HANDLING AND TESTING THE AIR CONDITIONER
position for a minimum of five (5) minutes before operating.
TEST FOR FUNCTIONALITY BEFORE MOUNTING THE AIR CONDITIONER TO THE ENCLOSURE.
Refer to the nameplate for proper electrical current requirements, and then
wire the unit to a properly grounded power supply using copper conductors
only. Power supply wiring should be restrained after field installation to
ensure no contact with internal fan. Minimum circuit ampacity should be at
least 125% of the amperage shown on the unit nameplate. No other equipment
should be connected to this circuit to prevent overloading Immediately after
applying power, the evaporator blower (enclosure air) should start running.
Operate the air conditioner with the compressor running for five (5) to ten
(10) minutes. You will need to set the cooling thermostat or controller
setpoint below the ambient temperature to operate the compressor. Condenser
air temperatures should be warmer than normal room temperatures within a few
minutes after the condenser impellers start. See Sequence of Operation on page
4 for specifics on how the unit operates when powered up.

TECHNICAL INFORMATION
GENERAL
Sensor 2 monitors the enclosure return air temperature to prevent ice buildup
on the evaporator coil. If the air temperature drops below -1 C, the
compressor and condenser air mover(s) shut off. They turn back on when the
temperature rises above 15 C.
The compressor and the air movers are equipped with overload protection to
guard against excess current and temperatures.
SEQUENCE OF OPERATION
The air conditioner comes standard with smart controller. During cooling modes, the evaporator fan will be running.
COOLING
When the enclosure temperature is above the cooling set-point plus the cooling
differential, the smart controller will call for cooling. The compressor is
then energized through a solid state relay or contactor. The condenser
impellers will start immediately if the unit is not equipped with an optional
head pressure control switch. If the unit is equipped with an optional head
pressure control switch, the condenser impellers will start once the
refrigerant pressure reaches the pressure setting of the switch. Component
specific information is listed below. Operating the air conditioner below the
minimum ambient temperature or above the maximum ambient temperatures
indicated on the nameplate voids all warranties. DO NOT adjust cooling set-
point to a temperature lower than 70 F. Doing so can increase the likelihood
of frost buildup on the evaporator coil.
The moisture that the enclosure air can contain is limited. If moisture flows
from the drain tube continuously this can only mean that ambient air is
entering the enclosure. Be aware that frequent opening of the enclosure’s door
admits humid air that the air conditioner must then dehumidify.
STANDARD AND OPTIONAL COMPONENT OPERATION
SMART CONTROLLER
The standard NHZ43 air conditioner uses our standard smart controller. The setpoint equals the temperature that the air conditioner turns off. The controller has a 7 F differential from setpoint until it calls for cooling. An example of operation is shown below.
FOR COOLING (75-100 F RANGE)
- Thermostat setpoint = 80 F
- Cooling turns on at 87 F
- Cooling turns off at 80 F
REMOTE ACCESS CONTROL (OPTIONAL)
See Remote Access Control on page 17
HEAD PRESSURE CONTROL (OPTIONAL)
Unit is set at the factory, no adjustment necessary.At a saturated condenser temperature of 85 F (95 psig), the condenser fans will power off. At a saturated condenser temperature of 117 F (165 psig), the condenser fans will power on.
DOOR SWITCH
Several door switches may be connected in series and operated on one cooling
unit. The door switch only supports a floating connection,no external
voltages. Remove jumper from terminals 3 and 4 of the connector and connect
the door switch to the two terminals if a door switch is available.
ACTIVE CONDENSATE MANAGEMENT
At low temperatures and high humidity levels inside the enclosure,
condensation may form on the evaporator coil.
The air conditioner will continuously evaporate the water that may be in the
drain pan due to condensation from the evaporator coil into the external air
stream. Excess condensate is routed downwards out of the air conditioner via a
tube fitting at the bottom of the condenser side of the unit. A 10 mm inside
diameter tube can be attached to the fitting and routed to a nearby drain.
