GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION
Please observe the following general safety instructions when assembling and operating the unit:
- Assembling, installing and servicing must only be performed by properly trained specialists.
- When transporting the enclosure with the cooling unit externally mounted, always use an additional shipping brace to support the cooling unit.
- Do not attempt to operate the air conditioner while it is horizontal or on its side, back or front.
- Operation of air conditioner in areas containing airborne caustics or chemicals can rapidly degrade sealing properties of materials, deteriorate filters, refrigeration coils, blowers and motors. Contact nVent Equipment Protection for special recommendations. See Maintenance on page 28.
DANGER
Danger: explosion hazard – do not energize, disconnect, or troubleshoot
equipment unless power has been switched off or the area is known to be non-
hazardous.
Unit to be installed and maintained by properly trained personnel only.
RECEIVING THE AIR CONDITIONER
Inspect the air conditioner. Check for concealed damage that may have
occurred during shipment. Look for dents, scratches, loose assemblies,
evidence of oil, etc. Damage evident upon receipt should be noted on the
freight bill.
Damage should be brought to the attention of the delivering carrier — NOT to
nVent Equipment Protection — within 15 days of delivery. Save the carton and
packing material and request an inspection. Then file a claim with the
delivering carrier.
nVent Equipment Protection cannot accept responsibility for freight damages;
however, we will assist you in any way possible.
CAUTION MISE EN GARDE
This air conditioner is suitable for use in Class 1, Division 2, Groups A, B,
C, D T4A hazardous locations, or non-hazardous locations only. It is meant to
be installed in an enclosure such that the field wiring and controls are only
accessible with the use of a tool.
Do not attempt to operate the air conditioner while it is horizontal or on its
side, back or front. The refrigeration compressor is filled with lubricating
oil. This will cause permanent damage to the air conditioner and also voids
the warranty.
HANDLING AND TESTING THE AIR CONDITIONER
If the air conditioner has been in a horizontal position, be certain it is
placed in an upright, vertical or mounting position for a minimum of five (5)
minutes before operating.
TEST FOR FUNCTIONALITY BEFORE MOUNTING THE AIR CONDITIONER TO THE ENCLOSURE.
Refer to the nameplate for proper electrical current requirements, and then
wire the unit to a properly grounded power supply using copper conductors
only. Power supply wiring should be restrained after field installation to
ensure no contact with internal fan. Minimum circuit ampacity should be at
least 125% of the amperage shown n the unit nameplate. No other equipment
should be connected to this circuit to prevent overloading Immediately after
applying power, the evaporator blower (enclosure air) should start running.
Operate the air conditioner with the compressor running for five (5) to ten
(10) minutes. You will need to set the cooling thermostat or controller
setpoint below the ambient temperature to operate the compressor. Condenser
air temperatures should be warmer than normal room temperatures within a few
minutes after the condenser impellers start. See Sequence of Operation on page
4 for specifics on how the unit operates when powered up.
HOW TO READ MODEL NUMBERS
NHZ43 | 04 | 2 | 6 | G300 |
---|---|---|---|---|
1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 |
- Identifies the type/family of air conditioner and the approximate height (i.e. NHZ43 = Narrow Hazardous Location family about 43 inches high).
- This is the air conditioner’s listed capacity in BTU/Hr. at rated conditions. (i.e. 06=6,000 BTU/Hr. at 131/131 F)
- 1 = 115 Volt, 2 = 230 Volt, 4 = 460 Volt.
- 6 = 50/60 Hz or 60 Hz only.
- Unique set of numbers for each air conditioner which identifies the accessories on a model.
TECHNICAL INFORMATION
GENERAL
Sensor 2 monitors the enclosure return air temperature to prevent ice buildup
on the evaporator coil. If the air temperature drops below -1 C, the
compressor and condenser air mover(s) shut off. They turn back on when the
temperature rises above 15 C.
The compressor and the air movers are equipped with overload protection to
guard against excess current and temperatures.
SEQUENCE OF OPERATION
The air conditioner comes standard with smart controller. During cooling
modes, the evaporator fan will be running.
