Lifting point should be directly over the center of gravity for the unit. Step 6—Connect Condensate Drain NOTE: When installing condensate drain connection be sure to comply with local codes and restrictions. Models 50GS and 50GX dispose of condensate water through a 3/4 in. NPT fitting which exits through the base on the evaporator coil access s[...]

CONFIGURING UNITS FOR DOWNFLOW (VERTICAL) DIS- CHARGE Before performing service or maintenance operations on the system, turn off main power to unit and install lockout tag or electrical shock could result. 1. Open all electrical disconnects and install lockout tag before starting any service work. 2. Remove return duct cover located on duct panel [...]

5. It is recommended that the unit base insulation around the perimeter of the vertical return-air opening be secured to the unit base with aluminum tape. Applicable local codes may require aluminum tape to prevent exposed fiberglass. 6. Cover both horizontal duct openings with the duct covers from the accessory duct cover kit. Ensure opening is ai[...]

Failure to follow these precautions could result in damage to the unit being installed: 1. Make all electrical connections in accordance with NEC ANSI/NFPA (latest edition) and local electrical codes governing such wiring. In Canada, all electrical connec- tions must be in accordance with CSA standard C22.1 Canadian Electrical Code Part 1 and appli[...]

Run the low-voltage leads from the thermostat, through the inlet hole, and into unit low-voltage splice box. Locate five 18-gage wires leaving control box. These low-voltage connection leads can be identified by the colors red, green, yellow, brown, and white (See Fig. 10). Ensure the leads are long enough to be routed into the low-voltage splice b[...]

leak. Leak test all refrigerant tubing connections using electronic leak detector, halide torch, or liquid-soap solu- tion. If a refrigerant leak is detected, see Check for Refrigerant Leaks section. c. Inspect all field- and factory-wiring connections. Be sure that connections are completed and tight. d. Ensure electrical wiring does not contact r[...]

When evaluating the refrigerant charge, an indicated adjust- ment to the specified factory charge must always be very minimal. If a substantial adjustment is indicated, an abnormal condition exists somewhere in the cooling system, such as insufficient airflow across either coil or both coils. Proceed as follows: 1. Remove caps from low- and high-pr[...]

c. On all units remove blower assembly from unit. Remove screws securing blower to blower partition and slide assembly out. Be careful not to tear insulation in blower compartment. d. Ensure proper reassembly by marking blower wheel and motor in relation to blower housing before disassembly. e. Loosen setscrew(s) that secures wheel to motor shaft, [...]

CONDENSER COIL, EVAPORATOR COIL, AND CONDEN- SATE DRAIN PAN Inspect the condenser coil, evaporator coil, and condensate drain pan at least once each year. The coils are easily cleaned when dry; therefore, inspect and clean the coils either before or after each cooling season. Remove all obstructions, including weeds and shrubs, that interfere with [...]

System under pressure. Relieve pressure and recover all refrigerant before system repair or final unit disposal to avoid personal injury or death. Use all service ports and open all flow-control devices, including solenoid valves.
