Step 9 — Install External Condensate Trap and
Line
The unit has one
of the condensate pan and an alternate connection on the bot-
tom. See Fig. 32. Unit airflow configuration does not deter-
mine which drain connection to use. Either drain connection
can be used with vertical or horizontal applications.
When using the 50TC*16 standard side drain connection, en-
sure the red plug in the alternate bottom connection is tight. Do
this before setting the unit in place. The red drain pan can be
tightened with a
To use the alternate bottom drain connection, remove the red

Fig. 33 — Condensate Drain Piping Details
All units must have an external trap for condensate drainage.
Install a trap at least 4-in. (102 mm) deep and protect against
freeze-up. If drain line is installed downstream from the exter-
nal trap, pitch the line away from the unit at 1-in. per 10 ft
(25 mm in 3 m) of run. Do not use a pipe size smaller than the
unit connection (
