HANDLING UNIT AFTER REMOVALFROM SKID

The unit will have to be turned sideways and removedfrom the skid to fit through a 36" doorway. If the doorheight allows, the unit can be slid sideways through thedoor.

If the unit can not be slid through the door, then the unitwill have to be put on a cart and tipped down to rollthrough the door. It is recommended that an appliancecart by used with a strap to hold the unit on the cart.

The wheels of the unit must be locked. If the wheelswere allowed to roll, the unit could roll off the cart. Theunit should always be carted from the left side. This isthe side where the compressor is located. See Figure 4.The blade of the appliance cart should be slid under thewheels of the unit. The strap of the appliance cartshould be placed around the unit and strapped tightly.Help will be required to tip the unit back onto the cart.The unit can be leaned far enough back to be rolledthrough the door. Be careful when setting the unit backup to keep from damaging the unit.

GENERALThe equipment covered in this manual is to be installedby trained, experienced service and installationtechnicians.

The unit is designed for use with or without duct work.For use without duct work, Plenum Box QPB42 isrecommended.

These instructions explain the recommended method toinstall the air cooled self-contained unit and theelectrical wiring connections to the unit.

These instructions and any instructions packaged withany separate equipment required to make up the entireair conditioning system should be carefully read beforebeginning the installation. Note particularly “StartProcedure” and any tags and/or labels attached to theequipment.

While these instructions are intended as a generalrecommended guide, they do not supersede any nationaland/or local codes in any way. Authorities havingjurisdiction should be consulted before the installation ismade. See Page 3 for information on codes andstandards.

Size of unit for a proposed installation should be basedon heat loss calculation made according to methods ofAir Conditioning Contractors of America (ACCA). Theair duct should be installed in accordance with theStandards of the National Fire Protection Systems ofOther Than Residence Type, NFPA No. 90A, andResidence Type Warm Air Heating and AirConditioning Systems, NFPA No. 90B. Where localregulations are at a variance with instructions, installershould adhere to local codes.

MINIMUM INSTALLATION HEIGHT

The minimum installation height of the unit with a FreeBlow Plenum is 8 ft. 6 in. This provides enoughclearance for the plenum to be removed. See Figure 5.

The minimum installation height for ducted applicationsis 8 ft. 4½ in. This provides enough clearance to installthe duct work. See Figure 6.

FIGURE 4UNIT ON APPLIANCE CART

WARNINGExercise extreme caution when pushing theunit on the rollers. Handle and push from thelower 1/3 of the unit. Insure that debris is noton the floor where the unit is to be moved onthe rollers. Failure to do so could result in theunit tipping over and causing bodily injury and/or damage to the unit.

DUCT WORKAny heat pump is more critical of proper operatingcharge and an adequate duct system than a straight airconditioning unit. All duct work must be properly sizedfor the design air flow requirement of the equipment.Air Conditioning Contractors of America (ACCA) is anexcellent guide to proper sizing. All duct work orportions thereof not in the conditioned space should beproperly insulated in order to both conserve energy andprevent condensation or moisture damage. When ductruns through unheated spaces, it should be insulatedwith a minimum of one inch of insulation. Useinsulation with a vapor barrier on the outside of theinsulation. Flexible joints should be used to connect theduct work to the equipment in order to keep the noisetransmission to a minimum.

The QTEC series heat pump has provision to attach asupply air duct to the top of the unit. Duct connectionsize is 12 inches x 20 inches. The duct work is fieldsupplied and must be attached in a manner to allow forease of removal when it becomes necessary to slide theunit out from the wall for service. See Figure 7 forsuggested attachment method.

NOTE: Unit cabinet, supply air duct and free blowplenum are approved for “0” clearance tocombustible material.

The QTEC series heat pumps are designed for use withfree return (non-ducted) and either free blow with theuse of QPB Plenum Box or a duct supply air system.

The QPB and QPBHW Plenum Box mounts on top ofthe unit and has both vertically and horizontallyadjustable louvers on the front discharge grille.

For hot water coil option a QPBHWxx-F for free blowor QPBHWxx-D for ducted airflow is used

When used with a ducted supply, a QCX CabinetExtension can be used to conceal the duct work abovethe unit to the ceiling. This extends 20" above the unitfor a total height above the floor of 10'-7/8". The unit isequipped with a variable speed indoor blower motorwhich increases in speed with an increase in duct staticpressure. The unit will therefore deliver proper rated airflow up to the maximum ESP shown in Table 8.However, for quiet operation of the air system, the ductstatic should be kept as low as practical, within theguidelines of good duct design.

