SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS Air-handling equipment is designed to provide safe and reli-

able service when operated within design specifications. To avoid

injury to personnel and damage to equipment or property when operating this equipment, use good judgment and follow safe practices as outlined below.

DANGER

NEVER enter an enclosed fan cabinet or reach into a unit while the fan is running. LOCK OPEN AND TAG the fan motor power disconnect switch before working on a fan. Take fuses with you and note removal on tag. Electric shock can cause personal injury or death. LOCK OPEN AND TAG the electric heat coil power dis- connect switch before working on or near heaters.

WARNING

CHECK the assembly and component weights to be sure that the rigging equipment can handle them safely. Note also, the centers of gravity and any specific rigging instructions. CHECK for adequate ventilation so that fumes will not migrate through ductwork to occupied spaces when weld- ing or cutting inside air-handling unit cabinet or plenum. WHEN STEAM CLEANING COILS be sure that the area is clear of personnel. DO NOT attempt to handle access covers and removable panels on outdoor units when winds are strong or gusting until you have sufficient help to control them. Make sure panels are properly secured while repairs are being made to a unit. DO NOT remove access panel fasteners until fan is com- pletely stopped. Pressure developed by a moving fan can cause excessive force against the panel which can injure personnel. DO NOT work on dampers until their operators are disconnected. BE SURE that fans are properly grounded before working on them.

INTRODUCTION

Unit Identification The 39L units are identified by the 18-digit part number listed on the serial plate. The part number de- scribes all component, coil, motor, drive, and control selections. See Fig. 1-9 for unit identification.

WARNING

DO NOT USE TORCH to remove any component. System contains oil and refrigerant under pressure. To remove a component, wear protective gloves and gog- gles and proceed as follows: a. Shut off electrical power to unit. b. Recover refrigerant to relieve all pressure from sys-

tem using both high-pressure and low pressure ports. c. Traces of vapor should be displaced with nitrogen

and the work area should be well ventilated. Refrig- erant in contact with an open flame produces toxic gases.

d. Cut component connection tubing with tubing cutter and remove component from unit. Use a pan to catch any oil that may come out of the lines and as a gage for how much oil to add to the system.

e. Carefully unsweat remaining tubing stubs when nec- essary. Oil can ignite when exposed to torch flame.

Failure to follow these procedures may result in personal injury or death.

CAUTION

DO NOT re-use compressor oil or any oil that has been exposed to the atmosphere. Dispose of oil per local codes and regulations. DO NOT leave refrigerant system open to air any longer than the actual time required to service the equipment. Seal circuits being serviced and charge with dry nitrogen to prevent oil contamination when timely repairs cannot be completed. Failure to follow these proce- dures may result in damage to equipment.

CAUTION

SECURE drive sheaves with a rope or strap before work- ing on a fan to ensure that rotor cannot free-wheel. DO NOT restore power to unit until all temporary walk- ways inside components have been removed. NEVER pressurize equipment in excess of specified test pressures. PROTECT adjacent flammable material when welding or flame cutting. Use sheet metal or asbestos cloth to contain sparks. Have a fire extinguisher at hand and ready for immediate use.

IMPORTANT: The installation of air-handling units and all associated components, parts, and accessories which make up the installation and subsequent maintenance shall be in accordance with the regulations of ALL authorities having jurisdiction and MUST conform to all applicable codes. It is the responsibility of the installing contractor to determine and comply with ALL applicable codes and regulations. Field-supplied motors should be Underwriters Laboratories (UL) or Canadian Standards Association (CSA) approved. Field wiring must comply with National Electrical Code (NEC) and all local requirements.

PREINSTALLATION 1. Check items received against packing list. Notify Carrier of

any discrepancy. 2. Refer to Fig. 10 for service area requirements. 3. To transfer unit from truck to storage site, refer to rigging de-

tails in Fig. 11 and section on unit rigging for proper han- dling. See Tables 1 and 2 for section and component weights.

4. Do not stack unit components or accessories during storage. Stacking can cause damage or deformation.

5. If unit is to be stored for more than 2 weeks prior to installa- tion, observe the following precautions: a. Choose a dry storage site that is reasonably level and

sturdy to prevent undue stress or permanent damage to the unit structure or components. Do not store unit on vibrating surface. Damage to stationary bearings can occur. Set unit off ground if in heavy rain area.

b. Remove all fasteners and other small parts from job- site to minimize theft. Tag and store parts in a safe place until needed.

c. Cover entire unit with a tarp or plastic coverall. Extend cover under unit if stored on ground. Secure cover with adequate tiedowns or store indoors. Be sure all coil connections have protective shipping caps.

d. Monthly Remove tarp from unit, enter fan sec- tion through access door or through fan inlet, and rotate fan and motor slowly by hand to redistribute the bearing grease and to prevent bearing corrosion.

Rigging (Fig. 11) All 39L units can be rigged by means of the lifting brackets on bottom of unit.

Units are shipped fully assembled. Do not remove shipping skids or protective covering until unit is ready for final placement. Use slings and spreader bars as applicable to lift unit. Do not lift unit by coil connections or headers.

Do not remove protective caps from coil piping connections until ready to connect piping.

Do not remove protective cover or grease from fan shaft until ready to install sheave.

Lay rigid temporary protection such as plywood walkways in unit to prevent damage to insulation or bottom panel during instal- lation.

Suspended Units Figure 12 shows overhead suspension of unit using optional factory-supplied suspension channels.

Each support channel consists of 2 pieces, the smaller of which fits inside the larger one. This allows the channel to be adjusted to the required length for installation.

Channels are shipped on top of the unit. The 2 sections of each channel are shipped one inside the other, and are held in place during shipping by the panel screws in the top panel.

Hardware required for installation of suspension channels is shipped in a package inside the fan section.

At least 2 suspension channels are shipped with each fan and coil unit. One or more extra channels will be supplied depending on the number of accessories ordered. Be sure to install all the sus- pension channels shipped with a unit. Refer to 39L Isolator Mounting (Suspended Unit) certified drawing for details.

