Refer to separate installation instructions for information
on installing these accessories.
Step 13 — Check Belt Tension
Measure the belt span length as shown in Fig. 59. Calcu-
late the required deflection by multiplying the belt span
length by / . For example, if the belt span length is 32 inch-

es: 32 x 1 / = 1 / inch deflection.

BELT FORCE — DEFLECTION METHOD
Check the belt tension with a spring-force belt force deflec-
tion gauge (available from drive belt manufacturer).
1. Place a straightedge along the belt between the two pul-
leys. Measure the distance between the motor shaft and
the blower shaft.
2. Set the tension gauge to the desired tension (see Table 1 in
Fig. 59). Place the large O-ring at that point.
3. Press the tension checker downward on the belt until the
large O-ring is at the bottom of the straightedge.
4. Adjust the belt tension as needed.
Adjust belt tension by loosing the motor mounting plate front
bolts and rear bolt (see Fig. 60) and slide the plate towards the
fan (to reduce tension) or away from the fan (to increase ten-
sion). Ensure the blower shaft and motor shaft are parallel to
each other (pulleys aligned). Tighten all bolts securely when fin-
ished.

BELT TENSION METHOD

Requires belt tension gauge that measures tension in belt in
units of lbs force.

UltraTech Compressor (50HC07 Units Only)
50HC07 (6 ton) units use a two-stage single UltraTech*
compressor. The UltraTech compressor's molded plug should
be used at all times. The maximum power is 5A.
The compressor will modulate from part load to full load
when the voltage supplied to the molded plug is 18 to 28vdc
or 18 to 28 vac rectified to vdc. The compressor will modu-
late from full load to part load when the current in the circuit
drops below 0.9 MA. See Table 20 for additional details. For
service information, see 50HC04-14 Service and Mainte-
nance Instructions.
