Pressure Test Gas Piping (Gas Units)

When pressure testing gas lines, the gas valve must
be disconnected and isolated. Gas valves can be
damaged if subjected to more than 0.5 psig (3.48kPa).
See figure 13.
NOTE-Codes may require that manual main shut-off valve
and union (furnished by installer) be installed in gas line
external to unit. Union must be of the ground joint type.
After all connections have been made, check all piping
connections for gas leaks. Also check existing unit gas
connections up to the gas valve; loosening may occur
during installation. Use a leak detection solution or other
preferred means. Do not use matches, candles, or other
sources of ignition to check for gas leaks.
CAUTION
Some soaps used for leak detection are corrosive
to certain metals. Carefully rinse piping thoroughly
after leak test has been completed. Do not use
matches, candles, flame or othe sources of ignition
to check for gas leaks.
WARNING
Danger of explosion. Can cause injury
or product or property damage. Do not
use matches, candles, flame or other
sources of ignition to check for leaks.
NOTE-In case emergency shut down is required, turn off
the main manual shut-off valve and disconnect main
power to unit. These devices should be properly labeled
by the installer.

High Altitude Derate

Locate the high altitude conversion sticker in the unit
literature bag. Fill out the conversion sticker and affix next
to the unit nameplate.
Refer to table 2 for high altitude adjustments.

HIGH ALTITUDE DERATE
Altitude Ft.*
2000-4500

*Units installed at 0-2000 feet do not need to be modified.
NOTE ‐ This is the only permissible derate for these units.

Electrical Connections

POWER SUPPLY
Do not apply power or close disconnect switch until
installation is complete. Refer to start-up directions.
Refer closely to unit wiring diagram.
Refer to unit nameplate for minimum circuit ampacity
and maximum fuse size.
1- Units are factory-wired for 230,460,575 volt supply.
For 208V supply, remove the insulated terminal cover
from the 208V terminal on the control transformer.
Move the wire from the transformer 240V terminal to
the 208V terminal. Place the insulated terminal cover
on the unused 240V terminal.
2- Route power through the bottom power entry area.
On KG units, connect power wiring to L1, L2 and L3
on the top of K1 in control area above compressor.
On KC units, route power wiring to TB2. Secure
power wiring with factory-installed wire ties
provided in control box. See unit wiring diagram.
