Thoroughly check out the system before operation. Complete the inspections and instructions listed below to prepare a unit for installation. See Table 1 for unit physical data.
HORIZONTAL UNITS
Horizontal units are designed for indoor installation only. Be sure to allow adequate space around the unit for installation and servicing. See Fig. 2 for overall unit dimensions.
VERTICAL UNITS
Vertical units are designed for indoor installations only. Vertical units are typically installed in a floor-level closet or a small mechanical room, Be sure to allow adequate space around the unit for installation and servicing. See Fig. 3 for overall unit dimensions.
CAUTION
EQUIPMENT DAMAGE HAZARD
To avoid equipment damage, do not use these units as a source of heating or cooling during the construction process. The mechanical components and filters used in these units quickly become clogged with construction dirt and debris which may cause system damage.
INSTALLATION GUIDELINES (ALL UNITS)
- Be sure the location chosen for unit installation provides ambient temperatures maintained above freezing.
- Be sure the installation location is isolated from sleeping areas, private offices and other acoustically sensitive spaces.
- Be sure unit is mounted at a height sufficient to provide an adequate slope of the condensate lines. If an appropriate slope cannot be achieved, a field-supplied condensate pump may be required.
- On horizontal units, allow adequate room below the unit for condensate drain trap and do not locate the unit above supply piping.
- Provide sufficient space for duct connection. Do not allow the weight of the ductwork to rest on the unit.
- Provide adequate clearance for filter replacement and drain pan cleaning. Do not allow piping, conduit, etc. to block filter access. See Fig. 4.
- Provide sufficient access to allow maintenance and servicing of the blower and blower motor, compressor, refrigerant circuit, controls, and coils. See Fig. 4.
- For units with free return (non-ducted), provide adequate space for proper return airflow. For units installed in closets or mechanical rooms, provide sufficient return grill area for proper airflow.
- Provide ready access to water valves and fittings, and screwdriver access to unit side panels, discharge collar, and all electrical connections.
- Where access to side panels is limited, pre-removal of the control box side mounting screws may be necessary for future servicing.
- For units that are installed in enclosed spaces (such as furred in closets or behind finished ceilings), provide access panels
to allow for the installation, maintenance, service, and removal of the unit.
IMPORTANT: It is the installing contractor's responsibility to ensure that all equipment is installed with proper access for service, start-up, installation of accessories, configuration of control and other components, and equipment removal in accordance with Carrier's recommended service clearances and installation instructions. Please refer to the Carrier Commercial WSHP Warranty Statement (document number 04-570008-01) for details on warranty exclusions regarding equipment, access, removal and clearances.
Step 2 — Check Unit
Upon receipt of equipment at the jobsite, inspect the carton or crating of each unit, and inspect each unit for damage on both the interior and exterior. Note any damage and contact your local equipment sales office.
CAUTION
EQUIPMENT DAMAGE HAZARD
DO NOT store or install units in corrosive environments or in locations subject to temperature or humidity extremes (e.g., at-tics, garages, rooftops, etc.). Corrosive conditions and high temperature or humidity can significantly reduce performance, reliability, and service life. Always move units in an upright position. Tilting units on their sides may cause equipment damage.
INSPECT UNIT
To prepare the unit for installation, complete the procedures listed below:
- Verify the correct unit has been received. Check the unit capacity (tonnage), voltage, orientation, and configuration.

If the unit is located in a confined space such as a closet, provisions must be made for return air to freely enter the space. See minimum service clearances in Fig. 6.
Horizontal units condensate drains are not internally trapped. Allow room below the unit base for horizontal models for an adequate condensate trap.
These units are not approved for outdoor installation; therefore, they must be installed inside the structure being conditioned. Do not locate units in areas that are subject to freezing. Units must be installed in conditioned space that is not subject to extremes of temperature or humidity to avoid cabinet sweating and/or equipment damage.
PROTECTION
IMPORTANT: Care must be taken to prevent the introduction of dust, pain, debris, or chemicals into the unit, which can cause damage to the unit, delay start-up, and may impact unit longevity.
Do not use units for temporary heating, air conditioning or ventilation during construction or remodeling, especially when plastering, sanding or painting or when replacing carpet or flooring. Dust and debris can clog the coil and blower. Chemical vapors can lead to formicary corrosion and damage the coil. Ensure adequate ventilation and debris collection during construction or remodeling.
Once the units are properly positioned on the jobsite, cover them with either a shipping carton, vinyl film, or an equivalent protective covering. Cap open ends of pipes stored on the jobsite. This precaution is especially important in areas where painting, plastering, or spraying of fireproof material, etc. is not yet complete. Foreign material that accumulates within the units can prevent proper start-up and require costly clean-up operations. Before installing any of the system components, be sure to examine each pipe, fitting, and valve, and remove any dirt or foreign material found in or on these components.
Step 4 — Mount the Unit
DUCT FLANGES
The unit heat pumps feature foldout return and supply air duct flanges. These fold-out flanges allow the heat pumps to more easily fit through doorways and other tight spaces, and also prevent damage in shipping and handling.
It is recommended that all fold-out flanges be folded out once the heat pump is installed to ensure that return and supply airflow is not obstructed. These flanges can be easily folded using standard or duckbill pliers. Once folded out these flanges can be used to support light ductwork loads. See Fig. 5.

HORIZONTAL UNITS
While horizontal units may be installed on any level surface strong enough to hold their weight, they are typically suspended above a ceiling by threaded rods. All horizontal units come with a Hanging Bracket Kit to facilitate suspended unit mounting. Hanging brackets are installed as shown in Fig. 6.

Fig. 6 — Hanging Bracket Locations
The hanging bracket kit includes the following:
• (5) brackets
• (5) rubber vibration isolators
• (8) screws no. 10 x 1/2 in.
• (10) bolts 1/4 - 28 x 1/2 in. hex bolt (not used on this model)
The following additional materials are needed and must be field supplied:
- threaded rod (3/8 in. maximum diameter)
• h e x n u t s - washers (1-3/4 in. minimum O.D.)
Hanging Bracket Installation
- Remove and discard factory-provided screws from location where hanging brackets will be installed. (see Fig. 7).

natural_image
Technical line drawing of a mechanical assembly with a spring-loaded component and a nut, mounted on a base (no text or symbols)Fig. 9 — Hanging the Unit
IMPORTANT: Units larger than six tons include an integral angle iron frame with mounting holes present.
Horizontal units installed above the ceiling must conform to all local codes. An auxiliary drain pan, if required by code, should be at least 4 in. larger than the bottom of the heat pump.
Plumbing connected to the heat pump must not come in direct contact with joists, trusses, walls, etc. Some applications require an attic floor installation of the horizontal unit. In this case the unit should be set in a full size secondary drain pan on top of a vibration absorbing mesh.
The secondary drain pan prevents possible condensate overflow or water leakage damage to the ceiling. The secondary drain pan is usually placed on a plywood base isolated from the ceiling joists by additional layers of vibration absorbing mesh. In both cases, a 3/4 in. drain connected to this secondary pan should be run to an eave at a location that will be noticeable.
CAUTION
If the unit is located in a crawl space, the bottom of the unit must be at least 4-in. above grade to prevent flooding of the electrical parts due to heavy rains.
VERTICAL UNITS
Vertical units should be mounted level on a vibration absorbing pad slightly larger than the unit base in order to minimize vibration transmission from the unit to the building structure (see Fig. 10). It is generally not necessary to anchor the unit unless required by local code.

Fig. 10 — Mounting Vertical Units
All major service access for the vertical models is from the front side of the unit. When installing the unit in a confined space such as a closet, ensure the service panel screws are accessible, that the filter can be replaced without damage and that water and electrical connections are accessible. For models with a unit-mounted disconnect switch, make sure the switch can be easily seen and operated.
To reduce sound transmission, units should be installed using flexible electrical conduit and hose kits. Care should be taken to ensure that no part of the unit cabinet is touching part of the building structure. For ducted return applications, a flexible duct connection should be used. Mount the unit on a vibration absorption pad slightly larger than the entire base to minimize vibration transmission. It is not necessary to mount the unit on the floor.
Step 5 — Check Duct System
All units are provided with a return air duct flange and supply air duct connections. Refer to unit dimensional drawings (Fig. 2 and 3) for physical dimensions of the collar and flange.
A flexible connector is recommended for supply and return air duct connections on metal duct systems. All metal ducting should be insulated with a minimum of 1 in. duct insulation to avoid heat loss or gain and prevent condensate from forming during the cooling operation. Application of the unit to uninsulated ductwork is not recommended as the unit's performance will be adversely affected.
CAUTION
Do not connect discharge ducts directly to the blower outlet. The factory filter rack should be left in place on a free return system.
If the unit will be installed in a new installation with new ductwork, the installation should be designed using current ASHRAE (American Society of Heating, Refrigerating, and Air-Conditioning Engineers) procedures for duct sizing. If the unit will be connected to an existing duct system, a check should be made to assure that the duct system has the capacity to handle the air required for the unit application. If the duct system is too small, larger ductwork must be installed. Be certain to check for existing leaks and repair. The duct system and all diffusers should be sized to handle the designed airflow quietly. To maximize sound attenuation of the unit blower, the supply and return air plenums should be insulated. There should be no direct straight air path through the air grille into the heat pump. The return air inlet to the heat pump must have at least one 90-degree turned away from the space return air grille. If air noise or excessive airflow are a problem, the blower speed can be changed to a lower speed to reduce airflow.
HORIZONTAL SUPPLY AIR CONFIGURATION CONVERSION
The supply air location can be field converted from end blow (back discharge) to straight through or vice-versa.
NOTE: Blower configuration changes should be done prior to unit being installed in the final location.
To convert the supply air direction, follow the steps below (Fig. 11-13):
-
If the unit is connected to power, shut Off the unit and disconnect switch or circuit breaker.
-
Locate the motor access panel (A). Remove the three screws at top and the three screws at the bottom of the panel. Remove the access panel and place it aside.
-
Be careful not to damage the refrigerant coils or any other internal unit components.
-
Locate blower panel (B). Remove the three screws from top and the three screws from bottom of the panel. Leave the blower panel in place on the base pan.
-
Locate access panel corner post (C). Remove the four screws from top and the four screws from the bottom. Remove the corner post and set it aside.
-
Locate blower support bracket (D). Remove the one screw and set it aside.
-
Move blower panel (B) with blower to desired location, rotating it 180°. (See Fig. 13.) The motor power and control harness can be unplugged to facilitate blower relocation.
-
Reinstall access panel corner post (C) using the eight screws previously removed.
-
Fasten blower panel (B) using the six screws previously removed.
-
Reinstall and fasten blower support bracket (D) using the one screw previously removed.
-
Reattach the motor power and control harness if disconnected earlier.
-
Reinstall and fasten motor access panel (A) using the six screws previously removed.

Step 6 — Install Condensate Drain
All units include a condensate drain pan under the evaporator coil. Units with waterside economizer have an additional condensate drain pan under the economizer coil.
HORIZONTAL UNITS
A drain line must be connected to each drain pain and pitched away from the unit a minimum of 1/8 in. per foot to allow the condensate to flow away from the unit.
This connection must be in conformance with local plumbing codes. A trap must be installed in the condensate line to ensure free condensate flow. (Heat pumps are not internally trapped.) A vertical air vent is sometimes required to avoid air pockets. See Fig. 14.

Fig. 14 — Condensate Drain (Horizontal Units)
The depth of the trap depends on the amount of positive or negative pressure on the drain pan. A second trap must not be included. The horizontal unit should be pitched approximately 1/4 in. towards the drain in both directions, to facilitate condensate removal. See Fig. 15.
VERTICAL UNITS
Vertical configuration units are internally trapped from the factory. A second trap must NOT be included.
Step 7 — Pipe Connections
All WSHP units use female pipe thread fittings for water connections. Refer to Fig. 2 and 3 for connection sizes. When making piping connections, consider the following:
- Use a backup wrench when making screw connections to unit to prevent internal damage to piping.
- Insulation may be required on piping to avoid condensation in the case where fluid in loop piping operates at temperatures below dew point of adjacent air.
- Flexible hoses should be used between the unit and the rigid system to avoid possible vibration.
- Supply and return piping must be as large as the unit connections on the heat pump. Never use flexible hoses of a smaller inside diameter than that of the water connections on the unit.
-
Piping systems that contain steel pipes or fittings may be subject to galvanic corrosion. Dielectric fittings may be used to isolate the steel parts of the system to avoid galvanic corrosion.
-
Teflon tape thread sealant is recommended when connecting water piping connections to the units to ensure against leaks and possible heat exchanger fouling.
- Balancing valve and supply/return manual isolation valves must be provided for unit isolation and water flow balancing.
- Ensure unit receives the appropriate water flow during operation. To verify the correct water flow, utilize pressure/temperature ports positioned at the supply and return water lines. Refer to Fig. 35 and 36 for water pressure drop across water to refrigerant heat exchanger.
- Avoid all plastic to metal threaded fittings due to the potential to leak. Use a flange fitted substitute.
- Route piping to avoid service access areas to unit.
- Flush the piping system prior to operation to remove dirt and foreign materials from the system.

