selectedMOP is less than the MCA, then reselectthe lowest standard device size which isequal to or larger than the MCA, pro-vided the reselected device size does notexceed 800 amps.

The MOP value selected should be thelargest of the three sets of MOP valuecalculations.

Disconnect Switch Sizing (DSS) – if fieldprovided and installedIf the unit is ordered with a factory-installed non-fused disconnect switch,this sizing equation is not necessary. Ifthe disconnect is to be field-provided andinstalled, use the following equation todetermine its rating:

DSS = 1.15 x (load 1 + load 2 + load 3 +load 4)

Select the DSS that is the largest of thethree sets of DSS calculations. Select adisconnect switch size equal to or greaterthan the DSS value calculated.

Set #4: Units with Electric Heat, DualSource PowerDual source power is required only onsome 208V and 230V units whenprovided with electric heat. Those unitsare:

size voltage elec ht kW

031 208V or 230V 42 kW orlarger

040 208V or 230V 42 kW orlarger

051 208V or 230V 70 kW orlarger

066 208V or 230V 70 kW orlarger

Dual Source Power

For units with dual source power, usetwo different sets or MCA and MOPcalculations, one for each powerconnection. MCA1 and MOP1 representthe values calculated for the operation ofthe compressors and condenser fans.

For the calculations of MCA1 and MOP1,use the instructions from set #1previously in this section.

MCA2 and MOP2 represent the valuescalculated for the operation of the unit inheating mode:

MCA2 = (1.25 x load 3) if heater kW isless than 50kW

or

(1.0 x load 3) if heater kW is 50kW orgreater, MOP2 = (1.25 x load 3)

Select an overcurrent protective devicerating for the heating circuit equal to theMOP2 value. If the MOP2 value does notequal a standard device size as listed inNEC 240-6, select the next lower stan-dard device rating. If the selected MOP2is less than the MCA2, then reselect thelowest standard device size that is equalto or larger than the MCA2, provided thereselected device size does not exceed800 amps.

Disconnect Switch Sizing (DSS) – if fieldprovided and installed:If the unit is ordered with a factory-installed non-fused disconnect switch, thissizing equation is not necessary. If thedisconnect is to be field-provided andinstalled, use the following equation todetermine its rating:

Remote Human InterfacePanel Installation

Human Interface (HI) PanelThe HI enables the user to communicatenecessary unit operating parameters andreceive operating status informationfrom within the occupied space.

The HI displays top level information inthe LCD window, unless the operatorinitiates other displays, for the variousunit functions. It also displays menureadouts in a clear language two line, 40character format. The 16-key keypadallows the operator to scroll through thevarious menus to set or modify theoperating parameters. See Figure I-IP-6to reference the HI keypad.

Remote Human Interface PanelThe remote human interface (RHI) panelis identical to the unit mounted HI with theexception of the “unit select” key. Thiskey allows the operator to switch fromone unit to the next to program or viewstatus information regarding a particularunit.

The RHI functions the same as the unitmounted HI with two exceptions. The firstis the “test start” function. The operatorcan view the service parameters, but canonly initiate the service test function atthe unit. The RHI door has a locking screwto deter access by unauthorized person-nel. Additionally, the RHI can control up tofour different units.

Location RecommendationsThe HI microprocessor module ismounted inside a molded plasticenclosure for surface mounting. It is notweatherproof. Therefore, it is onlyapplicable for indoor use.

Locate the RHI panel in an area that willensure the communication link betweenthe panel and the unit(s) does not exceed5,000 feet maximum or pass betweenbuildings. See Table I-IP-2.

The run length of the low voltage ACpower wiring to the remote HI must notexceed three (3) ohms/conductor. Referto Table I-IP-3.

Unit Startup Procedures

1. Check all electrical connections fortightness.

2. Be sure all system components areproperly set and installed.

3. Inspect all ductwork and ductconnections.

4. Remove compressor and fanassembly tie down bolts.

5. Verify the total energy wheel sealdoesn’t leak. See procedure below.

To start the unit, complete the followinglist in order:1. Apply power to the unit. Close the unit

disconnect switch(es).2. Adjust setpoints at the HI.3. Turn on the gas if unit has gas heaters

and verify all lines are purged of air.

See the Packaged Fresh Air Unit Pro-gramming Guide, FAXA-SVP01B-EN, foravailable unit operating setpoints. Referto the job specifications for propersetpoints.

Total Energy Wheel SealchecksThe total energy wheel has a neoprenebulb seal to provide an effective seal inboth the peripheral and side-to-sidesealing directions. Also, it is easilyadjustable to compensate for seal run-in,shipping misalignment, etc. The neoprenebulb is attached to a metal reinforced U-shaped neoprene grip. The metal/neoprene grip allows an expandable griprange that can be moved closer orfurther from the sealing face as needed.The peripheral bulb seals against thewheel outer band the inner bulb sealsagainst the wheel face.

Follow the procedure below:1. With the wheel stopped, move seals as

close to the sealing surface as possiblebut without exceeding grip range ofbulb seal and without pressing the bulbdown against the seal face.