COOLING
When the enclosure temperature is above the cooling set-point plus the cooling
differential, the smart controller will call for cooling. The compressor is
then energized through a solid state relay or contactor.
The condenser impellers will start immediately if the unit is not equipped
with an optional head pressure control switch. If the unit is equipped with an
optional head pressure control switch, the condenser impellers will start once
the refrigerant pressure reaches the pressure setting of the switch. Component
specific information is listed below.
Operating the air conditioner below the minimum ambient temperature or above
the maximum ambient temperatures indicated on the nameplate voids all
warranties. DO NOT adjust cooling set-point to a temperature lower than 70 F.
Doing so can increase the likelihood of frost buildup on the evaporator coil.
The moisture that the enclosure air can contain is limited. If moisture flows
from the drain tube continuously this can only mean that ambient air is
entering the enclosure. Be aware that frequent opening of the enclosure’s door
admits humid air that the air conditioner must then dehumidify.
STANDARD AND OPTIONAL COMPONENT OPERATION
SMART CONTROLLER
The standard NHZ43 air conditioner uses our standard smart controller. The
setpoint equals the temperature that the air conditioner turns off. The
controller has a 7 F differential from setpoint until it calls for cooling. An
example of operation is shown below.
FOR COOLING (75-100 F RANGE)
- Thermostat setpoint = 80 F
- Cooling turns on at 87 F
- Cooling turns off at 80 F
REMOTE ACCESS CONTROL (OPTIONAL)
See Remote Access Control (optional) on page 5
HEAD PRESSURE CONTROL (OPTIONAL)
Unit is set at the factory, no adjustment necessary.
At a saturated condenser temperature of 85 F (95 psig), the condenser fans
will power off. At a saturated condenser temperature of 117 F (165 psig), the
condenser fans will power on.
115V/230V TO 10V TRANSFORMER (OPTIONAL)
This transformer powers the thermal display.
DOOR SWITCH
Several door switches may be connected in series and operated on one cooling
unit. The door switch only supports a floating connection,no external
voltages. Remove jumper from terminals 3 and 4 of the connector and connect
the door switch to the two terminals if a door switch is available.
ACTIVE CONDENSATE MANAGEMENT
At low temperatures and high humidity levels inside the enclosure,
condensation may form on the evaporator coil. The air conditioner will
continuously evaporate the water that may be in the drain pan due to
condensation from the evaporator coil into the external air stream. Excess
condensate is routed downwards out of the air conditioner via a tube fitting
at the bottom of the condenser side of the unit. A 10 mm inside diameter tube
can be attached to the fitting and routed to a nearby drain.
WHEN USED WITH PURGE AND PRESSURIZED ENCLOSURES
This air conditioner will operate safely in a Class 1 Division 2 Groups A, B,
C and D hazardous location on both exterior and interior sides. It does not
require a purge and pressurized enclosure, but if it is to be installed on
one, the following should be considered.
The active condensate management system functionally described above is
possible due to a drain trap directly connecting and routing condensation from
the evaporator coil pan to the ambient side where it collects in the
condensate evaporator pan.
During initial purging of an enclosure or after long periods of operation in a
pressurized system utilizing a dry protective and/or inert gas supply, the
drain trap can eventually dry out and allow a small amount of protective gas
to leak outward of the enclosure through the drain trap. A leakage should not
immediately be associated with a hazardous condition. If continuous positive
pressure is maintained inside an enclosure, the protective gas will leak out
to ambient and prevent hazardous gasses from entering. A typical enclosure
pressurization system can compensate for this and maintain proper enclosure
pressure.
If the pressurization system cannot compensate for the additional leakage, a
drain trap seal can be created by priming the air conditioner drain. This can
be done by de-energizing and opening the enclosure for access to the
evaporator coil, and carefully pouring clean water (approx. 1 cup) into the
face of the coil. With water present, the drain trap should be fully primed
and sealed. Opening the enclosure can also introduce humidity back into the
enclosure which will eventually condense on the evaporator coil and become
part of the seal in the drain trap.

