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.

•
•
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.

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

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

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.

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.
LOSS OF CHARGE SWITCH
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 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,