To install suspension channels: 1. Remove panel screws to free suspension channels for instal-

lation. Replace screws in top panel. 2. Adjust channel to required length by sliding one channel sec-

tion inside the other. The channel must extend at least 9 in. but not more than 12 in. beyond the edge of the unit. Set length of channel by installing factory-supplied bolts through the overlapping channel sections.

3. Mount unit to suspension channel using factory-supplied nuts and bolts through 7/16-in. diameter holes in unit lifting bracket.

4. Install field-supplied suspension rods through 9/16-in. diame- ter holes provided at outer edges of channel. Be sure hanger rods are securely fastened in place.

Service Clearance Provide adequate space for unit ser- vice access (fan shaft and coil removal, filter removal, motor ac- cess, damper linkage access, etc.) as shown in Fig. 10.

Condensate Drain To prevent excessive build-up of condensate in drain pan, adequate trap clearance must be provided beneath the unit. See Installation, Condensate Drain section on page 16 for additional details.

External Vibration Isolators Install vibration isola- tors per certified drawings, and in accordance with the job specifi- cations and the instructions of the vibration isolator manufacturer. The coil piping must be isolated or have a flexible connection to avoid coil header damage because of unit motion. A flexible con- nection should be installed at the fan discharge.

Fig. 12 and 13 show isolation location for overhead suspension or floor mounting of unit.

CAUTION

If a fork lift truck is used, lift only from heavy end of skid. Minimum recommended fork length is 48 inches.

INSTALLATION

Base Rail Split A base rail split between the primary coil/ fan section and the accessory sections is optional. If this option has ben selected, the 39L unit will arrive at the job site assembled as one piece. The split allows the unit to be separated at the joint. If the unit must be separated in the field, follow this procedure: 1. Remove the lifting lugs on the inlet side of the coil/fan sec-

tion and those on the outlet side of the accessory section to liberate the T-bracket. See Fig 14.

2. Unscrew the flanges (top and sides) around the coil/fan sec- tion and the accessory section. See Fig. 15.

NOTE: If the section-to-section gasket installed at the factory is damaged while splitting the unit, obtain the required length of 1/8 in. x 1 1/4 in. foam gasketing locally.

After rejoining the split sections, fully tighten all AB 1/4 in.-3/4 in. screws on the flanges and the AB 1/4 in-5/8 in. screws on the flanges. See Fig. 16.

CAUTION

Ensure that a good seal is created between both sections before continuing. A poor seal may result in equipment dam- age.

Mixing Box DAMPER ACTUATORS The 39L mixing boxes are supplied with low leak dampers and blade and edge seals. Damper operat- ing torques are shown in Table 3.

The actuator and mounting brackets are field supplied and may be mounted inside or outside the unit. A typical inside mounting bracket is shown in Fig. 17. For external mounting of actuators, drill or punch a hole in the exterior panel. NOTE: If the unit is shipped with AirManager controls, actua- tor(s) are factory-supplied. Refer to Table 4.

To ensure torque is transmitted equally to both damper sec- tions, actuator must be connected to the 1-in. hollow jackshaft that drives the interconnecting linkage bar. Connection to any other shaft is not recommended. DUCTWORK ATTACHMENT Ductwork should be flanged out and attached to the mixing box panels as shown in Fig. 18. See Fig. 19 for duct connection sizes.

Condensate Drain Install a trapped condensate drain line at unit drain connection. Use 1-in. standard pipe.

Measure maximum design negative static pressure up- stream from the fan. Referring to Fig. 20, height H must be equal to or larger than negative static pressure at design operat- ing conditions. Prime enough water in trap to prevent losing seal (Differential 1). When the fan starts, Differential 2 is equal to the maximum negative static pressure.

Provide freeze-up protection and insulation as required.

Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) Variable fre- quency drives (VFDs) are used to modulate fan motor speed in response to air volume requirements. To vary the motor speed, a VFD changes the input frequency and line voltage into a wide range of frequency and voltage outputs, while maintain- ing a constant ratio of frequency to voltage.

Since 2001, all 1-hp and greater motors supplied by Carrier for the 39L series air handling units are designed and construct- ed for use with variable frequency drives. If a field-supplied motor is installed, ensure the motor is suitable for use with a VFD.

If the lead length from the VFD to the motor is greater than 25 ft, Shaft Grounding Rings (SGR) are necessary to help dis- sipate induced shaft voltages to ground and prevent motor bearing damage.

Install Fan Motor For field installation of motors, be sure electrical junction box is toward the center of the unit. This is necessary for drive and belts to be properly tightened. Use smallest slots in motor mounting base that will accommo- date motor and allow minimum overhang (Fig. 21). Be sure that motor holddown bolts are tight on field-installed motor. JUNCTION BOX CONDENSATE PREVENTION

When air handlers are installed outdoors in a high humidity environment or indoors where the apparatus room is used as a fresh air plenum, precautions must be taken to prevent conden- sation from forming inside the junction box of the internally mounted motor.

Standard installation practice is to mount the motor starter or fused disconnect box adjacent to the air handler and enclose the power wiring to the motor in flexible conduit.

The sheet metal housing of the disconnect switch or motor starter is not airtight (even when a box meeting NEMA [National Electrical Manufacturers Association] IV standards is used). Thus, warm moist air can migrate through the flexible conduit to the junction box on the motor. With the motor located inside the unit, the motor temperature is that of the cool

supply air; thus, condensate can form inside the junction box and, possibly, on the live terminal lugs.

To prevent the moist air from migrating through the conduit to the motor, seal the power wires inside the flexible conduit at the motor starter or fused disconnect.

Use a nonconductive, nonhardening sealant. Permagum (manufactured by Schnee Morehead) or sealing compound, thumb grade (manufactured by Calgon), are acceptable materials. POWER KNOCKOUTS Panels are not provided with knockouts for the fan motor power wiring. Openings must be drilled or punched in the exterior panels of the unit. It is recom- mended that power wiring be routed through the discharge panel whenever possible, as this panel is rarely removed for service access.

Install Sheaves on Motor and Fan Shafts Factory-supplied drives are prealigned and tensioned, however, Carrier recommends that you check the belt tension and align- ment before starting the unit. Always check the drive align- ment after adjusting belt tension.