- When transporting the enclosure with the cooling unit externally mounted, always use an additional shipping brace to support the cooling unit.
- Do not attempt to operate the air conditioner while it is horizontal or on its side, back or front.
- Operation of air conditioner in areas containing airborne caustics or chemicals can rapidly degrade sealing properties of materials, deteriorate filters, refrigeration coils, blowers and motors. Contact nVent Equipment
Protection for special recommendations. See Maintenance on page 28.
DANGER
Danger: explosion hazard – do not energize, disconnect, or troubleshoot
equipment unless power has been switched off or the area is known to be non-
hazardous. Unit to be installed and maintained by properly trained personnel
only.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
- Refer to nameplate for hazardous location rating.
- Install a suitable switch to de-energize the air conditioner for repairs or remove the fuse.
- Inspect the air conditioner and verify correct functionality before mounting the air conditioner. See Handling and Testing the Air Conditioner on page 4.
- Using the mounting gasket kit provided with the unit, install gaskets to the air conditioner.
- When considering a location for the unit, it is recommended that a six (6) inch clearance be maintained on at least one side of the air conditioner. It is also recommended that twenty (20) inches of clearance be allowed from the front of the unit for cover removal.
- Figure 1 and the cutout template included with the unit will assist in preparing the enclosure for installation of the unit. NOTE: Mount the unit within 3° from vertical.
- Mount air conditioner on enclosure taking care not to damage the mounting gasket. The mounting gasket is the seal between the air conditioner and the enclosure. Avoid dragging the air conditioner on the enclosure with the mounting gasket attached as this could cause rips or tears in the gasket and risk losing the water tight seal.
- To avoid cross-threading mounting inserts, start bolts by hand before tightening with a wrench or ratchet driver. Allow unit to remain upright for a minimum of five (5) minutes before starting. CAUTION! Air conditioner must be in upright position during operation.
- Refer to the nameplate for electrical requirements. Wire the unit to a properly grounded power supply. Electrical circuit should be fused with slow blow or HACR circuit breaker.
- Adjust the controller to the desired cabinet temperature. Refer to DISPLAYING AND CHANGING PROGRAM Settings on page 17 for controller adjustments and operation.
CAUTION MISE EN GARDE
The unit is meant to be installed in an enclosure suitable for the environment
listed previously and such that the field wiring and controls are only
accessible with the use of a tool. When installed on an enclosure, only the
front/face side, ambient air in, and ambient air out can be exposed to the
environment.
DIGITAL THERMOSTAT CONTROLLER (OPTIONAL)
OVERVIEW
The digital thermostat (controller) is a parametric controller for the
complete management of air conditioners. All settings are pre-programmed at
the factory. Cooling/heating setpoint, cooling/heating differential and high/
low temperature setpoint are designed to be adjustable by the operator. All
alarms are outputted through the
alarm relay. In addition, if Hoffman network card (Remote Access Control (RAC)
Module) is used the parameters that state above and alarms are accessible
remotely through Ethernet connection utilizing SNMP, Modbus TCP, EtherNet/IP,
and Profinet protocol . A USB connection from the network card is also
provided with accessibility to the digital thermostat controller utilizing
Modbus RTU and RS-845 serial bus. In addition, the USB connection is also used
to read the network information from the Hoffman network card and temperature
setpoints and alarm from the controller. Note that Hoffman network card (RAC
module) is acting as a gateway to the digital thermostat where temperature
setpoints and alarm can be viewed and/or changed remotely.
Note: nVent Hoffman network card (RAC module) is an optional accessory,
therefore, some of the air conditioners ship without the network card but it
is upgradable upon request.
ENERGIZING THE CONTROLLER
The digital controller is wired and programmed at the factory to operate when
power is applied to the air conditioner. In normal condition, the evap fan
starts operating after the completion of the self-evaluation which is less
than 30 seconds and fan icon should be illuminated along with the inlet and
outlet temperature data (if an option outlet temperature sensor is installed).