FILTERSTwo 1-inch throw away filters [(1) 16x16 and (1)16x20] are supplied with each unit. The filters slide intofilter brackets. Refer to Figure 8.

The filters are serviced from the inside of the buildingby opening the hinged door. This door is attached by1/4 turn fasteners and one locking latch.

The internal filter brackets are adjustable toaccommodate 2-inch filters. The tabs for the 1-inchfilters must be bent down to allow the 2-inch filters toslide in place.

FRESH AIR INTAKEThis unit is equipped with a fresh air damper assembly.The damper blade is locked in the closed position whenthe unit is shipped from the Factory. To allow thedamper to operate remove the two plastic locking pins,one on each end of the blade. This will allow formaximum fresh air flow. The damper blade will nowopen when the indoor blower is operating. If less thanmaximum fresh air flow is required, reinsert the plasticpins to limit damper blade opening to desired level.Two extra pins are provided (taped to the inside of theassembly) which may be used to hold the blade in someposition other than minimum or maximum position.This fresh air assembly is located in the rear of the unitand to gain access to make these adjustments removethe air filter service door.

All capacity, efficiency and cost of operationinformation as required for Department of Energy“Energyguide” Fact Sheets are based upon the fresh airblank-off plate in place and is recommended formaximum energy efficiency.

The blank-off plate is available upon request from thefactory and is installed in place of the fresh air dampershipped with each unit.

CONDENSATE DRAIN

There are two drain connections on the unit. The reardrain is the primary drain, and is located on the rightlower rear panel of the unit. The optional side drain islocated on the bottom right side of the unit. The sidedrain is shipped with a plug installed.

The side drain requires a water trap for proper drainage.See Figure 9. The drain can be routed through the flooror through the wall. If the drain is to be routedthrough an unconditioned space, it must be protectedfrom freezing. The drain line must be able to beremoved from the unit if it is necessary to remove theunit from the wall. When the side drain is used, the plugmust be removed and installed in the rear drain outlet.

The rear drain can be used with wall thickness of up to10 inches where a water trap can be installed betweenthe unit and the interior wall. See Figure 10. The trapcannot extend beyond the edge of the unit or it willinterfere with the wall mounting bracket. The drain canbe routed through the floor or through the wall. If thedrain is routed through the wall, the drain line must bepositioned such that it will not interfere with the sleeveflange or the grille. See Figure 11. If the drain is to berouted through an unconditioned space, it must beprotected from freezing.

Optional rear drain kits, both standard and heatedversions, are available to facilitate easy installation, andalso removability of heat pump for service.

GENERALThis unit is equipped with a variable speed ECM motor.The motor is designed to maintain rated airflow up tothe maximum static allowed. It is important that theblower motor plugs are not plugged in or unpluggedwhile the power is on. Failure to remove power priorto unplugging or plugging in the motor could result inmotor failure.

CAUTIONDo not plug in or unplug blower motorconnectors while the power is on. Failure to doso may result in motor failure.

NOTE: For total and proper control using DDC, atotal of 6 controlled outputs are required (5 ifno ventilation system is installed). For propersystem operation under Emergency Heatconditions. Where the compressor needs to bedeactivated, the B-W2-E outputs need to beenergized. Removing the Y (compressor)signal alone turns the compressor off, but doesnot activate the additional circuitry embeddedin the heat pump for proper and completeoperation.

START UP

DESCRIPTION OF STANDARDEQUIPMENTSolid State Electronic Heat Pump ControlProvides efficient 30 minute defrost cycle. A thermistorsensor and speed up terminal for service along with a 10minute defrost override are standard on the electronicheat pump control.

High / Low Pressure SwitchProvides refrigerant circuit high pressure and loss ofcharge protection. Includes lockout circuit that isresettable from room thermostat.

Five Minute Compressor Time DelayProvides short cycle protection for the compressorwhich extends compressor life. Built into the electronicheat pump control as standard.

Service LightsOne service light indicates when service is required.

• Check System – detects high or low pressureswitch operation for compressor protection.

OPTIONAL CFM (QH362, QH422, QH482AND QH602 ONLY)These units are shipped from the factory set to operate atthe optional CFM level shown in Table 9. This provideslower operating sound levels for non-ducted, freedischarge applications. This CFM level will reduce thesystem capacity performance by approximately 2% atthe same energy efficiency.