When field installing or replacing sheaves, install sheaves on fan shaft and motor shaft for minimum overhang. (See Fig. 21.) Use care when mounting sheave on fan shaft; too much force may damage bearing. Remove rust-preventative coating or oil from shaft. Make sure shaft is clean and free of burrs. Add grease or lubricant to bore of sheave before installing.

The 39L fan, shaft, and drive pulley are balanced as a com- plete assembly to a high degree of accuracy. If excessive unit vibration is present after fan pulley replacement, the unit must be rebalanced. For drive ratio changes, always reselect the mo- tor pulley do not change the fan pulley.

ALIGNMENT Make sure that fan shafts and motor shafts are parallel and level. The most common causes of mis- alignment are nonparallel shafts and improperly located sheaves. Where shafts are not parallel, belts on one side are drawn tighter and pull more than their share of the load. As a result, these belts wear out faster, requiring the entire set to be replaced before it has given maximum service. If misalignment is in the sheave, belts will enter and leave the grooves at an angle, causing excessive belt cover and sheave wear. 1. Shaft alignment can be checked by measuring the

distance between the shafts at 3 or more locations. If the distances are equal, then the shafts will be parallel.

2. Sheave alignment: Fixed sheaves To check the location of the fixed sheaves on the shafts, a straightedge or a piece of string can be used. If the sheaves are properly lined up the string will touch them at the points indicated by the arrows in Fig. 22. Adjustable sheave To check the location of adjustable sheave on shaft, make sure that the centerlines of both sheaves are in line and parallel with the bearing support channel. See Fig. 22. Adjustable pitch drives are installed on the motor shaft.

3. Rotating each sheave a half revolution will determine whether the sheave is wobbly or the drive shaft is bent. Correct any misalignment.

4. With sheaves aligned, tighten cap screws evenly and pro- gressively. NOTE: There should be a 1/8-in. to 1/4-in. gap between the mating part hub and the bushing flange. If gap is closed, the bushing is probably the wrong size.

5. With taper-lock bushed hubs, be sure the bushing bolts are tightened evenly to prevent side-to-side pulley wobble. Check by rotating sheaves and rechecking sheave alignment. When substituting field-supplied sheaves for factory-sup- plied sheaves, consider that the fan shaft sheave has been factory balanced with fan and shaft as an assembly. For this

reason, substitution of motor sheave is preferable for final speed adjustment.

Install V-Belts When installing or replacing belts, always use a complete set of new belts. Mixing old and new belts will re- sult in the premature wear or breakage of the newer belts.

Refer to label on inside of fan access door for information on factory-supplied drive. 1. Always adjust the motor position so that V-belts can be in-

stalled without stretching over grooves. Forcing belts can re- sult in uneven stretching and a mismatched set of belts.

2. Do not allow belt to bottom out in sheave. 3. Tighten belts by turning motor-adjusting jackscrews. Turn

each jackscrew an equal number of turns. 4. Equalize belt slack so that it is on the same side of belt for all

belts. Failure to do so may result in uneven belt stretching. 5. Tension new drives at the maximum deflection force recom-

mended (Table 5). On current production, the correct tension information is list- ed on the fan drive label. For older equipment or units with field-modified drives, use the deflection formula in the fol- lowing example and the tension data from Table 5. EXAMPLE: Given

Belt Span 16 in. Belt Cross-Section A, Super Belt Small Sheave PD 5 in.

Solution a. From Table 5 find that deflection force for a new type

A, super belt with 5-in. small sheave PD is 8 lb. b.

Tension Measurement Procedure 1. Measure the belt span (see Fig. 23). 2. Position bottom of the large O-ring on the span scale at the

measured belt span.

Fig. 21 Determining Sheave-Shaft Overhang

Fig. 22 Sheave Alignment Deflection = (Belt Span)

64

Deflection = 16 64

18

3. Set the small O-ring on the deflection force scale to zero. 4. Place the tension checker squarely on one belt at the cen-

ter of the belt span. Apply a force on the plunger and per- pendicular to the belt span until the bottom of the large O- ring is even with the top of the adjacent (next) belt or with the bottom of a straight edge laid across the outside diam- eters of the v-belt sheaves.

5. Remove the tension checker and read the force applied from the bottom of the small O-ring on the deflection force scale.

6. Compare the force you have applied with the values giv- en in Table 5. The force should be between the Used Belt and New Belt values shown. The maximum val- ue is shown for New Belt and new belts should be ten- sioned at this value to allow for expected tension loss. New Belt tensions should be used at initial installation

and after job start or 1 to 3 minutes of operation. Used belts should be maintained at the value as indicated in the chart. Used Belt tensions should be used for the 8-hour and subsequent checks. If the belt span was measured in centimeters, then use the kilograms of force values for comparison.

NOTE: The ratio of deflection to belt span is 1:64 in either unit of measurement.

Whenever possible, jog start for a few revolutions or prefer- ably run drive for approximately 1 to 3 minutes and then re- tension in accordance with Steps 1-6. Running the drive for a few revolutions or minutes will help seat the belt(s) in the groove(s). This relatively early re-tensioning may reduce or minimize the amount of re-tensioning required in the first 24 hours of drive service. Record information on the label (Fig. 24) found on the door of the fan section.

Water and Steam Coil Piping Recommendations GENERAL Use straps around the coil casing or the lifting holes (see Fig. 25) to lift and place the coil.

Piping practices are outlined in the Carrier System Design Man- ual, Part 3, Piping Design. See Tables 6-7 for circuiting data. WATER COILS Typically, coils are piped by connecting the supply at the bottom and the return at the top. See Fig. 25. This is not always the case, especially if the coil hand has been changed in the field. Coils must be piped for counterflow; otherwise, a ca- pacity reduction of 5% for each coil row will result. To ensure counterflow, chilled water coils are piped so that the coldest water meets the coldest air. Hot water coils are piped so that the warmest water meets the warmest air. STEAM COILS Position the steam supply connection at the top of the coil, and the return (condensate) connection at the bot- tom. The coil tubes must incline downwards toward the return header connection for condensate drainage. See Fig. 26-30 and Table 8.

