TROUBLESHOOTING THE ECM MOTOR
EcoBlue™ motors are designed with several built-in protections included in the motor software. If the motor detects a fault it will safely shut down. For temperature related faults the motor requires a line voltage reset to continue operation. For all others, the motor will  resumeoperation automatically as soon as the fault condition is cleared. See Table 1 for a complete list.

Table 1 — Fault Condition/Reset Trigger

FAULT CONDITION RESET TRIGGER DESCRIPTION
Phase Failure Automatic One phase is missing or imbalanced. In this case the

motor will come to a stop and then automatically restart when all phases are present.
Locked/ Blocked Rotor| Automatic| The rotor is blocked. Once the locking mechanism has been removed, the motor will automatically restart.
Motor Overheated| Manual| The motor will stop in the event the motor overheats. In this case there has to be a manual restart.
Power Module Overheated| Manual| The motor will stop in the event the electronics overheat. In this case there has to be a manual restart.
Line under- voltage| Automatic| Once the line voltage returns within permitted operating range, the fan will automatically restart.
Communication Error| Automatic| Internal communication error of the fan’s electronics. The fan will restart automatically, if error is cleared.

Troubleshooting the motor requires a voltmeter.

  1. Disconnect main power to the unit.

  2. Disconnect motor plug in supply section of the unit.

  3. Restore main unit power.

  4. Check for proper line voltage at motor power leads Black(PL1-1), Yellow (PL1-2), and Blue (PL1-3). See the following table.

COOLING

WARNING

UNIT OPERATION AND SAFETY HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could cause personal injury, death and/or equipment damage.
This system uses R-410A refrigerant, which has higher pressures than R-22 and other refrigerants. No other refrigerant may be used in this system. Gauge set, hoses, and recovery system must be designed to handle R-410A refrigerant. If unsure about equipment, consult the equipment manufacturer.

Condenser Coil
The condenser coil is fabricated with round tube copper hairpins and plate fins of various materials and/or coatings (see Appendix A — Model Number Nomenclature on page 38 to identify the materials provided in this unit). The coil is a  composite-type 2-row coil. Composite 2-row coils are 2 single-row coils fabricated with a single return bend end timesheet.
Condenser Coil Maintenance and Cleaning  Recommendation
Routine cleaning of coil surfaces is essential to maintain proper operation of the unit. Elimination of contamination and removal of harmful residues will greatly increase the life of the coil and extend the life of the unit. The following  maintenance and cleaning procedures are recommended as part of the routine maintenance activities to extend the life of  the coil.
REMOVE SURFACE LOADED FIBERS
Surface loaded fibers or dirt should be removed with a vacuum cleaner. If a vacuum cleaner is not available, a soft non-metallic bristle brush may be used. In either case, the tool should be applied in the direction of the fins. Coil surfaces can be easily damaged (fin edges can be easily bent over and damage to the coating of a protected coil) if the tool is applied across the fins.
NOTE: Use of a water stream, such as a garden hose, against a surface loaded coil will drive the fibers and dirt into the coil. This will make cleaning efforts more difficult. Surface loaded fibers must be completely removed prior to using low velocity clean water rinse.
PERIODIC CLEAN WATER RINSE
A periodic clean water rinse is very beneficial for coils that are applied in coastal or industrial environments. However, it is very important that the water rinse is made with a very low velocity water stream to avoid damaging the fin edges. Monthly cleaning as described below is recommended. Rinsing coils in the opposite direction of airflow is recommended.
ROUTINE CLEANING OF COIL SURFACES
Periodic cleaning with Totaling ® environmentally balanced coil cleaner is essential to extend the life of coils. This cleaner is available from Replacement Components Division as part number P902-0301 for a one gallon container, and part number P902-0305 for a 5 gallon container. It is recommended that all coils, including standard aluminum, pre-coated, copper/copper or e-coated coils be cleaned with the Totaling environmentally balanced coil cleaner as described below. Coil cleaning should be part of the unit’s regularly scheduled maintenance procedures to ensure long life of the coil. Failure to clean the coils may result in reduced durability in the environment.
Avoid use of:

  • coil brighteners
  • acid cleaning prior to painting
  • high pressure washers
  • poor quality water for cleaning

Totaling environmentally balanced coil cleaner is nonflammable, hypo- allergenic, non-bacterial, and a USDA accepted biodegradable agent that will not harm the coil or surrounding components such as electrical wiring, painted metal  surfaces, or insulation. Use of non-recommended coil cleaners is strongly discouraged since coil and unit durability could be affected.

Two-Row Condenser Coils
Clean coil as follows:

  1. Turn off unit power, tag disconnect.
  2. Remove all screws from the top panel except the screws securing the condenser fan to the top panel. See Fig. 13.Carrier 50JC04-06 Single Package Rooftop Electric Cooling Unit - Coil Corner Post
  3. Lift and rotate the top panel at the condenser fan end and rotate the panel 90 degrees. Support the top panel so it remains level while resting on the condenser fan as shown in Fig. 14.
  4. Remove the compressor access panel to access the lower coil clip. The condenser coil corner post may also be remove.
  5. Remove the screws from both sides of the upper and lower coil retaining clips on the hairpin end of the coil tube sheets. See Fig. 15.
  6. Remove the upper and lower retaining clips.
  7. Draw the inner coil inward to separate the coils for cleaning.
  8. Insert a spacer (field-supplied) between the tube sheets to hold the coils apart. See Fig. 16.
  9. Clean the outer coil surface to remove surface loaded fibers or dirt. See “Remove Surface Loaded Fibers” on page 8 for details.
  10. Use a water hose or other suitable equipment to flush down between the 2 coil sections to remove dirt and debris. If a coil cleaner is used be sure to rinse the coils completely before reassembly.
  11. Move the inner coil back into position. Reinstall the lower and upper coil clips. Reinstall the top panel and replace all screws.

