1.5 General Operation Refrigerant Cycle Marvair heat pumps use R-410A refrigerant in a conventional vapor-compression refrigeration cycle to transfer heat. In the cooling mode, a double blower assembly blows indoor air across the evaporator (indoor coil). Liquid refrigerant passing through the evaporator is boiled into gas by heat removed from the air.

The cold, dry air absorbs heat and moisture from the desiccant. The warmed air is mixed with the return air from the classroom and distributed throughout the room. Marvair Wall Mount H/P MAA1020H-1048H/MGA1072H I&O Manual 02/2021 Rev.2...
The board also provides the ability to vary the speed of the indoor blower motor (electronically commutated motors excepted) and to select the number of seconds the blower will run after the compressor has turned Marvair Wall Mount H/P MAA1020H-1048H/MGA1072H I&O Manual 02/2021 Rev.2...

Adjustable Outdoor Thermostat Will not allow electric resistance heat to be energized unless the outdoor temperature is below the desired set point. Field or factory installed. Available on all Marvair units. P/N 93934 Single Point Feed When multiple internal disconnects are used, single point feed permits only one field power supply to heat pump.
The thermistor senses the air temperature entering the structure, and provides a signal to the economizer controller for modulating the position of the damper. Nominal resistance of the sensor at 77°F is 3000 ohms. Marvair Wall Mount H/P MAA1020H-1048H/MGA1072H I&O Manual 02/2021 Rev.2...
Failure to observe and follow Warnings and Cautions and these Instructions could result in death, bodily injury or property damage. Read this manual and follow its instructions and adhere to all Cautions and Warnings in the manual and on the Marvair unit.
2.3 Installation Materials Installation Kits Marvair MAA Heat Pumps have built-in mounting flanges that function as side brackets. All models require and are shipped with a bottom mounting bracket. On units with the "N" ventilation option, there is a fresh air hood factory installed behind the lower front panel.

Terminals 8 & 10 on the Marvair with economizer can be connected to a normally closed smoke alarm or fire stat to cause equipment shutdown when the circuit is opened. (Remove factory jumper).
Various thermostats can be used to control the heat pump. The thermostat may have a fan switch with an Automatic and On positions, a system switch with Heat, Cool, and Off positions, and an emergency heat position with lights. The spec sheets have detailed description of the various Marvair ®...
2. Raise the heating set point temperature to a setting which is higher than the room temperature. The fan and compressor should cycle on after time delay (standard on Marvair heat pumps with an economizer and optional on all other Marvair units) has cycled.

3.4 Ventilation System Set-Up: Manual Fresh Air System (Configuration N). This is the standard ventilation system in Marvair heat pumps. Fresh air ventilation by means of a damper can provide up to 15% of rated air flow of outside air. The damper has four positions corresponding to 0, 5, 10 and 15% of rated air flow of outside air.
The motorized damper, Configuration B, can be controlled by an optional relay that allows additional external control with a choice of 24, 120 or 240V coils to regulate fresh air ventilation in response to a control located remote from the Marvair heat pump. GreenWheel ERV (Configuration H).
Please read the Chapter 1 for basic information about the unit. Marvair Heat Pumps are thoroughly tested before they are shipped from the factory. However, it is possible that a defect may escape undetected, or damage may have occurred during transportation. However, the great majority of problems result from installation errors.

The indoor evaporator fan motor is cycled by the blower timed delay relay. See Figure 9. Due to the large number of variations and options available for the Marvair heat pumps, it is not practical to include every possible wiring schematic in this manual. The following schematics are typical. Included in each heat pump is the electrical schematic for that unit.
Regularly check the primary and secondary condensate drains. The secondary drain has a stand pipe. An obstruction will force water to dump into the middle of the unit and drain out the sides of the Marvair Heat Pump, causing discoloration of the side panels. If discoloration is noted, service the drains.

Flat Rate Labor Guidelines.
The 1" (25.4 mm) clearance must extend on all sides of the supply duct for the first 3 feet (1 meter) from the unit. IMPORTANT: Marvair requires a minimum of 1" (25.4 mm) from the surface of any supply ducts to combustible material for the first 3 feet (1 meter) of the duct.