Figure 26 illustrates the normal piping components and the suggested locations for high, medium, or low-pressure steam coils. The low-pressure application (zero to 15 psig) can dispense with the -in. petcock for continuous venting located above the vacuum breaker (check valve).

CAUTION

To prevent damage to the coil or coil headers: Do not use the headers to lift the coil. Support the piping and coil connections independently. Do not use the coil connections to support pip- ing. When tightening coil connections, use a backup wrench on the nozzles.

20

Note the horizontal location of the 15-degree check valve, and the orientation of the gate/pivot. This valve is intended to relieve any vacuum forming in the condensate outlet of a condensing steam coil, and to seal this port when steam pressure is again sup- plied to the coil. It must not be installed in any other position, and should not be used in the supply line.

For coils used in tempering service, or to preheat outside air, in- stall an immersion thermostat in the condensate line ahead of the trap. This will shut down the supply fan and close the outdoor damper whenever the condensate falls to a predetermined point, perhaps 120 F. NOTE: Do NOT use an immersion thermostat to override a duct thermostat and open the steam supply valve.

For vacuum return systems, the vacuum breaking check valve would be piped into the condensate line between the trap and the gate valve instead of open to the atmosphere.

Figure 27 illustrates the typical piping at the end of every steam supply main. Omitting this causes many field problems and failed coils.

Figure 28 shows the typical field piping of multiple coils. Use this only if the coils are the same size and have the same pressure drop. If this is not the case, an individual trap must be provided for each coil.

Figure 29 shows a multiple coil arrangement applied to a grav- ity return, including the open air relief to the atmosphere, which DOES NOT replace the vacuum breakers.

Figure 30 illustrates the basic condensate lift piping. Following the piping diagrams in Fig. 26-30, make all connec-

tions while observing the following precautions: Install a drip line and trap on the pressure side of the inlet

control valve. Connect the drip line to the return line down- stream of the return line trap.

To prevent scale or foreign matter from entering the control valve and coil, install a 3/32-in. mesh strainer in the steam supply line upstream from the control valve.

Provide air vents for the coils to eliminate noncondensable gases.

Select a control valve according to the steam load, not the coils supply connection size. Do not use an oversized con- trol valve.

Do not use bushings that reduce the size of the header return connection. The return connection should be the same size as the return line and reduced only at the down- stream trap.

To lift condensate above the coil return line into overhead steam mains, or pressurized mains, install a pump and receiver between the condensate trap and the pressurized main. Do not try to lift condensate with modulating or on- and-off steam control valves. Use only 15-degree check valves, as they open with a lower water head. Do not use 45-degree or vertical-lift check valves.

Use float and thermostatic traps. Select the trap size accord- ing to the pressure difference between the steam supply main and the return main.

Load variations can be caused by uneven inlet air distribu- tion or temperature stratification.

Drain condensate out of coils completely at the end of the heating season to prevent the formation of acid.

Coil Freeze-Up Protection WATER COILS If a chilled water coil is applied with out- side air, provisions must be made to prevent coil freeze-up. Install a coil freeze-up thermostat to shut down the system if any air temperature below 36 F is encountered entering the water coil. Follow thermostat manufacturers instructions.

When a water coil is applied downstream of a direct- expansion (DX) coil, a freeze-up thermostat must be installed between the DX and water coil and electrically interlocked to turn off the cooling to prevent freeze-up of the water coil.

For outdoor-air application where intermittent chilled water coil operation is possible, one of the following steps should be taken: Install an auxiliary blower heater in cabinet to maintain

above-freezing temperature around coil while unit is shut down.

Drain coils and fill with an ethylene glycol solution suit- able for the expected cold weather operation. Shut down the system and drain coils. See Service section, Winter Shutdown, page 36.

STEAM COILS When used for preheating outdoor air in pressure or vacuum systems, an immersion thermostat to con- trol outdoor-air damper and fan motor is recommended. This control is actuated when steam supply fails or condensate tem- perature drops below an established level, such as 120 to 150 F. A vacuum breaker should also be used to equalize coil pressure with the atmosphere when steam supply throttles close. Steam should not be modulated when outdoor air is below 40 F.

On low-pressure and vacuum steam-heating systems, the thermostat may be replaced by a condensate drain with a ther- mal element. This element opens and drains the coil when con- densate temperature drops below 165 F. Note that condensate drains are limited to 5 psig pressure. INNER DISTRIBUTING TUBE STEAM COILS The inner distributing tube (IDT) steam coil used in the Carrier 39L air-handling units has an inner tube pierced to facilitate the dis- tribution of the steam along the tubes length. The outer tubes are expanded into plate fins. The completed assembly includes the supply and condensate header and side casings which are built to slant the fin/tube bundle back toward the condensate header. The slanting of the assembly ensures that condensate will flow toward the drains. This condensate must be removed through the return piping to prevent premature failure of the coil. The fin/tube bundle is slanted vertically for horizontal air- flow coils, and horizontally for vertical air-flow coils. IDT Steam Coil Piping The following piping guidelines will contribute to efficient coil operation and long coil life: 1. Use full size coil outlets and return piping to the steam

trap. Do not bush return outlet to the coil. Run full size to the trap, reduce at the trap.

2. Use float and thermostatic traps only for condensate re- moval. Trap size selection should be based on the differ- ence in pressure between the steam supply main and the

condensate return main. It is good practice to select a trap with 3 times the condensate rating of the coil to which it is connected.

3. Use thermostatic traps for venting only. 4. Use only 1/2-in., 15-degree swing check valves installed

horizontally, piped open to atmosphere, and located at least 12 in. above the condensate outlet. Do not use 45-degree, vertical lift and ring check valves.

5. The supply valve must be sized for the maximum antici- pated steam load.

6. Do not drip steam mains into coil sections. Drip them on the pressure side of the control valve and trap them into the return main beyond the trap for the coil.

7. Do not use a single trap for two or more coils installed in series. Where two or more coils are installed in a single bank, in parallel, the use of a single trap is permissible, but only if the load on each coil is equal. Where loads in the same coil bank vary, best practice is to use a separate trap for each coil. Variation in load on different coils in the same bank may be caused by several factors. Two of the most common are uneven airflow distribution across the coil and stratifi- cation of inlet air across the coil.

