If the 4SCU16LT unit is being installed with a new indoorcoil and line set, the refrigerant connections should bemade as outlined in this section. If an existing line set and/or indoor coil will be used to complete the system, refer tothis section as well as the section that follows entitledFlushing Existing Line Set and Indoor Coil.

If this unit is being matched with an approved line set orindoor coil which was previously charged with R22 refriger-ant, the line set and coil must be flushed prior to installation.If the unit is being used with an existing indoor coil whichwas equipped with a liquid line which served as a meteringdevice (RFCI), the liquid line must be replaced prior to theinstallation of the 4SCU16LT unit.

Field refrigerant piping consists of liquid and suction linesfrom the outdoor unit (sweat connections) to the indoorcoil (flare or sweat connections).

Refrigerant can be harmful if inhaled. Refrigerantmust always be used and recovered responsibly.Incorrect or irresponsible use of refrigerant canresult in personal injury or death.

Select line set diameters from Table 2 to ensure that oil returnto the compressor. Size vertical suction riser to maintainminimum velocity at minimum capacity. Recommended linelength is 50’ or less. If more than 50’ line set is required,contact Technical Services.

Table 2 shows the diameters for line sets up to 100’ althoughvertical lift applications and trapping requirements need tobe reviewed with Technical Services for line sets over 50’.

Installing Refrigerant Line

During the installation of an air conditioning system, it isimportant to properly isolate the refrigerant line to preventunnecessary vibration. Line set contact with the structure(wall, ceiling, or floor) may cause objectionable moise whenvibration is translated into sound. As a result, more energyor vibration can be expected. Close attention to line setisolation must be observed. If refrigeration lines are routedthrough a wall, seal and isolate the opening so vibration isnot transmitted to the building.

Following are some points to consider when placing andinstalling a high-efficiency outdoor unit:

Placement

Be aware that some localities are adopting sound ordinancesbased on how noisy the unit is at the neighbor’s home, notat the original installation. Install the unit as far as possiblefrom the property line. When possible, do not install the unitdirectly outside a bedroom window. Glass has a very highlevel of sound transmission. Figure 4 shows how to placethe outdoor unit and line set to reduce line set vibration.

Line Set Isolation

Illustrations on the following pages demonstrate procedureswhich ensure proper refrigerant line set isolation. Figure 5shows how to install line sets on horizontal runs. On page6, Figure 6 shows how to make a transition from horizontalto vertical and Figure 7 shows how to install line sets onvertical runs.

Brazing Connection Procedure

1. Cut ends of refrigerant lines square (free from nicks ordents). Debur the ends. The pipe must remain round; donot pinch end of line.

2. Before making line set connections, use dry nitrogen topurge the refrigerant piping. This will help to preventoxidation and the introduction of moisture into the system.

3. Use silver alloy brazing rods (5% or 6% silver alloy forcopper-to-copper brazing or 45% silver alloy for

Flushing Existing Line Set and Indoor Coil

This procedure should not be performed on systemswhich contain contaminants, such as compressorburn out.

Flushing Procedure

IMPORTANT: The line set and/or indoor coil must beflushed with at least the same amount of refrigerant thatpreviously charged the system. Check the charge in theflushing cylinder before flushing the unit.

1. Remove existing R22 refrigerant using the appropriateprocedure.

If the existing outdoor unit is not equipped with shutoffvalves, or if the unit is not operational AND the existingR22 refrigerant will be used to flush the system:

Disconnect all power to the existing outdoor unit.Connect the existing unit, a clean recovery cylinder, andthe recovery machine according to the instructionsprovided with the recovery machine. Remove all R22refrigerant from the existing system. Refer to thegauges after shutdown to confirm that the entire systemis completely void of refrigerant. Disconnect the liquidand suction lines from the existing outdoor unit.

If the existing outdoor unit is equipped with manualshutoff valves AND new R22 refrigerant will be usedto flush the system:

Start the existing R22 refrigerant system in cooling modeand close the liquid line valve. Pump all the existing R22refrigerant back into the outdoor unit.