2. Bump the motor. If the motor will notturn, the seal is too close. Nudge it backwhere needed. The seal will seek itsequilibrium position based on theclosest part of the sealing face.

Because the seal is meant to be anoncontact seal, small gaps may be seenbetween seal and sealing surface when itreaches the equilibrium position. Sealleakage is meant to be under 5% at one-inch of differential between supply andexhaust. Some seal run-in is commonand will result in small amounts of wearin the neoprene.

Unit Startup Checklist1. Ensure all fans rotate is in the direction

of the arrow on the fan housing. Ifrotation is incorrect, first verify theincoming power phasing is correct. If itis correct, switch wires on the fancontact so the fan is properly phased.

2. Check the fan belt condition andtension. Adjust the tension if belts arefloppy or squeal continually. Replaceworn or fraying belts in matched sets.

3. Check voltage at all compressorterminals. Actual voltage should bewithin 10% of nameplate voltage.

4. Check voltage imbalance from thesethree voltage readings, at eachcompressor. Maximum allowablevoltage imbalance, phase to phase, is2%.

5. Check amp draw at compressorterminals. RLA and LRA is on the unitnameplate.

6. Measure amp draw at evaporator andexhaust fan motor terminals. FLA datais on the motor nameplate.

7. After the system has stabilized (15 – 30minutes), check and record operatingpressures and temperatures for allcircuits.

8. Check natural gas pressure and verifyno less than 5” w.c. (0.18 psi) or greaterthan 14” w.c. (0.5 psi).

9. Inspect refrigerant flow in the liquid linesight glass. Flow should be smooth andeven, with no bubbles once the systemhas stabilized.

Normal startup can occur provided thatTracer Summit is not controlling themodule outputs or the generic BAS is notkeeping the unit off.

Overview

Fresh Air Unit FunctionsThe Packaged Fresh Air Unit (FAU)provides conditioned outdoor air suitablefor mechanical ventilation or make-up air.The FAU conditions outdoor air asnecessary to meet system performancerequirements by filtration, cooling,dehumidification, and/or heating. The FAUmay deliver ventilation air in a number ofways. See the System Configurationssection and Figures O-GI-2 through O-GI-4for more information.

FiltrationFiltration is necessary for the FAU tomaintain system operating efficiency, meetoccupant comfort and health needs, andprovide adequate building filtration to aidindoor air quality. The Packaged FAU offersa variety of filter options to meet mostapplication needs.

CoolingWhen the outdoor air dry-bulb temperatureis warmer than space conditions, the unitcools the outdoor air to the an appropriatesupply air dry-bulb temperature. ThePackaged FAU provides cooling using anair-cooled, direct-expansion (DX)refrigeration system with scrollcompressors.

Dehumidification (Drying)The Packaged FAU dehumidifies theoutdoor air when it is more humid than therequired space target conditions. Thishelps prevent high relative humidity levelsin the space. Occasionally, the outdoor airmay need to be sub-cooled to removeexcess moisture. When necessary, the FAUreheats discharge air to meet spacecomfort conditions. The Packaged FAUrecovers energy from the cooling processto reheat the sub-cooled air as necessary.

HeatingWhen the outdoor air dry-bulb temperatureis colder than space conditions require, theFAU heats the outdoor air to meet spacetemperature requirements. The PackagedFAU has electric or gas heat optionsavailable.

System ConfigurationsDedicated outdoor air systems can deliverconditioned outdoor air in one of thefollowing ways:1. Directly to the occupied space, with the

local terminal unit controlling the spacedry-bulb temperature. See Figure O-GI-2.

2. Directly to local terminal units, whichdeliver a mixture of the conditionedoutdoor air and (conditioned)recirculated return air to the space. SeeFigure O-GI-3.

3. Directly to a single space and control thespace temperature directly. For example,this application will provide temperaturecontrol of a hotel hallway and ventilationof the adjacent rooms. See Figure O-GI-4.

Supply Air TemperatureGive careful consideration when selectingthe FAU supply air temperature. Manycurrent system designs control the fresh airunit discharge air to a “space neutral” dry-bulb condition, typically about 75°F. Atsome operating conditions, reheating theFAU supply air will add cooling load to thespace, thus requiring the local terminalunits to “re-cool” the conditioned outdoorair to meet the space setpoint. Therefore, tohelp maintain lower energy costs, usereheat only when required to maintainoccupant comfort and space relativehumidity. The Capacity Control sectiondiscusses this issue in more detail.

