are field-installed and must be removed from the indoor blower  
compartment prior to start-up, even if they are not used for  
installation.  
Step 6—Provide for Condensate Disposal  
NOTE: Be sure that condensate-water disposal methods comply  
with local codes, restrictions, and practices.  
When designing and installing ductwork, consider the following:  
Unit removes condensate through a 1 3/64-in. ID hole (using  
3/4-in. OD piping or tubing) which is located at the end of the unit.  
See Fig. 2 for location of condensate connection.  
UNIT DAMAGE HAZARD  
Failure to follw this caution may result in damage to unit  
components. When connecting ductwork to units, do not drill  
deeper than 3/4 inch in shaded area shown in Fig. 3 or coil  
may be damaged.  
19.17  
3.92  
All units should have field-supplied filters installed in the  
return-air side of the unit. Recommended sizes for filters are  
shown in Table 2.  
Avoid abrupt duct size increases and reductions. Abrupt change  
in duct size adversely affects air performance.  
IMPORTANT: Use flexible connectors between ductwork and  
unit to prevent transmission of vibration. Use suitable gaskets to  
ensure weathertight and airtight seal. When electric heat is  
installed, use fire proof canvas (or similar heat resistant material)  
connector between ductwork and unit discharge connection. If  
flexible duct is used, insert a sheet metal sleeve inside duct. Heat  
resistant duct connector (or sheet metal sleeve) must extend 24–in.  
from the unit discharge connection flange into the ductwork.  
Size ductwork for cooling air quantity (cfm). The minimum air  
quantity for proper electric heater operation is listed in Table 3.  
Heater limit switches may trip at air quantities below those  
recommended.  
A05195  
Insulate and weatherproof all external ductwork. Insulate and  
cover with a vapor barrier all ductwork passing through  
conditioned spaces. Follow latest Sheet Metal and Air Condi-  
tioning Contractors National Association (SMACNA) and Air  
Conditioning Contractors Association (ACCA) minimum in-  
stallation standards for residential heating and air conditioning  
systems.  
Secure all ducts to building structure. Flash, weatherproof, and  
vibration-isolate duct openings in wall or roof according to  
good construction practices.  
Fig. 3—Area Not to Be Drilled More Than 3/4-in.  
Condensate water can be drained directly onto the roof in rooftop  
installations (where permitted) or onto a gravel apron in ground-  
level installations. Install a field-supplied condensate trap at end of  
condensate connection to ensure proper drainage. Make sure that  
the outlet of the trap is at least 1 in. lower than the drain-pan  
condensate connection to prevent the pan from overflowing. Prime  
the trap with water. When using a gravel apron, make sure it slopes  
away from the unit.  
Figure 4 shows a typical duct system with 50ZHA unit installed.  
CONVERTING HORIZONTAL DISCHARGE UNITS TO  
DOWNFLOW (VERTICAL) DISCHARGE  
If the installation requires draining the condensate water away  
from the unit, install a 2-in. trap using a 3/4-in. OD tubing or pipe.  
(See Fig. 5 and 6.) Make sure that the outlet of the trap is at least  
1 in. lower than the unit drain-pan condensate connection to  
prevent the pan from overflowing. Prime the trap with water.  
Connect a drain tube using a minimum of 3/4-in. PVC, 3/4-in.  
CPVC, or 3/4-in. copper pipe (all field supplied). Do not undersize  
the tube. Pitch the drain tube downward at a slope of at least 1 in.  
for every 10 ft of horizontal run. Be sure to check the drain tube  
for leaks. Prime trap at the beginning of the cooling season  
start-up. Allowable glues for condensate trap connection are:  
Standard ABS, CPVC, or PVC cement.  
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD  
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury  
or death.  
Before performing service or maintenance operations on  
system, turn off main power to unit and install lockout tag.  
Turn off accessory heater power switch if applicable.  
Units are dedicated side supply products. They are not convertible  
to vertical air supply. A field-supplied plenum must be used to  
convert to vertical air discharge.

