NOTE: Be careful not to touch the fan blades during
the removal process to avoid unbalancing the fans

4.2 - Heaters removal

CAUTION: Do not touch the live metal heater
elements when the electric heater is connected to
the power supply.
- For units with the electric heater option, disconnect
the power supply cable to the heater. Withdraw
the cable through the cable gland.
- Remove  fixing  screws  of  the  electric  heaters  to 
retrieve it.

4.3 - Drain pan removal

CAUTION: After disconnecting power supply, keep
the unit idle for 15-20min to reduce heating circuit
temperature.
Ceiling units
- Disconnect the flexible condensate drain pipe held 
in place by a collar (the collar is not supplied by
Carrier).
- Remove the bottom panel.
- Retrieve the drain pan by sliding it from the
support.

4.4 - Water Coil removal procedure

CAUTION: After disconnecting power supply, keep
the unit idle for 15-20min to reduce heating circuit
temperature.
Ceiling units
- Close the isolating valves on the manifolds.
- Empty the coil by purging (see Fig. 14)
- Remove the flexible water pipes.
- Remove the valve actuators taking care to identify
the cooling and heating valves.
- Disconnect the flexible condensate drain pipe held 
in place by a collar (the collar is not supplied by
Carrier).
- Remove the two-way or four-way water flow
control valve bodies. Depending on the unit
configuration the four-way valve coupling may be 
fitted with a heating/ cooling changeover switch. 
If so, do not remove it.
- Remove the bottom panel.
- Retrieve the drain pan by sliding it from the
support.
- Remove the coil
- After replacement, ensure that all gaskets are
changed (new gaskets fitted) and that the inlet and 
outlet connections to the coil are made correctly
using an appropriate sealing compound applied
to the valve body. Bleed all air from the coil during
refilling.
Floor units
- Close the isolating valves on the manifolds.
- Empty the coil by purging (see Fig. 14)