WATER QUALITY GUIDELINES
Units are supplied with either a copper or optional cupronickel coaxial water coil. Copper is adequate for ground water that is not high in mineral content.
Carrier recommends proper testing to assure the well water quality is suitable for use with water source equipment. In conditions anticipating moderate scale formation or in brackish water a cupronickel heat exchanger is recommended. Additional considerations are described below.
A secondary heat exchanger (plate frame between the unit and the open cooling tower or open loop ground water system) may also be used. It is imperative that all air is eliminated from the closed loop side of the heat exchanger to prevent condenser fouling.
In all applications, the quality of the water circulated through the heat exchanger must fall within the ranges listed in Table 2, Water Quality Guidelines. Consult a local water treatment firm, independent testing facility, or local water authority for specific recommendations to maintain water quality within the published limits
CAUTION
Water piping exposed to extreme, low ambient temperatures is subject to freezing.

NOTE(S):
a. Heat exchanger materials considered are copper, cupronickel, 304 SS (stainless steel), 316 SS, titanium.
b. Closed recirculating system is identified by a closed pressurized piping system.
c. Recirculating open wells should observe the open recirculating design considerations.
d. If the concentration of these corrosives exceeds the maximum allowable level, then the potential for serious corrosion problems exists.
Sulfides in the water quickly oxidize when exposed to air, requiring that no agitation occur as the sample is taken. Unless tested immediately at the site, the sample will require stabilization with a few drops of one Molar zinc acetate solution, allowing accurate sulfide determination up to 24 hours after sampling. A low pH and high alkalinity cause system problems, even when both values are within ranges shown. The term pH refers to the acidity, basicity, or neutrality of the water supply. Below 7.0, the water is considered to be acidic. Above 7.0, water is considered to be basic. Neutral water registers a pH of 7.0.
To convert ppm to grains per gallon, divide by 17. Hardness in mg/l is equivalent to ppm.

INSTALLING SUPPLY AND RETURN HOSE KIT
Follow these piping guidelines:
- Install a drain valve at the base of each supply and return riser to facilitate system flushing.
- Install shutoff/balancing valves and unions at each unit to permit unit removal for servicing.
- Place strainers at the inlet of each system circulating pump.
- Select the proper hose length to allow slack between connection points. Hoses may vary in length by +2% to -4% under pressure.
- Do not exceed the minimum bend radius for the hose selected. Refer to Table 3. Exceeding the minimum bend radius may cause the hose to collapse, which reduces water flow rate. Install an angle adapter to avoid sharp bends in the hose when the radius falls below the required minimum.
NOTE: Piping must comply with all applicable codes.
Table 3 — Metal Hose Minimum Bend Radii
| HOSE DIAMETER (in.) | MINIMUM BEND RADII (in.) |
| 1/2 | 3-9/16 |
| 3/4 | 3-9/16 |
| 1 | 4-3/8 |
Insulation is not required on loop water piping except where the piping runs through unheated areas or outside the building or when the loop water temperature is below the minimum expected dew point of the pipe ambient. Insulation is required if loop water temperature drops below the dew point.
IMPORTANT: Do not bend or kink supply lines or hoses.
Pipe joint compound is not necessary when Teflon threaded tape is pre-applied to hose assemblies or when flared-end connections are used. If pipe joint compound is preferred, use compound only in small amounts on the male pipe threads of the fitting adapters. Prevent sealant from reaching the flared surfaces of the joint.
NOTE: When anti-freeze is used in the loop, assure that it is compatible with Teflon tape or pipe joint compound employed.
Maximum allowable torque for brass fittings is 30 ft-lb. If a torque wrench is not available, tighten finger-tight plus one quarter turn. Tighten steel fittings as necessary.
Optional pressure-rated hose assemblies designed specifically for use with Carrier units are available. Similar hoses can be obtained from alternate suppliers. Supply and return hoses are fitted with swivel-joint fittings at one end to prevent kinking during installation.
CAUTION
Backup wrench is required when tightening water connections to prevent water line damage. Failure to use a backup wrench could result in equipment damage.
Male adapters secure hose assemblies to the unit and risers. Install hose assemblies properly and check them regularly to avoid system failure and reduced service life. See Fig. 16.

Fig. 16 — Supply/Return Hose Kit
UNITS WITH BOILERLESS HEAT CONTROL
Units with Boilerless Heat Control include entering water temperature sensor that is factory installed on the incoming water piping.
Refer to see Step 9 — “Configure Unit Control Components” on page 21 for boilerless control configuration for units with Option Card (units without factory installed TruVu™ controller).
Refer to the TruVu ^TM controller section of this manual for configuring the entering water temperature set point for boilerless control operation for units with TruVu ^TM controller.
UNITS WITH HOT WATER GENERATOR OPTION (HEAT RECOVERY PACKAGE/DESUPERHEATER)
The hot water generator (HWG) is a factory-installed option capable of providing hot water in the range of 110 to 120°F as a supplemental domestic hot water source. The HWG is a desuperheater that uses recovered heat from the hot discharge gas leaving the compressor. Included with the HWG is a vented, double wall coil, circulating pump, high water temperature limit switch (set at 120°F), discharge gas temperature limit switch, and an ON/OFF switch with built-in circuit breaker. The generator operates independently and is not factory wired to the unit controller.
NOTE: The HWG will reduce the amount of heat available to the space and it is recommended to deactivate the HWG in heating mode via the ON/OFF switch.
Water Tank Preparation
- Turn off electrical or fuel supply to the water heater.
- Attach garden hose to water tank drain connection and run other end of hose outdoors or to an open drain.
- Close cold water inlet valve to water heater tank.
- Drain tank by opening drain valve on the bottom of the tank, then open pressure relief valve or hot water faucet.
- Once drained the tank should be flushed with cold water until the water leaving the drain hose is clear and free of sediment.
- Close all valves and remove the drain hose.
- Install HWG water piping. All hot water piping should be a minimum of 3/8 in. OD copper tube to a maximum distance of fifteen feet. For distances beyond fifteen feet but not exceeding sixty feet use 1/2 in. copper tube. Separately insulate all exposed surface of both connecting water lines with 3/8 in. wall closed cell insulation. Install isolation valves on supply and return to the hot water generator. See Fig. 17.
NOTE: Diagram is for illustration purposes only. Ensure access to heat pump is not restricted. All plumbing and piping connections must comply with local plumbing codes.

Fig. 17 — Typical Hot Water Generator Installation
Water Tank Refill
- Open the cold water supply to the tank.
- Open a hot water faucet to vent air from the system until water flows from the faucet, then close.
- Depress the hot water tank pressure relief valve handle to ensure there is no air remaining in the tank.
- Carefully inspect all plumbing for water leaks. Correct as required.
- Purge all air from HWG by depressing the Schrader valve on the HR unit. Allow all air to bleed out until water appears at the valve.
- Before restoring the power or fuel supply to the water heater, adjust the temperature setting on the tank thermostat(s) to ensure maximum utilization of heat available from the refrigeration system and to conserve the most energy. On tanks with thermostats and both upper and lower elements, the lower element should be turned down to 100°F, while the upper element should be adjusted to 120°F. Depending upon the specific needs of the customer, you may need to adjust the upper element differently. On tanks with a single thermostat, lower the thermostat setting to 120°F or the "LOW" position. After thermostat adjustments are completed, replace access cover and restore electrical or fuel supply to water heater.
INITIAL START-UP
- Turn on the heat pump. The circulating pump should not run if the compressor is not running.
-
Turn HWG switch to the "ON" position. The pump will operate if entering water temperature to HWG is below 120°F.
-
Ensure the temperature difference between the water entering and leaving the heat recovery is 5 to 15°F.
- Allow the unit to operate for 20 to 30 minutes to ensure it is functioning properly. The pump should shut off when the water temperature entering the generator reaches 120^ F.
UNITS WITH WATERSIDE ECONOMIZER
The optional waterside economizer (pre-cooling coil) is factory installed and piped internally, in series with the condenser water circuit (see Fig. 18). A diverting 3-way motorized valve, entering water temperature sensor, drain pan with condensate overflow switch, and factory controls are included with the option.
The remote bulb (EWT sensor) is shipped internal to the unit and requires to be installed on straight incoming water line to the unit/3-way diverting valve (see Fig. 18). Care should be taken not to dent the bulb or mis-calibration may occur. The remote sensing bulb must be installed on a straight section of uninsulated pipe that provides a good measurement of the entering water temperature. It is recommended to insulate the sensing bulb after installation for better water temperature sensing.
When unit is shipped with economizer option, the economizer drain must be connected to a separate trap. Follow the same steps for the economizer drain as described for evaporator condensate drain Step 6 — “Install Condensate Drain” on page 13.
Refer to Step 9 — “Configure Unit Control Components” on page 21 for Economizer configuration for units with Option Card (units without factory installed TruVu™ controller).
Refer to the TruVu controller section of this manual for configuring the entering water temperature set point for economizer operation for units with TruVu DDC controller.
See Table 1 for connection sizes. Refer to the unit's performance report for economizer performance and additional water and air pressure drop.

Step 8 — Wire Field Power Supply
See Fig. 26-34 for typical wiring diagrams. See Tables 4-9 for additional electrical data. Please refer to the unit wiring diagram attached to the control panel for field installation.
WARNING
To avoid possible injury or death due to electrical shock, open the power supply disconnect switch and secure it in an open position during installation.
CAUTION
All power connections must be properly torqued to avoid the risk of overheating.
HIGH VOLTAGE WIRING
All field-installed wiring must comply with the National Electric Code as well as all applicable local codes. Refer to the unit electrical data on the unit nameplate for wire and branch circuit protection sizing. Supply power voltage and phasing should match the required voltage and phasing shown on the unit nameplate. Operating the unit below the minimum voltage, above the maximum voltage or with incorrect phasing can result in poor system performance or damage to the heat pump. All field wiring should be installed by qualified and trained personnel. Refer to the unit wiring diagram for field connection requirements.
Power wiring to the heat pump should be enclosed in flexible conduit to minimize the transmission of vibration from the unit cabinet to the building.
For heat pumps with unit mounted disconnect switches, field power should be connected to the marked terminals on the disconnect switch. For heat pumps without unit-mounted disconnect switches (except units with dual power supply), power is connected to the line (L) side of the compressor contactor and the ground lug in the unit electrical box.
For units with the 65 kA SCCR option, the power supply must be connected to the fuse block located in a dedicated fuse box.
460-v heat pumps with constant airflow motors require five power supply wires: the standard three high-voltage wires, the ground wire, and a neutral wire. These units employ a 265-v motor that requires power from one phase of the 460-v supply and the neutral wire.
CAUTION
The power supply ground wire should never be used as a neutral wire.
Transformer Settings for 208/230-v Units
As factory built, all 208/230-v units are wired for 230-v operation. For jobsites with a 208-v power supply, the primary leads on the unit transformer will need to be changed from 230-v to 208-v. Refer to the unit wiring diagram for details.
ELECTRIC HEATER
Factory-installed internal electric heater is available for selection with units. Two power supplies are required when electric heater is provided with the unit. The power supply for the electric heater (located in the electric heater package control box) provides power for the heater elements, the blower motor, and the control circuit for the unit. The power supply for the unit provides power for the compressor. This allows the electric heaters to continue to operate along with the blower motor in the case of unit compressor and/or compressor power supply failure. See data plates for minimum circuit capacities and maximum fuse/breaker sizing. See Tables 4-9 for additional electrical data.

LOW VOLTAGE, CONTROL WIRING
WARNING
To avoid possible injury or death due to electrical shock, open the power supply disconnect switch and secure it in an open position during installation.
CAUTION
Never route control wiring through the same conduit as power supply wiring. Electrical noise and transients from the power wiring can cause communication issues or damage to the control wiring and connected control components.
Units without factory installed TruVu DDC controller can be controlled using the included thermostat inputs (R, O, Y1, C, G) for single stage heat pump thermostat or field-installed DDC (Direct Digital Controls) controls. Note that the reversing valve on the unit is energized when the unit is in the cooling mode. See Fig. 19 for typical thermostat connections.

Fig. 19 — Typical Thermostat Connections
Control wiring for units with constant airflow ECM blower motors is routed through a constant airflow ECM interface board. Thermostat input wiring is connected to the 10-pin screw type terminal block on the lower center portion of the ECM Interface Board. In addition to providing a connecting point for thermostat wiring, the interface board also translates thermostat inputs into control commands for the Electronic Commutated Motor (ECM) DC fan motor and displays an LED indication of operating status. Refer to the unit wiring diagrams for complete details. See Fig. 20. The thermostat connections and their functions are as follows.