Airside EconomizersOften fresh air units are sized to deliver theminimum ventilation air required for thespace it serves. However, the ventilation airis typically only a portion of the spacesupply air. Airside economizing can provideup to 100% of the space supply air comefrom outdoors when outdoor airconditions are suitable for “free cooling”capability.

and reheat coils. Air leaves the evaporatorcoil saturated at the preset dew pointcondition (h2) and is reheated by thereheat condenser to the preset reheattemperature setpoint (h3). The reheatevaporator transfers energy to the reheatcondenser. A liquid solenoid valveeffectively modulates the reheatcondenser capacity. The reheat outdoorcondenser rejects surplus heat. Thereheat evaporator circuit is first on andlast off, so reheat energy is available at fulland part load conditions. For thoseconditions where the reheat condensercapacity is insufficient to meet reheatdemand, optional electric or gas heat canprovide additional reheat capacity. Sinceboth the dew point setpoint anddischarge temperature setpoint are fullyadjustable, the desired supply airconditions are maintained at all loadconditions.

Cooling or HeatingConsider Figure O-GI-6. If the outdoor airdew point or zone RH is equal to or belowthe drying setpoint, the FAU will heat orcool the outdoor air to separate andadjust cooling or heating setpoints. At t1or t3, 100% outdoor air enters the FAU.The FAU filters, and cools or heats the airas it is drawn through the evaporatorsand heating section. The air leaves theFAU at the cooling or heating setpoint (t2or t4) and equal to or below the dew pointsetpoint.

Figure O-GI-7. Refrigeration system diagram with reheat

It’s important to remember that airsideeconomizer capability can be lost ifdedicated outdoor air systems are sizedfor minimum ventilation air only. Toprovide economizer capability on adedicated outdoor air system, the terminalunits must have the ability to introduce100% outdoor air during the economizer-cooling mode. The terminal unit’s outdoorair damper should modulate between fullyclosed and fully open to allow the FAU todeliver the ventilation air design volume tothe space. The terminal unit shouldenable economizing only if the outdoordry-bulb and dew point conditions aresufficiently low to justify economizing.

Packaged FAU OperationThe Packaged FAU can use either DXcooling, condenser reheat, electric or gasheat to condition the outdoor air. The unitcontrols cooling and heating capacity instages with the exception of themodulated heat options. Cooling andheating staging will result in supply airtemperature swings. The unit controls willdeliver the desired supply air conditionson a time–based, weighted average.

Operationgeneralinformation

Establishing CapacityRequirementsDetermining the FAU capacityrequirements requires careful thought. Air-handling equipment is typically selectedbased on design sensible conditions. Sincelatent loads drive the need for the FAU,base the selection on design latentconditions. For more detailed informationon this subject, see the Trane PackagedFresh Air Unit catalog, MUA-PRC004-EN.

Cooling and DehumidificationSelection Criteria

Evaporator Design Entering ConditionsFor many climates the peak outdoor airenthalpy occurs at a time when theoutdoor dry-bulb temperature is not thehighest. Refer to the chapter on climaticdesign information in the ASHRAEHandbook of Fundamentals. The coolingand dehumidification design conditiondata is provided three ways:1. Design dry-bulb temperature with mean

coincident wet bulb temperature2. Design wet-bulb temperature with mean

coincident dry-bulb temperature3. Design dew point temperature with

mean coincident dry-bulb temperature

The design wet-bulb condition typicallyrepresents a significantly higher outdoor airenthalpy than the design dry-bulbcondition. Use the condition thatrepresents the highest enthalpy as theentering evaporator selection condition.

Evaporator Design Leaving ConditionsDue to the uncertainty of the local terminalunit’s latent capacity at part load, it isusually most straightforward to size theFAU to handle the entire latent load on thesystem, both indoor and outdoor. With thisdesign approach, the terminal units may dosome latent cooling (dehumidification)during periods of higher sensible load. Atthese times, the space will run slightly drierthan the design RH limit. This is why itmakes sense to select the FAU to limit thespace RH to a maximum allowable level forthose conditions when the terminal unitsare providing no space latent cooling.ASHRAE Standards 62.1 and 55recommend using 60% RH design limit forcomfort cooling. Using lower design limitsmay result in an unnecessary increase insystem operating energy use.

Air to Air Energy Recovery

Energy recovery can significantlyreduce HVAC system first-cost andoperating energy costs. You can userecovered energy for two purposes:1. to temper or reheat supply air for

independent control of sensible andlatent capacity, or

2. to precondition outdoor air as itenters the building for ventilation.

The Packaged FAU offers refrigerantheat recovery for reheating the supplyair. To precondition the outdoor air, usethe total energy wheel option torecover energy from building exhaust.

Controlling an Energy RecoveryVentilatorOne way to control an energy recoverydevice is to turn it on and off with theFAU system exhaust fan. In this case,the total energy wheel enables whenthe unit is in occupied mode and theexhaust fan is running. While thiscontrol method is certainly simple andeffective in some applications, it maynot provide the expected energysaving benefit, particularly when cold

air (vs. neutral air) is supplied to thebuilding.

Another more effective approach is touse the outdoor air dry-bulb to deter-mine when to energize or de-energizethe energy recovery device. See FigureAC-7 for an example of this simplifiedversion of energy recovery. In additionto being more effective from a controlstandpoint, it’s also a very simplecontrol method because the totalenergy wheel (only) enables when all ofthe following are true:• unit is in occupied mode• exhaust fan is enabled• outside air temperature is above the

upper limit setpoint (default setpoint80°F) or below the lower limit setpoint(default setpoint 45°F)

• outside air temperature is above thefrost protection setpoint (defaultsetpoint 12°F).

