Staged Heat
All Single-phase heater kits are internally staged using B6 and B64 air handler circuit board logic. B6 and B64 single stage air handlers will not stage the heater kit. B6 and B64 two-stage air handlers may stage the heat kW turned on with either a low or high heat call. All 3-phase heater kits are not equipped for internal staging. Refer to the installation instructions supplied with the air handler for additional staging information.

Air Baffle Installation and Usage

1. To identify if a baffle needs to be installed into the blower housing, refer to the “Limit Switch Opening Temperatures Required for Each Heater Kit Combination ” Table 2. Asterisks in the table show where a baffle is used.

2. To install the baffle properly, find the paper template included in the heater kit packaging. Two copies have been provided in case a mistake occurs.

3. Set the thermostat to the lowest temperature setting.

4. Turn off all electrical power to the air handler.

5. Remove blower access door and coil access door from the air handler.

6. Remove mid-cabinet support bracket to be able to slide blower housing out of cabinet.

7. Be aware of where the blue blower limit wires on the blower housing are located and how the ends are located in the blower cabinet of the air handler. ( See Figure 8 to see blower limit wires on a blower housing)

8. Remove the blower housing by unscrewing all of the  screws holding the blower to the blower deck, and then slide the blower housing out of the cabinet.

9. Pull blue blower limit wires out of electrical compartment, and disconnect any blower motor wires to make this process easier.

10. Lay the paper template onto the flat section of the blower housing, shown in the picture below, being sure to match the correct corner of the template to the corresponding corner of the blower housing, shown in Figure **9.

**

11.  Tape to secure, or physically hold the template into the corner of the blower housing without bending it. The locations of the three dots on the template are where you will drill out three clearance holes with a 7/32” drill bit into the blower housing (5mm drill bit also works)
    NOTE : Poking holes in the paper template beforehand will make it easy to mark the sheet metal when you overlay the template.

12. Once the clearance holes are drilled, insert the baffle into the outlet of the blower housing, line up the holes,
    and screw in the 3 supplied #10 self-drilling screws until snug, being sure not to strip any sheet metal. Reference Figure 11 and Figure 12 to see how this should look when completed.

13.  Slide the blower housing back into the cabinet and reconnect any blower limit wires according to the corresponding heater kit wiring diagram, as well as any blower motor wires according to their corresponding air handler wiring diagram.

14.  Reattach mid-cabinet support bracket, and then replace the blower access door and coil access door

MOTOR SPEED SELECTION

Standard Air Handlers
The blower speed is preset at the factory for operation at the same speed for heating and cooling, by using the blower motor jumping terminal on the blower motor and connecting it to the desired speed with both the red and black wires connected to the jumping terminal. For optimum system performance and comfort, it may be necessary to change the factory set speed. To change the blower speed:
WARNING:
To avoid the risk of electric shock, personal injury, or death, disconnect all electrical power to the unit before performing any maintenance or service. The unit may have more than one electrical power supply.

1. Disconnect all electrical power to the unit and remove the upper door.

2.  Remove the black and red wires from the blower motor jumping terminal.

3.  Connect the heating speed wire (red) and the cooling speed wire (black) to the desired blower speed marked on the terminal block of the blower motor. If needed, re-use the motor jumping terminal.
   IMPORTANT NOTE
   After changing the blower speed setting, make sure to bundle and insulate any unused blower motor leads so that they will not make contact with the air handler cabinet or non-insulated live parts.
   Standard 3 Speed Motors
   Terminal 4 = Hi speed
   Terminal 5 = Med speed
   Terminal 6 = Low speed
   For a Table of Minimum heating speeds, limit settings, and baffle usage, see Table 1. Also see Clearances to Combustibles.
   

4. Replace the upper door and secure it to the unit.

5.  Restore power to the unit.

Variable Speed Air Handlers
The minimum electric heat airflow is selected by setting switches on the air handler circuit board. Selecting the minimum electric heat airflow sets the minimum air flow that will be produced whenever electric heater kits are energized. When the electric heater kits are energized along with a heat pump, the airflow may be higher depending on the basic cooling/heat-pump airflow setting. Reference the installation instructions supplied with the air handler for additional airflow information.