THERMOSTAT AND DDC SENSORS
Thermostats or DDC space sensors should be located on an interior wall away from supply ducts. Avoid locations subject to direct sunlight or drafts, or external walls. Thermostat wiring should be 18 AWG (American Wire Gauge). Refer to the installation instructions for the thermostat for further details.
IMPORTANT: Exceptionally long runs of thermostat wire should be avoided to prevent voltage drops in the control circuit.
ADDITIONAL CONTROLS OPTIONS WIRING
Hot Gas Reheat Control
Units with hot gas reheat (HGRH) will include an additional H terminal on the input terminal board for dehumidification control. To enable a call for dehumidification, a 24-v signal must be sent to the H terminal with no voltage applied to the Y1 or O terminals. Any call for cooling (Y1 and O) will override the dehumidification call.
Pump Relay
Units with selected Pump Relay option can be field wired to enable a field provided loop pump or solenoid valve when there is a call for compressor operation. Represented as AUX relay on Wiring Diagrams (see Fig. 26-34).
Energy Management Switch
Units with selected energy management switch (EMS) can be field wired to disable unit operation when a 24-v signal is removed from the relay. Removing the 24-v signal causes the relay to open, which cuts 24-v power to the unit control circuit. All unit components will be disabled at when the EMS is deactivated. Represented as EMS relay on Wiring Diagrams (see Fig. 26-34).
Alarm Output (All Units)
If the unit is being connected to a thermostat or DDC control with an alarm indicator, this connection is made at the unit malfunction output on the Unit Protection Module (UPM). See the Unit Protection Module heading in Step 9 — “Configure Unit Control Components” on page 21 section for further details.
TruVu DDC Controller
TruVu is a factory installed DDC control that requires the use of Carrier ZS or non-communicating sensors or the Carrier TruVu Equipment touch interface for space temperature sensing. TruVu DDC is not compatible with thermostats.
All units equipped with TruVu DDC controller include factory-installed EWT, LWT, SAT, and RAT sensors. Additional field-installed sensors should be provided and wired as needed. Please refer to the Operation section of the Installation, Operation, and Maintenance (IOM) manual for available inputs for optional field-installed components.
IMPORTANT: Relocate the factory installed supply air temperature sensor (SAT) when using a field-installed electric heater. The Supply Air Temperature (SAT) sensor should be downstream of any external heating device for effective control.
All TruVu wiring is completed at the TruVu control board. See Fig. 34 for details.
Control Transformer
All units without factory installed TruVu DDC include 75VA transformer. All units with TruVu™ DDC controller include a 100VA transformer.
CAUTION
Exceeding the transformer capacity can result in low control voltage, erratic unit operation or damage to the heat pump.
The VA capacity of the transformer should be considered when applying low voltage accessories, such as shut off valves, thermostats, or DDC controls. Table 10 shows the VA draw of factory-mounted components in the low voltage heat pump.
The total VA draw of the heat pump internal components plus any attached accessories must be lower than the VA capacity of the unit control transformer.

WARNING
To avoid possible injury or death due to electrical shock, open the power supply disconnect switch and secure it in an open position during installation.
UNIT PROTECTION MODULE (UPM)
The Unit Protection Module (UPM) as shown in Fig. 21 is a printed circuit board (PCB) included in all units, that interfaces with the thermostat or the digital direct controller.
The main purpose of this device is to protect the compressors by monitoring the different states of switches and sensors of each refrigerant circuit. This device provides time delays and protects the unit against freezing of the water and refrigerant heat exchangers as well as condensate overflow when the appropriate sensors are installed.

UPM Standard Safeties and Alarms
HI AND LOW REFRIGERANT PRESSURE PROTECTION
- High-pressure switch located in the refrigerant discharge line and wired across the HPC (High-Pressure Switch Connection) terminals on the UPM.
- Low-pressure switch located in the unit refrigerant suction line and wired across the LPC (Low-Pressure Switch Connection) terminals (LPC1 and LPC2) on the UPM.
WATER COIL FREEZE PROTECTION
Waterside freeze protection sensor, mounted close to condensing water coil, monitors refrigerant temperature between condensing water coil and thermal expansion valve (see Fig. 22.)
If temperature drops below or remains at freeze limit trip for 120 seconds, the controller will shut down the compressor and enter into a soft-lockout condition. The default freeze limit trip is 25^ F; however, this can be changed to 15^ F by flipping DIP switch SW1 (see Fig. 21, Item 10, Fig. 24, and Table 11).
NOTE: The UPM Board Dry Contacts are Normally Open (NO).
IMPORTANT: The freeze sensor will not guard against the loss of water. A flow switch is recommended to prevent the unit from running if water flow is lost or reduced.
IMPORTANT: If the unit is employing a fresh water system (no anti-freeze protection), it is extremely important to have the Freeze 1 set to 25°F (DIP Switch SW1 set to Off) in order to shut down the unit at the appropriate leaving water temperature and protect your heat pump from freezing if a freeze sensor is included.
AIR COIL FREEZE PROTECTION
Air coil freeze protection sensor, mounted between the thermal expansion device and the evaporator, monitors refrigerant temperature between the evaporator coil and thermal expansion valve (see Fig. 23). If temperature drops below or remains at the freeze limit trip for 30 seconds, the controller will shut down the compressor
and enter into a soft-lockout condition. The default freeze limit trip is 25°F, this can be changed to 15°F by flipping DIP switch SW1 (see Fig. 21, Item 10, Fig. 24, and Table 11.)

HIGH CONDENSATE LEVEL SHUTDOWN
The condensate overflow protection sensor is located in the drain pan of the unit and connected to the "COND" terminal on the UPM board (see Fig. 21, item 8).
Anti-Short Cycle Timer
Five minute delay on break timer to prevent compressor short cycling.
Random Start Time Delay
Each controller has an unique random start delay ranging from 270 to 300 seconds on initial power up to reduce the chance of multiple units simultaneously starting at the same time after power up or after a power interruption, in order to avoid creating a large electrical spike.
Low-Pressure Bypass Timer
If the compressor is running and the low pressure switch opens, the controller will keep the compressor On for 120 seconds. After two minutes if the low-pressure switch remains open, the controllers will shut down the compressor and enter a soft lockout. The compressor will not be energized until the low-pressure switch closes and the anti-short cycle time delay expires. If the low-pressure switch opens two or four times in one hour, the unit will enter a hard lockout. In order to exit hard lockout power to the unit would need to be reset. The reset signal is either a Y or R signal depending on the position of the DIP switch as shown in Table 11. If the reset is set to R, the board must be manually powered off and powered back on to exit the hard lock out.
Brownout/Surge/Power Interruption Protection
The brownout protection in the UPM board will shut down the compressor if the incoming power falls below 18 vac. The compressor will remain Off until the voltage is above 18 vac and Anti-Short Cycle Timer (300 seconds) times out. The unit will not go into a hard lockout.
Alarm Output
Alarm output is Normally Open (NO) dry contact. If pulse is selected the alarm output will be pulsed. The fault output will depend on the DIP switch setting for "Alarm". If it is set to "CONST", a constant signal will be produced to indicate a fault has occurred and the unit re-quires inspection to determine the type of fault. If it is set to "PULSE" a pulse signal is produced and a fault code is detected by a remote device indicating the fault. (For blink code explanation, see Table 12). The remote device must have a analog input with malfunction detection capability to interpret PULSE signal when the UPM board is set to "PULSE".
IMPORTANT: If 24 vac output is needed R must be wired to ALR-COM terminal; 24 vac will be available to the ALR-OUT terminal when the unit is in the alarm condition.
Test Mode
A test DIP switch is provided to reduce all time delays settings to 10 seconds during troubleshooting or verification of unit operation.
IMPORTANT: Operation of unit in test mode can lead to accelerated wear and premature failure of components. The "TEST" switch must be set back to "NO" after troubleshooting/servicing.
INTELLIGENT ALARM RESET
If a fault condition is initiated, the five minute delay on break time period is initiated and the unit will restart after these delays expire. During this period the fault LED will indicate the cause of the fault. If the fault condition still exists or occurs two or four times (depending on "2" or "4" settings for Lockout DIP Switch) before 60 minutes, the unit will go into a hard lockout and requires a manual lockout reset. See Fig. 24.
HARD LOCKOUT RESET
A hard lockout can be reset by turning the unit thermostat off and then back on when the "RESET" DIP switch is set to "Y" or by shutting off unit power at the circuit breaker when the "RESET" DIP switch is set to "R".
NOTE: The blower motor will remain active during a lockout condition.

OPTION CARD
Units ordered with the water side economizer or hot gas reheat factory installed options and no factory installed DDC controller will include the Option Card as standard (see Fig. 25).
The card has three primary functions:
"Boilerless" Electric Heat Control
Boilerless heat control is a means to control an auxiliary electric heater on units that are connected to a water loop without a reliable heat injection source. The option card features a potentiometer to configure a water loop heat setpoint (Item 2, Fig. 25, Heat Set Point Potentiometer). When the water loop (EWT) drops below the specified setpoint and there is a call for heating the compressor will be disabled and the option card sends a 24-v output to enable the electric heater.
On/Off Hot Gas Reheat Control
Hot gas reheat control is an active means of dehumidification control. HGRH is enabled when the space temperature is satisfied but the space humidity is above the desired setpoint. The Option card energizes the fan, reversing valve, HGRH valve and compressor.
Water Side Economizer Control
Water side economizer control allows for cooling directly with the source water when the source water temperature is below a configurable setpoint. The expansion card features a potentiometer to configure a water loop cool setpoint (Item 1, Fig. 25, Cool Set Point Potentiometer). When the water loop drops below the specified setpoint and there is a call for cooling the WSE diverting valve will divert water through the water side economizer coil. If a cooling call remains for a period of >10 min the compressor will be enabled to assist the WSE in meeting the cooling demand.

PRE-START-UP
System Checkout
After completing the installation, and before energizing the unit, the following system checks should be made prior to initial start-up:
- Verify the supply voltage to the heat pump is in accordance with the nameplate ratings.
- Verify the control transformer is set to the correct voltage for 208/230-v units (factory setting is 230-v).
- Make sure that all electrical connections are tight and secure.
- Check the electrical fusing/breaker and wiring for the correct size.
-
Verify the low voltage wiring between the thermostat or DDC controls and the unit is correct.
-
Verify the water piping is complete and correct.
-
Verify there are no leaks in the external piping or in the internal unit piping. Correct as necessary.
-
Verify the isolation or flow control valves are open and that any automatic flow control valve or balancing valve are set to the correct setting.
-
Check the water flow is correct and adjust if necessary.
-
Check the blower for free rotation, and that it is secured to the shaft.
-
Verify the foam blower shipping support has been removed.
-
Vertical Units Only - Verify vibration isolation has been provided and that the unit has been installed on a solid structure.
-
Horizontal Units Only - Verify the hanging brackets have been installed and that the unit is secured to an adequate support structure.
-
Verify the unit has proper service clearance. Be certain that all access panels are secured in place.
-
Verify ductwork has been properly fastened to supply and return duct collars.
-
Verify the ductwork is free from obstruction and that all dampers or registers are open.
-
Make sure return air filters are positioned correctly in the filter rack if removed during installation.
-
Verify the unit is not in TEST mode.
- Verify all control components have been properly configured and that all control components have been wired.
- For units with TruVu DDC controller, verify a space temperature input is provided via ZS sensor, or non-communication zone sensor (10K thermistor), or over the network and that a commissioning interface is available.
CLEAN AIR COIL
To obtain maximum performance, clean the air coil before starting the unit. A ten percent solution of dishwasher detergent and water is recommended for both sides of the coil. Rinse thoroughly with water.
CONSTANT AIRFLOW (ECM) MOTOR
The 50WT units in 208/230-v, 265-v, or 460-v are available with a constant airflow ECM blower motor. These motors dynamically adjust their power output to precisely match the desired airflow on a pre-programmed fan curve. See Tables 13-14 for blower performance by speed setting, and for the factory default motor setting. These motors include the following features:
- Three Speed Settings: Units are factory set to "NORM" but can be field adjusted to "+" to increase CFM by 15% or to "-" to reduce CFM by 15%. See the constant airflow ECM motor blower performance table for complete details on available CFM for each unit size (refer to the Wire Control Connections section of this manual).
- Low CFM Ventilation: Units circulate air at 70% of full airflow rate when there is a call for fan only.
- Passive Dehumidification: Reduces airflow during a cooling call when dehumidification is also required. This reduces the sensible heat ratio of the cooling coil and extends cooling run time to dehumidify more effectively (refer to the Wire Control Connections section of this manual).
- Test Mode: Operates the motor at a 70% torque setting. This setting can be used to diagnose programming problems in the motor itself (refer to the Wire Control Connections section of this manual).
- CFM Indicator Light: indicator light blinks for each 100 CFM of air delivered.
NOTE: This blink code is approximate and should not replace test and balance.