Required Equipment

The following equipment is needed to flush the existingline set and indoor coil (see Figure 8): Two clean R22recovery bottles, an oil-less recovery machine with a“pump down” feature, and two sets of gauges (one for usewith R22 and one for use with R410A).

Figure 8

Flushing Connections

Note: The inverted R22 cylinder must containat least the same amount of refrigerantas was recovered from the existingsystem.

When flushing existing line set and/or indoorcoil, be sure to empty all existing traps. Residualmineral oil can act as an insulator, preventingproper heat transfer. It can also clog the thermalexpansion valve, reducing system performanceand capacity. Failure to properly flush system asexplained in these instructions will void warranty.

CAUTION

(It may be necessary to bypass the low pressureswitches to ensure complete refrigerant evacuation.)

When the low side system pressures reach 0 psig, closethe suction line valve. Disconnect all power to theexisting outdoor unit. Refer to the gauges after shutdownto confirm that the valves are not allowing refrigerant toflow back into the low side of the system. Disconnect theliquid and suction lines from the existing outdoor unit.

2. Remove the existing outdoor unit. Set the new R410Aunit and follow the brazing connection procedureoutlined previously on this page to make line setconnections. Do not install the R410A thermalexpansion valve at this time.

3. Make low voltage and line voltage connections to thenew outdoor unit. Do not turn on power to the unit oropen the outdoor unit service valves at this time.

4. Remove the existing R-22 refrigerant flow controlorifice or thermal expansion valve before continuingwith flushing procedures. R-22 flow control devicesare not approved for use with R410A refrigerant andmay prevent proper flushing. Use a field-providedfitting to reconnect the lines.

5. Remove the pressure tap valve cores from the4SCU16LT unit’s service valves. Connect an R-22cylinder with clean refrigerant to the suction servicevalve. Connect the R-22 gauge set to the liquid linevalve and connect a recovery machine with an emptyrecovery tank to the gauge set.

6. Set the recovery machine for liquid recovery and startthe recovery machine. Open the gauge set valves toallow the recovery machine to pull a vacuum on theexisting system line set and indoor coil.

7. Invert the cylinder of clean R-22 and open its valve toallow liquid refrigerant to flow into the system throughthe suction line valve. Allow the refrigerant to passfrom the cylinder and through the line set and theindoor coil before it enters the recovery machine.

8. After all of the liquid refrigerant has been recovered,switch the recovery machine to vapor recovery so thatall of the R-22 vapor is recovered. Allow the recoverymachine to pull a vacuum on the system.

NOTE: A single system flush should remove all of themineral oil from the existing refrigerant lines and indoorcoil. A second flushing may be done (using cleanrefrigerant) if insufficient amounts of mineral oil wereremoved during the first flush. After each systemflush, allow the recovery machine to pull a vacuumon the system at the end of the procedure.

9. Close the valve on the inverted R22 cylinder and thegauge set valves. Pump the remaining refrigerant outof the recovery machine and turn the machine off.

10. Use nitrogen to break the vacuum on the refrigerant linesand indoor coil before removing the recovery machine,gauges, and R22 refrigerant drum. Re-install pressure tapvalve cores into the 4SCU16LT unit’s service valves.

11. Install a thermal expansion valve approved for use withR410A refrigerant in the liquid line at the indoor coil.

Refrigerant Metering Device

4SCU16LT units are designed for use with TXV systems only.

Expansion valves equipped with Chatleff-type fittings areavailable from the manufacturer. See Table 3 for properTXV for each unit.

To install an expansion valve (see Figure 9):

1. Separate the distributor assembly and remove thepiston orifice and used teflon seal. Insert nozzle end ofthe expansion valve along with a new teflon seal into thedistributor and tighten to 20 – 30 ft. lbs. Use backupwrench on all wrench flats. Overtightening will crushthe teflon seal and may cause a leak.