WHEN USED WITH PURGE AND PRESSURIZED ENCLOSURES
This air conditioner will operate safely in a Class 1 Division 2 Groups A, B,
C and D hazardous location on both exterior and interior sides. It does not
require a purge and pressurized enclosure, but if it is to be installed on
one, the following should be considered.
The active condensate management system functionally described above is
possible due to a drain trap directly connecting and routing condensation from
the evaporator coil pan to the ambient side where it collects in the
condensate evaporator pan. During initial purging of an enclosure or after
long periods of operation in a pressurized system utilizing a dry protective
and/or inert gas supply, the drain trap can eventually dry out and allow a
small amount of protective gas to leak outward of the enclosure through the
drain trap. A leakage should not immediately be associated with a hazardous
condition. If continuous positive pressure is maintained inside an enclosure,
the protective gas will leak out to ambient and prevent hazardous gasses from
entering. A typical enclosure pressurization system can compensate for this
and maintain proper enclosure pressure.
If the pressurization system cannot compensate for the additional leakage, a
drain trap seal can be created by priming the air conditioner drain. This can
be done by de-energizing and opening the enclosure for access to the
evaporator coil, and carefully pouring clean water (approx. 1 cup) into the
face of the coil. With water present, the drain trap should be fully primed
and sealed. Opening the enclosure can also introduce humidity back into the
enclosure which will eventually condense on the evaporator coil and become
part of the seal in the drain trap

GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION
- Assembling, installing and servicing must only be performed by properly trained specialists.
- When transporting the enclosure with the cooling unit externally mounted, always use an additional shipping brace to support the cooling unit.
- Do not attempt to operate the air conditioner while it is horizontal or on its side, back or front.
- Operation of air conditioner in areas containing airborne caustics or chemicals can rapidly degrade sealing properties of materials, deteriorate filters, refrigeration coils, blowers and motors. Contact nVent Equipment Protection for special recommendations. See Maintenance on page 21.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
- Refer to nameplate for hazardous location rating.
- Install a suitable switch to de-energize the air conditioner for repairs or remove the fuse.
- Inspect the air conditioner and verify correct functionality before mounting the air conditioner. See Handling and Testing the Air Conditioner on page 4.
- Using the mounting gasket kit provided with the unit, install gaskets to the air conditioner.
- When considering a location for the unit, it is recommended that a six (6) inch clearance be maintained on at least one side of the air conditioner. It is also recommended that twenty (20) inches of clearance be allowed from the front of the unit for cover removal.
- Figure 1 and the cutout template included with the unit will assist in preparing the enclosure for installation of the unit. NOTE: Mount the unit within 3° from vertical.
- Mount air conditioner on enclosure taking care not to damage the mounting gasket. The mounting gasket is the seal between the air conditioner and the enclosure. Avoid dragging the air conditioner on the enclosure with the mounting gasket attached as this could cause rips or tears in the gasket and risk losing the water tight seal.
- To avoid cross-threading mounting inserts, start bolts by hand before tightening with a wrench or ratchet driver. Allow unit to remain upright for a minimum of five (5) minutes before starting. CAUTION! Air conditioner must be in upright position during operation.
- Refer to the nameplate for electrical requirements. Wire the unit to a properly grounded power supply. Electrical circuit should be fused with slow blow or HACR circuit breaker.
- Adjust the controller to the desired cabinet temperature. Refer to Displaying and Changing Program Variables on page 15 for controller adjustments and operation.

controller display. The display will revert to displaying temperature sensor
number 1 (the AC inlet temperature) after 60 seconds. Both sensors can also be
read through the Ethernet and USB connections.
COMPRESSOR RESTART TIME DELAY
A factory set 6 minute (360 second) restart delay exists to reduce residual
back pressure before allowing the compressor to restart. The compressor will
stay off for the entire restart duration after the compressor is disabled. A
flashing one (1) on the controller display will indicate the unit is in a
compressor restart delay while calling for cooling. If the time delay is
reduced to less than five (5) minutes, this may cause reduced compressor life.