c. Cfm airflow is based on wet coil and 1 in. disposable MERV 5 filter.
System Flushing and Filling
Once the piping is complete, units require final purging and loop charging. A flush cart pump of at least 1.5 hp is needed to achieve adequate flow velocity in the loop to purge air and dirt particles from the loop. Flush the loop in both directions with a high volume of water at a high velocity. Follow the steps below to properly flush the loop:
- Verify power is off.
-
Fill loop with water from hose through flush cart before using flush cart pump to ensure an even fill. Do not allow the water level in the flush cart tank to drop below the pump inlet line to prevent air from filling the line.
-
Maintain a fluid level in the tank above the return tee to avoid air entering back into the fluid.
-
Shutting off the return valve that connects into the flush cart reservoir will allow 50 psig surges to help purge air pockets. This maintains the pump at 50 psig.
-
To purge, keep the pump at 50 psig until maximum pumping pressure is reached.
-
Open the return valve to send a pressure surge through the loop to purge any air pockets in the piping system.
-
A noticeable drop in fluid level will be seen in the flush cart tank. This is the only indication of air in the loop. NOTE: If air is purged from the system while using a 10 in. PVC flush tank, the level drop will only be 1 to 2 in. since liquids are incompressible. If the level drops more than this, flushing should continue since air is still being compressed in the loop. If level is less than 1 to 2 in., reverse the flow.
-
Repeat this procedure until all air is purged.
-
Restore power.
Antifreeze may be added before, during or after the flushing process. However, depending on when it is added in the process, it can be wasted. Refer to the Antifreeze section on page 39 for more detail.
Loop static pressure will fluctuate with the seasons. Pressures will be higher in the winter months than during the warmer months.
This fluctuation is normal and should be considered when charging the system initially. Run the unit in either heating or cooling for several minutes to condition the loop to a homogeneous temperature.
When complete, perform a final flush and pressurize the loop to a static pressure of 40 to 50 psig for winter months or 15 to 20 psig for summer months.
After pressurization, be sure to remove the plug from the end of the loop pump motor(s) to allow trapped air to be discharged and to ensure the motor housing has been flooded. Be sure the loop flow center provides adequate flow through the unit by checking pressure drop across the heat exchanger. Compare the results to the data in Fig. 35 and 36.
System Flow
FLOW VERIFICATION
The 50WT WSHP units ordered without a factory-installed water flow switch as standard. It is recommend to provide field-installed water flow switch or order the unit with factory-installed water flow switch to prevent the compressor from operating without loop flow.
IMPORTANT: It is recommended to have a flow switch to prevent the unit from running if water flow is lost.
FLOW REGULATION
Flow regulation can be accomplished by two methods. Most water control valves have a flow adjustment built into the valve. By measuring the pressure drop through the unit heat exchanger, the flow rate can be determined. Adjust the water control valve until the desired flow rate is achieved. Since the pressure constantly varies, two pressure gauges may be needed in some applications. See Fig. 35 and 36 for waterside pressure drop.
An alternate method of flow regulation is to install an automatic flow control valve. These valves feature a removable cartridge that controls the maximum flow through the valve assembly. Verify that the water flow control cartridge matches the application flow requirement.

ANTIFREEZE
In areas where leaving water temperatures drop below 40^ F or where piping will be routed through areas subject to freezing, anti-freeze is needed.
Alcohols and glycols are commonly used as antifreeze agents. Freeze protection should be maintained to 15^ F below the lowest expected entering loop temperature. For example, if the lowest expected entering loop temperature is 30^ F, the leaving loop temperature would be 22 to 25^ F. Therefore, the freeze protection should be at 15^ F ( 30^ F - 15^ F = 15^ F).
NOTE: All alcohols should be pre-mixed and pumped from a reservoir outside of the building or introduced under water level to prevent fuming.
Calculate the total volume of fluid in the piping system (see Table 15). Use the percentage by volume in Table 16 to determine the amount of antifreeze to use. Antifreeze concentration should be checked from a well-mixed sample using a hydrometer to measure specific gravity.

Operating Limits
ENVIRONMENT
This equipment is designed for indoor installation only. Extreme variations in temperature, humidity and corrosive water or air will adversely affect the unit performance, reliability and service life.
NOTE: Two factors determine the operating limits of a unit: entering-air temperature and water temperature. Whenever any of these factors are at a minimum or maximum level, the other factor must be at a normal level to ensure proper unit operation. See Tables 18-22.
POWER SUPPLY
A voltage variation of ± 10% of nameplate utilization voltage is acceptable.
UNIT STARTING CONDITIONS
Depending on the model, units should start and operate with entering water temperature temperatures between 20 and 110°F and entering air temperatures between 45 and 95°F. Water flow rates should be between 1.5 and 3.0 gpm/nominal cooling ton.
NOTE: These operating limits are not normal or continuous operating conditions. Assume that such a start-up is for the purpose of bringing the building space up to occupancy temperature. See Table 17 for operating limits.

Start-Up Procedure
WARNING
When the disconnect switch is closed, high voltage is present in some areas of the electrical panel. Exercise caution when working with the energized equipment. Failure to heed this warning could lead to personal injury.
- Restore power to system.
- Turn thermostat blower position to ON or use the DDC interface to enable the unit blower. The blower should start.
- Balance airflow at diffusers/dampers.
- Adjust all water valves to the full open position.
- Use the thermostat or DDC control to enable the compressor by placing the unit in cooling mode.
- Verify compressor operation. If scroll compressor, verify compressor rotation direction.
SCROLL COMPRESSOR ROTATION
It is important to be certain compressor is rotating in the proper direction. To determine whether or not compressor is rotating in the proper direction:
- Connect service gauges to suction and discharge pressure fittings.
- Energize the compressor by using the thermostat or DDC control to put the unit in cooling mode.
- The suction pressure should drop and the discharge pressure should rise, as is normal on any start-up.
If the suction pressure does not drop and the discharge pressure does not rise to normal levels:
- Turn off power to the unit. Install disconnect tag.
- Reverse any two of the unit power leads.
- Reapply power to the unit and verify pressures are correct. The suction and discharge pressure levels should now move to their normal start-up levels.
When the compressor is rotating in the wrong direction, the unit makes more noise and does not provide cooling.
After a few minutes of reverse operation, the scroll compressor internal overload protection will open, thus activating the unit lockout. This requires a manual reset. To reset the lockout, turn the thermostat on and then off or power cycle the unit power feed.
NOTE: There is a 5-minute time delay before the compressor will restart.
COOLING MODE START-UP
- Using the thermostat or DDC control, operate the unit in the cooling cycle. Refer to Table 17 for operating limits. Allow the unit to run for a minimum of five minutes and record the operating data.
- Check for water leaks and vibration.
- Check for cool air delivery at unit grille a few minutes after the unit has begun to operate.
- Verify that the compressor is on and that the water flow rate is correct by measuring pressure drop through the heat exchanger using P/T plugs. Check the elevation and cleanliness of the condensate lines; any dripping could be a sign of a blocked line. Be sure the condensate trap includes a water seal.
- Check the temperature of both supply and discharge water. Compare to Tables 18-22. If temperature is within range, proceed. If temperature is outside the range, check the cooling refrigerant pressures in Tables 18-22.
- Check air temperature drop across the coil when compressor is operating. Air temperature drop should be between 15 and 25°F.
- Disable cooling mode and wait a period of 5 minutes to allow system pressures to equalize.
HEATING MODE START-UP
- After waiting for a period of 5 minutes after the cooling cycle, use the thermostat or DDC control to operate the unit in the heating cycle. Refer to Table 17 for operating limits. Allow the unit to run for a minimum of five minutes and record the operating data.
- Check for water leaks and vibration.
- Check for warm air delivery at unit grille a few minutes after the unit has begun to operate.
- Verify that the compressor is on and that the water flow rate is correct by measuring pressure drop through the heat exchanger using P/T plugs.
- Check the temperature of both supply and discharge water. Compare to Tables 18-22. If temperature is within range, proceed. If temperature is outside the range, check the cooling refrigerant pressures in Tables 18-22.
- Check air temperature rise across the coil when compressor is operating. Air temperature rise should be between 20^ F and 30^ F.
- Disable heating mode.

OPERATION
Power Up Mode
The unit will not operate until all the inputs, terminals and safety controls are checked for normal operation.
NOTE: The compressor will have a 5-minute anti-short cycle upon power up.
Unit Protection Module (UPM)
All Carrier WSHP units feature an advanced UPM which implements all the critical equipment safeties and allows for continuous safe and reliable operation. Fig. 37 shows the UPM sequence of operations for units safeties. Refer to Step 9 — “Configure Unit Control Components” on page 21 for detailed information about Safeties and Alarms.
Option Card
An optional expansion card is provided on units that are intended to be controlled by a thermostat. The card supplements the primary thermostat control by controlling auxiliary devices that a thermostat is not typically capable of controlling. Refer to Step 9 — “Configure Unit Control Components” on page 21 for information.
Sequence of Operation of Units Without DDC Controller
STANDBY
Y and W terminals are not active in Standby mode; however, the O and G terminals may be active, depending on the application. The compressor will be off.
COOLING
Y and O terminals are active in Cooling mode. After power up, the first call to the compressor will initiate a 270 to 300 second random start delay and a 5-minute anti-short cycle protection time delay. After both delays are complete, the compressor is energized.
NOTE: On all subsequent compressor calls the random start delay is omitted.
HEATING STAGE 1
Terminal Y is active in heating stage 1. After power up, the first call to the compressor will initiate a 270 to 300 second random start delay and a 5-minute anti-short cycle protection time delay. After both delays are complete, the compressor is energized.
NOTE: On all subsequent compressor calls the random start delay is omitted.
HOT GAS REHEAT WITH OPTION CARD (OPTIONAL)
Terminal H is active in dehumidification mode with hot gas reheat. After a call for H, the reversing valve (O), compressor (Y), and fan (G) are also enabled.
NOTE: Any call for cooling (Y), heating (Y or W), or reversing valve (O) will override dehumidification mode (H).
WATERSIDE ECONOMIZER WITH OPTION CARD (OPTIONAL)
Y and O terminals are active in Cooling mode. When the entering water temperature drops below the configured entering water temperature set point specified on the Option Card, the compressor and reversing valve are disabled and the waterside economizer is enabled. The waterside economizer three way control valve will divert water to the economizer coil for free cooling. If a cooling call remains for a period of >10 min the compressor will be enabled to assist the WSE in meeting the cooling demand. When the entering water temperature rises above the configured on the Option card board set point, the waterside economizer is disabled and the compressor and reversing valve are enabled.
AUXILIARY ELECTRIC HEAT (OPTIONAL)
The output provided on the controller shall be able to control single stage of electric heat. The sequence of operation of the electrical heat is an alternative/emergency heat. When the terminal W is energized, it will enable Electric heater and disable compressor (Y).
TWO-POSITION MOTORIZED ISOLATION VALVE (2-WAY SOLENOID VALVE) (OPTIONAL)
The two way water flow control valve is enabled anytime there is a call for cooling (Y), heating (Y), or dehumidification (H) and allows water to flow through the unit. When there is no call for cooling, heating, or dehumidification, the water flow control valve is disabled, stopping flow through the unit.
BOILERLESS HEAT WITH OPTION CARD (OPTIONAL)
When the entering water temperature is below the configured set point on the Option Card (refer to Step 9 — “Configure Unit Control Components” on page 21) and there is a call for heating (Y), the compressor is disabled and the auxiliary heat output is enabled (W). When the entering water temperature is above the configured EWT set point, the auxiliary heat out-put is disabled and the compressor is enabled.
DIFFERENTIAL PRESSURE SWITCH / FLOW SWITCH (OPTIONAL)
The flow switch monitors the pressure difference between two points on the waterside. The unit will be shut down if flow is not met.
REFRIGERANT LEAK DETECTION SYSTEM (OPTIONAL)
The A2L sensor continually samples the air and if the concentration of refrigerant detected is higher than the preset threshold (15% LFL), it sends a signal to the UPM which then switches off the compressor and turns on the blower. The compressor will remain off until saturation level is within acceptable range (12% LFL). The A2L sensor is connected to the UPM, it must always remain connected. If communication is lost, the UPM will enter refrigerant leak hard lockout fault and energize the alarm contact. To test that the communication between the sensor and board is active, the sensor can be disconnected from the UPM, which should simulate a fault. The A2L sensor for the refrigerant leak detection system shall only be replaced with the part specified on the spare parts list.
WARNING
When refrigerant leak detection system installed, unit must be powered except for service.
WARNING
Continuous air circulation required for proper functioning.
COMPRESSOR RELAY (OPTIONAL)
Optional relay providing compressor status via a normally open set of dry contacts.
PUMP/VALVE RELAY (OPTIONAL)
The pump/valve relay is enabled anytime there is a call for cooling (Y), heating (Y), or dehumidification (H) and can be used to enable/disable field installed 2 way solenoid valve or circulator pumps. When there is no call for cooling, heating, or dehumidification, pump/valve relay is disabled.

Fig. 37 — UPM Sequence of Operations
Sequence of Operation for Units with TruVu DDC Controller
Units with TruVu ^TM DDC controller still feature a UPM board for unit operation, so the operation will be similar to the sequence for units without DDC controller. TruVu ^TM does feature advanced functionality, such as automatic fan speed control
and intelligent alarming, which will differ from the units with UPM board only. Below is an overview of the different features for the TruVu™ controls. See Fig. 38 for TruVu™ Control Board overview.