2. Attach liquid line portion of distributor assembly alongwith new teflon seal to the inlet of the expansionvalve. Tighten to 20 – 30 ft. lbs. Use backup wrenchon all wrench flats. Overtightening will crush theteflon seal and may cause a leak.

3. Connect the external equalizer line to the equalizerport on the suction line and tighten to 8 ft. lbs.

4. Strap the superheat sensing bulb to the suction header.

If installing an expansion valve on an indoor coil thatpreviously used a fixed orifice, be sure to remove theexisting fixed orifice. Failure to remove a fixed orificewhen installing an expansion valve to the indoor coil willresult in improper operation and damage to the system.

To Close Liquid or Suction Line Service Valve:

1. Remove the stem cap with an adjustable wrench.

2. Use a service wrench with a hex-head extension to turnthe stem clockwise to seat the valve. Tighten firmly.

3. Replace the stem cap. Tighten finger tight, thentighten an additional 1/6 turn.

Suction Line (Ball Type) Service Valve

Suction line (ball type) service valves function the sameway as the other valves; the difference is in the construc-tion (see Figure 11 on page 10).

The ball valve is equipped with a service port with afactory-installed Schrader valve. A service port capprotects the Schrader valve from contamination andserves as the primary seal.

Manifold Gauge Set

Manifold gauge sets used with systems charged withR410A refrigerant must be capable of handling the highersystem operating pressures. The gauges should be ratedfor use with pressures 0 – 800 on the high side and a lowside of 30" vacuum to 250 psi with dampened speed to500 psi. Gauge hoses must be rated for use at up to 800psi of pressure with a 4000 psi burst rating.

Liquid and Suction Line Service Valves

The liquid line and suction line service valves and serviceports are used for leak testing, evacuating, charging, andchecking charge.

Each valve is equipped with a service port which has afactory-installed Schrader valve (see Figure 10). A serviceport cap protects the Schrader valve from contaminationand serves as the primary leak seal.

To Access the Schrader Port:

1. Remove the service port cap with an adjustable wrench.

2. Connect gauge to the service port.

3. When testing is completed, replace service port cap.Tighten finger tight, then an additional 1/6 turn.

To Open Liquid or Suction Line Service Valve:

1. Remove stem cap with an adjustable wrench.

2. Use a service wrench with a hex-head extension toback the stem out counterclockwise as far as it willgo. Use a 3/16" hex head extension for liquid lineservice valves and a 5/16" extension for suction lineservice valves.

3. Replace the stem cap. Tighten finger tight, thentighten an additional 1/6 turn.

Leak Testing

After the line set has been connected to the indoor andoutdoor units, the line set connections and indoor unitmust be checked for leaks.

Figure 11

2. With both manifold valves closed, connect the cylin-der of R410A refrigerant. Open the valve on theR410A cylinder (vapor only).

3. Open the high pressure side of the manifold to allowR410A into the line set and indoor unit. Weigh in atrace amount of R410A. (A trace amount is a maxi-mum of 2 oz. of refrigerant or 3 lbs. pressure.) Closethe valve on the R410A cylinder and the valve on thehigh pressure side of the manifold gauge set. Discon-nect the R410A cylinder.

4. Connect a cylinder of nitrogen with a pressure regulat-ing valve to the center port of the manifold gauge set.When using high pressure gas such as nitrogenfor this purpose, be sure to use a regulator thatcan control the pressure down to 1 or 2 psig.

5. Adjust nitrogen pressure to 150 psig. Open the valveon the high side of the manifold gauge set to pressur-ize the line set and the indoor coil.

6. After a short period of time, open a refrigerant port tomake sure that an adequate amount of refrigerant hasbeen added for detection (refrigerant requirements willvary with lengths). Check all joints for leaks. Purgenitrogen and R410A mixture. Correct any leaks andrecheck.

Evacuation

Evacuating the system of noncondensables is critical forproper operation of the unit. Noncondensables are definedas any gas that will not condense under temperatures andpressures present during operation of an air conditioningsystem. Noncondensables and water vapor combine withrefrigerant to produce substances that corrode copperpiping and compressor parts.

