System Voltage - That nominal voltage value assigned to a
circuit or system for the purpose of designating its voltage
class.
Nameplate Voltage - That voltage assigned to a piece of
equipment for the purpose of designating its voltage class
and for the purpose of defining the minimum and maximum
voltage at which the equipment will operate.
Utilization Voltage - The voltage of the line terminals of the
equipment at which the equipment must give fully satisfac-
tory performance. Once it is established that supply voltage
will be maintained within the utilization range under all sys-
tem conditions, check and calculate if an unbalanced condi-
tion exists between phases. Calculate percent voltage un-
balance as follows:
Three Phase Models Only
3) PERCENT VOLTAGE
UNBALANCE
2) MAXIMUM VOLTAGE DEVIATIONS
FROM AVERAGE VOLTAGE
1) AVERAGE VOLTAGE
HOW TO USE THE FORMULA:
EXAMPLE: With voltage of 220, 216, and 213
1) Average Voltage = 220+216+213=649 / 3 = 216
2) Maximum Voltage Deviations from Average Voltage = 220 - 216 = 4
3) Percent Voltage Unbalance = 100 x = = 1.8%
Percent voltage unbalance MUST NOT exceed 2% .

Prior to energizing any fans, check and make sure that all
setscrews are tight so that bearings are properly secured to
shafts.
For heat pump units, the airflow must be adjusted so that the
air temperature rise falls within the ranges given stated on
Data Plate (see Appendix A - Blower Performance).
NOTE: Section on high static tables may require a field motor
change.

Correct belt tension is very important to the life of your belt.
Too loose a belt will shorten its life; too tight, premature mo-
tor and bearing failure will occur. Check you belt drive for
adequate “run-in” belt tension by measuring the force required
to deflect the belt at the midpoint of the span length. Belt
tension force can be measured using a belt tension gauge,
available through most belt drive manufacturers.
t = Span length, inches
C = Center distance, inches
D = Larger sheave diameter, inches
d = Smaller sheave diameter, inches
h = Deflection height, inches

New V-belts will drop rapidly during the first few hours of use.
Check tension frequently during the first 24 hours of opera-
tion. Tension should fall between the minimum and maximum
force. To determine the deflection distance from a normal
position, measure the distance from sheave to sheave using
a straightedge or a cord. This is your reference line. On mul-
tiple belt drives, an adjacent undeflected belt can be used as
a reference.

Check that fan rotates clockwise when viewed from the drive
side of unit and in accordance with rotation arrow shown on
blower housing. If it does not, reverse the two incoming power
cables at Single Point Power Block. In this case, repeat bear-
ing check.
Do not attempt to change load side wiring. Internal wiring
assures all motors and compressors will rotate in correct di-
rection once evaporator fan motor rotation check has been
made.

Make preliminary check of evaporator fan ampere draw and
verify that motor nameplate amps are not exceeded. A final
check of amp draw should be made upon completion of air
balancing of the duct system (see Appendix C).