ALARM OUTPUT CONTACT

GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION
Please observe the following general safety instructions when assembling and operating the unit:
- Assembling, installing and servicing must only be performed by properly trained specialists.
- When transporting the enclosure with the cooling unit externally mounted, always use an additional shipping brace to support the cooling unit.
- Do not attempt to operate the air conditioner while it is horizontal or on its side, back or front.
- Factory-supplied replacement parts must be used.
- Repaired/replaced components must be located and wired in the identical location as the original components.
- Hazardous Location rating may be compromised if the above are not followed.
- Operation of air conditioner in areas containing airborne caustics or chemicals can rapidly degrade sealing properties of materials, deteriorate filters, refrigeration coils, blowers and motors. Contact nVent Equipment Protection for special recommendations.
DANGER
Danger: explosion hazard – do not energize, disconnect, or troubleshoot
equipment unless power has been switched off or the area is known to be non-
hazardous.
Unit to be installed and maintained by properly trained personnel only.Danger:
Risque d’explosion – Ne pas alimenter, déconnecter ni dépanner l’équipement si
l’alimentation n’a pas été coupée ou si la zone n’est pas reconnue comme non
dangereuse.
MAINTENANCE
COMPRESSOR
The compressor requires no maintenance. It is hermetically sealed, properly
lubricated at the factory and should provide years of satisfactory operating
service.
Under no circumstances should the access fitting covers be loosened, removed
or tampered with.
Breaking of seals on compressor access fittings during warranty period will
void warranty on hermetic system.
Recharging ports are provided for the ease and convenience of reputable
refrigeration repair service personnel for recharging the air conditioner.
INLET AIR FILTER
applications. The air conditioner is shipped with a filter in place for your
convenience. For filterless operation, simply remove the filter. Should you
decide the filter is necessary in your application, regular maintenance to
clean this filter will assure normal operation of the air conditioner. The
easily removable inlet air filter is located behind the inlet of the front
cover. If necessary filter maintenance is delayed or ignored, the maximum
ambient temperatures under which the unit is designed to operate will be
decreased.
If the compressor’s operating temperature increases above designed conditions
due to a dirty or clogged filter (or plugged condenser coil), the air
conditioner’s compressor will stop operating due to actuation of the thermal
overload cut-out switch located on the compressor housing. As soon as the
compressor temperature has dropped to within the switch’s cut-in setting, the
compressor will restart automatically. However the above condition will
continue to take place until the filter or coil has been cleaned. It is
recommended that power to the air conditioner be interrupted intentionally
when abnormally high compressor operating temperature causes automatic shut-
down of the unit. The above described shut-down is symptomatic of a clogged or
dirty filter, thus causing a reduction in cooling air flow across the surface
of the compressor and condenser coil.
HOW TO REMOVE, CLEAN OR INSTALL A NEW INLET AIR FILTER
RP aluminum washable air filters are designed to provide excellent filtering
efficiency with a high dust holding capacity and a minimum amount of
resistance to air flow. Because they are constructed entirely of aluminum they
are lightweight and easy to service. To achieve maximum performance from your
air handling equipment, air filters should be cleaned on a regular basis.The
inlet air filter is located behind the condenser air inlet grille. To access
the filter, simply slide it out. The filter may now be cleaned or a new filter
installed.
Cleaning Instructions
- Flush the filter with warm water from the exhaust side to the intake side. DO NOT USE CAUSTICS.
- After flushing, allow filter to drain. Placing it with a corner down will assure complete drainage.
CONDENSATE MANAGEMENT AND DRAIN TRAP MAINTENANCE
The drain trap can be cleaned by pouring soapy water into the face of the evaporator coil. An alternate method is to remove the panel underneath the condenser coil, locate the drain trap above the condensate evaporator pan, and blow compressed air through the tube.
CONDENSER AND EVAPORATOR AIR MOVERS
Impeller motors require no maintenance. All bearings, shafts, etc. are
lubricated during manufacturing for the life of the motor.