Rated CFM is required for ducted applications formaximum performance rating. To obtain full CFM onthese models, connect jumper wire as follows:

1. Disconnect all power to the unit. Failure to do somay result in damage to the motor.

2. Open return air service panel

3. Open inner control panel cover

4. Locate low voltage terminal strip. There is a pinkjumper wire with both ends attached to terminalmarked “G2”. Move one end of this jumper toterminal “Y”.

5. Reverse steps to reassemble.

IMPORTANT INSTALLER NOTEFor improved start-up performance, wash the indoor coilwith a dishwasher detergent.

PHASE MONITORAll units with three phase scroll compressors areequipped with a 3 phase line monitor to preventcompressor damage due to phase reversal.

The phase monitor in this unit is equipped with twoLEDs. If the Y signal is present at the phase monitorand phases are correct the green LED will light and thecompressor contactor is allowed to energize.

If phases are reversed, the red fault LED will be lit andcompressor operation is inhibited.

If a fault condition occurs, reverse two of the supplyleads to the unit. Do not reverse any of the unit factorywires as damage may occur.

THREE PHASE SCROLL COMPRESSORSTART UP INFORMATIONScroll compressors, like several other types ofcompressors, will only compress in one rotationaldirection. Direction of rotation is not an issue withsingle phase compressors since they will always startand run in the proper direction.

However, three phase compressors will rotate in eitherdirection depending upon phasing of the power. Sincethere is a 50-50 chance of connecting power in such away as to cause rotation in the reverse direction,verification of proper rotation must be made.Verification of proper rotation direction is made byobserving that suction pressure drops and dischargepressure rises when the compressor is energized.Reverse rotation also results in an elevated sound levelover that with correct rotation, as well as, substantiallyreduced current draw compared to tabulated values.

Verification of proper rotation must be made at thetime the equipment is put into service. If improperrotation is corrected at this time there will be nonegative impact on the durability of the compressor.However, reverse operation for oven one hour mayhave a negative impact on the bearing due to oil pumpout.

All three phase scroll compressors used in the QTEC

series are wired identically internally. As a result, oncethe correct phasing is determined for a specific systemor installation, connecting properly phased power leadsto the same Fusite terminal should maintain properrotation direction. The direction of rotation of the motormay be changed by reversing any two line connectionsto the unit.

SERVICE HINTS1. Caution user to maintain clean air filters at all

times. Also, not to needlessly close off supply airregisters. This may reduce air flow through thesystem, which shortens equipment service life aswell as increasing operating costs and noiselevels.

2. Switching to heating cycle at 75°F or higheroutside temperature may cause a nuisance trip ofthe remote reset high pressure switch. Turnthermostat off, then on to reset the high pressureswitch.

3. The heat pump wall thermostats perform multiplefunctions. Be sure that all function switches arecorrectly set for the desired operating modebefore trying to diagnose any reported serviceproblems.

4. Check all power fuses or circuit breakers to besure they are the correct rating.

5. Periodic cleaning of the outdoor coil to permitfull and unrestricted airflow circulation isessential.

6. Some service requires the need to remove the unitfrom the wall including replacement of the indoorcoil and/or the outdoor coil. Also, servicing theoutdoor fan motor or fan blade will requireremoving the unit from the wall if the unit isinstalled at a height that is not easily accessiblefrom the outside of the building.In order to remove the unit from the wall thefollowing procedure must be used:

a. Turn off power to the unit at the remotelocation. Some units may have more than onepower supply.

For ease of pulling unitout from the wall, you may want to removethe bottom service door which requiresremoval of the return air panel, and grip thefront flange of the base pan then pull straightout.

7. Annual maintenance is required to make sure thatall of the systems are functioning properly.

a. Check to make sure that the drains are notobstructed in any way.

b. Remove any debris in the condenser section ofthe unit.

c. Inspect and clean mist eliminator as describedbelow.

d. Inspect and wash outdoor coil as necessary.

MIST ELIMINATOR SERVICEA mist eliminator is supplied with the wall sleeve. Themist eliminator is constructed of an aluminum frameand mesh. The mist eliminator is located in the topsection of the wall sleeve and can be removed from theinside of the building without removing the unit fromthe wall. This requires that the ventilation package mustbe removed.

It is recommended that the mist eliminator be inspectedannually and serviced as required. The mist eliminatorcan be inspected from the outside of the building bylooking through the outdoor grille. The mist eliminatorcan be serviced from the outside by using a vacuumcleaner. The outdoor grille must be removed. Use thevacuum to remove dirt and debris from the surface ofthe mist eliminator. If additional cleaning is required,the mist eliminator will have to be removed from thesleeve.