Step 7—Install Electrical Connections  
UNIT DAMAGE HAZARD  
Failure to follow these precautions may result in damage to  
the unit being installed:  
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD  
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 applicable local  
codes. Refer to unit wiring diagram.  
2. Use only copper conductor for connections between  
field-supplied electrical disconnect switch and unit. DO  
NOT USE ALUMINUM WIRE.  
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury  
or death.  
The unit cabinet must have an uninterrupted, unbroken  
electrical ground to minimize the possibility of personal  
injury if an electrical fault should occur. This ground may  
consist of an electrical wire connected to the unit ground in  
the control compartment, or conduit approved for electrical  
ground when installed in accordance with NEC (National  
Electrical Code), ANSI (American National Standards  
Institute)/NFPA (latest edition) (in Canada, Canadian Elec-  
trical Code CSA C22.1) and local electrical codes.  
3. Be sure that high-voltage power to unit is within operating  
voltage range indicated on unit rating plate.  
4. Insulate low-voltage wires for highest voltage contained  
within conduit when low-voltage control wires are run in  
same conduit as high-voltage wires.  
5. Do not damage internal components when drilling through  
any panel to mount electrical hardware, conduit, etc.  
Consult local power company for correction of improper  
voltage.  
HIGH-VOLTAGE CONNECTIONS  
The unit must have a separate electrical service with a field-  
supplied, waterproof disconnect switch mounted at, or within sight  
from the unit. Refer to the unit rating plate for maximum  
fuse/circuit breaker size and minimum circuit amps (ampacity) for  
wire sizing. See Table 6 for electrical data.  
The field-supplied disconnect may be mounted on the unit over the  
high-voltage inlet hole. (See Fig. 2.)

b. Inspect for oil at all refrigerant tubing connections and on  
unit base. Detecting oil generally indicates a refrigerant  
leak. Leak-test all refrigerant tubing connections using  
electronic leak detector, or liquid-soap solution. If a refrig-  
erant leak is detected, see following Check for Refrigerant  
Leaks section.  
a. Make sure that outdoor-fan blade is correctly positioned in  
fan orifice. Top edge of blade should be 3.125 in. down  
from outdoor coil outlet grille (size 024–048, See Fig. 12)  
or hub should be 0.708-in. away from motor end bell (size  
060, See Fig. 13). See Outdoor Fan Adjustment section.  
b. Make sure that air filter is in place.  
c. Inspect all field- and factory-wiring connections. Be sure  
that connections are completed and tight. Ensure wires do  
not contact refrigerant tubing or sheet metal edges.  
c. Make sure that condensate drain trap is filled with water to  
ensure proper drainage.  
d. Make sure that all tools and miscellaneous loose parts have  
been removed.  
d. Inspect coil fins. If damaged during shipping and handling,  
carefully straighten fins with a fin comb.  
3. Verify the following conditions:

UNIT DAMAGE HAZARD  
Failure to follow this caution may result in unit component  
damage.  
Complete the required procedures given in the Pre-Start- Up  
section this page before starting the unit. Do not jumper any  
safety devices when operating the unit.  
Do not operate the compressor in cooling mode when the  
outdoor temperature is below 40 F.  
Do not rapid-cycle the compressor. Allow 5 minutes between  
‘‘on’’ cycles to prevent compressor damage.  
CHECKING COOLING CONTROL OPERATION  
Start and check the unit for proper cooling control operation as  
follows:  
1. Place room thermostat SYSTEM switch in OFF position.  
Observe that blower motor starts when FAN switch is placed  
in ON position and shuts down within 60 seconds (for  
024-042) or 90 seconds (for 048 and 060) when FAN switch  
is placed in AUTO position.  
2. Place SYSTEM switch in COOL position and FAN switch in  
AUTO position. Set cooling control below room temperature.  
Observe that compressor, outdoor fan, and indoor blower  
motors start and that reversing valve shifts. Observe that  
cooling cycle shuts down when control setting is satisfied.  
Reversing valve (RV) remains energized.  
A05198  
Fig. 7—Unit Electrical Connection  
3. Place system switch in HEAT position. Observe that compres-  
sor, indoor fan and outdoor fan energize (Reversing Valve is  
deenergized in heat pump heating mode). Set control above  
room temperature. Observe that heating cycle shuts down  
when control setting is satisfied.  
4. When using an automatic changeover room thermostat, place  
both SYSTEM and FAN switches in AUTO. positions.  
Observe that unit operates in Cooling mode when temperature  
control is set to ‘‘call for cooling’’ (below room temperature),  
and unit operates in Heating mode when temperature control  
is set to “call for heating” (above room temperature).  
Step 3—Refrigerant Charge  
Refrigerant Charge — Amount of refrigerant charge is listed on  
unit nameplate and in Table 2. Refer to Carrier Refrigerant Service  
Techniques Manual, Refrigerants section. Unit panels must be in  
place when unit is operating during charging procedure. Unit must  
operate a minimum of 15 minutes before checking charge.