Fig. 38 — TruVu Control Board
SCHEDULING
Time periods can be configured to schedule the transitions from occupied to unoccupied operation. The time periods control the space temperature to occupied heating and cooling setpoints. The unit operates continuously in the Occupied mode until a time schedule is configured by using either the TruVu Equipment Touch, Field Assistant, the i-Vu® application, or a third-party control system enables/disables the BAS On/Off point. The local time and date for these functions must be set to operate properly.
The occupancy source can be changed to one of the following:
Occupancy Schedules
The controller is occupied 24/7 until you configure a time schedule using either the TruVu Equipment Touch, Field Assistant, the i-Vu® application, or a third party Enables/Disables the BAS On/Off point. You can disable this by going to Configuration > Unit Configuration > Occupancy Schedules, changing the point from Enable to Disable and clicking OK.
NOTE: You must Enable this point in order for the TruVu™ ET Touch, Field Assistant, or the i-Vu® application to assign a time schedule to the controller.
Schedule Schedule
The unit operates according to the schedule configured and stored in the unit. The schedule is accessible via the TruVu ET, the i-Vu® application, or Field Assistant. The daily schedule consists of a start and stop time (standard or 24-hour mode) and 7 days of the week, starting with Monday and ending on Sunday.

CAUTION
Scheduling can only be controlled from one source.
Occupancy Input Contact (Option)
If configured for remote occupancy control (default), the TruVu can use an external dry contact closure to determine the occupancy status of the unit. You must disable the Occupancy Schedules in order to use the occupancy contact input. The unit enters an occupied mode when it senses the abnormal input. After the input returns to its normal state, the unit stays in the occupied mode for the configured OCC Override Delay period (15 minutes default).
BAS (Building Automation System) On/Off
For use with a Building Automation System that supports network scheduling, you must disable the Occupancy Schedules so the BAS system can control the unit through a network communication and the BAS scheduling function.
Global Occupancy Scheduling
The TruVu can read the occupancy status from another unit so that a group of WSHP's can be controlled from a single occupancy schedule. The local Occupancy Schedules must be disabled in order to use the global occupancy input.
BACnet Network Occupancy Input
The TruVu can accept an external BACnet Binary Network Input for occupancy control. This function is only compatible with units used in BACnet systems. You need to configure the System Occupancy BACnet network input point to locate the device and point name where the external occupancy point information resides. You must also disable Occupancy Schedules in order to use this input.
INDOOR FAN
Fan Modes
You can configure the indoor fan to operate in any one of 3 fan modes:
- Auto - intermittent operation during both occupied and unoccupied periods
- Continuous (default) - intermittent operation during unoccupied periods and continuous during occupied periods
- Always on - operates the fan continuously during both occupied and unoccupied periods
In the continuous default mode, the fan is turned on when any one of the following is true:
- It is in occupied mode, which is determined by the occupancy status.
- There is a demand for cooling or heating in unoccupied mode.
- There is a call for dehumidification (optional).
Auto Fan Speed Control
The TruVu can control up to 3 fan speeds using the ECM (Electronically Commutated Motor). The motor operates at the lowest speed possible to provide quiet and efficient fan operation with the best latent capability. The motor increases speed if additional cooling or heating is required to reach the desired space temperature setpoint. The control increases the motor's speed as the space temperature rises above the cooling or below the heating setpoint. The amount of space temperature increase above or below the setpoint required to increase the fan speed is configurable in the setpoint. Also, the control increases the fan speed as the Supply Air Temperature approaches the configured minimum or maximum limits.
- Heating Max SAT Control - When heat is required and active, the control continuously monitors the supply air temperature to verify it does not rise above the configured Maximum Heating SAT Limit (110° default). As the SAT approaches this value, the control increases the fan speed as required to ensure the SAT remains within the limit. This provides the most quiet and efficient operation by running the fan at the lowest speed possible.
- Cooling Min SAT Control - When mechanical cooling is required and active, the control continuously monitors the supply air temperature to verify it does not fall below the configured Minimum Cooling SAT Limit (50° default). As the SAT approaches this value, the control increases the fan speed as required to ensure the SAT will remain within the limit. Fan operates at the lowest speed during dehumidification to maximize latent capacity during cooling.
Fan Delay
When power is reapplied after a power outage, there is a configurable delay of 5 - 600 seconds (default 60) before starting the fan. You must configure the fan delay:
- The Fan On Delay defines the delay time (0 - 30 seconds, default 10) before the fan begins to operate after heating or cooling is started.
- The Fan Off Delay defines the delay time (0 - 180 seconds, default 45) the fan continues to operate after heating or cooling is stopped.
NOTE: The fan continues to run as long as the compressors, heating stages, or the dehumidification relays are on. If the SPT failure alarm, ZS Sensor failure alarm, or condensate overflow alarm is active, the fan is shutdown immediately, regardless of occupancy state or demand.
Fan Status
You can configure an optional input as either an occupancy input contact or a fan status input. If configured as fan status, the controller compares the status of the fan to the desired commanded state. When the fan is commanded to run (ON), the fan status is checked and verified to match the commanded state. If the fan status is not on, then a fan status alarm is generated after 1 minute and the equipment's compressor(s) and auxiliary heat is disabled and the optional OA damper closes.
COOLING OPERATION
Space Temperature Control
The TruVu operates 1 or 2 stages of compression to maintain the desired cooling setpoint. The compressor outputs are controlled by the PI (Proportional-integral) cooling loop and cooling stages capacity algorithm. The algorithm calculates the desired number of stages needed to satisfy the space by comparing the control temperature (return air or space) to the appropriate cooling setpoint.
NOTE: The waterside economizer, if applicable, is used for first stage cooling, in addition to the compressor(s). The following conditions must be true for the cooling algorithm to run:
- Cooling is set to Enable.
- The Fire/Smoke Input and Shutdown modes are inactive.
- Heat mode is not active and the compressor time guard(s) have expired.
- Condensate overflow alarm status is Normal.
- Fan Status is True (if option is enabled).
- If occupied, the control temperature is greater than the occupied cooling setpoint.
• Control temperature reading is valid.
- If unoccupied, the control temperature is greater than the unoccupied cooling setpoint.
- If economizer cooling is available and active, and the economizer alone is insufficient to provide enough cooling.
- OAT > Cooling Lockout Temperature if OAT is available.
- Source water pump is on (if source water linkage is active).
- Water Flow Switch Status is True (if option is enabled).
If all of the above conditions are met, the compressors' relays are energized as required. Otherwise, they will be de-energized. If cooling is active and if the SAT approaches the minimum SAT limit, the fan will be indexed to the next higher speed. If this is insufficient, and if the SAT falls further (equal to the minimum SAT limit), the fan will be indexed to the maximum speed. If the SAT still continues to falls 5°F below the minimum SAT limit, all cooling stages will be disabled.
During Cooling, the reversing valve output is held in the cooling position (either B or O type, as configured), even after the compressor is stopped. The valve does not switch position until the heating mode is required.
The configuration screens contain the Min SAT parameter as well as Cooling Lockout based on outdoor air temperature (OAT). Both can be adjusted to meet various specifications.
Passive Dehumidification
When the unit is configured for auto fan speed control the TruVu will use the lowest fan speed setting possible to meet the setpoint and stay within the maximum SAT limits. Using the lowest fan speed possible in cooling operation will provide a method of passive dehumidification allowing for enhanced latent capacity.
Hot Gas Reheat Dehumidification
The TruVu provides occupied and unoccupied dehumidification only on units that are equipped with the reheat option. This function requires an accessory hardwired space relative humidity sensor. When using a relative humidity sensor to control dehumidification during occupied or unoccupied times, the dehumidification setpoints are used accordingly. Also, you may use a ZS Humidity Sensor or a network input point System Space RH in place of the hardwired RH sensor.
When the indoor relative humidity becomes greater than the dehumidification setpoint, a dehumidification demand is acknowledged. Once acknowledged, the dehumidification output is energized, bringing on the supply fan (medium speed), mechanical cooling, and the integral reheat coil. The controls engage cooling mode and the waste heat from the compressor cooling cycle is returned to the reheat coil simultaneously, meaning that the reversing valve causes the compressor to operate in the cooling mode. NOTE: During cooling mode, the unit cools and dehumidifies, and disables the reheat coil. However, once the call for cooling has been satisfied and there is still a call for dehumidification, the unit continues to operate in the reheat mode.
HEATING OPERATION
Space Temperature Control (Reverse Cycle Heating)
The TruVu operates 1 or 2 stages of compression to maintain the desired heating setpoint. The compressor outputs are controlled by the heating PI (Proportional-integral) loop and heating stages capacity algorithm. The algorithm calculates the desired number of stages needed to satisfy the space by comparing the control temperature (return air or space) to the appropriate heating setpoint.
The following conditions must be true for the heating algorithm to run:
- Heating is set to Enable.
- The Fire/Smoke Input and Shutdown modes are inactive.
- Cool mode is not active and the compressor time guard has expired.
- Condensate overflow alarm status is Normal.
- Fan Status is True (if option is enabled).
- If occupied, the control temperature is less than the occupied heating setpoint.
• Control temperature reading is valid.
- If unoccupied, the control temperature is less than the unoccupied heating setpoint.
- OAT > < Heating Lockout Temperature if OAT is available.
- Source Water Pump is on (if Source Water Linkage active).
- Water Flow Switch Status is True (if option is enabled).
If all the above conditions are met, the heating outputs are energized as required, otherwise they are de-energized. If heating is active and the SAT approaches the maximum SAT limit, the fan is indexed to the next higher speed. If this is insufficient, and if the SAT rises further and reaches the Maximum Heating SAT limit, the fan is indexed to the maximum speed. If the SAT still continues to rise 5°F above the maximum limit, all heating stages are disabled.
Space Temperature Control (Reverse Cycle Heating and Auxiliary Heat)
The TruVu can control a 2-position or modulating water or steam valve, connected to a coil on the discharge side of the unit and supplied by a boiler, or a single stage ducted electric heater, in order to maintain the desired heating setpoint. If the compressor capacity is insufficient, or a compressor failure occurs, the auxiliary heat is used. Unless the compressor fails, the auxiliary heat only operates to supplement the heat provided by the compressor, if the space temperature falls more than 1°F below the desired heating setpoint. (This amount is configurable.) The heat is controlled so the SAT does not exceed the Maximum Heating SAT limit.
The same conditions required for Reverse Cycle Heating must be true in order for the Auxiliary Heat algorithm to run.
Auxiliary Modulating Hot Water / Steam Heating
The control can modulate a hot water or steam valve connected to a coil on the discharge side of the unit, and supplied by a boiler in order to maintain the desired heating setpoint, if the compressor capacity is insufficient, or a compressor failure occurs. Unless a compressor fault condition exists, the valve only operates to supplement the heat provided by the compressor if the space temperature falls more than 1^ F below the desired heating setpoint. The valve is controlled so the SAT does not exceed the Maximum Heating SAT limit.
2-Position Hot Water / Steam Heating
The control can operate a 2-position, NO or NC, hot water or steam valve, connected to a coil on the discharge side of the unit and supplied by a boiler, in order to maintain the desired heating setpoint, if the compressor capacity is insufficient or a compressor
failure occurs. Unless a compressor fault condition exists, the valve only opens to supplement the heat provided by the compressor, if the space temperature falls more than 1^ F below the desired heating setpoint. The valve is controlled so the SAT does not exceed the Maximum Heating SAT limit and is subject to a 2-minute minimum OFF-time to prevent excessive valve cycling.
Electric Auxiliary Heat
The control can operate a factory or field-installed single or two stage of electric heat that is installed on the discharge side of the unit, in order to maintain the desired heating setpoint, if the compressor capacity is insufficient or a compressor failure occurs. Unless a compressor fault condition exists, the heat stage only operates to supplement the heat provided by the compressor if the space temperature falls more than 1^ F below the desired heating setpoint. The heat stage is controlled so the SAT does not exceed the Maximum Heating SAT limit and is subject to a 2-minute minimum OFF-time to prevent excessive cycling.
"Boilerless" Control (Auxiliary Heat)
The TruVu can be configured to control the auxiliary heat source for “boilerless” types of systems or system with no means for heat injection into the source water loop. Compressor will be disabled, and the auxiliary heat source will be enabled when the entering water temperature drops below the configurable boilers electric heat setpoint.
WATERSIDE ECONOMIZER
The TruVu can provide modulating, or 2-position waterside economizer operation (for a factory or field-installed economizer coil mounted to the return air side of the unit and connected to the source water loop), in order to provide free cooling or preheating, when water conditions are optimal. Waterside economizer settings can be accessed on Properties > Equipment > Status.
The following conditions must be true for economizer operation:
- SAT reading is available.
- EWT reading is available.
- If occupied, the control temperature is greater than the occupied cooling setpoint or less than the occupied heating setpoint and the source water is suitable.
- Space temperature reading is valid.
- If unoccupied, the SPT or ZS is greater than the unoccupied cooling setpoint, or less than the unoccupied heating setpoint, and the source water is suitable.