The ventilation package will have to be removed to gainaccess tot he mist eliminator. If the blank off plateoption is used, it is not necessary to service the misteliminator. The steps necessary to remove each of thevent options are listed on the following pages.

SEQUENCE OF OPERATIONCooling – Circuit R-Y makes the thermostat pull in thecompressor contactor starting the compressor andoutdoor motor. The G (indoor motor) circuit isautomatically completed on any call for coolingoperation, or can be energized by manual fan switch onsubbase for constant air circulation.

Heating – A 24V solenoid coil on reversing valvecontrols heating cycle operation. Two thermostatoptions, one allowing “Auto” change over from cycle tocycle and the other constantly energizing solenoid coilduring heating season and thus eliminating pressureequalization noise except during defrost, are to be usedon “Auto” option, a circuit is completed for R-W1 andR-Y on each heating “on” cycle, energizing reversingvalve solenoid and pulling in compressor contactorstarting compressor and outdoor motor. R-G also makesstarting indoor blower motor. Heat pump heating cyclenow in operation.

The second option has no “Auto” change over position,but instead energizes the reversing valve solenoidconstantly whenever the system switch on subbase isplaced in “Heat” position, the “B” terminal beingconstantly energized from R. A thermostat demand forheat completes R-Y circuit, pulling in compressorcontactor starting compressor and outdoor motor. R-Galso make starting indoor blower motor.

High / Low Pressure control provides protection for thecompressor. In the advent system pressures go above450 PSI or below 3.5 PSI in either cooling or heatingmode the compressor will be stopped. This will activatethe red light located in the control panel. The lockoutcircuit will hold compressor off line. When the systemproblem is corrected, the unit operation can be restoredby turning of the main power supply off and then backon, or reset the room thermostat. The low pressure

control has a bypass to eliminate nuisance lockout oncold start up.

The bypas timer should be set to 200 seconds, and this isto assure there is no nuisance tripping of the low-pressure control during startup in heating mode undercold weather conditions. See Figure 22.

OPTIONAL CLIMATE CONTROLSSEQUENCE OF OPERATIONThe Climate Control Option A is an electronic, non-programmable manual or auto changeover thermostat.The thermostat may be manually set to heat or coolmode. The thermostat will maintain the temperature seton the thermostat in the mode in which it is set.

The Climate Control Option D is an electronic,programmable thermostat. The thermostat can be set inthe heat, cool or automatic mode. When the thermostatis sent in the heat mode, it can heat only to maintain thetemperature set on the thermostat. When the thermostatis set in the cool mode, it can cool only to maintain thetemperature set on the thermostat. When the thermostatis set in the automatic mode, the thermostat can changeautomatically to the heat or cool modes to maintain thetemperature set on the thermostat.

PRESSURE SERVICE PORTSHigh and low pressure service ports are installed on allunits so that the system operating pressures can beobserved. Pressure curves can be found later in themanual covering all models on both cooling and heatingcycles. It is imperative to match the correct pressurecurve to the unit by model number. Upper and lowerservice doors must be attached to obtain proper reading.

DEFROST CYCLEThe defrost cycle is controlled by temperature and timeon the solid state heat pump control.

When the outdoor temperature is in the lower 40°Ftemperature range or colder, the outdoor coiltemperature is 32°F or below. This coil temperature issensed by the coil sensor mounted near the bottom ofthe outdoor coil. Once coil temperature reaches 30°F orbelow, the coil sends a signal to the control logic of theheat pump control and the defrost timer will start.

After 30 minutes at 30°F or below, the heat pumpcontrol will place the system in the defrost mode.

During the defrost mode the refrigerant cycle switchesback to the cooling cycle, the outdoor motor stops,electric heaters are energized, and hot gas passingthrough the outdoor coil melts any accumulated frost.When the temperature rises to approximately 57°F, thecoil sensor will send a signal to the heat pump controlwhich will return the system to heating operationsautomatically.

If some abnormal or temporary condition such as a highwind causes the heat pump to have a prolonged defrostcycle, the heat pump control will restore the system toheating operation automatically after 10 minutes.

There are three settings on the heat pump control – 30minute, 60 minute and 90 minute. Models are shippedwired on the 30 minute setting for greatest operatingeconomy. If special circumstances require a change toanother time, remove wire connected to terminal 30 andreconnect to desired terminal. Refer to Figure 21. Themanufacturer’s recommendation is for 30 minute defrostcycles.