Using an Electronic Leak Detector

1. Connect the high pressure hose of the manifoldgauge set to the suction valve service port. (Normallythe high pressure hose is connected to the liquid lineport; however, connecting it to the suction ports helpsto protect the manifold gauge set from damagecaused by high pressure.)

Use a thermocouple or thermistor electronic vacuumgauge that is calibrated in microns. Use an instrument thatreads down to 50 microns.

1. Connect the manifold gauge set to the service valveports as follows:

• Low pressure gauge to suction line service valve• High pressure gauge to liquid line service valve

Do not use a compressor to evacuate a sys-tem. Avoid deep vacuum operation. Extremelylow vacuums can cause internal arcing andcompressor failure. Danger of equipmentdamage. Damage caused by deep vacuumoperation will void warranty.

WARNING

Ball Type Service Valve(Valve Open)

Use adjustable wrench. To open, rotate stemcounterclockwise 1/4 turn (90°). To close, rotatestem clockwise 1/4 turn (90°).

Fire, Explosion, and Personal Safety Hazard.

Failure to follow this warning could result indamage, personal injury, or death.

Never use oxygen to pressurize or purgerefrigeration lines. Oxygen, when exposed toa spark or open flame, can cause damage byfire and/or an explosion, that could result inpersonal injury or death.

2. Connect micron gauge.

3. Connect the vacuum pump (with vacuum gauge) tothe center port of the manifold gauge set.

4. Open both manifold valves and start vacuum pump.

5. Evacuate the line set and indoor unit to a minimum of 500microns or lower. During the early stages of evacuation, itis desirable to close the manifold gauge valve at leastonce to determine if there is a rapid rise in pressure. Arapid rise in pressure indicates a relatively large leak. Ifthis occurs, the leak testing procedure must be repeated.

6. When 500 microns or lower is maintained, close themanifold gauge valves, turn off the vacuum pump, anddisconnect the manifold gauge center port hose fromthe vacuum pump. Attach the manifold gauge centerport hose to a nitrogen cylinder with pressure regulatorset to 150 psig and purge the hose. Open the manifoldgauge valves to break the vacuum in the line set andindoor unit. Close the manifold gauge valves.

7. Shut off the nitrogen cylinder and remove the manifoldgauge hose from the cylinder. Open the manifoldgauge valves to release the nitrogen from the line setand indoor unit.

8. Reconnect the manifold gauge to the vacuum pump,turn the pump on, and continue to evacuate the lineset and indoor unit until 500 microns is maintainedwithin a 20-minute period after shutting off thevacuum pump and closing the manifold gauge valves.

9. When the requirements above have been met,disconnect the manifold hose from the vacuum pump.Open the service valves to break the vacuum in theline set and indoor unit.

If the system is void of refrigerant, clean the system usingthe procedure described below.

1. Use dry nitrogen to pressurize the system and checkfor leaks. Repair leaks, if possible.

2. Evacuate the system to remove as much of themoisture as possible.

3. Use dry nitrogen to break the vacuum.

4. Evacuate the system again.

5. Weigh the appropriate amount of R410A refrigerant(listed on unit nameplate) into the system.

6. Monitor the system to determine the amount ofmoisture remaining in the oil. Use a test kit to verifythat the moisture content is within the kit’s dry colorrange. It may be necessary to replace the filter drierseveral times to achieve the required dryness level. Ifsystem dryness is not verified, the compressorwill fail in the future.

The outdoor unit should be charged during warm weather.However, applications arise in which charging must occurin the colder months. The method of charging is deter-mined by the outdoor ambient temperature.

Measure the liquid line temperature and the outdoorambient temperature as outlined below:

1. Connect the manifold gauge set to the service valveports as follows:

• Low pressure gauge to suction line service valve• High pressure gauge to liquid line service valve

START-UP

1. Rotate fan to check for frozen bearings or binding.

2. Inspect all factory and field-installed wiring for looseconnections.

3. After evacuation is complete, open liquid line andsuction line service valves to release refrigerantcharge (contained in outdoor unit) into system.