8. Do not try to lift condensate above the coil return into an overhead main, or drain into a main under pressure with a modulating or on/off steam control valves. A pump and receiver should be installed between the coil conden- sate traps and overhead mains and return mains under pressure.

9. Use a strainer (3/32-in. mesh) on the steam supply side, as shown in the piping diagrams, to avoid collection of scale or other foreign matter in the inner tube distributing orifices.

NOTE: IDT coils must be installed with the tubes draining toward the header end of the coil. Carrier's IDT steam coils are pitched toward the header end as installed in the unit. 10. Ensure the AHU (air-handling unit) is installed level to

maintain the inherent slope. Also ensure the unit is in- stalled high enough to allow the piping to be installed cor- rectly, especially the traps which require long drip legs.

11. Do not fail to provide all coils with the proper air vents to eliminate noncondensable gasses.

12. Do not support steam piping from the coil units. Both mains and coil sections should be supported separately.

IDT Steam Coil Installation Refer to drawings to position the coils properly with regard to the location of the supply and return connections. Ensure that the IDT coil is pitched with the tubes draining toward the header. Carriers AHUs provide proper coil pitch when the AHU is installed level.

Refer to schematic piping diagrams and piping connection notes for the recommended piping methods.

Refrigerant Piping, Direct-Expansion (DX) Coils (Fig. 31) Direct-expansion coils are divided into 2 or 4 splits depending upon the unit size and coil circuiting. See Table 9 for coil circuiting data. Each split requires its own distributor nozzle, expansion valve, and suction piping. Suction connections are on the air entering side when the coil is properly installed. Matching distributor connections for each coil split are on the air leaving side. See unit label or certified drawing to assure connection to matching suction and liquid connections. See Table 10 for distrib- utor part numbers.

Fig. 30 Condensate Lift to Overhead Return

CAUTION

Direct-expansion coils are shipped pressurized with dry air. Release pressure from each coil split through valves in protec- tive caps before removing caps. Do not leave piping open to the atmosphere unnecessarily. Water and water vapor are detrimental to the refrigerant sys- tem. Until the piping is complete, recap the system and charge with nitrogen at the end of each workday. Clean all piping connections before soldering joints. The lower split of face split coils should be first on, last off. Row split coils utilize special intertwined circuits (as shown in Fig. 31); either split of these row split coils can be first on, last off.

25

SUCTION PIPING Connect suction piping as shown in Fig. 32 for face split coil or Fig. 33 for row split coil.

Suction line from coil connection to end of the 15-diameter- long riser should be same tube size as coil connection to ensure proper refrigerant velocity.

Refer to Carrier System Design Manual, Part 3, and size re- maining suction line to compressor for a pressure drop equivalent to 2.0 F. This will provide a total suction line header pressure drop equivalent to approximately 2.5 F. Refer to Fig. 34 for piping ris- ers to the compressor.

To minimize the possibility of flooded starts and compressor damage during prolonged light load operation, install an accumu- lator in the suction line or a solenoid in the liquid line of last-on, first off split in row-split applications. EXPANSION VALVE PIPING Distributor nozzles sized for acceptable performance for a range of conditions are factory sup- plied. Use the AHU (Air-Handling Unit) selection program in the Carrier electronic catalog to select optimal nozzle sizes. Replace factory nozzle as necessary for best performance. See Fig. 35.

Thermostatic expansion valves are field supplied. See Fig. 35. NOTE: Be sure that correct nozzle is installed in each distributor before installing expansion valve. Before installing field-supplied nozzles, remove nozzle retainer rings and factory-installed mini- mum-sized nozzles from distributors. Install expansion valve (Fig. 35) as follows: 1. Wrap wet cloths around valve body to prevent excessive heat

from reaching diaphragm and internal parts. Do not allow water to enter system. Disassemble expansion valve before soldering, if accessible, for easy reassembly. Use 95-5 tin- antimony soft solder.

2. Solder expansion valve outlet directly to distributor unless: a. An adapter bushing or coupling is supplied by the fac-

tory (solder adapter to distributor first, then to expan- sion valve).

b. Hot gas bypass is required. (See Hot Gas Bypass sec- tion, below.)

3. Solder expansion valve equalizer line to suction line and lo- cate control bulb on suction line as in Fig. 32 or 33.

4. Insulate expansion valve body, diaphragm assembly and control bulb area to prevent charge migration and excessive condensation.

5. Install filter drier ahead of expansion valve to ensure satis- factory valve operation.

HOT GAS BYPASS When low-load operation requires use of hot gas bypass, hot gas must be introduced between expansion valve and distributor. See Table 11.

Install hot gas bypass connector (Fig. 36 and 37) in coil split that is first on, last off as follows: 1. Remove distributor nozzle and retainer ring (area A) from

distributor and reinstall in inlet (area B) of side connector. 2. Solder side connector outlet to distributor inlet, using silver

solder or equivalent with 1300 to 1500 F melt temperature. 3. Silver-solder expansion valve outlet to side connector inlet. 4. If required, install factory-supplied adapter bushing or cou-

pling to connector inlet before soldering to expansion valve outlet.

UNLOADING CONSIDERATIONS Direct expansion coils can have two intertwined refrigerant circuits. In addition, quarter, half, full and double circuiting configurations are offered to allow optimum system performance and oil return at full and part-load operation.

Circuiting selection should result in a circuit loading of 0.8 to 2.0 tons per circuit at design load. Circuit loading must be evaluat- ed at minimum load to ensure that it does not drop below 0.6 tons per circuit. Solenoid valves may be used, if necessary, to shut off the refrigerant supply to individual expansion valves to maintain adequate coil circuit loading.

Compressor minimum unloading and TXV quantity is neces- sary to determine minimum tonnage per circuit.

Minimum Unloading Equation:

Example: Condensing Unit: 38ARS012 Minimum Unloading:33% Coil: 6 row, 11 FPI, Half Circuit Coil Tons/Circuit: 1.68 Total TXVs: 2

In the first example we will determine the tons/circuit when both TXVs are active and the compressor is unloaded to its mini- mum of 33%.

