II-PLACEMENT AND INSTALLATION
Make sure the unit is installed in accordance with the in­
stallation instructions and all applicable codes. See ac­
cessories section for conditions requiring use of the op­
tional roof mounting frame (C1CURB10).
III-CHARGING
WARNING
Refrigerant can be harmful if it is inhaled. Refrigerant
must be used and recovered responsibly.
Failure to follow this warning may result in person­
al injury or death.
IMPORTANT
Units equipped with a Hot Gas Reheat system MUST be
charged in standard cooling mode.
A-Refrigerant Charge and Check - All-Aluminum Coil
092H, 102H, 120H, 150S Units
WARNING-Do not exceed nameplate charge under any
condition.
This unit is factory charged and should require no further
adjustment. If the system requires additional refrigerant, re­
claim the charge, evacuate the system, and add required
nameplate charge.
NOTE - System charging is not recommended below 60_F
(15_C). In temperatures below 60_F (15_C), the charge
must be weighed into the system.
If weighing facilities are not available, or to check the
charge, use the following procedure:
IMPORTANT - Charge unit in standard cooling mode.
1- Make sure outdoor coil is clean. Attach gauge manifolds
and operate unit at full CFM in cooling mode with econo­

mizer disabled until system stabilizes (approximately five
minutes). Make sure all outdoor air dampers are closed.
2- Check each system separately with all stages operat­
ing. Compare the normal operating pressures (see ta­
bles 5 - 8) to the pressures obtained from the gauges.
Check unit components if there are significant differ­
ences.
3- Measure the outdoor ambient temperature and the suc­
tion pressure. Refer to the appropriate circuit charging
curve to determine a target liquid temperature.
Note - Pressures are listed for sea level applications.
4- Use the same thermometer to accurately measure the
liquid temperature (in the outdoor section).
D If measured liquid temperature is higher than the
target liquid temperature, add refrigerant to the
system.
D If measured liquid temperature is lower than the
target liquid temperature, recover some refrigerant
from the system.
5- Add or remove charge in increments. Allow the system
to stabilize each time refrigerant is added or removed.
6- Continue the process until measured liquid tempera­
ture agrees with the target liquid temperature. Do not
go below the target liquid temperature when adjusting
charge. Note that suction pressure can change as
charge is adjusted.
7- Example LGH/LCH092 Circuit 1: At 95°F outdoor am­
bient and a measured suction pressure of 130psig, the
target liquid temperature is 96°F. For a measured liquid
temperature of 106°F, add charge in increments until
measured liquid temperature agrees with the target liq­
uid temperature.