CAUTION
UNIT DAMAGE HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution may result in reduced unit performance or unit shutdown.
High velocity water from a pressure washer, garden hose, or compressed air should never be used to clean a coil. The force of the water or air jet will bend the fin edges and increase airside pressure drop.
CAUTION
UNIT DAMAGE HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution may result in accelerated corrosion of unit parts.
Harsh chemicals, household bleach or acid or basic cleaners should not be used to clean outdoor or indoor coils of any kind. These cleaners can be very difficult to rinse out of the coil and can accelerate corrosion at the fin/tube interface  where dissimilar materials are in contact. If there is dirt below the surface of the coil, use the environmentally balanced coil cleaner.
Totaling Environmentally Balanced Coil Cleaner Application Equipment

  • 2-1/2 gallon garden sprayer
  • Water rinse with low velocity spray nozzle

Totaline Environmentally Balanced Coil Cleaner Application Instructions

  1. Proper eye protection such as safety glasses is recommended during mixing and application.

  2. Remove all surface loaded fibers and dirt with a vacuum cleaner as described above.

  3. Thoroughly wet finned surfaces with clean water and a low velocity garden hose, being careful not to bend fins.

  4. Mix Totaline environmentally balanced coil cleaner in a 2-1/2 gallon garden sprayer according to the instructions included with the cleaner. The optimum solution temperature is 100°F.
    NOTE: Do NOT USE water in excess of 130°F, as the enzymatic activity will be destroyed.

  5. Thoroughly apply Totaline environmentally balanced coil cleaner solution to all coil surfaces including finned area, tube sheets and coil headers.

  6. Hold garden sprayer nozzle close to finned areas and apply cleaner with a vertical, up-and-down motion. Avoid spraying in horizontal pattern to minimize potential for fin damage.

  7. Ensure cleaner thoroughly penetrates deep into finned areas. Interior and exterior finned areas must be thoroughly cleaned. Finned surfaces should remain wet with cleaning solution for 10 minutes. Ensure surfaces are not allowed to dry before rinsing. Reapply cleaner as needed to ensure 10-minute saturation is achieved.

  8. Thoroughly rinse all surfaces with low velocity clean water using downward rinsing motion of water spray nozzle. Protect fins from damage from the spray nozzle.

Evaporator Coil
CLEANING THE EVAPORATOR COIL

  1. Turn unit power off. Install lockout tag. Remove evaporator coil access panel.
  2. If economizer or two-position damper is installed, remove economizer by disconnecting Molex ®1 plug and removing mounting screws.
  3. Slide filters out of unit.
  4. Clean coil using a commercial coil cleaner or dishwasher detergent in a pressurized spray canister. Wash both sides of coil and flush with clean water. For best results, backflush toward return-air section to remove foreign material. Flush condensate pan after completion.
  5. Reinstall economizer and filters.
  6. Reconnect wiring.
  7. Replace access panels.

THERMOSTATIC EXPANSION VALVE (TXV)

All 50JC units have a factory-installed nonadjustable thermostatic expansion valve (TXV). The TXV is a bi-flow, bleed port expansion valve with an external equalizer. The TXVs are specifically designed to operate with  Puro ® refrigerant. Use only  factory-authorized TXVs.
TXV Operation
The TXV is a metering device that is used in air conditioning and heat pump systems to adjust to the changing load conditions by maintaining a preset superheat temperature at the outlet of the evaporator coil. The volume of refrigerant metered through the valve seat is dependent upon the following:

  1. Superheat temperature is sensed by cap tube sensing bulb on suction tube at outlet of evaporator coil. This temperature is converted into pressure by refrigerant in the bulb pushing downward on the diaphragm, which opens the valve using the push rods.
  2. The suction pressure at the outlet of the evaporator coil is transferred through the external equalizer tube to the underside of the diaphragm.
  3. The pin is spring loaded, which exerts pressure on the underside of the diaphragm. Therefore, the bulb pressure works against the spring pressure and evaporator suction pressure to open the valve. If the load increases, the temperature increases at the bulb, which increases the pressure on the top side of the diaphragm. This opens the valve and increases the flow of refrigerant. The increased refrigerant flow causes the leaving evaporator temperature to decrease. This lowers the pressure on the diaphragm and closes the pin. The refrigerant flow is effectively stabilized to the load demand with negligible change in superheat.