4. Replace the stem caps and secure finger tight, thentighten an additional 1/6 of a turn.

5. Check voltage supply at the disconnect switch. Thevoltage must be within the range listed on the unitnameplate. If not, do not start equipment until thepower company has been consulted and the voltagecondition corrected.

6. Set thermostat for cooling demand, turn on power toindoor blower and close the outdoor unit disconnectswitch to start the unit.

7. Recheck unit voltage with unit running. Power must bewithin range shown on unit nameplate.

Refrigerant Charging

This system is charged with R410A refrigerant whichoperates at much higher pressures than R22. The liquid linedrier provided with the unit is approved for use with R410A.Do not replace it with one designed for use with R22. Thisunit is NOT approved for use with coils which usecapillary tubes as a refrigerant metering device.

R410A refrigerant cylinders are rose colored. Refriger-ant should be added through the vapor valve in theliquid state.

Certain R410A cylinders are identified as beingequipped with a dip tube. These allow liquid refriger-ant to be drawn from the bottom of the cylinderwithout inverting the cylinder. Do not turn this type ofcylinder upside down to draw refrigerant.

Units are factory charged with the amount of R410Arefrigerant indicated on the unit rating plate. This charge isbased on a matching indoor coil and outdoor coil with 15'line set. For varying lengths of line set, refer to Table 4 forrefrigerant charge adjustment.

If unit is equipped with a crankcase heater, itshould be energized 24 hours before unitstart-up to prevent compressor damage as aresult of slugging.

CAUTION

Mineral oils are not compatible with R410A. Ifoil must be added, it must be a polyol ester oil.

IMPORTANT

Refrigerant Charge Adjustment

* If line length is greater than 15 ft., add this amount.If line length is less than 15 ft., remove this amount.

2. Close manifold gauge set valves. Connect the centermanifold hose to an upright cylinder of R410A.

3. If room temperature is below 70°F, set the room thermo-stat to call for heat. This will create the necessary loadfor properly charging the system in the cooling cycle.

4. Use a digital thermometer to record the outdoorambient temperature.

5. When the heating demand has been satisfied, switchthe thermostat to cooling mode with a set point of68°F. When pressures have stabilized, use a digitalthermometer to record the liquid and suction linetemperatures.

6. The outdoor temperature will determine which charg-ing method to use. Proceed with the appropriatecharging method.

Charge Using Weigh-In Method

If the system is void of refrigerant, or if the outdoor ambienttemperature is cool, first locate and repair any leaks thenuse the weigh-in method to charge the unit.

1. Recover the refrigerant from the unit.

2. Conduct a leak check, then evacuate as previouslyoutlined.

3. Weigh in the charge according to the total amountshown on the unit nameplate.

If weighing facilities are not available, use one of thefollowing procedures to charge the unit.

Charge Using Subcooling Method –Outdoor Temperatures Below 65°F

When the outdoor ambient temperature is below 65°F, thesubcooling method can be used to charge the unit. It maybe necessary to restrict the air flow through the outdoorcoil to achieve pressures in the 200-250 psig range.These higher pressures are necessary for checking thecharge. Block equal sections of air intake panels andmove obstructions sideways until the liquid pressure is inthe 200-250 psig range (see Figure 12).

1. With the manifold gauge hose on the liquid serviceport and the unit operating stably, use a digital ther-mometer to record the liquid line temperature.

2. At the same time, record the liquid line pressure reading.

3. Use the temperature/pressure chart (Table 5 on page 14)to determine the saturation temperature for the liquid linepressure reading.

4. Subtract the liquid line temperature from the satura-tion temperature (according to the chart) to determinesubcooling.

_____ ° Saturation Temperature °F

_____ ° Liquid Line Temperature °F

_____ ° Subcooling Value °F

=

5. Compare the subcooling value with those shown inTable 6 on page 14. If subcooling is greater thanshown, recover some refrigerant. If subcooling is lessthan shown, add some refrigerant.