There is a cycle speed up jumper on the control. Thiscan be used to reduce the time between defrost cycleoperation without waiting for time to elapse.

Use a small screwdriver or other metallic object, oranother 1/4 inch QC, to short between the SPEEDUP

terminals to accelerate the HPC timer and initiatedefrost. Be careful not to touch any other terminals withthe instrument used to short the SPEEDUP terminals. Itmay take up to 10 seconds with the SPEEDUP terminalsshorted for the speedup to be completed and the defrostcycle to start.

As soon as the defrost cycle kicks in remove theshorting instrument from the SPEEDUP terminal.Otherwise the timing will remain accelerated and runthrough the 1-minute maximum defrost length sequencein a matter of seconds and will automatically terminatethe defrost sequence.

There is an initial defrost jumper (sen jmp) on thecontrol that can be used at any outdoor ambient duringthe heating cycle to simulate a 0° coil temperature. Thiscan be used to check defrost operation of the unitwithout waiting for the outdoor ambient to fall into thedefrost region.

By placing a jumper across the SEN JMP terminals (a1/4 inch QC terminal works best) the defrost sensormounted on the outdoor coil is shunted out and willactivate the timing circuit. This permits the defrostcycle to be checked out in warmer weather conditionswithout the outdoor temperature having to fall into thedefrost region.

In order to terminate the defrost test the SEN JMPjumper must be removed. If left in place too long thecompressor could stop due to the high pressure controlopening because of high pressure condition created byoperating in the cooling mode with outdoor fan off.Pressure will rise fairly fast as there is likely no actualfrost on the outdoor coil in this artificial test condition.

There is also a 5 minute compressor time delay functionbuilt into the HPC. This is to protect the compressorfrom short cycling conditions. In some instances, it ishelpful to the service technician to override or speed upthis timing period, and shorting out the SPEEDUPterminals for a few seconds can do this.

CHECKING TEMPERATURE SENSOR1. Disconnect temperature sensor from board and

from outdoor coil.

2. Use an ohmmeter and measure the resistance ofthe sensor. Also use ohmmeter to check for shortor open.

3. Check resistance reading to chart of resistanceuse sensor ambient temperature. (Tolerance ofpart is ± 10%.)

4. If sensor resistance reads very low, then sensor isshorted and will not allow proper operation of theheat pump control.

5. If sensor is out of tolerance, shorted, open, orreads very low ohms then it should be replaced.

SOLID STATE HEAT PUMP CONTROLTROUBLESHOOTING PROCEDURE

1. Turn on AC power supply to indoor and outdoorunits.

2. Turn thermostat blower switch to “fan on” – theindoor blower should start. (If it doesn’t,troubleshoot indoor unit and correct problem.)

3. Turn thermostat blower to “auto” position.Indoor blower should stop.

4. Set system switch to “heat” or “cool”. Adjustthermostat to call for heat or cool. The indoorblower, compressor and outdoor fan should start.

NOTE: If there was no power to 24 volt transformer,the compressor and outdoor fan motor will notstart for 5 minutes. This is because of thecompressor short cycle protection.

FAN BLADE SETTING DIMENSIONSAny service work requiring removal or adjustment inthe fan and/or motor area will require that thedimensions in Table 7 be checked and blade adjusted inor out of the motor shaft accordingly.

1 Maximum ESP (inches WC) shown is with 1" thick disposable filter (reduced by .2 for 2" filter).2 Rated CFM for ducted applications – required for maximum performance rating. To obtain full CFM on models QH362, QH422,

QH482 and QH602 connect the pink jumper wire (provided) to terminal #G2 and #Y on the low voltage terminal block located inthe circuit breaker box.

3 Optional CFM – the unit is shipped from the factory set to operate at the optional CFM level shown. This provides loweroperating sound levels for non-ducted, free discharge applications. This reduces system capacity performance by approximately2% at the same energy efficiency.

4 Continuous fan CFM is the total air being circulated during continuous fan mode.5 Models QH242 – when operating on 2nd stage heating the indoor air will increase to 1000 CFM.

REFRIGERANT CHARGEThe correct system R-22 charge is shown on the unitrating plate. Optimum unit cooling performance willoccur with a refrigerant charge resulting in a Super Heatas shown in Table 8. If correct charge is in doubt,recover the refrigerant and recharge per the charge onthe unit rating plate.