Replacing TXV

  1. Recover refrigerant.
  2. Remove TXV support clamp using a 5/l6 in. nut driver.
  3. Remove TXV using a wrench and an additional wrench on connections to prevent damage to tubing.
  4. Remove equalizer tube from suction line of coil. Use file or tubing cutter to cut brazed equalizer line approximately 2 inches above suction tube.
  5. Remove bulb from vapor tube inside cabinet.
  6. Install the new TXV using a wrench and an additional wrench on connections to prevent damage to tubing while attaching TXV to distributor.
  7. Attach the equalizer tube to the suction line. If the coil has a mechanical connection, then use a wrench and an additional wrench on connections to prevent damage. If the coil has a brazed connection, use a file or a tubing cutter to remove the mechanical flare nut from the equalizer line. Then use a new coupling to braze the equalizer line to the stub (previous equalizer line) in suction line.
  8. Attach TXV bulb in the same location where the original (in the sensing bulb indent) was when it was removed, using the supplied bulb clamps. See Fig. 17.
  9. Route equalizer tube through suction connection opening (large hole) in fitting panel and install fitting panel in place.
  10. Sweat the inlet of TXV marked “IN” to the liquid line. Avoid excessive heat which could damage the TXV valve. Use quenching cloth when applying heat anywhere on TXV.

Refrigerant System Pressure Access Ports
There are 2 access ports in the system: on the suction tube near the compressor and on the discharge tube near the compressor. These are brass fittings with black plastic caps. The hose connection fittings are standard 1/4 in. SAE male flare couplings.
The brass fittings are 2-piece high flow valves, with a receptacle base brazed to the tubing and an integral spring-closed check valve core screwed into the base. See Fig. 18. This check valve is permanently assembled into this core body and cannot be serviced separately; replace the entire core body if necessary. Service tools are available from RCD that allow the replacement of the check valve core without having to recover the entire system refrigerant charge. Apply compressor refrigerant oil to the check valve core’s bottom O-ring. Install the fitting body with 96 ± 10 in.-lb (10.85 ± 1.1 Nm) of torque; do not over-tighten.Carrier 50JC04-06 Single Package Rooftop

PURON (R-410A) REFRIGERANT

This unit is designed for use with Puron ® (R-410A) refrigerant. Do not use any other refrigerant in this system.
Puron (R-410A) refrigerant is provided in pink (rose) colored cylinders. These cylinders are available with and without dip tubes; cylinders with dip tubes will have a label indicating this feature. For a cylinder with a dip tube, place the cylinder in the upright position (access valve at the top) when removing liquid refrigerant for charging. For a cylinder without a dip tube, invert the cylinder (access valve on the bottom) when removing liquid refrigerant.
Because Puron (R-410A) refrigerant is a blend, it is strongly recommended that refrigerant always be removed from the cylinder as a liquid. Admit liquid refrigerant into the system in the discharge line. If adding refrigerant into the suction line, use a commercial metering/expansion device at the gauge manifold; remove liquid from the cylinder, pass it through the metering device at the gauge set and then pass it into the suction line as a vapor. Do not remove Puron (R-410A) refrigerant from the cylinder as a vapor.
Refrigerant Charge
Amount of refrigerant charge is listed on the unit’s nameplate. Refer to Carrier GTAC2-5 Charging, Recovery, Recycling and Reclamation training manual and the following procedures.
Unit panels must be in place when unit is operating during the charging procedure.
NO CHARGE
Use standard evacuating techniques. After evacuating system, weigh in the specified amount of refrigerant.
LOW-CHARGE COOLING
Using Cooling Charging Charts, Fig. 19-24, vary refrigerant until the conditions of the appropriate chart are met. Note the charging charts are different from type normally used. Charts are based on charging the units to the correct sub- cooling for the various operating conditions. Accurate pressure gauge and temperature sensing device are required. Connect the pressure gauge to the service port on the liquid line. Mount the temperature sensing device on the liquid  line and insulate it so that outdoor ambient temperature does not affect the reading. Indoorair cfm must be within the normal operating range of the unit.

COMPRESSOR

Lubrication
The compressor is charged with the correct amount of oil at the factory.

CAUTION
UNIT DAMAGE HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution may result in damage to components.
The compressor is in a R-410A refrigerant system and uses a polyol ester (POE) oil. This oil is extremely hygroscopic, meaning it absorbs water readily. POE oils can absorb 15 times as much water as other oils designed for HCFC and
CFC refrigerants. Avoid exposure of the oil to the atmosphere.
WARNING
FIRE, EXPLOSION HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in death, serious personal injury and/or property damage.
Never use air or gases containing oxygen for leak testing or for operating refrigerant compressors. Pressurized mixtures of air or gases containing oxygen can lead to an explosion.
WARNING
FIRE, EXPLOSION HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in death, serious personal injury and/or property damage.
Never use non-certified refrigerants in this product. Noncertified refrigerants could contain contaminates that could lead to unsafe operating conditions. Use ONLY refrigerants that conform to AHRI Standard 700.
Replacing Compressor
NOTE: Only factory-trained service technicians should remove and replace compressor units.
CAUTION
INSTALLATION SITE DAMAGE
Failure to follow this caution can result in damage to equipment location site.
R-410A refrigerant contains polyol ester (POE) oil that can damage the roof membrane. Caution should be taken to prevent POE oil from spilling onto the roof surface. The factory also recommends that the suction and discharge lines be  cut with a tubing cutter instead of using a torch to remove brazed fittings.

Compressor Rotation

CAUTION
EQUIPMENT DAMAGE HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution can result in premature wear and damage to equipment.
Scroll compressors can only compress refrigerant if rotating in the right direction. Reverse rotation for extended times can result in internal damage to the compressor. Scroll compressors are sealed units and cannot be repaired on site location.
NOTE: When the compressor is rotating in the wrong direction, the unit makes an elevated level of noise and does not provide cooling.
50JC units have scroll compressors; it is important to be certain compressor is rotating in the proper direction. To determine whether or not compressor is rotating in the proper direction:

  1. Connect service gauges to suction and discharge pressure fittings.

  2. Energize the compressor.

  3. The suction pressure should drop and the discharge pressure should rise, as is normal on any start-up.
    NOTE: If the suction pressure does not drop and the discharge pressure does not rise to normal levels, the evaporator fan is probably also rotating in the wrong direction.

