SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS

Installation and servicing of air-conditioning equipment can be
hazardous due to system pressure and electrical components. Only
trained and qualified service personnel should install, repair, or
service air-conditioning equipment.
Untrained personnel can perform basic maintenance functions of
cleaning coils and filters and replacing filters. All other operations
should be performed by trained service personnel. When working
on air-conditioning equipment, observe precautions in the
literature, tags and labels attached to the unit, and other safety
precautions that may apply.
Follow all safety codes, including ANSI (American National
Standards Institute) Z223.1. Wear safety glasses and work gloves.
Use quenching cloth for unbrazing operations. Have fire
extinguisher available for all brazing operations.
It is important to recognize safety information. This is the safety-
alert symbol
. When you see this symbol on the unit and in
instructions or manuals, be alert to the potential for personal
injury.
Understand the signal words DANGER, WARNING, CAUTION,
and NOTE. These words are used with the safety-alert symbol.
DANGER identifies the most serious hazards which will result in
severe personal injury or death. WARNING signifies hazards
which could result in personal injury or death. CAUTION is used
to identify unsafe practices, which may result in minor personal
injury or product and property damage. NOTE is used to highlight
suggestions which will result in enhanced installation, reliability,
or operation.

    When installing the gas supply line, observe local codes pertaining to gas pipe installations. Refer to the NFPA 54/ANSI Z223.1 NFGC latest edition (in Canada, CAN/CSA B149.1). In the ab- sence of local building codes, adhere to the following pertinent recommendations: Avoid low spots in long runs of pipe.

    All units must have an external trap for condensate drainage. Units Without Disconnect Option 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.
  • Page 17: Field Power Supply

    FIELD POWER SUPPLY See Fig. 26. For those units without thru-the-curb power, conduit must be used to route the main power from the condenser end, via the power entry in the corner post of the unit (see Fig. 28 and 29) to either the factory option disconnect or the bottom of the control box.