CONTROL STATUS INDICATION
The display has numerous symbols to indicate the various controller functions
such as cooling, heating, alarming, evaporator fan, and heating. Indicators

DISPLAYING TEMPERATURE DATA ON SCREEN
There are two temperature probes in the air conditioner where one is reading
the enclosure air temperature incoming to the air conditioner and other is
reading the cooled air leaving the air conditioner and entering the enclosure.
Both temperature data are displayed on the screen where line 1 is the reading
of the inlet temperature and line 2 is the reading of the outlet temperature.
COMPRESSOR RESTART TIME DELAY
A factory set 3 minute (180 seconds) restart delay exists to reduce residual
back pressure before allowing the compressor to restart. The compressor will
stay off for the entire restart duration after the compressor is disabled. A
flashing compressor icon on the display indicating that the unit is in a
compressor restart delay mode while calling for cooling or waiting for
compressor to turn ON.
ALARM OUTPUT CONTACT
The digital controller has a normally open dry contact alarm output with a
resistive load rating of 250VAC @ 5 amps max. The two yellow 18 AWG wires
located at the back of the air conditioner provide a connection to this
output. Note: do not apply power to this normally open dry contact (two yellow
18 AWG wire). This alarm relay output is configurable and provides user with
the ability to change the configuration to support their external device.
Parameter C21 controls the alarm relay output logic and can be accessed
through security code “0022” in the PArF folder.
Para | Description | Configuration |
---|---|---|
C21 | Alarm relay output logic | 0 = normally open (NO) – factory default 1 = |
normally closed (NC)
ALARM INPUT CONNECTION
The digital controller can accept a dry contact/switch input via the two 18
AWG white wires located at the back of the air conditioner. This input is
associated with the controller display alarm mnemonic dO (door open). To use
this feature, remove the splice connector, and connect the two white wires to
customer supplied enclosure door
switch in its place. Note: do NOT apply power to this dry contact input.
PRIMARY-SECONDARY (PS) MODE
Note: during normal operation, in both the primary-secondary (PS) and
lead-lag (LL) operating modes, line 2 displays the device ID, not the outlet
temperature. The outlet temperature can be viewed on line 1 by pressing arrow.
Primary-secondary (PS) mode shares the same hardware and source code as
standalone mode, but offers more functionality and features. The controller
ships from the factory in Standalone Mode. PS mode is configured manually in
the field after the installation. This option allows the user to operate the
air conditioner in a group network with up to 10 units. To support PS mode,
three parameters, H01, H02, and H03 need to be configured. H01 specifies the
operating mode, H02 specifies the device ID, and H03 specifies the total
number of the units in the group network.
Before configuring to operate in PS mode, the user should understand the functionality of the PS mode.
- In the PS mode, all units operate off the cooling/heating setpoint and differential of the primary unit. The system prevents setpoint changes from secondary units.
- The primary unit monitors the enclosure temperatures of all the units and manages the ON/OFF status of cooling and heating based on the unit reporting the highest temperature.
- When cooling is initiated the primary unit energizes first. Secondary units are energized sequentially at 10 second intervals. When heating is initiated all units turn on heat together. When cooling or heating is satisfied all units turn off together.
- If the number of units communicating on the network doesn’t match the value in H03 then the primary unit will display alarm LC, and the secondary units will display alarm LC1 until the communication re-established.
- Any unit that loses communication with the primary unit will enter standalone mode and continue operating based on its own temperature probe until communication is re-established.
- All temperature setpoints and alarms can be viewed remotely if one of the ACUs is equipped with Hoffman network card (RAC module).
- Best recommendation is to configure the ACU that has Hoffman network card to be the primary one.
CONNECTING UNITS TOGETHER IN PRIMARY/SECONDARY MODE

MAINTENANCE
COMPRESSOR
The compressor requires no maintenance. It is hermetically sealed, properly
lubricated at the factory and should provide years of satisfactory operating
service.
Under no circumstances should the access fitting covers be loosened, removed
or tampered with.
Breaking of seals on compressor access fittings during warranty period will
void warranty on hermetic system.