  4. Turn off power to the unit.

  5. Reverse any 2 of the 3 unit power leads.

  6. Reapply electrical power to the compressor. The suction pressure should drop and the discharge pressure should rise which is normal for scroll compressors on start-up.

  7. Replace compressor if suction/discharge pressures are not within specifications for the specific compressor.
    The suction and discharge pressure levels should now move to their normal start-up levels.

Filter Drier
Replace whenever refrigerant system is exposed to atmosphere.
Only use factory specified liquid-line filter driers with working pressures no less than 650 psig. Do not install a suction-line filter drier in liquid line. A liquid-line filter drier designed for use with Puron refrigerant is required on every  unit.

Condenser-Fan Adjustment

  1. Shut off unit power supply. Install lockout tag.
  2. Remove condenser-fan assembly (grille, motor, and fan). See Fig. 25.
  3. Loosen fan hub setscrews.
  4. Adjust fan height by pushing fan until it stops on the fan shaft.
  5. Tighten set screw to 60 in.-lb (6.78 Nm).
  6. Replace condenser-fan assembly. When replacing the condenser-fan assembly follow the screw pattern sequence shown in Fig. 26. The screws must be replaced in the sequence shown in the figure.

CONVENIENCE OUTLETS

WARNING
ELECTRICAL OPERATION HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury or death.
Units with convenience outlet circuits may use multiple disconnects. Check convenience outlet for power status before opening unit for service. Locate its disconnect switch, if appropriate, and open it. Lock-out and tag-out this switch, if
necessary.
Convenience Outlets
Two types of convenience outlets are offered on 50JC models: non-powered and unit-powered. Both types provide a 125 vac ground-fault circuit-interrupt (GFCI) duplex receptacle rated at 15A behind a hinged waterproof access cover, located on the end panel of the unit. See Fig. 27.Carrier 50JC04-06 Single
Package Rooftop Electric Cooling Unit - Cooling Charging Chart — Convenience
Outlet Location

Installing Weatherproof Cover
A weatherproof while-in-use cover for the factory installed convenience outlets is now required by UL standards. This cover cannot be factory-mounted due to its depth. The cover must be installed at unit installation. For shipment,  the  convenience outlet is covered with a blank cover plate.
The weatherproof cover kit is shipped in the unit’s control box. The kit includes the hinged cover, a backing plate and gasket. NOTE: DISCONNECT ALL POWER TO UNIT AND CONVENIENCE OUTLET. Use approved lockout/tag-out
procedures.

  1. Remove the blank cover plate at the convenience outlet; discard the blank cover.
  2. Loosen the 2 screws at the GFCI duplex outlet, until approximately 1/2 in. (13 mm) under screw heads is exposed.
  3. Press the gasket over the screw heads. Slip the backing plate over the screw heads at the keyhole slots and align with the gasket; tighten the 2 screws until snug (do not over-tighten).
  4. Mount the weatherproof cover to the backing plate as shown in Fig. 28.Carrier 50JC04-06 Single Package Rooftop Electric Cooling Unit - Cooling Charging Chart — Weatherproof
  5. Remove 2 slot fillers in the bottom of the cover to permit service tool cords to exit the cover.
  6. Check cover installation for full closing and latching.

Non-Powered Type
This type requires the field installation of a general-purpose 125-v 15-A circuit powered from a source elsewhere in the building.
Observe national and local codes when selecting wire size, fuse or breaker requirements and disconnect switch size and location.
Route 125-v power supply conductors into the bottom of the utility box containing the duplex receptacle.
Unit-Powered Type
A unit-mounted transformer is factory-installed to step-down the main power supply voltage to the unit to 115-v at the duplex receptacle. This option also includes a manual switch with fuse, located in a utility box and mounted on a bracket behind the convenience outlet; access is through the unit’s control box access panel. See Fig. 27.
The primary leads to the convenience outlet transformer are not factory- connected. Selection of primary power source is a customer  option. If local codes permit, the transformer primary leads can be connected at the line-side terminals on a unit mounted non-fused disconnect or Heating, Air Conditioning and Refrigeration (HACR) breaker switch; this will provide service power to the unit when the unit disconnect switch or HACR switch is open. Other connection methods will result in the convenience outlet circuit being de- energized when the unit disconnect or HACR switch is open. See Fig. 29. Carrier 50JC04-06 Single Package Rooftop Electric Cooling Unit - Cooling
Charging Chart — — Powered Convenience Outlet Wiring

Duty Cycle
The unit-powered convenience outlet has a duty cycle limitation. The transformer is intended to provide power on an intermittent basis for service tools, lamps, etc; it is not intended to provide 15A loading for continuous duty loads  (such as electric heaters for overnight use). Observe a 50% limit on circuit load- ing above 8A (i.e., limit loads exceeding 8A to 30 minutes of operation every hour).
Maintenance
Periodically test the GFCI receptacle by pressing the TEST button on the face of the receptacle. This should cause the internal circuit of the receptacle to trip and open the receptacle. Check for proper grounding wires and power line phasing if the GFCI receptacle does not trip as required. Press the RESET button to clear the tripped condition.
Fuse on Powered Type
The factory fuse is a Bussmann ™1 Fuse Tron ™1 T-15, nonrenewable screw-in (Edison base) type plug fuse.
USING UNIT-MOUNTED CONVENIENCE OUTLETS
Units with unit-mounted convenience outlet circuits will often require that 2 disconnects be opened to de-energize all power to the unit. Treat all units as electrically energized until the convenience outlet power is also checked and de- energization is confirmed. Observe National Electrical Code Article 210, Branch Circuits, for use of convenience outlets.