= .55 tons/circuit at minimum unloading UNACCEPTABLE If we install a liquid line solenoid valve before one of the

TXVs and close it so that only one TXV is active when the com- pressor is unloaded to its minimum of 33%, we see the follow- ing:

= 1.10 tons/circuit at minimum unloading ACCEPTABLE

SPECIAL PIPING WITH 4 SPLITS PER COIL Manifolding for 2-Face Splits Refer to Fig. 38 and externally manifold as follows: 1. Connect the 4 expansion valves to the 4 distributors on each

coil and connect the 4 suction lines to the 15-diameter-long risers as outlined in previous piping instructions.

2. Install common liquid line for upper face split to first (upper) and second expansion valves. Also, install a common suc- tion line from suction lines attached to first (upper) and sec- ond suction header connections.

3. Repeat Step 2 for lower face split using third and fourth dis- tributor and suction connections.

Manifolding for 2-Row Splits Refer to Fig. 39 and externally manifold as outlined for the 2-face splits with the following exceptions: 1. Manifold in pairs, the first and third coil connections for one

split. 2. Manifold the second and fourth pairs of coil connections for

the other split. NOTE: Split section using first and third pairs of coil connections should be first on, last off for coils with right hand (facing direc- tion of airflow) connections and the reverse for left hand connec- tions. Hot Gas Bypass Connection with 4 Splits per Coil For ei- ther face or row splits connect a hot gas bypass auxiliary side con- nector to each distributor of coil split that is first on, last off. Refer to installation instructions for Hot Gas Bypass.

Electric Heaters Electric heaters may be factory installed or drop shipped to the jobsite and field installed. The heater can only be installed in the preheat-electric section.

To install electric heater, refer to Fig. 40 and proceed as follows: 1. Locate preheat-electric section already mounted on unit and

remove protective shipping cover. 2. Locate crate containing electric heater and verify heater

matches the unit. Unit hand and heater hands must agree. 3. Remove both knockout slugs (power and signal). Install con-

duit connectors in top of coil connection box. 4. Remove top panel of the preheat-electric section and drill or

punch 2 holes are specified in Fig. 40. 5. Insert the electric heater into unit. It must slide between 2 an-

gles located on the bottom of the section. 6. Secure heater to the preheat-electric section using 4 screws. 7. Locate top panel of section. Run conduit through top panel

and tighten conduit connectors. Lower top panel and replace panel on unit.

8. Complete wiring per wiring diagram and job requirements. Follow all applicable local codes.

CONNECT POWER AND CONTROL WIRES Heater wiring schematic is located on control box panel. (Figure 41 shows typical wiring details.) Electrical data for each standard heater arrangement is shown in Table 12. Verify that minimum airflow requirement (minimum coil face velocity, fpm) will be met, especially on appli- cations where variable air volume is supplied.

Use copper power supply wires rated for 75 C minimum. On 250-v or greater applications, use 600-v rated wiring. Size wires to carry 125% of current load on each set of terminals (Table 12). Use the following formulas as required: Single-phase line current

Three-phase line current

(kW per set of terminals) (1000) = (voltage) (1.73) Note that if the heater is rated at 50 kW (or more) and is con- trolled by a cycling device such as a multi-stage thermostat, or a step controller, conductors may be sized at 100% of load amperes (as in Tables 12 and 13) per National Electrical Code (NEC) Sec- tion 424-22. Heater construction and application information (Tables 12 and 13) are based upon Underwriters Laboratories (UL) Space Heating Standard No. 1096 and the requirements of the NEC. Installer is responsible for observing local code requirements.

Install a disconnect switch or main circuit breaker in accor- dance with NEC and other applicable codes. Locate so that it is easily accessible and within sight of heater control box (per NEC Article 424-19 and 424-65).

Weatherproof junction boxes have no knockouts for wire en- trance. Drill or punch holes for conduit as required and make all junctions watertight.

Where field-supplied thermostats are used, isolate circuits to prevent possible interconnection of control circuit wiring.

Where field-supplied step controller is used, connect steps to terminals as marked on wiring schematic. When connecting multi- stage heaters, wire stage no. 1 so that it is first stage on, last stage off. Connect thermostats as required.

Provide sufficient clearance for convection cooling of heaters with solid-state controllers. Provide at least 5-in. of free air space above and below cooling fins extending from heater terminal box. Be sure to connect interlock terminals F1 and F2 to auxiliary con- tacts on fan starter.

Each heater has 2 different types of factory-installed thermal cutouts for overtemperature protection; an automatic reset thermal cutout for primary protection and a manual reset thermal cutout to protect against failure of the primary system. Also provided is an airflow pressure differential switch to prevent the heater from op- erating when the fan is not in operation or airflow is restricted or insufficient. The primary automatic reset cutout is a bi-metal disk- type cutout. It is wired into the control circuit which operates the magnetic disconnecting contactors (the same contactors which also switch on and off the various steps of the coil). The secondary manual reset cutout is a bi-metal disk-type cut-out. This secondary thermal cutout is load carrying and is installed in each heater sub- circuit. The primary and secondary overtemperature protection systems are independent of each other. The secondary system is designed to protect against possible failure of the primary system to deenergize the heater.

Subcircuits in the heaters are designed in compliance with paragraph 424-22 of the NEC. The coil is subdivided into circuits that draw no more than 48 amps each and is fused for at least 125% of the circuit rating.

Pitot tube is to be positioned so that the airflow switch is actu- ated by a minimum negative pressure of 0.07 in. wg.

Table 13 Field Wiring for Incoming Conductors Sized for 125% of Heater Load

LEGEND

*Values are based on Table 310-16 of the NEC (National Electrical Code) for 75 C insulated copper wire. Not more than 3 conductors in a raceway.

NOTES: 1. Be sure to consider length of wiring run and possible voltage drops

when sizing wires. 2. Field power wiring Heaters are furnished with a terminal block

sized for incoming copper conductors with 75 C insulation rated to carry at least 125% of the heater load. However, conductors can be sized to carry 100% of the heater load if the heater is rated at 50 kW or more, and the heater is controlled by a cycling device such as a multi-stage thermostat, step controller, or SCR (silicon control rectifier) power controller. Terminal blocks and knockouts are sized to handle either 100% or 125% conductors.

