General Information
The 7ECX coil includes an externally equalized factory-in-
stalled R-454B check/expansion valve and a factory-in-
stalled R-454B refrigerant leak detection sensor.
The coil drain pan has a maximum service temperature
of 500°F. The drain pan must be at least 2" away from a
standard gas-fired furnace heat exchanger and at least
4" away from any drum-type or oil-fired furnace heat ex-
changer. Closer spacing may damage the drain pan and
cause a leak.
Refer to the Product Specification bulletin (EHB) for the
proper use of these coils with specific furnaces, air han-
dlers and line sets.
These instructions are intended as a general guide and
do not supersede local or national codes in any way. Au-
thorities who have jurisdiction should be consulted before
installation.
IMPORTANT: Special procedures are required for clean-
ing the aluminum coil in this unit. See page 10 in this in-
struction for information.