**ELECTRIC HEATERS

**

The 50JC units can be equipped electric heaters as either a factory-installed option or a field-installed accessory. The heaters are modular in design, with heater frames holding open coil resistance wires strung through ceramic insulators and control contactor(s), using a combination of 24-v control side break/auto-reset or line-break/auto-reset limit switches and a pilot- circuit/manual reset limit switch to protect the unit against over-temperature situations. All 50JC Model electric heaters are one module containing either one or 2 banks of electric heat coils.
Heater modules are installed in the compartment below the indoor (supply) fan outlet. Access is through the indoor access panel. Heater modules slide into the compartment on tracks along the bottom of the heater opening. See Fig. 30-32.

Not all available heater modules can be used in every unit. Use only those heater modules that are UL listed for use in a specific size unit. Refer to the label on the unit cabinet regarding approved heaters. Carrier 50JC04-06
Single Package Rooftop Electric Cooling Unit - Typical Module
Installation

SINGLE POINT BOXES AND SUPPLEMENTARY FUSES
When the unit MOCP device value exceeds 60A, unit-mounted supplementary fuses are required for each heater circuit. These fuses are included in accessory single point boxes, with power distribution and fuse blocks. The single point ox will be installed directly under the unit control box, just to the left of the partition separating the indoor section (with electric heaters) from the outdoor section. The single point box has a hinged access cover. See Fig. 33.

On 50JC units, all fuses are 60A. Single point boxes containing fuses for 208/230-v applications use UL Class RK5 250-v fuses (Bussmann ™1 FRNR 60 or Ferraz Shawmut TR 60R). Single point boxes for 460-v and 575-v applications use UL Class T 600Hv fuses (Bussmann ™1 JJS 60 or Ferris Shawmut A6T 60). (Note that all heaters are qualified for use with a 60A fuse, regardless of actual heater ampacity, so only 60A fuses are necessary.)
SAFETY DEVICES
CRHEATERS323A00-340A00 electric heater applications use a combination of 24-v control side break/auto-reset, line-break/non-resettable “one shot” limit switches and a fan stator/manual reset limit switch to protect the unit against overtemperature situations.
Line-break/auto-reset limit switches, 24-v control side break/auto-reset and line-break/non-resettable “one shot” limit switches are mounted on the base plate of each heater module. See Fig. 34. These are accessed through the indoor access panel. Remove the switch by removing 2 screws into the base plate and extracting the existing switch.
Fan stator/manual reset limit switch is located in the side plate of the indoor (supply) fan housing. See Fig. 34.Carrier 50JC04-06 Single Package

Installation

FIELD POWER CONNECTIONS
Tap conductors must be installed between the base unit’s field power connection lugs and the single point box (with or without fuses). See Fig. 35. Refer to unit wiring schematic. Use copper wire only. For connection using the single point box without fuses, connect the field power supply conductors to the heater power leads and the field-supplied tap conductors inside the single point box. Use UL-approved pressure connectors (field-supplied) for these splice joints.
LOW-VOLTAGE CONTROL CONNECTIONS
Pull the low-voltage control leads from the heater module(s) — ORN, VIO and BRN — to the 4-pole terminal board TB4 located on the heater bulkhead to the left of heater 1. Connect the ORN lead to terminal TB4-1. Connect the VIO lead to terminal TB4-2. Connect the BRN lead to terminal TB4-3.

Control

SMOKE DETECTORS

Smoke detectors are available as factory-installed options on 50JC models. Smoke detectors may be specified for supply air only, for return air without or with economizer, or in combination of supply air and return air. Return air smoke detectors are arranged for vertical return configurations only. All components necessary for operation are factory-provided and mounted. The unit is factory configured for immediate smoke detector shutdown operation; additional wiring or modifications to unit terminal board may be necessary to complete the unit and smoke detector configuration to meet project requirements.
System
The smoke detector system consists of a 4-wire controller and one or 2 sensors. Its primary function is to shut down the rooftop unit in order to prevent smoke from circulating throughout the building. It is not to be used as a life saving  device.
Controller
The controller (see Fig. 36) includes a controller housing, a printed circuit board, and a clear plastic cover. The controller can be connected to one or 2 compatible duct smoke sensors. The clear plastic cover is secured to the housing with a single captive screw for easy access to the wiring terminals. The controller has 3 LEDs (for Power, Trouble and Alarm) and a manual test/reset button (on the cover face).
Smoke Detector Sensor
The smoke detector sensor (see Fig. 37) includes a plastic housing, a printed circuit board, a clear plastic cover, a sampling tube inlet and an exhaust tube. The sampling tube (when used) and exhaust tube are attached during installation.  The sampling tube varies in length depending on the size of the rooftop unit. The clear plastic cover permits visual inspections without having to disassemble the sensor. The cover attaches to the sensor housing using 4 captive screws and  forms an airtight chamber around the sensing electronics. Each sensor includes a harness with an RJ45 terminal for connecting to the controller. Each sensor has 4 LEDs (for Power, Trouble, Alarm and Dirty) and a manual test/reset  button (on the left-side of the housing).Carrier 50JC04-06 Single Package Rooftop Electric Cooling Unit -
Controller Assembly![Carrier 50JC04-06 Single Package Rooftop Electric Cooling Unit