Set the upper limit setpoint to theanticipated return air dry-bulb tempera-ture. Set the lower limit setpoint to 10°Fless than the supply air dry-bulbsetpoint. This control strategy prevents

Figure O-SO-1. Dry-bulb control in a cold DB/dry DP

application

the energy recovery device frompotentially adding to the load seen bythe cooling and/or heating system ofthe unit, but rather utilizing the deviceonly at those times when it providestrue operating energy savings.

If using the FAU to deliver cold, dryconditioned air to the building (outdoorair is cooled to a low dew point but notreheated), use the dry-bulb controloption.

Cross LeakageAll energy wheels have some crossleakage. Therefore, do not use energywheels in applications involving toxic orhazaradous air streams. Thepercentage of cross leakage dependson the pressure differentials across thewheel section. With Trane PackagedFAU energy wheels, the exhaust airtransfer ratios are typically low (<4%).

Note: Each system (cooling, exhaust,supply air, etc.) within the unit can beredefined in the field for each of the fivesequences, if required. Also the defini-tions of any or all of the five sequencesmay be locked into the software bysimple key strokes at the human inter-face panel.

Generic Building Automation SystemModule (GBAS) OptionThe generic building automation systemmodule (GBAS) provides broad controlcapabilities for building automationsystems other than a Tracer Summitsystem. Use a field providedpotentiometer or a 0-5 vdc signal to anyof the GBAS inputs, to access thefollowing inputs and outputs listed in theparagraphs below.

GBAS analog inputsThese four analog inputs can beconfigured to any of the following:(1) occupied zone cooling(2) unoccupied zone cooling(3) uccupied zone heating(4) unoccupied zone heating(5) SA cooling setpoint(6) SA heating setpoint(7) space static pressure setpoint(8) SA static pressure setpoint

GBAS binary outputsEach of the five (5) relay outputs can bemapped to any/all of the availablediagnostics.

Demand limiting binary inputThis function is operational on units with aGBAS and reduces electricalconsumption at peak load times. Thereare two types of demand limiting, 50%and 100%. When demand limiting isneeded, mechanical cooling and heatingoperation are either partially (50%), orcompletely disabled (100%) to save

energy. The demand limit definition isuser definable at the human interfacepanel. Demand limit binary input acceptsa field supplied switch or contact closure.When the need for demand limitingdiscontinues, the unit’s cooling/heatingfunctions will (again) fully enable.

Evaporator Coil Frost ProtectionFrostat™A temperature sensor on the evaporatordetermines if the coil is getting close to afreezing condition. Mechanical coolingcapacity is shed as necessary to preventicing.

The Frostat™ system eliminates theneed for hot gas bypass and adds asuction line surface temperature sensormounted near the TXV bulb location toshut off cooling when coil frostingconditions occur. The supply fan does notshut off and will de-ice the coil. Timersprevent the compressors from rapidcycling.

Occupied/Unoccupied SwitchingThere are four ways to switch occupied/unoccupied:(1) programmable night setback sensor(2) field-supplied contact closure

(hardwired binary input to RTM)(3) Tracer Summit or other BAS (via LCI-I

with LonTalk DAC profile)(4) factory-mounted time clock

Field supplied occupied/unoccupied inputon the RTMThis input accepts a field supplied switchor contacts closure such as a time clock.

Tracer SystemThe Tracer system can control theoccupied/unoccupied status of the freshair unit.

Factory Mounted Time ClockA time clock can control theoccupied/unoccupied status of thefresh air unit.

Timed Override Activation - ICSThis function is operational whenever theunit’s RTM module board is used as thezone temperature sensor source, whichcan be set at the human interface panel.Initiate this function by pressing theoverride button on the zone sensor, toswitch the unit to the occupied mode. Unitoperation (occupied mode) during timedoverride will terminate by a signal fromTracer.

Operationsequence ofoperation

Timed Override Activation - Non-ICSThis function is active whenever the userselects the unit’s RTM module board asthe zone temperature source (can be setat the human interface panel). Initiate thisfunction by pressing the override buttonon the zone sensor, which will switch theunit to the occupied mode. Automaticcancellation of the timed override modeoccurs after three hours of operation.

Low Ambient Compressor LockoutThis function will lock out the compressorif the outdoor air temperature is belowthe low ambient compressor lock-outtemperature setpoint when using a field-installed outside air sensor. This setpointis adjustable at the human interfacepanel. Compressors will lock out whenoutdoor air temperature falls below thatselected temperature and will start againwhen the temperature rises 5°F abovethe setpoint.

Comparative Enthalpy Control ofUnoccupied Economizer OperationAn optional comparative enthalpysystem controls the economizeroperation and measures the temperatureand humidity of both return air andoutside air to determine which sourcehas lower enthalpy. This system allowstrue comparison of outdoor air and returnair enthalpy by measurement of outdoorand return air temperature and humidity.The comparative enthalpy option shouldalways be ordered with a return airdamper.

