This unit must be electrically grounded in accordance

with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with

the National Electrical Code (ANSI/NFPA 70) or the CSA
C22.1 Electrical Code. Use the grounding lug provided in
the element access compartment for grounding the unit.

Blower speed

The blower speed is preset at the factory. For optimum

system performance and comfort, it may be necessary to

change the factory set speed. Refer to Blower Performance

Data (Tables 5 - 8, pages 22 - 25) for the allowable operating

range and adjustments. Units are shipped from the factory

with the blower drive belt removed and located in the same

compartment as the field electrical connections.

WarnInG:

to avoid personal injury or property damage,
make certain that the motor leads cannot
come into contact with any uninsulated metal
components of the unit.

To change the blower speed:
1. Disconnect all electrical power to the unit and remove

the blower access panel.

2. Loosen the motor tension bars to allow removal of the

blower belt from the motor sheave.

3. Loosen top set screw on motor sheave and turn

clockwise to close (increases blower speed), or

counterclockwise to open (decreases blower speed).

4. Replace belt on pulleys and position motor mounting

plate to correct position for proper belt tension.

5. Tighten tension bar bolts.

Check all factory wiring per the unit wiring diagram and

inspect the factory wiring connections to ensure none

loosened during shipping or installation.

Low Voltage Connections - Thermostat

A two stage heating/two stage cooling 24 VAC heat pump

thermostat is required for these units.

notE: If “optional”

electric heat is added, a 3 stage Heat / 2 stage cool

24 VAC heat pump thermostat must be used. Several

options are available for a room thermostat depending

on the accessories installed with the unit. Select a

thermostat which operates in conjunction with the installed

accessories. The thermostat should be mounted about

five feet above the floor on an inside wall. The thermostat

should be kept away from drafts, slamming doors, lamps,

direct sunlight and supply air flow.

To install the thermostat:
1. Position the subbase on an inside wall and mark the

mounting holes and thermostat cable openings.

2. Cut out the cable opening and route the thermostat

cable from the unit’s low voltage compartment to the
thermostat location. The thermostat cable is supplied by
the installer. For recommended wire sizes, see Figure
8 (page 9).

3. Connect the cable leads to the subbase or thermostat

terminals and to the unit’s low voltage terminal block
as shown in Figure 8. System wiring diagrams are also
provided on the inside of the control access panel and
in Figures 11 & 12 (page 19 & 20).

4. Secure the subbase or thermostat to the wall using

screws provided with the thermostat.

Example

:

AB = 451V
BC = 460V
AC = 453V

2. Determine the average voltage in the power supply.

3. Determine the maximum deviation:

4. Determine percent of

voltage imbalance by
using the results from
steps 2 & 3 in the following
equation.

Example:

1. Measure the line voltages

of your 3 phase power
supply where it enters the
building and at a location
that will only be dedicated
to the unit installation (at
the units circuit protection
or disconnect).

Unbalanced 3-Phase Supply Voltage

Voltage unbalance occurs when the voltages of all phases

of a 3-phase power supply are no longer equal. This

unbalance reduces motor efficiency and performance.

Some underlying causes of voltage unbalance may include:

Lack of symmetry in transmission lines, large single-phase

loads, and unbalanced or overloaded transformers. A

motor should never be operated when a phase imbalance

in supply is greater than 2%.

Perform the following steps

to determine the percentage of voltage imbalance:

In this example, the measured line voltages were

451, 460, and 453. The average would be 454 volts

(451 + 460 + 453 = 1,364 / 3 = 454).

The amount of phase imbalance (1.32%) is satisfactory

since the amount is lower than the maximum allowable

2%. Please contact your local electric utility company if

your voltage imbalance is more than 2%.

Example:

From the values given in step 1, the BC voltage

(460V) is the greatest difference in value from

the average:

460 - 454 = 6

454 - 451 = 3

454 - 453 = 1