Modulating Waterside Economizer Control
Modulates a water valve to control source water flowing through a coil on the entering air side of the unit
Cooling
Provides an economizer cooling function by using the source water loop when the entering water loop temperature is at least 5^ F below space temperature. If the water loop conditions are suitable, the valve modulates open to maintain a Supply Air Temperature that meets the load conditions. If the economizer coil capacity alone is insufficient for a period greater than 5 minutes, or if a high humidity condition occurs, then the compressor starts, in order to satisfy the load. If the SAT approaches the Minimum Cooling SAT limit (HOME > CONFIG > UNIT), the economizer valve modulates closed during compressor operation.
Heating
In addition, the control modulates the water valve if the entering source water loop temperature is suitable for heating (at least 5^ F above space temperature) and heat is required. The valve is controlled in a similar manner, except to satisfy the heating requirement. If the coil capacity alone is insufficient to satisfy the space load conditions for more than 5 minutes, then the compressor starts in order to satisfy the load. If the SAT approaches the Maximum Heating SAT limit, the economizer valve modulates closed during compressor operation.
2-position Waterside Economizer Control
2-Position Waterside Economizer Control has the capability to control a NO or NC, 2-position water valve to control source water flow through a coil on the entering air side of the unit.
Cooling
The purpose is to provide a cooling economizer function directly from the source water loop when the entering water loop temperature is at least 5^ F below space temperature. If the optional coil is provided and the water loop conditions are suitable, then the valve opens to provide cooling to the space, when required. If the capacity is insufficient for a period greater than 5 minutes, or if a high humidity condition occurs, the compressor is started in order to satisfy the load. If the SAT reaches the Minimum Cooling SAT limit, the economizer valve closes during compressor operation.
Heating
In addition, the economizer control opens the water valve, if the entering water loop temperature is suitable for heating (at least 5^ F above space temperature) and heat is required. The valve is controlled in a similar manner, except to satisfy the heating requirement. If the coil capacity is insufficient to satisfy the space load for more than 5 minutes, then the compressor is started to satisfy the load. If the SAT reaches the Maximum Heating SAT limit, the economizer valve closes during compressor operation.
Indoor Air Quality and Demand Control Ventilation
If the optional hardwired indoor air quality sensor is installed, ZS CO₂ (IAQ), or the System Space AQ network input point is used, the TruVu maintains indoor air quality with a modulating OA damper, which provides demand controlled ventilation. The control operates the modulating OA damper during occupied periods, monitors the CO₂ level, compares it to the configured setpoints, and adjusts the ventilation rate, as required. The control provides proportional ventilation to meet the requirements of ASHRAE specifications by providing a base ventilation rate and then increasing the rate as the CO₂ level increases. The control proportionally increases ventilation when the CO₂ level rises above the start ventilation setpoint and reaches the full ventilation rate when the CO₂ level is at or above the maximum setpoint.
Configure the minimum damper position to ensure that proper base ventilation is delivered when occupants are not present. Access the IAQ configurations through the configuration screen.
The following conditions must be true in order for this algorithm to run:
- Damper Control is configured for DCV.
- The Fire/Smoke Input and Shutdown modes are inactive.
- Fan status is True (if option is enabled).
- The unit is in an occupied mode.
- IAQ sensor reading is greater than the DCV start CTRL setpoint.
The control has the following 4 adjustable setpoints:
- DCV Start Ctrl Setpoint.
- DCV Max Ctrl Setpoint.
• Minimum Damper POS.
• DCV Max Vent Damper POS.
NOTE: For the damper to maintain proper base ventilation, you must configure the fan as Continuous or Always On.
2-Position OA Damper
Alternatively, the controller can be configured to operate as a ventilation damper in a 2-position ventilation mode to provide the minimum ventilation requirements during occupied periods.
Differential pressure switch / water flow switch
The flow switch monitors the pressure difference between two points on the waterside. An optional input can be configured as condenser water flow status input. If configured, the flow status must be ON for 3 seconds to enable the compressors.
COMPRESSOR STATUS
The TruVu provides a status input to monitor the compressor operation. The status is monitored to determine if the compressor status matches the commanded state. This input is used to determine if a refrigerant safety switch or other safety device has tripped and caused the compressor to stop operating normally. If this occurs, an alarm is generated to indicate the faulted compressor condition.
DEMAND LIMITING
The TruVu can accept 3 levels of demand limit from the BACnet network. In response to a demand limit, the unit decreases its heating setpoint and increases its cooling setpoint to widen the range, in order to immediately lower the electrical demand. You can configure the temperature adjustment for both heating and cooling and for each demand level. You can also set the response to a particular demand level to 0.
REMOTE DISABLE
Fire/Smoke Detector Input
The TruVu can read the status of a normally closed FSD contact input to determine if a fire or smoke detector alarm is present. If the controller determines an alarm condition is present, all heating, cooling, and the fan are disabled. The switch is factory-set to Normally Closed and cannot be changed.
Shutdown Input
The TruVu controller has a shutdown input (software point) which, when set to its Active mode causes the WSHP to safely shutdown in a controlled fashion. Heating and cooling is disabled after any minimum runtime conditions expire and the fan is disabled after the fan-off timer expires. All alarms are reset but any active alarm remains active. After the shutdown input transitions from Active mode to Inactive, the TruVu restarts after the configured power fail restart delay expires.
ALARMS
High Discharge Pressure (UPM Alarm)
The TruVu WSHP monitors the status of a high discharge pressure fault condition via the serial port (S1). The fault condition is determined by the Unit Protection Module (UPM) included on all WSHPs. The UPM monitors a high-pressure switch input and establishes a high-pressure fault when the discharge pressure exceeds 600 PSIG. Upon fault a 5-minute break is initiated (soft lockout) and the compressor is disabled. The unit will automatically restart after this time period. If the fault occurs 2 times (configurable on UPM) within 60 minutes the UPM will put the unit into hard lockout requiring manual reset. Manual reset can be accomplished remotely when the UPM is configured for the reset method "Y" by remotely disabling the unit via the TruVu WSHP.
Low Suction Pressure (UPM Alarm)
The TruVu WSHP monitors the status of a low suction pressure fault condition via the serial port (S1). The fault condition is determined by the Unit Protection Module (UPM) included on all WSHPs. The UPM monitors a low-pressure switch input and establishes a high-pressure fault when the discharge pressure drops below 40 PSIG. Upon fault a 5-minute break is initiated (soft lockout) and the compressor is disabled. The unit will automatically restart after this time period. If the fault occurs 2 times (configurable on UPM) within 60 minutes the UPM will put the unit into hard lockout requiring manual reset. Manual reset can be accomplished remotely when the UPM is configured for the reset method "Y" by remotely disabling the unit via the TruVu WSHP.
Air Coil Freeze Alarm (UPM Alarm)
The TruVu WSHP monitors the status of an air coil freeze fault condition via the serial port (S1). The fault condition is determined by the Unit Protection Module (UPM) included on all WSHPs. The UPM monitors the heating liquid line refrigerant temperature and establishes a high-pressure fault if the temperature drops below 26°F (configurable on UPM) for 30 seconds. Upon fault a 5-minute break is initiated (soft lockout) and the compressor is disabled. The unit will automatically restart after this time period. If the fault occurs 2 times (configurable on UPM) within 60 minutes the UPM will put the unit into hard lockout requiring manual reset. Manual reset can be accomplished remotely when the UPM is configured for the reset method "Y" by remotely disabling the unit via the TruVu WSHP.
Water Coil Freeze Alarm (UPM Alarm)
The TruVu WSHP monitors the status of a water coil freeze fault condition via the serial port (S1). The fault condition is determined by the Unit Protection Module (UPM) included on all WSHPs. The UPM monitors the cooling liquid line refrigerant temperature and establishes a high-pressure fault if the temperature drops below 26°F (configurable on UPM) for 30 seconds. Upon fault a 5-minute break is initiated (soft lockout) and the compressor is disabled. The unit will automatically restart after this time period. If the fault occurs 2 times (configurable on UPM) within 60 minutes the UPM will put the unit into hard lockout requiring manual reset. Manual reset can be accomplished remotely when the UPM is configured for the reset method "Y" by remotely disabling the unit via the TruVu WSHP.
Condensate Overflow Alarm (UPM Alarm)
The TruVu WSHP monitors the status of a condensate overflow fault condition via the serial port (S1). The fault condition is determined by the Unit Protection Module (UPM) included on all WSHPs. The UPM monitors a condensate overflow switch and upon fault puts the unit in a hard lockout condition, disabling the compressor. The hard lockout condition requires manual reset. Manual reset can be accomplished remotely when the UPM is configured for the reset method "Y" by remotely disabling the unit via the TruVu WSHP.
Brownout Alarm (UPM Alarm)
The TruVu WSHP monitors the status of a brownout fault condition via the serial port (S1).
Fire/Smoke Detector Alarm
The control monitors the voltage input to J1-9 to detect if a smoke detector or fire detector NC contact has opened, indicating an alarm condition. The control verifies the presence of 24 vac on this input. If the input opens at any time, an alarm is generated after 3 seconds and the equipment (fan, compressor, aux heat, and damper) immediately shuts down.
Space Temperature Alarms
The control provides the ability to generate an alarm when the space temperature exceeds the alarm setpoint. A separate occupied hysteresis and fixed unoccupied high and low alarm setpoints are provided. The control provides a 5-minute alarm delay during unoccupied periods. During occupied periods, the control uses the occupied temperature setpoint and applies the hysteresis value to determine the alarm setpoints. When occupancy transitions from unoccupied to occupied or the occupied temperature setpoints are changed, causing an alarm condition to occur, the control automatically calculates an alarm delay (equivalent to the configured delay time in minutes/°F, multiplied by the temperature error, +15 minutes). This prevents nuisance alarms when an occupancy change occurs and allows time for the unit to correct an alarming temperature condition.
Source Water Temperature Alarm
The control has 4 configurable alarm limits for source water temperature. The control verifies that the water temperature is within operating range (between high and low limits) for the specific operating mode (heating or cooling) before energizing the compressor. Once the compressor is started, the source water temperature is further monitored to verify that it is within limits to insure sufficient water is flowing through the coil. If the leaving water temperature rises above or falls below the appropriate limits, and lasts for more than 15 seconds, an alarm is generated and the compressor shuts down.
Supply Air Temperature Alarm
The control has 2 configurable alarm limits for supply air temperature. The control verifies that the supply air temperature is within operating range (between high and low limits) when the compressor or auxiliary heat is operating. If the air temperature rises above or falls below the appropriate limits, and this lasts for more than 5 minutes, an alarm is generated.
Fan Status Alarm
The control generates a fan status alarm if the fan status input detects the fan is OFF after any fan speed output has been enabled. A 30-second alarm delay is used to allow the fan to start operation before an alarm condition is detected. The control monitors the fan output and if the fan is operating at any speed, the fan status must detect the fan is operating.
Compressor Status Alarm
The control generates a compressor failure alarm if the compressor status input detects the compressor is OFF after the compressor output has been energized. A 6-minute alarm delay is used to allow the compressor to start (prevents alarms due to timeguard operation) before an alarm condition is detected. The control monitors the compressor output and if the compressor output is energized, the compressor status input must detect the compressor operation.
Filter Status Alarm
The control provides the ability to generate a dirty filter alarm after the number of fan run hours exceeds a configurable filter alarm timer limit. The control monitors the fan output and if the fan is operating at any speed, it accumulates run time. If the fan run time hours exceed the configurable limit, an alarm is generated. To reset the alarm timer after the alarm has been generated, a Reset Filter Alarm input is provided. You can disable the filter alarm by setting the Filter Alarm Timer Delay to 0 (factory default).
Indoor Air Quality Alarm
The control provides the ability to generate a high CO_2 level alarm during occupied periods when the CO_2 sensor value exceeds the adjustable limit. When a transition from unoccupied to occupied occurs, or the occupied alarm limit is changed to a value that causes an alarm condition to occur, the control will automatically calculate an alarm delay (equivalent to the configured delay time in minutes/ppm, times the error that occurred, +15 minutes). This prevents nuisance alarms from occurring when occupancy changes or the setpoint is changed. You can disable the IAQ alarm by setting Occupied High IAQ Alarm Limit to 0.
Relative Humidity Alarm
The control provides the ability to generate an alarm when the space relative humidity exceeds the alarm setpoint. Separate occupied and unoccupied high humidity alarm setpoints are provided. The control provides a 5-minute alarm delay during unoccupied periods. During occupied periods, the controller uses the occupied high RH alarm limit. When an occupancy transition from unoccupied to occupied occurs, or the occupied high alarm limit is lowered, causing an alarm condition to occur, the control automatically calculates an alarm delay (equivalent to the configured delay time in minutes/% RH, times the humidity error condition that occurred, +15 minutes). This prevents nuisance alarms when an occupancy change occurs and allows time for the unit to correct an alarming humidity condition.
Source Water Linkage Failure Alarm (if Source Water Linkage was active)
The control generates a Source Water Linkage failure alarm if Linkage fails after once being active. The Linkage status is monitored and if it fails to be updated from the Loop controller, then a Source Water Linkage alarm is generated. There is a 6-minute alarm delay to prevent false alarms.