Note: If the unit does not have compara-tive enthalpy, the Packaged Fresh Air unitcompares outdoor air enthalpy with afixed reference enthalpy, set through thehuman interface panel. If ordering thereference enthalpy option, you shouldalso order a return air damper. Also,either supply air dehumidification withzone RH reference or zone dehumidifica-tion with OA RH reference must beordered to utilize either comparativeenthalpy or reference enthalpy control.

Emergency Stop InputA binary input is provided on the unit’sRTM module board for installation of a

field-provided switch or contacts toimmediately shutdown all unit functions.

Total Energy Wheel with OccupancyControlThe optional total energy wheel recoversenergy from the exhaust airstream andpreconditions the outdoor air. The totalenergy wheel enables when the unit is inoccupied mode and the exhaust fan isrunning. The wheel disables duringunoccupied mode or any time that theexhaust fan is not running. This includesthe unoccupied economizer mode whenthe wheel disables, but the exhaust fanenables. The wheel also disables via afactory-installed thermostat at any time afrost condition occurs (default setpoint12°F). This frost protection thermostatutilizes a setpoint range of -30 to 100°F.

Total Energy Wheel with Dry-BulbControlThe optional total energy wheel recoversenergy from the exhaust airstream andpreconditions the outdoor air. The totalenergy wheel enables when all of thefollowing are true:• unit is in occupied mode• exhaust fan is enabled• outside air temperature is above the

upper limit setpoint (default setpoint80°F) or below the lower limit setpoint(default setpoint 45°F)

• outside air temperature is above thefrost protection setpoint (defaultsetpoint 12°F)

Always set the upper limit setpoint to theanticipated return air dry-bulb tempera-ture. Set the lower limit setpoint to 10°Fless than the unit supply air dry-bulbsetpoint. The wheel will disable duringunoccupied mode or when the exhaustfan is not running. This includes theunoccupied economizer mode when thewheel will disable, but the exhaust fan willenable. The wheel also disables via afactory installed thermostat when a frostcondition occurs. This frost protectionthermostat utilizes a setpoint range of -30to 100°F.

Periodic Maintenance ProceduresThis section describes specificmaintenance procedures that must bepreformed as a part of the normalmaintenance program for this unit. Becertain to disconnect electrical power tothe unit before performing theseprocedures.

Note: the following coil cleaning proce-dures apply only to the outdoor condens-ers. Do not use these procedures for thereheat or evaporator coils.

Cleaning the Condenser CoilsClean the coil at least once each year ormore frequently if located in a dirtyenvironment, to help maintain proper unitoperating efficiency. High dischargepressures are a good indication that thecoil needs cleaning. Follow the detergentmanufacturer instructions as closely aspossible to avoid potential damage to thecoil.

WARNING

Hazardous chemicals!Coil cleaning agents can be eitheracidic or highly alkaline. Handlechemical carefully. Ensure properhandling by wearing goggles or faceshield, chemical resistant gloves,boots, and apron or suit as required.For personal safety refer to thecleaning agent manufacturer’smaterials safety data sheet and followall recommended safe handlingpractices. Failure to follow all safetyinstructions can cause death orserious injury.

To clean the refrigerant coil, use a softbrush and sprayer, such as a gardenpump or high pressure type, with aquality detergent; like SPREX AC, OAKITE161, OAKITE 166, or COILOX.

Note: If detergent is strongly alkaline (i.e.has a pH value greater that 8.5 ) aftermixing, an aluminum corrosion inhibitormust be added.

Coil Cleaning Procedure1. Turn off gas supply to the gas heaters

and disconnect power to the unit.2. Remove enough panels and

components from the unit to gainaccess to the coil.

3. Use a soft brush to remove loose dirtand debris form both sides of the coil.

4. Straighten coil fins with fin comb asrequired.

5. Mix the detergent with wateraccording to the manufacturersinstructions.

Observe all recommendations of thecleanser manufacturer. The coil cleansermanufacturer’s recommendations,warnings and cautions will at all timestake precedence to these instructions.

Total Energy WheelProtect the total energy wheel by using a30% filter to keep dust and dirt from theheat transfer surface. The wheel issomewhat self cleaning through itsnormal action of rotating in and out ofcounter-current airflow streams. If thewheel becomes dirty, clean it by blowingout the unit with compressed air, 20 psigmaximum.

Cleaning the Total Energy WheelTrane total energy wheels are self-cleaning with respect to dry particles.Smaller particles pass through the wheel.Larger particles land on the surface andare blown clear as the wheel turns intothe opposite airflow path. For this reason,the primary cleaning required for thetotal energy wheel is to remove the oil-based aerosol film that collect on thesurface. Such films can close off micron-sized pores at the surface of the desiccantmaterial, reducing its ability to absorb anddesorb moisture. Periodically record theair temperatures entering and leavingthe energy wheel to detect changes inperformance.