Air delivery values are based on operating voltage of 230-v., dry coil, without filter or electric heater. Deduct wet coil, filter, and electric heater pressure drops to obtain  
external static pressure availabe for ducting.  
Do not operate the unit at a cooling airflow that is less than 350 cfm for each 12,000 Btuh of rated cooling capacity. Evaporator coil frosting may occur at airflows below  
this point.  
Dashes indicate portions of the table that are beyond the blower motor capacity or are not recommended.  
This overload may require up to 60 minutes (or longer) to reset;  
therefore, if the internal overload is suspected of being open,  
disconnect the electrical power to the unit and check the circuit  
through the overload with an ohmmeter or continuity tester.

Step 6—Sequence of Operation  
FAN OPERATION  
Step 5—Unit Controls  
The FAN switch on the thermostat controls indoor fan operation.  
When the FAN switch is placed in the ON position, the IFR  
(indoor-fan relay) is energized through the G terminal on the  
thermostat. The normally-open contacts close, which then provide  
power to the indoor (evaporator) fan motor (IFM). The IFM will  
run continuously when the FAN switch is set to ON.  
All compressors have the following internal-protection controls.  
HIGH-PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE  
This valve opens when the pressure differential between the low  
and high side becomes excessive.

When the FAN switch is set to AUTO, the thermostat deenergizes  
the IFR (provided there is not a call for cooling). The contacts open  
and the IFM is deenergized. The IFM will be energized only when  
there is a call for cooling, in heat pump heating mode or if the unit  
is equipped with accessory electric heat, the indoor-fan motor will  
also run while the accessory electric heat is energized.  
Located on the outdoor liquid line is a low-pressure switch which  
functions as a loss-of-charge switch. This switch contains a  
Schrader core depressor. This switch opens at 7 psig and closes at  
22 psig. No adjustment is necessary.  
COMPRESSOR OVERLOAD  
This overload interrupts power to the compressor when either the  
current or internal temperature become excessive, and automati-  
cally resets when the internal temperature drops to a safe level.  
NOTE: Some units are equipped with a time-delay relay. On  
these units, the indoor fan remains on for 30 seconds after G or Y  
is deenergized.

COOLING OPERATION (SIZES 024-042)  
heating (Y2) energizes switching the compressor into high stage  
heating through energizing an internal solenoid valve inside the  
scroll compressor and switching the indoor fan into high stage. The  
auxiliary or backup heat is controlled by a third stage (W2). If the  
demand is not met, W3 is energized in case of staged heating.  
When heating demand is satisfied, W3, W2 and Y2 sequentially  
de-energize switching the compressor and the indoor fan into low  
stage heating. When the low stage heating demand is met, Y1  
de-energizes shutting the compressor, indoor fan and the outdoor  
fan.  
With a call for cooling (Y/Y2), the indoor fan energizes immedi-  
ately whereas the contactor energizes after a 5 minute time delay  
(in case of initial start-up) starting the compressor and the outdoor  
fan motor. When the cooling demand is met, Y/Y2 de-energizes,  
shutting the compressor, indoor fan and the outdoor fan.  
COOLING OPERATION (SIZES 048 AND 060)  
These units utilize a 2 stage indoor thermostat. With a first stage  
call for cooling (Y1), the indoor fan (low stage) energizes  
immediately whereas the contactor energizes after a 5 minute time  
delay (in case of an initial start-up) starting the compressor (low  
stage) and the outdoor fan motor. If the low stage operation cannot  
satisfy the cooling demand, the second stage cooling (Y2) ener-  
gizes switching the compressor into high stage cooling through  
energizing an internal solenoid valve inside the scroll compressor  
and switching the indoor fan into high stage. When second stage  
cooling is satisfied, Y2 de-energizes switching the compressor and  
the indoor fan into low stage cooling. When the low stage cooling  
demand is met, Y1 de-energizes shutting the compressor, indoor  
fan and the outdoor fan.  
CONTINUOUS FAN  
With the continuous Indoor fan option selected on the thermostat,  
G is continuously energized. In case of 024-042 units, the selected  
airflow setting is provided. In case of 048 and 060 units, the  
system runs low stage (Y1) airflow for continuous fan operation.  
DEFROST  
Defrost board (DB) is a time and temperature control, which  
includes a field-selectable time period between checks for defrost  
(30, 60, 90 and 120 minutes). The time period is factory-set at 60  
minutes and should only be adjusted by a trained service person.  
Electronic timer and defrost cycle start only when contactor is  
energized and defrost thermostat (DFT) is closed.  
HEATING OPERATION (SIZES 024-042)  
With a call for heating (Y1), the indoor fan (low stage) energizes  
immediately whereas the contactor energizes after a 5 minute time  
delay (in case of initial start-up) starting the compressor and the  
outdoor fan motor. If Y/Y2 cannot satisfy the heating demand, the  
auxiliary or backup heat (W2) energizes. In case of staged heating,  
W3 is energized if the demand is not met. The highest airflow  
selected is run while the electric heat is in operation. When heating  
demand is met, W3, W2 and Y/Y2 sequentially de-energize  
shutting the compressor, indoor fan and the outdoor fan.  
Defrost mode is identical to Cooling mode. The outdoor fan motor  
stops because of “OF1” and “OF2” contacts opening on the defrost  
board, a bank of optional electric heat turns on to warm air  
supplying the conditioned space.  
ELECTRIC RESISTANCE HEATING  
If accessory electric heaters are installed, on a call for “Emergency  
Heat” the thermostat energizes W which energizes the heater relay  
and in turn energizes the electric heaters. The IFR is energized  
which starts the indoor-fan motor. If the heaters are staged, W2 is  
energized when the second stage of heating is required. When the  
need for heating is satisfied, the heater and IFM are de-energized.  
HEATING OPERATION (SIZES 048 AND 060)  
With a first stage call for heating (Y1), the indoor fan (low stage)  
energizes immediately whereas the contactor energizes after a 5  
minute time delay (in case of initial start-up) starting the compres-  
sor (low stage) and the outdoor fan motor. If the low stage  
oepration cannot satisfy the heating demand, the second stage