Discharge Modification If field modification of dis- charge position is required, 39L fans can be converted (by a skilled mechanic) to any standard hand and discharge without any

additional parts. (NOTE: This does not apply to a model change conversion.) All mounting holes are prepunched.

To convert a 39L fan, note the following: 1. Sizes 03-18 w See Fig. 42. It is not necessary to remove

the bearing support channels from the fan housing. Sizes 21 and 25 See Fig. 43. The A frame support must be removed. To change from upblast to horizontal discharge or from horizontal to upblast discharge, the bearings must be relocated to keep the wheel centered in the housing. To change from upblast front (UBF) to upblast rear (UBR) or from top horizontal front (THF) to top horizontal rear (THR) or vice versa, turn the entire fan housing 180 degrees about its base.

2. The fan shaft may be driven out and reinstalled to place the drive pulley on the opposite end.

3. The fan scroll is prepunched for horizontal or vertical dis- charge to match the support angles at the base of the unit.

4. The motor and motor base may be rotated to place the motor at the front or rear of the unit. Proper location is that which results in the longest drive center line distance. The motor conduit box location may need to be reversed.

5. When hand of fan is changed, it may be necessary to turn the discharge panel inside-out to fit correctly with the fan dis- charge. In this case, remove the existing insulation and in- stall new duct-liner type insulation on the opposite side of the discharge panel.

6. Rebalancing of the unit is recommended.

6. Check fan speed with a strobe-type tachometer or use the following formula: Obtain the motor rpm from the fan motor nameplate and read sheave pitch diameters marked on the fan and motor pulleys, or estimate the pitch diameters by us- ing the pulley outside diameters. Then:

Example: Actual Approximate

Nameplate Motor Rpm = 1760 1760

Mtr Sheave Pitch Diameter = 8.9 in. 9.0 (OD)

Fan Sheave Pitch Diameter = 12.4 in. 12.5 (OD)

Fan Rpm = 1760 x 8.9 1760 x 9 = 12.4 12.5 = 1263 Rpm 1267 Rpm

Refer to Table 1, Physical Data for maximum allowable fan speeds for standard wheels. Excessive fan speed may result in condensate carryover from cooling coil or fan motor over- load and wheel failure.

7. Check direction of rotation (see Fig. 45). Arrow on drive side of fan housing indicates correct direction of rotation.

8. Check vibration. If excessive vibration occurs, check for the following: a. Variable sheave (if air balance of system has been

accomplished: replace sheave with fixed sheave for continuous application).

b. Drive misalignment. c. Mismatched, worn or loose belts. d. Wheel or sheaves loose on shaft. e. Loose bearings. f. Loose mounting bolts. g. Motor out of balance. h. Sheaves eccentric or out of balance. i. Vibration isolators improperly adjusted. j. Out-of-balance or corroded wheel (rebalance or

replace if necessary). k. Accumulation of material on wheel (remove excess

material). COILS Chilled Water Coil Typical coil vents, drains, and lifting points are shown in Fig. 25.

SERVICE

General 1. Place a suitable walkway to protect floor insulation whenev-

er entering the fan section. 2. Review Safety Considerations at beginning of these instruc-

tions. Good safety habits are important tools when perform- ing service procedures.

3. To make speed measurements, use a strobe-style tachometer or calculate per Step 6 of Start-Up, Check List on page 35.

Fan Motor Replacement 1. Shut off motor power. 2. Disconnect and tag power wires at motor terminals. 3. Loosen motor brace-to-mounting-rail attaching bolts. Loos-

en belt tensioning bolts to adjust the motor position so V- belts can be removed without stretching over grooves.

4. Mark belt as to position. Remove and set aside belts. 5. Remove motor to motor bracket holddown bolts. 6. Remove motor pulley and set aside. 7. Remove motor. 8. Install new motor. Reassemble by reversing Steps 1-6. Be

sure to reinstall multiple belts in their original position. Use a complete new set if required. Do not stretch belts over sheaves. Review the sections on motor and sheave installa- tion, sheave alignment and belt tensioning discussed previ- ously (Fig. 21-23).

9. Reconnect motor leads and restore power. Check fan for proper rotation as described in Start-Up, Check List on page 35.

Coil Cleaning DETERGENT Spray mild detergent solution on coils with garden-type sprayer. Rinse with fresh water. Check to ensure con- densate line is free. Excess water from cleaning may flood unit if condensate line is plugged. STEAM Remove coil to facilitate cleaning and prevent dam- age to unit insulation. See Coil Removal section on page 37.

Winter Shutdown (Chilled Water Coil Only) It is recommended that auxiliary drain piping be added to coil piping if yearly winterizing of coils is anticipated. This auxiliary piping should be located at the highest and lowest point on the respective header connection for each coil. ANTIFREEZE METHODS OF COIL PROTECTION 1. Close coil water supply and return valves. 2. Drain coil as follows:

Method I Break flange of coupling at each header loca- tion. Separate flange or coupling connection to facilitate coil draining. Method II Open both valves to auxiliary drain piping.

3. After coil is drained, Method I, connect line with a service valve and union from upper nozzle to an antifreeze reservoir. Connect a self-priming reversible pump between the low header connection and the reservoir. Method II, make con- nection to auxiliary drain valves.

4. Fill reservoir with any inhibited antifreeze acceptable to code and underwriter authority.

5. Open service valve and circulate solution for 15 minutes; then check its strength.

6. If solution is too weak, add more antifreeze until desired strength is reached, then circulate solution through coil for 15 minutes or until concentration is satisfactory.

7. Remove upper line from reservoir to reversible pump. Drain coil to reservoir and then close service valve.

8. Break union and remove reservoir and its lines. 9. Leave coil flanges or coupling open and auxiliary drain

valves open until spring. AIR DRYING METHOD OF COIL PROTECTION (Unit and coil must be level for this method.) 1. Close coil water supply and return main valves. 2. Drain coil as described in procedures for Antifreeze Methods

of Coil Protection. 3. Connect air supply or air blower to inlet header connection

and close its drain connection. 4. Circulate air and check for air dryness by holding mirror in

front of open vent in outlet header drain connection. Mirror will fog if water is still present.

