EVALUATING MOTOR SPEED
The direct drive ECM blower motor uses a constant speed design. Motor speed is
controlled by a 0-10 vdc signal, where 10 vdc is equal to motor’s maximum RPM.
SELECTING FAN SPEED
All units come factory set for 7.8 vdc or approximately 78% of the motor’s
maximum speed. Fan speed should be set per job specification CFM (cubic feet
per minute) and ESP (external static pressure) required, and per the Fan speed
set up label included on the unit’s high voltage cover. In some cases, the Fan
Speed Set Up label may already include the field setting if unit was
previously installed. Check the box on the lower half of the label to see if
the field voltage setting was filled in and if so, set fan speed to that
voltage. Otherwise see the following detailed instructions.
NOTE: Fan Speed Set-Up is for full load airflow. If the unit has multiple
stages of cooling, low cool and ventilation may operate at lower fan rpms.
This offset is factory set and controlled by the UCB. If fan speed
verification is being done with a strobe, fan speed should be verified in all
unit operation modes.
Units with SystemVuTM Controls
On units equipped with the factory-installed SystemVu controller the Fan Speed
settings are accessed through the SystemVu interface.
1. Check the job specifications for the CFM (cubic feet per minute) and ESP
(external static pressure) required.
2. Using the chart on the Fan Speed Set Up labels (see Fig. 7), calculate the
RPM from the CFM and ESP for the base unit.
3. If installing any accessories listed at the bottom of the Set Up Label,
add accessory RPM to base unit RPM in upper portion of the label.
NOTE: The Fan Speed Set Up labels are located on the High Voltage cover in the
Control Box. 4. Press any key on the SystemVu interface to activate the
display backlight and then press the MENU key. 5. Using the UP and DOWN arrow
keys highlight SETTINGS and then press ENTER. 6. Use the DOWN arrow key
highlight the UNIT CONFIGURATIONS menu then press ENTER. 7. Highlight UNIT
CONFIGURATIONS then press ENTER. 8. Highlight INDOOR FAN and then press ENTER.
9. Refer to the job specifications to set the following, determining the

TROUBLESHOOTING THE ECM MOTOR
EcoBlueTM 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 resume operation automatically as
soon as the fault condition is cleared. See Table 1 for a complete list.
Table 1 — Fault Condition/Reset Trigger

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 Model Number Nomenclature in
Appendix A to identify the materials provided in this unit). The coil may be
one-row or composite-type two-row. Composite two-row coils are two single-row
coils fabricated with a single return bend end tubesheet.
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 Totaline® 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 Totaline 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
Totaline 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.

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.
Totaline 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.

THERMOSTATIC EXPANSION VALVE (TXV)
All 48JC(G/H) units include a factory-installed, non-adjustable thermostatic
expansion valve (TXV) control. The TXV is a biflow, bleed port expansion valve
with an external equalizer. The TXVs are specifically designed to operate with
Puron® 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 two 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 two-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 ± 1.10 Nm) of torque; do not over-tighten.

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. Indoor-air 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
polyolester (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 polyolester (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.
On 3-phase units with 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 pres-
sure 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 two of the three 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 con-
denser-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 48JC(G/H) 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).

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 two 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 two
screws until snug (do not over-tighten).
4. Mount the weatherproof cover to the backing plate as shown in Fig. 28.
5. Remove two 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 nonfused 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).

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 loading 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 Fusetron1 T-15, non-renewable screw-in (Edison
base) type plug fuse.
USING UNIT-MOUNTED CONVENIENCE OUTLETS
Units with unit-mounted convenience outlet circuits will often require that
two 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.
SMOKE DETECTORS
Smoke detectors are available as factory-installed options on 48JC(G/H)
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 four-wire controller and one or two
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. 30) includes a controller housing, a printed circuit
board, and a clear plastic cover. The controller can be connected to one or
two 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 three 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. 31) 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 four 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 four LEDs (for Power, Trouble,
Alarm and Dirty) and a manual test/reset button (on the left-side of the
housing).

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 two 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 two 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 two sensors, the duct smoke detector does not
differentiate which sensor signals an alarm or trouble condition.