Air is introduced to the duct smoke detector sensor’s sensing chamber through a sampling tube that extends into the HVAC duct and is directed back into the ventilation system through a (shorter) exhaust tube.
The difference in air pressure between the 2 tubes pulls the sampled air through the sensing chamber. When a sufficient amount of smoke is detected in the sensing chamber, the sensor signals an alarm state and the controller automatically takes the appropriate action to shut down fans and blowers, change over air handling systems, notify the fire alarm control panel, etc.
The sensor uses a process called differential sensing to prevent gradual environmental changes from triggering false alarms. A rapid change in environmental conditions, such as smoke from a fire, causes the sensor to signal an alarm state but dust and debris accumulated over time does not.
The difference in air pressure between the 2 tubes pulls the sampled air through the sensing chamber. When a sufficient amount of smoke is detected in the sensing chamber, the sensor signals an alarm state and the controller automatically takes the appropriate action to shut down fans and blowers, change over air handling systems, notify the fire alarm control panel, etc.
For installations using 2 sensors, the duct smoke detector does not differentiate which sensor signals an alarm or trouble condition.

Smoke Detector Locations
SUPPLY AIR
The supply air smoke detector sensor is located to the right of the unit’s indoor (supply) fan. See Fig. 38. Access is through the fan access panel. The sampling tube inlet extends through the fan deck (into a high pressure area). The  controller is located on a bracket to the right of the return filter, accessed through the lift-off filter panel.

Indicators
NORMAL STATE
The smoke detector operates in the normal state in the absence of any trouble conditions and when its sensing chamber is free of smoke. In the normal state, the Power LED on both the sensor and the controller are on and all other LEDs are off.
ALARM STATE
The smoke detector enters the alarm state when the amount of smoke particulate in the sensor’s sensing chamber exceeds the alarm threshold value. (See Table .) Upon entering the alarm state:

  • The sensor’s Alarm LED and the controller’s Alarm LED turn on.
  • The contacts on the controller’s 2 auxiliary relays switch positions.
  • The contacts on the controller’s alarm initiation relay close.
  • The controller’s remote alarm LED output is activated (turned on).
  • The controller’s high impedance multiple fan shutdown control line is pulled to ground Trouble state.

The SuperDuct™ duct smoke detector enters the trouble state under the following conditions:

  • A sensor’s cover is removed and 20 minutes pass before it is properly secured.

  • A sensor’s environmental compensation limit is reached (100% dirty).

  • A wiring fault between a sensor and the controller is detected.
    An internal sensor fault is detected upon entering the trouble state:

  • The contacts on the controller’s supervisory relay switch positions. (See Fig. 46.)

  • If a sensor trouble, the sensor’s Trouble LED the controller’s Trouble LED turn on.

  • If 100% dirty, the sensor’s Dirty LED turns on and the controller’s Trouble LED flashes continuously.

  • If a wiring fault between a sensor and the controller, the controller’s Trouble LED turns on but not the sensor’s.

SYSTEMVU CONTROL SYSTEM’

The SystemVu™ control is a comprehensive unit-management system. The control system is easy to access, configure, diagnose and troubleshoot.
The SystemVu control system is fully communicating and cableready for connection to the Carrier Comfort Network ® (CCN), Carrier i-Vu ® , and Third Party BACnet ™1 building management systems. The control provides high-speed communications for remote monitoring via the Internet. Multiple units can be linked together (and to other Direct Digital Control (DDC) equipped units) using a 3-wire communication bus.
The SystemVu control system is easy to access through the use of a integrated display module. A computer is not required for start-up. Access to control menus is simplified by the ability to quickly select from 7 main menu items. An expanded readout provides detailed explanations of control information. Only 6 buttons are required to maneuver through the entire controls menu. The display readout is designed to be visible even in bright sunlight. See Fig. 47.

SystemVu Interface
This integrated device is the keypad interface used to access the control information, read sensor values, and test the unit. The interface is located in the main control box.
Through the SystemVu interface, the user can access all of the inputs and outputs to check on their values and status, configure operating parameters, and evaluate the current decision status for operating modes. The control also includes an alarm history which can be accessed from the display. The user can access a built-in test routine that can be used at start-up commissioning and troubleshooting.

Air Temperature Sensors
The SystemVu controller uses thermistors to sense temperatures used to control operation of the unit. Air temperatures are measured with 10k thermistors. This includes supply-air temperature (SAT), outdoor-air temperature (OAT) and return-air temperature (RAT) sensors. See Fig. 48 for location of these sensors.
Additional SystemVu Installation and Troubleshooting
Additional installation, wiring and troubleshooting information for the SystemVu Controller can be found in the following manual: 48/50JC 04-06 Ultra High Efficiency Single Package Rooftop Units with SystemVu™ Controls Version X.X Controls, Start-up, Operation and Troubleshooting Instructions.