5. Allow coil to stand for a few minutes; repeat step 4 until coil is dry.

Changing Coil Hand NOTE: Electric heat coil hand cannot be changed. NOTE: The coil cover panel is not part of the coil. Remove cover panel from end of unit. New holes must be cut in coil cover panel. Original holes must be plugged and insulated. New side panels may be necessary when changing coil hand. NU-FIN COILS The NuFin coil is airflow direction sensitive, especially when used in dehumidifying applications. Hydronic versions are counterflow circuited for full gravity draining when installed level.

Correct installation will result in the typical bottom inlet on leaving air face and top outlet on entering air face of coil, a self- venting design. This will ensure cold air contact with cold water, and warm air with hot water.

Coil repositioning for opposite hand application will compro- mise one or more of these characteristics. However, there will be those situations where this may prove acceptable.

As a general rule, a change from counterflow circuiting to par- allel flow for sensible heating and cooling applications will result in a 5% drop in net capacity per row of coil. In one and two row heating coils, the actual drop may not be measurable, thus of insig- nificant consequence.

It is important that the airflow direction of the NuFin coil be adhered to when latent cooling is possible. Significant mois- ture carryover from the face of the dehumidifying coil will result if this rule is violated, even at very low face velocities. The same result is often experienced if after-market fin coat- ings are applied.

If a NuFin hydronic coil is installed with correct airflow, but opposite piping hand, and counterflow is maintained, steps must be taken to ensure that the coil is continuously vented, and that the water velocity is maintained to prevent the coil from air-binding.

Hot or cold areas of the coil face (or otherwise broad tem- perature differences and stratification) are usually indications that one or more circuits are air-locked internally. This can result in coil freeze-up (a condition NOT covered by warranty).

Refrigerant coils may be rotated for opposite hand applica- tions, maintaining the proper airflow direction.

Do not reposition the distributor(s), they will perform equal- ly well in upflow or downflow positions. When soldering expansion valves to up-feed distributors, use the minimum satisfactory amount of solder to prevent damaging the valve or plugging passages. DIRECT EXPANSION COILS Rotate the coil in vertical plane and reinstall. Distributor must be on downstream side of coil. (Refer to Fig. 51). CHILLED WATER AND HOT WATER COILS These coils can be rotated. If coil is rotated in vertical plane and reinstalled with counterflow maintained, supply will be at the top of the coil and return will be at the bottom. Ensure coil is continuously vented and water velocity is maintained to prevent air binding.

STEAM INNER DISTRIBUTING TUBE COILS Rotate in horizontal plane and reinstall. See Fig. 51. PIPING Direct expansion, chilled water, and hot water coils should always be piped for counterflow. (Fluid should enter the coil at the leaving-air side.) Steam coils must have the condensate connection at bottom of coil.

To determine intervals for cleaning coils in contaminated air operations, pressure taps should be installed across the coils and checked periodically. Abnormal air pressure drop will indi- cate a need for cleaning the coils. Annual maintenance should include: 1. Clean the line strainers. 2. Blow down the dirt leg. 3. Clean and check operation of steam traps. 4. Check operation of control valves. 5. Check the operation of check valves to prevent conden-

sate flowback. 6. Check operation of thermostatic air vents, if used. A float

and thermostatic trap will contain a thermostatic air vent. When the bellows is ruptured, it will fail closed.

7. Check operation of vacuum breakers. 8. Check operation of the thermal protection devices used

for freeze-up protection. 9. Steam or condensate should not be allowed to remain in

the coil during the off season.This will prevent the forma- tion and build up of acids.

There are additional precautions and control strategies, as found in various catalogues and in the ASHRAE Fundamentals

Handbook and in the Carrier System Design Guide Piping Section, when the entering-air temperature to the coil falls be- low 35 F. These conditions occur when IDT coils are used for pre-heat and/or face and bypass applications. Freeze up protection: 1. Use a strainer in the supply line and the dirt leg ahead of

the trap.

2. Use a vacuum breaker in the return. 3. Do not use overhead returns from the coil. A floodback

can occur. 4. An immersion thermostat to control outdoor-air dampers

and the fan motor is recommended. This control is acti- vated when the steam supply fails or the condensate temperature drops below a predetermined temperature, usually 120 F.

5. On low pressure and vacuum systems, the immersion thermostat may be replaced by a condensate drain with a thermal element. This element opens and drains the coil when the condensate temperature drops below 165 F. Note the thermal condensate drain is limited to 5 psig pressure. At greater coil pressures they will not open.

In spite of the precautions listed above, a coil may still freeze up. An oversize capacity coil, at partial load, with a modulating steam control valve will occasionally freeze. Freezing occurs in the 20 F to 35 F range of entering-air temperatures. A better installation would be an undersize coil, with an on/off control valve with thermostatic control in the outside air, set at 35 F air temperature, installed downstream of the first coil; or setting the minimum steam pressure at 5 psig.

Filters FILTER SECTIONS See Table 14 for filter data. Filters are field supplied.

Flat filter section can use 2-in. or 4-in. thick filters. The flat filter section as shipped accepts 2-in. filters. Remove spacer in each filter track to provide the 4-in. space required to accom- modate 4-in. filters.

On all filter sections, filters are pushed into the track until they touch the opposite side of the unit. Any remaining space is taken up by the adjustable 2-piece sheet metal spacer. See Fig. 52 for filter arrangements.

CAUTION

Chilled and hot water coils must not be rotated horizon- tally. If coils are rotated horizontally, severe water blow-off will result.

Fan Sled Disassembly in some cases on vertical units (39LD, 39 LF, or 39LH), it may be necessary to remove the fan sled (Fig. 55) from the unit and break it down into smaller components.

To remove the fan sled: 1. Disconnect the fan discharge by removing the screws from

the discharge of the fan housing. Remove the fan discharge panel (Fig. 56).

2. Remove all of the panels from the fan section (Fig. 57). 3. Remove the fan by removing the 4 screws on the corner of

the fan sled. On larger units the fan sled may be extremely heavy. Affix appropriate rigging to remove the required components, noting on a diagram where each component is attached. See Fig. 58.

NOTE: Reinstall the components in reverse order.
