Sequence Of Operation - Carrier 48DU Installation Instructions Manual

cycled off, the fault code will be cleared on the next power- -up but
the fault will remain and system operation will not be as expected.
This is because on power- -up, the unit control cannot discern the
difference between an open sensor or if a sensor is not installed.
Step 2—Sequence of Operation
The 48DU packaged unit is designed for installation with a
communicating UI. This unit will not respond to commands
provided by a common thermostat except under certain emergency
situations described in Step 1—Start- -Up and Troubleshooting.
The UI uses temperature, humidity and other data supplied from
indoor and outdoor system components to control heating or
cooling system for optimum comfort. The unit will be commanded
by UI to supply airflow. The unit will operate the indoor blower at
requested airflow for most modes.
INDOOR AIRFLOW ADJUSTMENTS
The nominal requested airflow for air conditioner operations will be
350 cfm per ton of nominal cooling capacity as defined by unit size.
Actual airflow request will be adjusted from nominal using indoor
and outdoor temperature and indoor humidity data to optimize the
system operation for occupant comfort and system efficiency. Refer
to UI literature for further system control details.
CAUTION
!
UNIT OPERATION HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution may result in unit damage.
For cooling operation, the recommended airflow is 350 to 450
cfm for each 12,000 Btuh of rated cooling capacity. For
heating operation, the airflow must produce a temperature rise
that falls within the range stamped on the unit rating plate.
For gas heat operations, Table 4 shows the temperature rise in each
gas heating mode. Refer to these tables to determine the desired
heating airflow for the system being installed.
NOTE: Be sure that all supply- -and return- -air grilles are open, free
from obstructions, and adjusted properly.Airflow can be changed
using the UI. See UI installation instructions for more detail.
NOTE: Once the compressor has started and then has stopped, it
should not be started again until 4 minutes have elapsed. The
cooling cycle remains "on" until the room temperature drops to
point that is slightly below the cooling control setting of the UI.

demand, high- -stage cooling is energized by the UI. After second
stage is satisfied, the unit returns to low- -stage operation until first
stage is satisfied or until second stage is required again. When both
first stage and second stage cooling are satisfied, the compressor will
shut off.
NOTE: When two- -stage unit is operating at low- -stage, system
vapor (suction) pressure will be higher than a standard
single- -stage system or high- -stage operation.
NOTE: Outdoor fan motor will continue to operate for one
minute after compressor shuts off, when outdoor ambient is
greater than or equal to 100°F.
UTILITY INTERFACE WITH INFINITY CONTROL
The utility curtailment relay should be connected to factory
supplied pigtails (PINK, connected to R, VIOLET connected to
Y2 on the control board) located in the low voltage splice box
(See Fig. 13, 14 and 16). This input allows a power utility device
to interrupt compressor operation during peak load periods.
When the utility sends a signal to shut the system down, the UI
will display "Curtailment Active".
COMPRESSOR OPERATION
When the compressor is operating in low stage, the modulating
ring is deactivated, allowing two internal bypass ports to close off
33% of the scroll compression area so the system operates at part
load capacity. The 24- -volt solenoid coil is de- -energized in
low- -stage operation.
When the compressor is operating at high stage, the modulating
ring is activated, sealing the bypass ports, which allows the
compressor to operate at full load capacity. The 24- -volt solenoid
coil is energized in high stage operation.
CRANKCASE HEATER OPERATION (IF APPLICABLE)
The crankcase heater is energized during off cycle below 65_F
outdoor air temperature.
OUTDOOR FAN MOTOR OPERATION
The outdoor unit control energizes the outdoor fan any time the
compressor is operating. The outdoor fan remains energized if a
pressure switch or compressor overload should open. Outdoor fan
motor will continue to operate for one minute after the
compressor shuts off when the outdoor ambient is greater than or
equal to 100_F.