NOTE: You can reset this alarm only by re-establishing Linkage and correcting the condition that caused the Linkage failure, or by momentarily setting the Shutdown point to Active.
Airside Linkage Failure Alarm (if Airside Linkage was active)
The control generates an Airside Linkage failure alarm if Linkage fails after once being active. The Linkage status is monitored and if it fails to be updated from the master zone controller, then an Airside Linkage alarm is generated. There is a 6-minute alarm delay to prevent false alarms.
NOTE: You can reset this alarm only by re-establishing Linkage and correcting the condition that caused the Linkage failure, or by momentarily setting the Shutdown point to Active.
OAT Sensor Alarm (if Network OA Temperature was active)
The control generates an OAT Sensor failure alarm if the value of OAT fails to be updated through the network after once being active. The update status is monitored and if it fails to be updated, then an OAT sensor alarm is generated. There is an alarm delay (approximately 1 hour) to prevent false alarms, while minimizing the required update rate for OAT.
NOTE: You can reset this alarm by momentarily setting the Shutdown point to Active.
SPT Sensor Alarm (if SPT sensor was active)
The control generates an SPT sensor failure alarm if the SPT sensor fails to communicate with the control for 5 minutes or greater. The update status is monitored and if it fails to be updated, then an SPT sensor alarm is generated.
ZS Sensor Alarm (if ZS sensor was active)
The control generates a ZS sensor failure alarm if the ZS sensor fails to communicate with the control for 5 minutes or greater. The update status is monitored and if it fails to be updated, then a ZS sensor alarm is generated.
UPM Alarm - Hard lockout status
The control generates Alarm when Hard lockout Alarm is active on UPM board. Configurable 2 or 4 soft lockout alarms on UPM board before unit enters to hard lock out. Soft lockout alarm history is available via controller.
Low Water Flow Alarm
The control monitors differential pressure switch (water flow switch), and generates alarm if water flow is not met.
Air Side Delta T Alarm
The control has 4 configurable alarm limits for Air Side Delta T.
The control verifies that the calculates delta T based on Return and Supply Air temperatures reading and verifies if it operates within configured ranged (between high and low limits) for the specific operating mode (heating or cooling) before energizing the compressor.
Source Water Valve Alarm
The control generates alarm if communication with Act Net device is lost.
Water Side Delta T Alarm
The control has 4 configurable alarm limits for Source water Delta T.
The control verifies that the calculates delta T based on Entering and Leaving water temperatures reading and verifies if it operates within configured ranged (between high and low limits) for the specific operating mode (heating or cooling) before energizing the compressor.
Entering Water Temperature Alarm
The control has 4 configurable alarm limits for Entering Water temperature.
The control verifies that the entering water temperature is within operating range (between high and low limits) for the specific operating mode (heating or cooling) before energizing the compressor. Once the compressor is started, the entering water temperature is further monitored to verify that it is within limits to insure sufficient water is flowing through the coil. If the entering water
temperature rises above or falls below the appropriate limits, and lasts for more than 15 seconds, an alarm is generated and the compressor shuts down.
Return Air Temperature Alarm (if RAT sensor is field provided)
The control has 2 configurable alarm limits for return air temperature. The control verifies that the return air temperature is within operating range (between high and low limits) when unit is operating. If the air temperature rises above or falls below the appropriate limits, and this lasts for more than 5 minutes, an alarm is generated.
SERVICE
Perform the procedures outlined below periodically, as indicated. An annual “checkup” is recommended by a licensed refrigeration mechanic. Recording the performance measurements of volts, amps, and water temperature differences (both heating and cooling) is recommended. This data should be compared to the information on the unit’s data plate and the data taken at the original start-up of the equipment.
Periodic lockouts almost always are caused by air or water flow problems. The lockout (shutdown) of the unit is a normal protective measure in the design of the equipment. If continual lockouts occur call a qualified technician immediately and have them check for water flow problems, water temperature problems, airflow problems or air temperature problems. Use of the pressure and temperature charts for the unit may be required to properly determine the cause.
Jobsite Check
CHECKS TO THE AREA
Prior to beginning work on systems containing flammable refrigerants, safety checks are necessary to ensure that the risk of ignition is minimized. For repair to the refrigerating system the following precautions shall be completed prior to conducting work on the system.
WORK PROCEDURE
Work shall be undertaken under a controlled procedure to minimize the risk of a flammable gas or vapor being present while the work is being performed.
GENERAL WORK AREA
All maintenance staff and others working in the local area shall be instructed on the nature of work being carried out. Work in confined spaces shall be avoided.
CHECKING FOR PRESENCE OF REFRIGERANT
The area shall be checked with an appropriate refrigerant detector prior to and during work, to ensure the technician is aware of potentially toxic or flammable atmospheres. Ensure that the leak detection equipment being used is suitable for use with R-454B refrigerant, i.e. non-sparking, adequately sealed or intrinsically safe.
PRESENCE OF FIRE EXTINGUISHER
If any hot work is to be conducted on the refrigerating equipment or any associated parts, appropriate fire extinguishing equipment shall be available to hand. Have a dry powder or CO_2 fire extinguisher adjacent to the charging area.
NO IGNITION SOURCES
No person carrying out work in relation to a refrigerating system which involves exposing any pipe work shall use any sources of ignition in such a manner that it may lead to the risk of fire or explosion. All possible ignition sources should be kept sufficiently far away from the site of installation, repairing, removing and disposal, during which refrigerant can possibly be released to the possible ignition sources. Prior to work taking place, the area around the equipment is to be surveyed to make sure that there are no
flammable hazards or ignition risks. "No Smoking" signs shall be displayed.
VENTILATED AREA
Ensure that the area is in the open or that it is adequately ventilated before breaking into the system or conducting any hot work. A degree of ventilation shall continue during the period that the work is carried out. The ventilation should safely disperse any released refrigerant and preferably expel it externally into the atmosphere.
WARNING
To avoid injury and the discharge of refrigerant into the environment, all refrigerant discharged from this unit must be recovered without exception. Technicians must follow industry accepted guidelines and all local, state and federal statutes for the recovery and disposal of refrigerants.
WARNING
To avoid injury and the release of refrigerant into the atmosphere, the refrigerant circuit of this unit must only be serviced by technicians who meet local, state and federal proficiency requirements.
WARNING
To prevent injury or death due to electrical shock or contact with moving parts, lockout/tagout disconnect switch before servicing unit.
Electrical Devices
Repair and maintenance to electrical components shall include initial safety checks and component inspection procedures. If a fault exists that could compromise safety, then no electrical supply shall be connected to the circuit until it is satisfactorily repaired. If the fault cannot be corrected immediately but it is necessary to continue operation, an adequate temporary solution shall be used. This shall be reported to the owner so all parties are advised.
Initial safety checks shall include:
- that capacitors are discharged: this shall be done in a safe manner to avoid possibility of sparking;
- that no live electrical components and wiring are exposed while charging, recovering or purging the system;
• that there is continuity of earth bonding
Repairs to Sealed Components
Sealed electrical components shall be replaced.
Repair to Intrinsically Safe Components
Intrinsically safe components must be replaced.
Cabling
Check that cabling will not be subject to wear, corrosion, excessive pressure, vibration, sharp edges or other adverse environmental effects. During the check take into account the effects of aging or continual vibration from sources such as compressors or fans.
Filters
Filter changes or cleanings are required at regular intervals. The time period between filter changes will depend upon type of environment the equipment is used in. In a single family home, that is not under construction, changing or cleaning the filter every 60 days may be sufficient. In other applications such as motels, where daily vacuuming produces a large amount of lint, filter changes may be need to be as frequent as biweekly. See Fig. 2 and 3 for replacement filter sizes. Note that horizontal units
containing two filters are taped together at the factory to facilitate removal. This should be done by end user as new filters are installed.
IMPORTANT: Units should never be operated without a filter.
CAUTION
Equipment should never be used during construction or renovation due to possibility of contaminants entering the air coil of the equipment which permanently affects the performance and may shorten the life of the equipment.
Condensate Drain Pans
The condensate drain should be checked quarterly by cleaning and flushing to ensure proper drainage.
Refrigerant System
Verify air and water flow rates are at proper levels before servicing. To maintain sealed circuitry integrity, do not install service gauges unless unit operation appears abnormal. Check to see that unit is within the superheat and subcooling temperature ranges shown in Tables 18-22. If the unit is not within these ranges, recover and reweigh in refrigerant charge.
REFRIGERATING EQUIPMENT.
Where electrical components are being changed, they shall be fit for the purpose and to the correct specification. At all times the manufacturer's maintenance and service guidelines shall be followed.
The following checks shall be applied to installations using flammable refrigerants:
- the actual refrigerant charge is in accordance with the room size within which the refrigerant containing parts are installed;
- the ventilation machinery and outlets are operating adequately and are not obstructed;
- if an indirect refrigerating circuit is being used, the secondary circuit shall be checked for the presence of refrigerant;
- signs on the equipment continues to be visible and legible. Markings and signs that are illegible shall be corrected;
- refrigerating pipe or components are installed in a position where they are unlikely to be exposed to any substance which may corrode refrigerant containing components, unless the components are constructed of materials which are inherently resistant to being corroded or are suitably protected against being so corroded.
DETECTION OF FLAMMABLE REFRIGERANTS
Under no circumstances shall potential sources of ignition be used in the searching for or detection of refrigerant leaks. A halide torch (or any other detector using a naked flame) shall not be used.
The following leak detection methods are deemed acceptable for all refrigerant systems:
Electronic leak detectors may be used to detect refrigerant leaks but, in the case of flammable refrigerants, the sensitivity may not be adequate, or may need re-calibration. (Detection equipment shall be calibrated in a refrigerant-free area.) Ensure that the detector is not a potential source of ignition and is suitable for the refrigerant used. Leak detection equipment shall be set at a percentage of the LFL gas (25% maximum) and it is confirmed.
Leak detection fluids are also suitable for use with most refrigerants but the use of detergents containing chlorine shall be avoided as the chlorine may react with the refrigerant and corrode the copper pipe-work.
NOTE: Examples of leak detection fluids are the bubble method and fluorescent dye method. If a leak is suspected, all naked flames shall be removed/extinguished. If a leakage of refrigerant is found which requires brazing, all of the refrigerant shall be recovered from the system, or isolated (by means of shut off valves) in a part of the system remote from the leak.
Compressor
IMPORTANT: When a compressor is removed from this unit, system refrigerant circuit oil will remain in the compressor. To avoid leakage of compressor oil, the refrigerant lines of the compressor must be sealed after it is removed.
Conduct annual amperage checks to ensure that amp draw is no more than 10% greater than indicated on the serial plate data.
Fan Motors
All units have lubricated fan motors. Fan motors should never be lubricated unless obvious, dry operation is suspected. Periodic maintenance oiling is NOT recommended as it will result in dirt accumulating in the excess oil and cause eventual motor failure. Conduct annual dry operation check and amperage check to ensure amp draw is no more than 10% greater than indicated on serial plate data and remove any build up on the blower assembly.
Condensate Drain Cleaning
Clean the drain line and unit drain pan at the start of each cooling season. Check flow by pouring water into drain. Be sure trap is filled to maintain an air seal.
Air Coil Cleaning
Remove dirt and debris from evaporator coil as required by condition of the coil. A 10% solution of dishwasher detergent and water is recommended for cleaning both sides of the coil, followed by a thorough water rinse. Clean coil with a stiff brush, vacuum cleaner, or compressed air. Use a fin comb of the correct tooth spacing when straightening mashed or bent coil fins.
Condenser Cleaning
Water-cooled condensers may require cleaning of scale (water deposits) due to improperly maintained closed-loop water systems. Sludge build-up may need to be cleaned in an open water tower system due to induced contaminants.
Local water conditions may cause excessive fouling or pitting of tubes. Condenser tubes should therefore be cleaned at least once a year, or more often if the water is contaminated.
Proper water treatment can minimize tube fouling and pitting. If such conditions are anticipated, water treatment analysis is recommended. Refer to the Carrier System Design Manual, Part 5, for general water conditioning information.
CAUTION
Follow all safety codes. Wear safety glasses and rubber gloves when using inhibited hydrochloric acid solution. Observe and follow acid manufacturer's instructions.
Clean condensers with an inhibited hydrochloric acid solution. The acid can stain hands and clothing, damage concrete, and, without inhibitor, damage steel. Cover surroundings to guard against splashing. Vapors from vent pipe are not harmful, but take care to prevent liquid from being carried over by the gases.
Warm solution acts faster, but cold solution is just as effective if applied for a longer period.
GRAVITY FLOW METHOD
Do not add solution faster than vent can exhaust the generated gases.
When condenser is full, allow solution to remain overnight, then drain condenser and flush with clean water. Follow acid manufacturer's instructions (see Fig. 39).

