HE, DE & RE MANUAL In USA: The installation of this unit shall be in accordance with the latest edition of the National Electrical Code (ANSI/NFPA 70), State and Local Codes and in accordance with the local authorities having jurisdiction. This unit shall be electrically grounded in accordance with the latest edition of the National Electrical Code (ANSI/NFPA 70), State and Local Codes and in accordance with the local authorities having jurisdiction.
HE, DE & RE MANUAL LIFTING Engineered Air units are constructed on a structural steel base frame. The unit base frame is equipped with lifting lugs specifically located to facilitate proper lifting of the unit. Spreader bars must be used to keep rigging away from the unit cabinetry.
HE, DE & RE MANUAL Roof curb mounting – The curbs are constructed of heavy gauge load bearing, galvanized steel, and must be fully insulated after installation. Wood nailer strips are provided for easy attachment of roof flashing. Gasket material is supplied with the unit and must be field mounted on the curb to seal the joint between the curb and the unit frame.
HE, DE & RE MANUAL ASSEMBLY Warning: Assembly of split units requires bolting together the base frame of adjacent sections. This may require personnel to work under the unit during assembly. Injury or death can result from improper support or improper loading of the curb.
HE, DE & RE MANUAL PIPING, ELECTRICAL OR CONTROL SERVICE CONNECTIONS DO NOT install anything that will interfere with equipment access or the rating plate. Engineered Air equipment is constructed with cabinet and floors designed to prevent water from entering the building through the installed unit.
HE, DE & RE MANUAL NON RECIRCULATING INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS For Non Recirculating applications, all air to this unit must be drawn directly from the outdoors. Recirculation of room or building air is not permitted. The outside air intake of the make-up air unit shall be located in accordance with local building code provisions for ventilation air.
HE, DE & RE MANUAL FIELD INSTALLED DAMPERS At times it is desirable to have a damper external to the unit. In some cases the operation of these dampers may cause a “gas trap”, which is a volume of air trapped within the unit between damper sections. In this case a pre-purge cycle shall be used to provide at least four air changes in the ducting before an ignition attempt.
HE, DE & RE MANUAL DE PROCESS HEATER INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS 1. DE Series process air heaters require the installation of a manual emergency gas shutoff valve in an appropriate location that allows access to this valve to shut off the fuel to this heater in case of a fire or explosion at the heater or the space served by the heater.
HE, DE & RE MANUAL 7. Refer to the unit function and wiring diagram provided for the lighting interlock of the served space during heater operation in the bake cycle mode. 8. For Non Re-circulating applications, all air to this unit must be drawn directly from the outdoors. EXHAUST FAN / RELIEF AIR PROVISIONS Adequate relief shall be provided so as to prevent building over-pressurization when the ventilation system is operating at its full rated capacity.
HE, DE & RE MANUAL Recommended 24V Field Wiring Size: Copper conductors only Circuit Maximum Total Length of Run Load < 50 Ft < 100 Ft < 150 Ft < 200 Ft < 250 Ft < 300 Ft < 350 Ft <...
HE, DE & RE MANUAL DUCT MOUNTED TE-6000-EA3 TEMPERATURE SENSOR Some applications require field installed discharge air sensors. The sensor strip must be parallel to the air flow. The sensor should be mounted near the center of a straight duct 5 to 10 feet (1500 to 3000mm) downstream of the supply air connection to the Engineered Air unit.
HE, DE & RE MANUAL DRAIN TRAPS Each drain connection requires a separate drain trap supplied and installed by the contractor. For a trap to work properly, it must be primed. During freezing periods, primed traps may need to be heat traced or drain and plug the trap when not in use.
HE, DE & RE MANUAL HEAT TRANSFER FLUIDS The coil(s) provided have been selected for use with a specific heat transfer fluid as shown on the Submittal Record. Use of other fluids will result in different performance and can damage the coil(s). It is imperative to properly select and apply heat transfer fluids used in heating and cooling systems.

HE, DE & RE MANUAL Set thermostat or controller to the “OFF” position and turn unit control switch “ON”. Check the amperage draw of each motor and compressor. Refer to unit or motor rating plate for full load amps. At the unit, check and record the voltage while it is running. For 3 phase power the phase to phase voltage imbalance should be less than 2%.
HE, DE & RE MANUAL OPERATION Warning: This unit is connected to high voltages. Electrical shock or death could occur if instructions are not followed. This equipment contains moving parts that can start unexpectedly. Injury or death could occur if instructions are not followed.
HE, DE & RE MANUAL SAFETY SHUTOFF VALVE LEAK TEST: Safety shutoff valves require a qualified technician to perform a leak (bubble) test to determine tightness of closure on a least an annual basis. A very small amount of leakage is normal. Valve leakage rates exceeding those noted in the table below require repair or valve replacement.
HE, DE & RE MANUAL OPERATIONAL CHECK CALL A QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSON FOR SERVICE. Turn on main and pilot valve up stream of manual firing shut-off valves and check for leaks on unit piping. Check for leaking main and pilot valve seats by closing the manual firing valve and safety shut-off valve.
HE, DE & RE MANUAL Do not adjust the main pressure regulator (appliance regulator). The firing rate has been factory set and should not require any adjustment. The air temperature rise should be as listed on the nameplate. If not, the air volume through the unit should be adjusted. This may be accomplished by adjusting the blower speed, by balancing dampers, or both.
HE, DE & RE MANUAL MAINTENANCE Warning: This unit is connected to high voltages. Electrical shock or death could occur if instructions are not followed. This equipment contains moving parts that can start unexpectedly. Injury or death could occur if instructions are not followed.
HE, DE & RE MANUAL BELT ADJUSTMENT For maximum belt and bearing life, pulley alignment and belt tension must be properly maintained. Only replace with belts of the proper type and size. NOTE: If belts are too tight or improperly aligned, the life expectancy of the motor(s), fan bearings and belt(s) are reduced.
HE, DE & RE MANUAL LUBRICATION OF DODGE FAN BEARINGS Suggested Re-lubrication Schedule (Months)* for Dodge Ball Bearing Pillow Block Speed (RPM) 1000 1500 2000 2500 3000 3500 4000 4500 Shaft DIA. ½” - 1 16” ” – 2 ” ”...

HE, DE & RE MANUAL Lubricate with a multipurpose roller bearing NLGI No. 2 having rust inhibitors and antioxidant additives, and a minimum oil viscosity of 500 SSU at 100°F. Some examples of grease having these properties are: Shell Alvania No. 2 Mobil Mobilith AW2 Mobilith SHC100...
HE, DE & RE MANUAL MOTOR LUBRICATION Refer to motor manufacturer for lubrication recommendations. On motors having grease drain plugs, remove the plugs and operate the motor for 15 minutes before replacing plugs. DO NOT OVER GREASE. RECOMMENDED MOTOR LUBRICATION INTERVALS Up to 7.5 HP 10 to 40 HP Over 40 HP...
HE, DE & RE MANUAL BURNERS It is recommended that the burner be inspected once each year. Remove any scale that may have accumulated on the burner plates. Ensure that the holes on the burner plates and gas orifices are completely clear of foreign material.
HE, DE & RE MANUAL CONTROLS Annually clean and recalibrate all controls, check for proper operation, and repair or replace any faulty controls. Check all damper hardware settings every three months. Replace blown fuses with equivalent size and type fuse. Failure to do so can result in damage to the unit. CONTROL ENCLOSURE VENTILATION Control enclosures are often ventilated in summer to provide component cooling.