SENSOR AND CONTROLLER TESTS
Sensor Alarm Test
The sensor alarm test checks a sensor’s ability to signal an alarm state. This
test requires use of a field provided SD-MAG test magnet.
IMPORTANT: Failure to follow this ALERT can result in an unnecessary
evacuation of the facility. This test places the duct detector into the alarm
state. Unless part of the test, disconnect all auxiliary equipment from the
controller before performing the test. If the duct detector is connected to a
fire alarm system, notify the proper authorities before performing the test.
SENSOR ALARM TEST PROCEDURE
1. Hold the test magnet where indicated on the side of the sensor housing for
seven seconds.
2. Verify that the sensor’s Alarm LED turns on. 3. Reset the sensor by
holding the test magnet against the
sensor housing for two seconds. 4. Verify that the sensor’s Alarm LED turns
off.
Controller Alarm Test
The controller alarm test checks the controller’s ability to initiate and
indicate an alarm state. Controller Alarm Test Procedure 1. Press the
controller’s test/reset switch for seven seconds. 2. Verify that the
controller’s Alarm LED turns on. 3. Reset the sensor by pressing the
test/reset switch for two
seconds. 4. Verify that the controller’s Alarm LED turns off.
IMPORTANT: Failure to follow this ALERT can result in an unnecessary
evacuation of the facility. This test places the duct detector into the alarm
state. Unless part of the test, disconnect all auxiliary equipment from the
controller before performing the test. If the duct detector is connected to a
fire alarm system, notify the proper authorities before performing the test.
Dirty Controller Test
The dirty controller test checks the controller’s ability to initiate a dirty
sensor test and indicate its results.
IMPORTANT: Failure to follow this ALERT can result in an unnecessary
evacuation of the facility. Pressing the controller’s test/reset switch for
longer than seven seconds will put the duct detector into the alarm state and
activate all automatic alarm responses.
DIRTY CONTROLLER TEST PROCEDURE
1. Press the controller’s test/reset switch for two seconds. 2. Verify that
the controller’s Trouble LED flashes.
Dirty Sensor Test
The dirty sensor test provides an indication of the sensor’s ability to
compensate for gradual environmental changes. A sensor that can no longer
compensate for environmental changes is considered 100% dirty and requires
cleaning or replacing. A field provided SD-MAG test magnet must be used to
initiate a sensor dirty test. The sensor’s Dirty LED indicates the results of
the dirty test as shown in Table 3.
IMPORTANT: Failure to follow this ALERT can result in an unnecessary evacuation of the facility. Holding the test magnet against the sensor housing for more than seven seconds will put the duct detector into the alarm state and activate all automatic alarm responses.

DESCRIPTION 0-25% dirty. (Typical of a newly installed detector)
25-50% dirty 51-75% dirty 76-99% dirty
DIRTY SENSOR TEST PROCEDURE
1. Hold the test magnet where indicated on the side of the sensor housing for
two seconds.
2. Verify that the sensor’s Dirty LED flashes.
IMPORTANT: Failure to follow this ALERT can result in an unnecessary
evacuation of the facility. Changing the dirty sensor test operation will put
the detector into the alarm state and activate all automatic alarm responses.
Before changing dirty sensor test operation, disconnect all auxiliary
equipment from the controller and notify the proper authorities if connected
to a fire alarm system.
Changing the Dirt Sensor Test
By default, sensor dirty test results are indicated by:
· The sensor’s Dirty LED flashing.
· The controller’s Trouble LED flashing.
· The controller’s supervision relay contacts toggle.
The operation of a sensor’s dirty test can be changed so that the controller’s
supervision relay is not used to indicate test results. When two detectors are
connected to a controller, sensor dirty test operation on both sensors must be
configured to operate in the same manner.
TO CONFIGURE THE DIRTY SENSOR TEST OPERATION
1. Hold the test magnet where indicated on the side of the sensor housing
until the sensor’s Alarm LED turns on and its Dirty LED flashes twice
(approximately 60 seconds).
2. Reset the sensor by removing the test magnet then holding it against the
sensor housing again until the sensor’s Alarm LED turns off (approximately 2
seconds).
Remote Station Test
The remote station alarm test checks a test/reset station’s ability to
initiate and indicate an alarm state.
IMPORTANT: Failure to follow this ALERT can result in an unnecessary evacuation of the facility. This test places the duct detector into the alarm state. Unless part of the test, disconnect all auxiliary equipment from the controller before performing the test. If the duct detector is connected to a fire alarm system, notify the proper authorities before performing the test.