Step 9—Metering Devices  
Refrigerant cooling metering device is an Accurator (024-042) or  
TXV (048 and 060) located upstream of the indoor coil distributor  
assembly. Refrigerant heating mode metering device is an Accu-  
rater located upstrem of the outdoor coil distributor assembly.

Step 10—Lubrication  
COMPRESSOR—The compressor is charged with the correct  
amount of oil at the factory.  
Fig. 13—Outdoor-Fan Adjustment (060 Size)  
After inspecting the electrical controls and wiring, replace all the  
panels. Start the unit, and observe at least one complete cooling  
cycle to ensure proper operation. If discrepancies are observed in  
operating cycle, or if a suspected malfunction has occurred, check  
each electrical component with the proper electrical instrumenta-  
tion. Refer to the unit wiring label when making these checkouts.  
FAN MOTOR BEARINGS—Fan motor bearings are perma-  
nently lubricated. No further lubrication of outdoor or indoor fan  
motors is required.  
Step 11—Liquid Line Strainer  
The liquid line strainer (to protect metering device) is made of wire  
mesh and is located in the liquid line on the inlet side of the  
metering device.  
NOTE: Refer to the Sequence of Operation section, as an aid in  
determining proper control operation.  
Check valves are also located in the liquid lines near the strainers.  
The Strainers are the larger of the two components.  
Step 7—Refrigerant Circuit  
Inspect all refrigerant tubing connections and the unit base for oil  
accumulations annually. Detecting oil generally indicates a refrig-  
erant leak.  
Step 12—High Flow Valves  
Located on the compressor hot gas and suction tubes are High  
Flow Valves. Large black plastic caps distinguish these valves  
with O-rings located inside the caps. These valves cannot be  
accessed for service in the field. Ensure the plastic caps are in  
place and tight or the possibility of refrigerant leakage could occur.  
If oil is detected or if low cooling performance is suspected,  
leak-test all refrigerant tubing using an electronic leak-detector, or  
liquid-soap solution. If a refrigerant leak is detected, refer to Check  
for Refrigerant Leaks section. (See Table of Contents for page  
number.)  
TROUBLESHOOTING  
If no refrigerant leaks are found and low cooling performance is  
suspected, refer to Refrigerant Charge. (See Table of Contents for  
page number.)  
Use the Troubleshooting Cooling and Heating guide if problems  
occur with these units.  
START-UP CHECKLIST  
Step 8—Indoor Airflow  
Use the Start-Up checklist to ensure proper start-up procedures are  
followed.  
The cooling airflow does not require checking unless improper  
performance is suspected. If a problem exists, be sure that all  
supply- and return-air grilles are open and free from obstructions,