In a reasonably clean indoor environ-ment, such as a school or office building,experience shows that reductions ofairflow or loss of sensible effectivenessmay not occur for ten or more years.Where there is moderate tobacco smokeor within cooking facilities, reduction ineffectiveness can occur much faster. Inapplications experiencing high levels of

smoke, the energy transfer surfaces mayrequire cleaning as often as every sixmonths. Similar washing cycles may alsobe appropriate for industrial applications,such as welding or machining operations,involving ventilation of high levels ofsmoke or oil-based aerosols.

Proper cleaning of the energy wheelshould restore latent effectiveness tonear original performance.

Clean the total energy wheel as neces-sary to maintain optimum airflow. Whenwashing/cleaning the wheel, take carenot to allow water or detergent to comeinto contact with any of the electricalcomponents. Drain holes in the wheelrack are capped and can be removedduring cleaning. Replace caps to avoid airbypass. The single draw hole locatedupstream of the outside air filters shouldbe utilized for draining, during cleaning.Ensure no water, moisture, or excessdetergent is left in the energy wheelcompartment. Use a wet-vac vauumcleaner to remove water/moisture asneeded.

Air Filter ReplacementFilter access doors are on both sides ofthe unit. To replace filters, remove thedirty elements and install new filters(ASHRAE 30% or higher) with the filterdirectional arrows pointing toward thefan. Verify that no air bypasses the filters.

Inspecting and Cleaning the Drain PanCheck the condensate drain pan anddrain line to ensure that the condensatedrains properly at least every six monthsor as dictated by operating experience.

If evidence of standing water or conden-sate overflow exists, take steps to identifyand remedy the cause immediately.Refer to the trouble shooting section ofthis manual for possible causes andsolutions. If microbial growth is evident inthe drain pan, remove and clean itimmediately. Clean drain pans using thefollowing procedure:1. Disconnect all electrical power to the

unit.2. Don the appropriate personal

protective equipment (PPE).3. Remove all standing water.4. Use a plastic scraper or other tools to

remove any solid matter. Remove solidmatter with a vacuum device thatutilizes high efficiency particulatearrestance (HEPA) filters with aminimum efficiency of 99.97% at 0.3micron particle size.

5. Thoroughly clean the contaminatedarea(s) with an EPA-approved sanitizerspecifically designed for HVAC use.Carefully follow the sanitizermanufacturer’s instructions regardingproduct use.

6. Immediately rinse the drain panthoroughly with fresh water to preventpotential corrosion from the cleaningsolution.

environment, our customers, and the airconditioning industry. All technicians whohandle refrigerants must be certified. TheFederal Clean Air Act (Section 608) setsforth the requirements for handling,reclaiming, recovering and recycling ofcertain refrigerants and the equipmentthat is used in these service procedures.In addition, some states or municipalitiesmay have additional requirements thatmust also be adhered to for responsiblemanagement of refrigerants. Know theapplicable laws and follow them.

Also, pay specific attention to the follow-ing recommendations.• Whenever removing refrigerant from

air conditioning equipment, recover itand reuse, recycle, reprocess (reclaim),or properly destroy.

• Always determine possible refrigerantrecycling or reclaiming requirementsbefore beginning recovery. Questionsabout recovered refrigerants andacceptable refrigerant qualitystandards are addressed in ARIStandard 700.

• Use approved containment vessels andsafety standards. Comply with allapplicable transportation standardswhen shipping refrigerant containers.

• Use recycling equipment to minimizeemissions while recovering refrigerant.

• Always attempt to use methods that pullthe lowest possible system vacuumwhile recovering and condensingrefrigerant into containment.

• When leak checking, be aware of anynew leak test methods that eliminaterefrigerant as a trace gas.

• Do not use refrigerant or solvents thathave ozone depletion factors to cleansystem components and parts. Tranerecommends clean up methods usingfilters and dryers. Properly dispose ofused materials.

• Take extra care to properly maintain allservice equipment directly supportingrefrigerant service work such asgauges, hoses, vacuum pumps, andrecycling equipment.

• Stay aware of unit enhancements,conversion refrigerants, compatibleparts, and manufacturer’srecommendations that will reducerefrigerant emissions and increaseequipment operating efficiencies.Follow specific manufacturer’s

Refrigerant System

Follow these Trane recommendedprocedures to ensure refrigerantconservation and emission reduction.

WARNING

Explosion hazard and deadlygases!Never solder, braze, or weldrefrigerant lines or any unitcomponents that are aboveatmospheric pressure or whererefrigerant may be present. Alwaysremove refrigerant by following theguidelines established by the EPAFederal Clean Air Act or other stateor local codes as appropriate. Afterremoving refrigerant, use drynitrogen to bring the system back toatmospheric pressure before openingfor repairs. Refrigerant mixtures andair under pressure may becomecombustible in the presence of anignition source leading to anexplosion. Excessive heat fromsoldering, brazing, or welding withrefrigerant vapors present can formhighly toxic gases and extremelycorrosive acids. Failure to follow allproper safe refrigerant handlingpractices can cause death or seriousinjury.