The SuperDuctTM 1 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. 40).
· 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.

GAS HEATING SYSTEM
General
The heat exchanger system consists of a gas valve feeding multiple in-shot
burners off a manifold. The burners fire into matching primary tubes. The
primary tubes discharge into combustion plenum where gas flow converges into
secondary tubes. The secondary tubes exit into the induced draft fan wheel
inlet. The induced fan wheel discharges into a flue passage and flue gases
exit out a flue hood on the side of the unit. The induced draft fan motor
includes a flue gas pressure switch circuit that confirms adequate wheel speed
through the Integrated Gas Control (IGC) board. Safety switches include a
Rollout Switch (at the top of the burner compartment; see Fig. 41) and a limit
switch (mounted through the heat exchanger cover panel, over the tubes) (see
Fig. 42).

SYSTEMVU CONTROL SYSTEM
The SystemVuTM 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 BACnet1 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 six buttons are required to maneuver through the entire controls menu.
The display readout is designed to be visible even in bright sunlight (see
Fig. 51).
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.
1. Third-party trademarks and logos are the property of their respective
owners.
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. 52 for location of these
sensors.

COMPRESSOR VFD
The 48JC 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
packaged into its own housing to appear as a single component, it is comprised
of five electronic components mounted in the unit’s control box for the
Control box layout (see Fig. 53). The five 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 three-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 startup 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 SystemVuTM Controls Version X.X Controls,
Startup, 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. 54 and Table
10 on page 35 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’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 four rotary switches mounted on the board. The
required settings are listed below and printed on the unit schematics. See
Fig. 55, Table 11, and Table 12 on page 36 for more details on the converter
board.
The converter board has a four-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 (see Table 14) 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 13 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. 57 and Table 16
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 three-phase
line reactor so there is a filter for each line of the three-phase power.
There are two 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.

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-mechanical 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.
Gas Piping
Check gas piping for leaks.
WARNING
FIRE, EXPLOSION HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in death, serious personal injury
and/or property damage.
Disconnect gas piping from unit when pressure testing at pressure greater than
0.5 psig (3450 Pa). Pressures greater than 0.5 psig will cause gas valve
damage resulting in hazardous condition. If gas valve is subjected to pressure
greater than 0.5 psig, it must be replaced before use. When pressure testing
field-supplied gas piping at pressures of 0.5 psig or less, a unit connected
to such piping must be isolated by closing the manual gas valve(s).

Return-Air Filters
Ensure correct filters are installed in unit (see Appendix B — Physical Data).
Do not operate unit without return-air 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 compressor 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 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.
On 3-phase units with 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 two 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.
Cooling
Set space thermostat to OFF position. To start unit, turn on main power
supply. Set system selector switch at COOL position and fan switch at AUTO.
position. Adjust thermostat to a setting below room temperature. Compressor
starts on closure of contactor.
Check unit charge. Refer to Refrigerant Charge section on page 12.
Reset thermostat at a position above room temperature. Compressor will shut
off. Evaporator fan will shut off after a 30second delay.
To shut off unit, set system selector switch at OFF position. Resetting
thermostat at a position above room temperature shuts unit off temporarily
until space temperature exceeds thermostat setting.
Main Burner
Main burners are factory set and should require no adjustment.
To check ignition of main burners and heating controls, move thermostat
setpoint above room temperature and verify that the burners light and
evaporator fan is energized. Check heating effect, then lower the thermostat
setting below the room temperature and verify that the burners and evaporator
fan turn off.
When replacing unit orifices, order the necessary parts through RCD.

Heating
1. Purge gas supply line of air by opening union ahead of the gas valve. If
gas odor is detected, tighten union and wait 5 minutes before proceeding.
2. Turn on electrical supply and manual gas valve. 3. Set system switch
selector at HEAT position and fan
switch at AUTO. or ON position. Set heating temperature lever above room
temperature. 4. The induced-draft motor will start. 5. After a call for
heating, the main burners should light within 5 seconds. If the burner does
not light, then there is a 22-second delay before another 5-second try. If the
burner still does not light, the time delay is repeated. If the burner does
not light within 15 minutes, there is a lockout. To reset the control, break
the 24 v power to W1. 6.