Recharging ports are provided for the ease and convenience of reputable
refrigeration repair service personnel for recharging the air conditioner.
INLET AIR FILTER
This air conditioner was designed with a dust resistant condenser coil. This
allows it to be run filterless in most applications. The air conditioner is
shipped with a filter in place for your convenience. For filterless operation,
simply remove the filter. Should you decide the filter is necessary in your
application, regular maintenance to clean this filter will assure normal
operation of the air conditioner. The easily removable inlet air filter is
located behind the inlet of the front cover. If necessary filter maintenance
is delayed or ignored, the maximum ambient temperatures under which the unit
is designed to operate will be decreased.
If the compressor’s operating temperature increases above designed conditions
due to a dirty or clogged filter (or plugged condenser coil), the air
conditioner’s compressor will stop operating due to actuation of the thermal
overload cut-out switch located on the compressor housing. As soon as the
compressor temperature has dropped to within the switch’s cut-in setting, the
compressor will restart automatically. However the above condition will
continue to take place until the filter or coil has been cleaned. It is
recommended that power to the air conditioner be interrupted intentionally
when abnormally high compressor operating temperature causes automatic shut-
down of the unit. The above described shut-down is symptomatic of a clogged or
dirty filter, thus causing a reduction in cooling air flow across the surface
of the compressor and condenser coil.
HOW TO REMOVE, CLEAN OR INSTALL A NEW INLET AIR FILTER
RP aluminum washable air filters are designed to provide excellent filtering
efficiency with a high dust holding capacity and a minimum amount of
resistance to air flow. Because they are constructed entirely of aluminum they
are lightweight and easy to service. To achieve maximum performance from your
air handling equipment, air filters should be cleaned on a regular basis.
The inlet air filter is located behind the condenser air inlet grille. To
access the filter, simply slide it out. The filter may now be cleaned or a new
filter installed.
Cleaning Instructions:
- Flush the filter with warm water from the exhaust side to the intake side. DO NOT USE CAUSTICS.
- After flushing, allow filter to drain. Placing it with a corner down will assure complete drainage.
CONDENSATE MANAGEMENT AND DRAIN TRAP MAINTENANCE
The drain trap can be cleaned by pouring soapy water into the face of the
evaporator coil. An alternate method is to remove the panel underneath the
condenser coil, locate the drain trap above the condensate evaporator pan, and
blow compressed air through the tube.
CONDENSER AND EVAPORATOR AIR MOVERS
Impeller motors require no maintenance. All bearings, shafts, etc. are
lubricated during manufacturing for the life of the motor.
If the condenser impeller motors (ambient impellers) should fail, it is not
necessary to remove the air conditioner from the cabinet or enclosure to
replace the blower. The condenser impeller is mounted on its own bracket and
is easily accessible by removing the front cover.
If the evaporator impeller motor should fail, it may require dismounting the
unit from the enclosure because access to the evaporator is through the
enclosure side. After it is repaired, refer to Installation Instructions on
page 12 for mounting the unit back onto the enclosure. Replace the mounting
gasket if damaged.
CAUTION MISE EN GARDE
Operation of air conditioner in areas containing airborne caustics or
chemicals can rapidly degrade sealing properties of materials, deteriorate
filters, refrigeration coils, blowers and motors.
Contact nVent Equipment Protection for special recommendations.
REFRIGERANT LOSS
Each air conditioner is thoroughly tested prior to leaving the factory to
insure against refrigeration leaks. Shipping damage or microscopic leaks not
found with sensitive electronic refrigerant leak detection equipment during
manufacture may require repair or recharging of the system. This work should
only be performed by qualified professionals, generally available through a
local, reputable air conditioning repair or service company.
Should the refrigerant charge be lost, access ports on the suction and
discharge sides of the compressor are provided for recharging and/or checking
suction and discharge pressures.
Refer to the data on the nameplate which specifies the type of refrigerant and
the charge size in ounces.
Before recharging, make sure there are no leaks and that the system has been
properly evacuated into a deep vacuum.