Important Environmental ConcernsScientific research has shown thatcertain man-made chemicals can affectthe earth’s naturally occurringstratospheric ozone layer when releasedto the atmosphere. In particular, severalof the identified chmeicals that mayaffect the ozone layer are refrigerantsthat contain chlorine, fluorine, and carbon(HCFCs). Not all refrigerants containingthese compounds have the samepotential impact to the environment.Trane advocates the responsiblehandling of all refrigerants, includingindustry replacements for CFCs, such asHCFCs and HFCs.

Responsible Refrigerant PracticesTrane believes that responsiblerefrigerant practices are important to the

guidelines to convert existing systems.• To help reduce power generation

emissions, always attempt to improveequipment performance with improvedmaintenance and operations thatconserve energy resources.

Confined space hazard!Do not work in confined spaces wheresufficient quantities of refrigerant orother hazardous, toxic, orflammmable gas may be leaking.Refrigerant or other gases candisplace available oxygen, causingpossible asphyxiation or other serioushealth risks. Some gases may beflammable and or explosive. Evacuatethe area immediately and contact theproper rescue or response authority.Failure to take appropriateprecautions or to react properly to apotential hazard can cause death orserious injury.

WARNING

Explosion hazard!Use only dry nitrogen with a pressureregulator to pressurize units for leaktesting. Do not use acetylene, oxygen,compressed air, or any mixture of ahydrogen-containing refrigerant andair above atmostpheric pressurebecause they may become flammableand cause an explosion. Failure toproperly regulate pressure can causea violet explosion that can causedeath, serious injury, or equipment/property-only damage.

In the event of required system repair,leak test the liquid line, evaporator coil,and suction line at pressures dictated bylocal codes, and using the followingguidelines.

Maintenancemaintenanceprocedures

1. Charge enough refrigerant and drynitrogen into the system to raise thepressure to 100 psig.

2. Use a halogen leak detector, halidetorch, or soap bubbles to check forleaks. Check interconnecting pipingjoints, the evaporator coil connections,and all accessory connections.

3. If a leak is detected, release the testpressure, break the connections andreassemble it as a new joint, usingproper brazing techniques.

4. If no leak is detected, use nitrogen toincrease the test pressure to 150 psigand repeat the leak test. Also, use soapbubbles to check for leaks whennitrogen is added. Never pressurize theunit above 200 psig.

5. Retest the system to make sure newconnections are solid.

6. If a leak is suspected after the system isfully charged with refrigerant, use ahalogen leak detector, halide torch, orsoap bubbles to check for leaks.

Refrigerant EvacuationFor field evacuation, use a rotary stylevacuum pump capable of pulling avacuum of 100 microns or less.

When connecting the vacuum pump to arefrigeration system, it is important tomanifold the pump to both the high andlow side of the system. Follow the pumpmanufacturer’s directions.

CAUTIONMotor winding damage!Do not use a Meg ohm meter or applypower to the winding of a compressorwhile it is under a deep vacuum. Thismay damage the motor windings.

WARNING

Hazardous pressures!If using a heat source to raise the tankpressure when removing refrigerant,use only warm water or heat blanketsto raise the tank temperature. Do notexceed 150°F. Do not, under anycircumstances, apply direct flame toany portion of the refrigerant cylinder.Failure to follow these safetyprecautions can cause a violetexplosion that can cause death orserious injury.

Charging the Refrigerant System

CAUTION

Freezing temperatures!Do not allow liquid refrigerant tocontact skin. If it does, treat the injurysimilar to frostbite. Slowly warm theafffected area with lukewarm waterand seek immediate medicalattention. Direct contact with liquidrefrigerant may cause minor ormoderate injury.

To completely charge the system, chargegaseous refrigerant into the suction lineshrader valve with the unit running.However, make sure that somerefrigerant is present in each circuitbefore starting the compressors. Therefrigerant container should be upright sothat gaseous refrigerant is drawn off thetop.

Note: Charge each circuit with R134a.See Table M-GI-1 on page 70.

CAUTIONMotor winding damage!Do not use a megohm meter or applyvoltage greater than 50 DVC to acompressor motor winding while it isunder a deep vacuum. Voltage sparkovermay damage the motor windings.

Note: Refer to Table M-GI-1 on page 70for POE, oil type. Oil type is different forTrane compressors vs. Copelandcompressors. Failure to comply maycause premature compressor failure andvoid compressor warranty.

CAUTIONCompressor damage!Never manually or automatically pumpdown system below 7 psig. This willcause the compressor to operate in avacuum and result in compressordamage.

Periodic MaintenanceChecklists

Monthly ChecklistThe following checklist provides therecommended maintenance schedule tokeep the unit running efficiently.

WARNING

Hazardous voltage!Disconnect all electrical powerincluding remote disconnects beforeservicing unit. Follow proper lockout/tagout procedures to ensure powercannot be inadvertently energized.Failure to do so can cause death orserious injury.