Charge Using Approach Method –Outdoor Temperatures 65°F or Above

The following procedure is intended as a general guideand is for use on expansion valve systems only. For bestresults, indoor temperature should 70°F to 80°F. Monitorsystem pressures while charging.

1. Record outdoor ambient temperature using a digitalthermometer.

2. Attach high pressure gauge set and operate unit forseveral minutes to allow system pressures to stabilize.

3. Compare stabilized pressures with those provided inTable 8 on page 15. Minor variations in these pres-sures may be expected due to differences in installa-tions. Significant differences could mean that thesystem is not properly charged or that a problemexists with some component in the system.Pressures higher than those listed indicate that thesystem is overcharged. Pressures lower than thoselisted indicate that the system is undercharged. Verifyadjusted charge using the approach method.

4. Use the same digital thermometer to check liquid linetemperature.

5. Subtract the outdoor ambient temperature from theliquid line temperature to determine the approachtemperature.

6. Compare the approach value with those shown inTable 7. If the values to do not agree with thoseprovided in Table 7, add refrigerant to lower theapproach temperature or recover refrigerant from thesystem to increase the approach temperature.

Check Charge Using Normal Operating Pressures

Use Table 8 to perform maintenance checks. Table 8 isnot a procedure for charging the system. Minor variationsin these pressures may be due to differences in installa-tions. Significant deviations could mean that the system isnot properly charged or that a problem exists with somecomponent in the system.

OPERATION

Outdoor unit and indoor blower cycle on demand from theroom thermostat. When the thermostat blower switch ismoved to the ON position, the indoor blower operatescontinuously.

System Diagnostic Module

4SCU16LT units contain a diagnostic module for trouble-shooting air conditioning system failures. By monitoringand analyzing data from the compressor and thermostatdemand, the module can accurately detect the cause ofelectrical and system related failure without any sensors.If a system problem occurs, a flashing LED indicatorcommunicates the failure code.

LED Description

POWER LED (Green) indicates voltage is present at thepower connection of the module.

ALERT LED (Yellow) communicates an abnormal systemcondition through a unique flash code. The ALERT LEDwill flash a number of times consecutively, pause, andthen repeat the process. The number of consecutiveflashes correlates to a particular abnormal condition.

TRIP LED (Red) indicates there is a demand signal fromthe thermostat but no current to the compressor is de-tected by the module. The TRIP LED typically indicatesthe compressor protector is open or may indicate missingsupply power to the compressor.

Interpreting the Diagnostic LEDs

When an abnormal system condition occurs, the diagnosticmodule displays the appropriate ALERT and/or TRIP LED.The yellow ALERT LED will flash a number of timesconsecutively, pause, and then repeat the process. Toidentify a flash code number, count the number of consecu-tive flashes. Refer to Table 9 on page 17 and Table 10 onpage 18 for information on the flash codes.

Every time the module powers up, the last ALERT LEDflash code that occurred prior to shutdown is displayed for60 seconds. The module will continue to display theprevious flash code until the condition returns to normal or24VAC is removed from the module. TRIP and ALERTLEDs flashing at the same time means control circuitvoltage is too low for operation.

24VAC Power Wiring

The diagnostic module requires a constant nominal 24VACpower supply. The wiring to the module’s R and C terminalsmust be directly from the indoor unit or thermostat.

Thermostat Demand Wiring

The diagnostic module requires a thermostat demandsignal to operate properly. The thermostat demand signalinput, labeled Y on the module, should always be con-nected to the compressor contactor coil so that when thecoil is energized, the demand signal input is 24VAC. Whenthe coil is not energized, the demand signal input should beless than 0.5VAC.

Miswired Module Codes

Depending on the system configuration, some ALERTflash codes may not be active. The presence of safetyswitches affects how the system alerts are displayed bythe module.

Miswiring the diagnostic module will cause false LEDcodes. Table 11 on page 19 describes LED operationwhen the module is miswired and what troubleshootingaction is required to correct the problem.