If the condenser impeller motors (ambient impellers) should fail, it is not
necessary to remove the air conditioner from the cabinet or enclosure to
replace the blower. The condenser impeller is mounted on its own bracket and
is easily accessible by removing the front cover.
If the evaporator impeller motor should fail, it may require dismounting the
unit from the enclosure because access to the evaporator is through the
enclosure side. After it is repaired, refer to Installation Instructions on
page 12 for mounting the unit back onto the enclosure. Replace the mounting
gasket if damaged
REFRIGERANT LOSS
Each air conditioner is thoroughly tested prior to leaving the factory to
insure against refrigeration leaks. Shipping damage or microscopic leaks not
found with sensitive electronic refrigerant leak detection equipment during
manufacture may require repair or recharging of the system. This work should
only be performed by qualified professionals, generally available through a
local, reputable air conditioning repair or service company.Should the
refrigerant charge be lost, access ports on the suction and discharge sides of
the compressor are provided for recharging and/or checking suction and
discharge pressures.Refer to the data on the nameplate which specifies the
type of refrigerant and the charge size in ounces.Before recharging, make sure
there are no leaks and that the system has been properly evacuated into a deep

TROUBLE SHOOTING
BASIC AIR CONDITIONING TROUBLE SHOOTING CHECK LIST – SMART CONTROLLER
Check manufacturer’s nameplate located on the unit for correct power supply.
Turn on power to the unit. The controller will display a start up sequence then revert to the normal temperature display mode. Is the correct enclosure temperature displayed?
Note: The temperature may be alternating with an alarm code.
YES, proceed to step 3.|
---|---
NO, possible problem:|
» Open controller fuse
» Controller in alarm condition. See Alarm Condition Display on page 16.
» Defective controller
» Defective thermistor – check by blowing warm air across the thermistor. If display temperature rises, thermistor is operable.
| ****
Replace part
The cooling status indication (symbol G) should be on. Is the symbol on? If not, press and hold the lower right “snowflake” button for greater than five seconds. Is the cooling mode symbol now on?
YES, proceed to step 4.
NO, possible problem:
» Defective controller
Replace **part**
The evaporator (Enclosure or “COLD” air) fan/impeller should turn on. Is there airflow?
YES, proceed to step 5.|
---|---
NO, possible problem:|
» Controller in alarm condition. See Alarm Condition Display on page 16.
» Open motor winding
» Stuck fan/impeller
» Obstructed blades/wheel
» Defective motor capacitor
|
Repair or Replace defective part
Start the cooling cycle by changing the cooling setpoint parameter (r01) to the low limit of 72 F (22 C). Symbol 1 should be displayed indicating a call for cooling. If symbol 1 is flashing, the unit is in Restart Time Delay mode. Within 6 minutes, symbol 1 should display without flashing. Is symbol 1 displayed without flashing?
YES, proceed to step 8.|
---|---
NO, possible problem:|
» Unit still in Recycle Time Delay mode
» Enclosure temperature below cooling setpoint temperature
|
Wait and/or heat enclosure thermistor T1
The compressor and the condenser (Ambient or “HOT” air) impeller(s) should turn on. Is there adequate airflow?
YES, proceed to step 7.
NO, possible problem:
» Open motor winding(s)
» Stuck impeller(s) Repair or Replace
» Obstructed wheel(s) defective part
» Defective motor capacitor(s)
Carefully check the compressor for proper operation – motor should cause slight vibration and the outer case of the compressor should be warm. Is the compressor showing signs of this?
YES, wait 5 minutes, proceed to step 8.|
---|---
NO, possible problem:|
» Defective start or run capacitor
» Defective overload
» Defective start relay
» Defective contactor
» Defective compressor
» Tripped overload relay
|
Reset, Repair or Replace defective part
Make sure the coils are clean then check the evaporator “air in” and “air out” temperatures. If the temperatures are the same:
» Possible loss of refrigerant Repair or Replace
» Possible bad valves in compressor defective part