WARNING!

Disconnect gas supply!Before servicing unit, FIRST turn offthe gas supply. Failure to turn off thegas supply can cause death or seriousinjury.

1. Inspect unit air filters. Clean or replaceif airflow is blocked or if filters are dirty.

2. Inspect coils for icing. Icing on the coilsmay indicate low airflow supply,restricted airflow from dirty fins,evaporator frost protection sensorproblems, or a shortage of refrigerantflowing through the coil.

3. Check the condition and tension of fanbelt. Adjust tension if belt is floppy orsqueals continually.

4. Verify the total energy wheel sealshave not become worn or damaged.Replace as necessary.

Note: Check and adjust belt tension atleast twice daily the first days of newbelt operation. Belt tension will rapidlydecrease until the belts are run in.

5. Check and record operating pressures6. Inspect and clean total energy wheel as

needed.

Semi-Annual Maintenance1. Verify the fan motor is properly aligned

and bolted tight to the motor frame.2. Lubricate fan bearings with any of the

following types grease:• NLGI N°3• Mobil - Mobilux EP3• ESSO - Beacon 3• Shell - Alvania FET3• Fina - Marson HTL3

3. With power disconnected, manuallyrotate the fan wheel to check forobstructions in the housing orinterference with fan blades or inletguide vane option. Removeobstructions and debris. Center the fanwheel if necessary.

4. Check the fan assembly sheavealignment. Tighten set screws to theirproper torques.

5. Check the total energy wheel linkagebelt tightness. Adjust as necessary.

Note: Perform this procedure monthly ifthe unit is in a coastal or corrosiveenvironment.

Annual MaintenanceCheck and tighten all set screws, bolts,locking collars and sheaves.1. Inspect, clean, and tighten all electrical

connections.2. Visually inspect the entire unit casing

for chips or corrosion. Remove rust orcorrosion and repaint surfaces.

3. Visually check for leaks in refrigerantpiping.

4. Inspect fan, motor, and control contacts.Replace badly worn or eroded contacts.

5. Inspect the thermal expansion valvesensing bulbs for cleanliness, goodcontact with the suction line, andadequate insulation from ambient air.

Note: For units with gas heat, refer tothe Reznor Installation Form RGM 401for proper maintenance procedures ofgas heaters.

System Checks

Before proceeding with technical troublecharts or controls checkout, complete thefollow system analysis:1. Measure actual supply voltage at the

compressor and at motor terminalswith the unit running. Voltage must bewithin the range listed on the motornameplate. Phase imbalance must beless than 2.0% between phases.

2. Check all wiring and connections to besure that they are intact, secure andproperly routed. The as wired systemdiagrams are provided in the unitcontrol panel.

3. Check that all fuses are installed andproperly sized.

4. Inspect air filters and coils to ensureairflow to the unit is not restricted.

5. Check the zone thermostat settings, ifapplicable.

6. Ensure the fan is rotating in the properdirection. If phasing is wrong at themain power terminal block, the fan andcompressors will not run.

7. Inspect ductwork and duct connectionsfor tightness.

8. Verify all applicable settings on thehuman interface (HI).

WARNING

Live electrical components!During installation, testing, servicing,and troubleshooting this equipment, itmay be necessary to work with liveelectrical components. Have aqualified licensed electrician or otherproperly trained individual performthese tasks. Failure to follow allelectrical safety precautions whenexposed to live electrical componentscan cause death or serious injury.

Operating ProceduresInstall pressure gauges on the dischargeand suction line access valves. When theunit has stabilized (after operatingapproximately 15 minutes at full load),record suction and discharge pressures.System malfunctions such as low airflow,line restrictions, incorrect refrigerantcharge, malfunctioning of expansionvalves, damaged compressors, and soon— will result in pressure variationswhich are outside the normal range.

Note: If phasing at the main incomingpower terminal is incorrect, switch twoof the three incoming power leads. If acompressor has been replaced and thephase is changed at the compressor, itwill run backwards and dischargepressure will be very low. To resolveincorrect compressor wire phasing,change phasing at the compressor.

It is important that pressures be mea-sured under stable and constant condi-tions in order for the readings to beuseful.

Voltage ImbalanceVoltage imbalance on three-phase

systems can cause motor overheatingand premature failure. Maximumallowable imbalance is 2.0% and thereadings used to determine it must bemeasured at the compressor terminals.

Voltage imbalance is defined as 100times the sum of the division of the threevoltages from the average voltage. If, forexample, the three measured voltagesare 221, 230, 227, the average would be:

(221+230+227) = 226 volts 3

The percentage of voltage imbalance isthen:

100*(226-221) = 2.2% 226

In this example, 2.2% imbalance of morethan 2.0% exists, be sure to check thevoltage at the unit disconnect andterminal block switch. If an imbalance atthe unit disconnect switch does notexceed 2.0%, the imbalance is caused byfaulty wiring within the unit. Be sure toconduct a thorough inspection of the unitelectrical wiring connections to locate thefault, and make any repairs necessary.