NOTE: Fill condenser with cleaning solution. Do not add solution more rapidly than vent can exhaust gases caused by chemical action.
Fig. 39 — Gravity Flow Method
FORCED CIRCULATION METHOD
Fully open vent pipe when filling condenser. The vent may be closed when condenser is full and pump is operating. See Fig. 40.
Regulate flow to condenser with a supply line valve. If pump is a non-overloading type, the valve may be fully closed while pump is running.
For average scale deposit, allow solution to remain in condenser overnight. For heavy scale deposit, allow 24 hours. Drain condenser and flush with clean water. Follow acid manufacturer's instructions.

Fig. 40 — Forced Circulation Method
Removal and Evacuation
When breaking into the refrigerant circuit to make repairs, or for any other purpose, conventional procedures shall be used. However, for flammable refrigerants it is important that best practice be followed, since flammability is a consideration. The following procedure shall be adhered to:
- safely remove refrigerant following local and national regulations
- evacuate
• purge the circuit with inert gas (optional for A2L)
• evacuate (optional for A2L)
• continuously flush or purge with inert gas when using flame to open circuit; and
- open the circuit.
The refrigerant charge shall be recovered into the correct recovery cylinders if venting is not allowed by local and national codes. For appliances containing flammable refrigerants, the system shall be purged with oxygen-free nitrogen to render the appliance safe for flammable refrigerants. This process might need to be repeated several times. Compressed air or oxygen shall not be used for purging refrigerant systems.
For appliances containing flammable refrigerants, refrigerant purging shall be achieved by breaking the vacuum in the system with oxygen-free nitrogen and continuing to fill until the working pressure is achieved, then venting to atmosphere, and finally pulling down to a vacuum (optional for A2L). This process shall be repeated until no refrigerant is within the system (optional for A2L). When the final oxygen-free nitrogen charge is used, the system shall be vented down to atmospheric pressure to enable work to take place.
The outlet for the vacuum pump shall not be close to any potential ignition sources, and ventilation shall be available.
Refrigerant Charging
WARNING
To prevent personal injury, wear safety glasses and gloves when handling refrigerant. Do not overcharge system — this can cause compressor flooding.
NOTE: Do not vent or depressurize unit refrigerant to atmosphere. Remove and recover refrigerant following accepted practices.
CHARGING PROCEDURES
In addition to conventional charging procedures, the following requirements shall be followed.
- Ensure that contamination of different refrigerants does not occur when using charging equipment. Hoses or lines shall be as short as possible to minimize the amount of refrigerant contained in them.
- Cylinders shall be kept in an appropriate position according to the instructions.
- Ensure that the refrigerating system is earthed prior to charging the system with refrigerant.
- Label the system when charging is complete (if not already).
- Extreme care shall be taken not to overfill the refrigerating system.
Prior to recharging the system, it shall be pressure-tested with the appropriate purging gas. The system shall be leak-tested on completion of charging but prior to commissioning. A follow up leak test shall be carried out prior to leaving the site.
RECOVERY
When removing refrigerant from a system, either for servicing or decommissioning, it is recommended good practice that all refrigerants are removed safely.
When transferring refrigerant into cylinders, ensure that only appropriate refrigerant recovery cylinders are employed. Ensure that the correct number of cylinders for holding the total system charge is available. All cylinders to be used are designated for the recovered refrigerant and labeled for that refrigerant (i.e. special cylinders for the recovery of refrigerant). Cylinders shall be complete with pressure-relief valve and associated shut-off valves in good working order. Empty recovery cylinders are evacuated and, if possible, cooled before recovery occurs.
The recovery equipment shall be in good working order with a set of instructions concerning the equipment that is at hand and shall be suitable for the recovery of the flammable refrigerant. If in doubt, the manufacturer should be consulted. In addition, a set of calibrated weighing scales shall be available and in good working order. Hoses shall be complete with leak-free disconnect couplings and in good condition.
The recovered refrigerant shall be processed according to local legislation in the correct recovery cylinder, and the relevant waste transfer note arranged. Do not mix refrigerants in recovery units and especially not in cylinders.
If compressors or compressor oils are to be removed, ensure that they have been evacuated to an acceptable level to make certain that flammable refrigerant does not remain within the lubricant. The compressor body shall not be heated by an open flame or other ignition sources to accelerate this process. When oil is drained from a system, it shall be carried out safely.
Blower Assembly Service and Removal
CAUTION
Before attempting to remove fan motors or motor mounts, place a piece of plywood over evaporator coils to prevent coil damage.
Vertical Configuration Units
For the vertical configuration, the blower assembly is designed to slide out to facilitate access and servicing of the blower/motor assembly. If removal of the blower assembly is required, such as when installation constraints prevent the use of the slide-out feature, follow these steps:
- Disconnect the motor power wires from the motor terminals before removing the motor from the unit.
- Shut off the main power supply to the unit and apply lock-out/tag-out procedures.
- Remove the three screws positioned above the motor. See Fig. 41.
- Drop down and slide off the welded pins situated on the opposite side from the motor. See Fig. 42.
Ensure all steps are followed for safe and efficient removal of the blower assembly.

Fig. 41 — Evaporator Coil Service on Vertical Units

Fig. 42 — Vertical Units Blower Assembly
Horizontal Configuration Units
For horizontal configurations, if removal of the blower assembly becomes necessary, follow these steps:
-
Disconnect the motor power wires from the motor terminals before removing the motor from the unit.
-
Shut off the main power supply to the unit and apply lock-out/tag-out procedures.
-
Remove the three screws located on the motor side of the blower assembly. See Fig. 43.
- Twist and pull blower back from welded pins located on opposite side to the motor, near the evaporator. See Fig. 43.
Ensure all steps are followed for safe and efficient removal of the blower assembly.

Fig. 43 — Horizontal Units Blower Assembly
Troubleshooting
When troubleshooting problems with a WSHP, consider the following.
UNIT PROTECTION MODULE (UPM)
All Carrier WSHPS are equipped with a 24-v low voltage control circuit. Units are selectable to be provided with no controls for control via a field installed thermostat or third party DDC or to be provided with a factory installed Carrier i-Vu DDC for advanced equipment control and monitoring. Regardless of the selection all units will be equipped with a unit protection module. The UPM board should be one of the first areas to start with troubleshooting an equipment issue. See Fig. 21. Refer to Step 9 — “Configure Unit Control Components” on page 21, UPM Configuration and Alarms.
Thermostatic Expansion Valves
Thermostatic expansion valves (TXV) are used as a means of metering the refrigerant through the evaporator to achieve a preset superheat at the TXV sensing bulb. Correct superheat of the refrigerant is important for the most efficient operation of the unit and for the life of the compressor. Refer to Fig. 44 for refrigerant diagram.
Packaged heat pumps typically use one bi-flow TXV to meter refrigerant in both modes of operation. When diagnosing possible TXV problems it may be helpful to reverse the refrigerant flow to assist with the diagnosis.
Geothermal and water source heat pumps are designed to operate through a wide range of entering-water temperatures that will have a direct effect on the unit refrigerant operating pressures. Therefore, diagnosing TXV problems can be difficult.
TXV FAILURE
The most common failure mode of a TXV is when the valve fails while closed. Typically, a TXV uses spring pressure to close the valve and an opposing pressure, usually from a diaphragm, to open the valve. The amount of pressure exerted by the diaphragm will vary, depending on the pressure inside of the sensing bulb. As the temperature of and pressure within the bulb decreases, the valve will modulate closed and restrict the refrigerant flow through the valve. The result is less refrigerant in the evaporator and an increase in the superheat. As the temperature at the bulb increases the diaphragm pressure will increase, which opens the valve and allows more refrigerant flow and a reduction in the superheat.
If the sensing bulb, connecting capillary, or diaphragm assembly are damaged, pressure is lost and the spring will force the valve to a closed position. Often, the TXV will not close completely so some refrigerant flow will remain, even if there is inadequate flow for the heat pump to operate.
The TXV sensing bulb must be properly located, secured, and insulated as it will attempt to control the temperature of the line to which it is connected. The sensing bulb must be located on a dedicated suction line close to the compressor. On a packaged heat pump, the bulb may be located almost any place on the tube running from the compressor suction inlet to the reversing valve. If the bulb is located on a horizontal section, it should be placed in the 10:00 or 2:00 position for optimal performance.
CAUTION
Use caution when tightening the strap. The strap must be tight enough to hold the bulb securely but caution must be taken not to over-tighten the strap, which could dent, bend, collapse or otherwise damage the bulb.
The bulb must be secured to the pipe using a copper strap. The use of heat transfer paste between the bulb and the pipe will also help ensure optimum performance.
The bulb must also be properly insulated to eliminate any influence on valve operation by the surrounding conditions. Cork tape is the recommended insulation as it can be molded tight to the bulb to prevent air infiltration.
Causes of TXV Failure
The most common causes of TXV failure are:
- A cracked, broken, or damaged sensing bulb or capillary can be caused by excessive vibration of the capillary during shipping or unit operation.
If the sensing bulb is damaged or if the capillary is cracked or broken, the valve is considered failed and must be replaced. Replacement of the TXV "power head" or sensing bulb, capillary, diaphragm assembly is possible on some TXVs. The power head assembly screws onto most valves, but not all are intended to be replaceable. If the assembly is not replaceable, replace the entire valve.
- Particulate debris within the system can be caused by several sources including contaminated components, tubing, and service tools, or improper techniques used during brazing operations and component replacement.
Problems associated with particulate debris can be compounded by refrigerant systems that use POE (polyester oil). POE oil has solvent-like properties that will clean the interior surfaces of tubing and components. Particulates can be released from interior surfaces and may migrate to the TXV strainer, which can lead to plugging of the strainer.
-
Corrosive debris within the system may happen after a failure, such as a compressor burn out, if system was not properly cleaned.
-
Non-condensables may be present in the system. Non-condensables includes any substance other than the refrigerant or oil such as air, nitrogen, or water. Contamination can be the result of improper service techniques, use of contaminated components, and/or improper evacuation of the system.
Symptoms
The symptoms of a failed TXV can be varied and will include one or more of the following:
• Low refrigerant suction pressure.
• High refrigerant superheat.
• High refrigerant subcooling.
• TXV and/or low pressure tubing frosting.
- Equalizer line condensing and at a lower temperature than the suction line or the equalizer line frosting.
- FP1 faults in the heating mode in combination with any of the symptoms listed above.
- FP2 faults in the cooling mode in combination with any of the symptoms listed above. Some symptoms can mimic a failed TXV but may actually be caused by another problem.
Before conducting an analysis for a failed TXV the following must be verified:
- Confirm that there is proper water flow and water temperature in the heating mode.
- Confirm that there is proper airflow and temperature in the cooling mode.
- Ensure coaxial water coil is clean on the inside; this applies to the heating mode and may require a scale check.
- Refrigerant may be undercharged. To verify, subcooling and superheat calculations may be required.
Diagnostics
Several tests may be required to determine if a TXV has failed. The following tools may be required for testing:
- Refrigerant gauge manifold compatible with the refrigerant in the system.
- Digital thermometer, preferably insulated, with wire leads that can be connected directly to the tubing.
- Refrigerant pressure-temperature chart for the refrigerant used.
To determine that a TXV has failed, verify the following:
- The suction pressure is low and the valve is non-responsive.
- The TXV sensing bulb can be removed from the suction line and warmed by holding the bulb in your hand. This action should result in an increase in the suction pressure while the compressor is operating. The sensing bulb can also be chilled by immersion in ice water, which should result in a decrease in the suction pressure while the compressor is operating. No change in the suction pressure would indicate a nonresponsive valve.
- Simultaneous LOW suction pressure, HIGH refrigerant subcooling and HIGH superheat.
- LOW suction pressure, LOW subcooling and HIGH superheat may indicate an undercharge of refrigerant. HIGH subcooling and LOW superheat may indicate an overcharge of refrigerant. The suction pressure will usually be normal or high if there is an overcharge of refrigerant.
- LOW suction pressure and frosting of the valve and/or equalizer line may indicate a failed valve. However, these symptoms may also indicate an undercharge of refrigerant. Calculate the subcooling and superheat to verify a failed valve or refrigerant charge issue.
Repair

WARNING
Most TXVs are designed for a fixed superheat setting and are therefore considered non-adjustable. Removal of the bottom cap will not provide access for adjustment and can lead to damage to the valve or equipment, unintended venting of refrigerant, personal injury, or possibly death.

CAUTION
Always recover the refrigerant from the system with suitable approved tools, recovery equipment, and practices prior to attempting to remove or repair any TXV.
IMPORTANT: Repair of any sealed refrigerant system requires training in the use of refrigeration tools and procedures. Repair should only be attempted by a qualified service technician. A universal refrigerant handling certificate will be required. Local and/or state license or certificate may also be required.

CAUTION
Disconnect power from unit before removing or replacing connectors, or servicing motor. Wait 5 minutes after disconnecting power before opening motor.