COMPRESSOR VFD

The 50JC units are equipped with a variable speed compressor. To control this compressor a Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) is required. This VFD does not look like the typical VFD the industry might be used to. This VFD is not ackaged into its own housing to appear as a single component, it is comprised of 5 electronic components mounted in the unit’s control box. See Fig. 49 for the control box layout. The 5 components are the main drive board, filter board, capacitor board, choke, and converter board. On 575 volt units the filter board and capacitor board are replaced with 3-phase line reactor.

Drive Board
The drive board is the heart of the VFD. It contains the safety logic and the power conversations needed for the variable speed operation. This drive board will take in the 60 Hz supply voltage and modify it to drive the speed of the compressor, this is done with voltage and frequency. The drive board is responsible for monitoring the safety high pressure switch (HPS) and ensure the compressor is immediately turned off upon HPS trip. There is a discharge line thermistor (DLT) also provided that the drive board monitors. This is for situations where there are high line temperatures without the pressure being high enough to indicate a problem. The drive board has built in logic independent of the SystemVu logic to fold back the speed of the compressor in the event of a high current or high temperature situation. This high current is determine based on the speed ranges, so not just one current limit. The drive board has its own built in start-up and speed ramp protections, however, these are smaller than what the SystemVu controller uses. Review the Compressor Control section for SystemVu controller start and ramp functions found in the 48/50JC 04-06 Ultra High Efficiency Single Package Rooftop Units with SystemVu™ Controls Version X.X Controls, Start-up, Operation and Troubleshooting Instructions manual. There is a heat sink mounted on the back of this drive board to help cool the electronics. The drive board only communicates via Modbus and has local LEDs to show status and errors. The converter board will be used as the primary interface to this drive board, so refer to that section for more details. See Fig. 50 and Table 5 on page 29 for more details on the drive board.

CAUTION

UNIT DAMAGE HAZARD
Do not bypass the Drive board and pass the standard power supply to the compressor, damage may occur.

CAUTION

UNIT DAMAGE HAZARD
If replacing the Drive board remove the whole assembly (heat sink and electronic board together). Never separate this assembly on the replacement part.

Converter Board

The converter board is the primary interface for troubleshooting, as well as SystemVu control’s interface to the VFD. The purpose of the converter board is to provide an interface to the drive board while converting the SystemVu control signal into the Modbus communication the drive board requires. The converter board is also responsible for providing configurations to the drive board. This is done through the 4 rotary switches mounted on the board. The required settings are listed below and printed on the unit schematics. See Fig. 51, Table 6, and Table 7 on page 30 for more details on the converter board.
The converter board has a 4-digit display to provide feedback for troubleshooting. It will read “IDLE” when in standby waiting for a signal, and the software version “S##.#” will alternate with “IDLE” during standby. It will show the actual compressor running rpm while performing cooling. It will display an “E-##” if an error occurs in the converter board or drive board. Use the converter board error code table (Table 9) for troubleshooting. If the drive board is folding back the speed to protect the current the running rpm will alternate with “Sd##” where the number indicates the reason for fold back. See Table 8 for the foldback codes.

WARNING

ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury, or death.
Unit is equipped with capacitors that take time to discharge after power disconnect. Before performing service or maintenance operations on this unit, ensure the power has been off to the unit and locked out for at least 5 minutes.
After removal of the high voltage cover, ensure all LED lights are off.

The Capacitor board is a support board that helps stabilize the DC bus used by the drive board. There is a green LED mounted on the board to indicate it has live voltage. The polarity is sensitive since this is a DC voltage. Inspect the capacitors for bulging when troubleshooting. See Fig. 53 and Table 11 below for more details on the capacitor board.

LINE REACTOR
The line reactor is only used on 575 volt units. It is mounted and used in place of the filter board and capacitor board. The line reactor protects the drive board from noise and spikes on the supply voltage. This is a 3-phase line reactor so there is a filter for each line of the 3-phase power. There are 2 terminals for each phase and not direction sensitive. For troubleshooting, check the voltage for each phase going in and out of the line reactor to ensure they are the same.
CHOKE
The choke is the heaviest component and used to protect the DC bus from voltage spikes.
This is wired between the  +DC output of the drive board and the +DC input to the capacitor board. It is not direction sensitive so  the wires can be swapped.Make sure the voltage is the same leaving the drive board as entering the  capacitor board.

    b. Recover refrigerant to relieve all pressure from system using both high- pressure and low pressure ports.
    c. Do not use a torch. Cut component connection tubing with tubing cutter and remove component from unit.
    d. Carefully un-sweat remaining tubing stubs when necessary. Oil can ignite when exposed to torch flame.

  3. Do not operate compressor or provide any electric power to unit unless compressor terminal cover is in place and secured.

  4. Do not remove compressor terminal cover until all electrical power is disconnected and approved lockout/tag-out procedures are in place.

  5. Relieve all pressure from system before touching or disturbing anything inside terminal box whenever refrigerant leak is suspected around compressor terminals.

  6. Never attempt to repair a soldered connection while refrigerant system is under pressure.

WARNING

ELECTRICAL OPERATION HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury or death.
The unit must be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes and NEC ANSI/NFPA 70 (American National Standards Institute/National Fire Protection Association).

Proceed as follows to inspect and prepare the unit for initial start-up:

  1. Remove all access panels.

  2. Read and follow instructions on all WARNING, CAUTION, and INFORMATION labels attached to, or shipped with, unit.

  3. Make the following inspections:
    a. Inspect for shipping and handling damages such as broken lines, loose parts, or disconnected wires, etc.
    b. Inspect for oil at all refrigerant tubing connections and n unit base. Detecting oil generally indicates a refriger- ant leak. Leak-test all refrigerant tubing connections using electronic leak detector, halide torch, or liquidsoap solution.
    c. Inspect all field-wiring and factory-wiring connections.
    Be sure that connections are completed and tight. Be sure that wires are not in contact with refrigerant tubing or sharp edges.
    d. Inspect coil fins. If damaged during shipping and handling, carefully straighten fins with a fin comb.

  4. Verify the following conditions:
    a. Make sure that condenser-fan blade are correctly positioned in fan orifice. See Condenser Fan Adjustment section for more details.
    b. Make sure that air filter(s) is in place.
    c. Make sure that condensate drain trap is filled with water to ensure proper drainage.
    d. Make sure that all tools and miscellaneous loose parts have been removed.

START-UP, GENERAL

Unit Preparation
Make sure that unit has been installed in accordance with installation instructions and applicable codes.
In addition to the base unit start-up (unit with electro-mechani- cal control), there are a few steps needed to properly start-up units with optional direct digital controls (DDC). The DDC’s Service Test function should be used to assist in the base unit start-up and also allows verification of output operation. Controller configuration is also part of start-up. This is especially important when field accessories have been added to the unit. The factory pre-configures options installed at the factory. There may also be additional installation steps or inspection required during the start-up process.
Additional Installation/Inspection
Inspect the field-installed accessories for proper installation, making note of which ones do or do not require configuration changes. Inspect the DDC Alarms for initial insight to any potential issues. Refer to the Controls, Start-up, Operation and Troubleshooting Instructions manual for the specific DDC. Inspect the SAT sensor for relocation as intended during installation. Inspect special wiring as directed below.

Return-Air Filters
Ensure correct filters are installed in unit (see Appendix B —  Physical Data on page 39). Do not operate unit without returnair filters.
Outdoor-Air Inlet Screens
Outdoor-air inlet screen must be in place before operating unit.
Compressor Mounting
Compressors are internally spring mounted. Do not loosen or remove compressor hold down bolts.
Internal Wiring
Check all electrical connections in unit control boxes. Tighten as required.
Refrigerant Service Ports
Each unit system has two 1/4 in. SAE flare (with check valves)service ports: one on the suction line, and one on the compress- soar discharge line. Be sure that caps on the ports are tight.

Compressor Rotation

CAUTION

EQUIPMENT DAMAGE HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution can result in premature wear anddamage to equipment.
Scroll compressors can only compress refrigerant if rotating in the right direction. Reverse rotation for extended times can result in internal damage to the compressor. Scroll compressors are sealed units and cannot be repaired on site location.
50JC units use scroll compressors; it is important to be certain compressor is rotating in the proper direction. To determine whether or not compressor is rotating in the proper direction:

  1. Connect service gauges to suction and discharge pressure fittings.
  2. Energize the compressor.
  3. The suction pressure should drop and the discharge pressure should rise, as is normal on any start-up.

If the suction pressure does not drop and the discharge pressure does not rise to normal levels:

  1. Note that the evaporator fan is probably also rotating in the wrong direction.
  2. Turn off power to the unit and install lockout tag.
  3. Reverse any 2 of the unit power leads.
  4. Re-energize to the compressor. Check pressures.
    The suction and discharge pressure levels should now move to their normal start-up levels.

NOTE : When the compressor is rotating in the wrong direction, the unit will make an elevated level of noise and will not provide cooling.

APPENDIX C — FAN PERFORMANCE

GENERAL FAN PERFORMANCE NOTES

  1. Interpolation is permissible. Do not extrapolate.

  2. External static pressure is the static pressure difference between the return duct and the supply duct plus the static pressure caused by any FIOPs or accessories.

  3. Tabular data accounts for pressure loss due to clean filters, unit casing, wet coils, and highest gas heat exchanger (when gas heat unit).

  4. Factory options and accessories may effect static pressure losses. Gas heat unit fan tables assume highest gas heat models; for fan selections with low or medium heat models, the user must deduct low and medium heat static pressures.
    Selection software is available, through your salesperson,  tohelp you select the best motor/drive combination for your application.

  5. The fan performance tables offer motor/drive recommenda tions. In cases when 2 motor/drive combinations would work, Carrier recommends the lower horsepower option.

  6. For information on the electrical properties of Carrier motors, please see the Electrical Data section of the product data book for this model and size.

  7. For more information on the performance limits of Carrier motors, see the Application Data section of the product data book for this model and size.

  8. The EPACT (Energy Policy Act of 1992) regulates energy requirements for specific types of indoor fan motors. Motors regulated by EPACT include any general purpose, T-frame (3-digit, 143 and larger), single-speed, foot  ounted, polyphase, squirrel cage induction motors of NEMA (National Electrical Manufacturers Association) design A and B, manufactured for use in the United States. Ranging from 1 to 200 Hp, these continuous-duty motors operate on 230 and 460 volt, 60 Hz power. If a motor does not fit into these specifications, the motor does not have to be replaced by an EPACT compliant energy-efficient motor. Variable- speed motors are exempt from EPACT compliance requirements.
