2. Apply Bulb Gasket The bulb gasket material creates an airtight seal between adjacent modules after connection. The adhesive backing is initially low tack so the gasket can be easily repositioned during installation. The adhesive backing will cure to full bond strength after 72 hours and will then no longer be easily removable. Apply bulb gasket to one side of the opening between adjacent modules Figure 11 - Gasket Application 3.
Remove bar clamps and repeat for all remaining module joints. 1” Figure 13 - Bar Clamp You should now have a fully gasketed, airtight joint that needs to be permanently secured into position. 5/16” Hex Head Self-Tapping Screws Provided with Unit Figure 14 - Self-Tapping Screw 4. Secure Module Joints The metal straps are to be used to secure module joints in order to maintain the airtight seal. Straps are provided with predrilled holes and adhesive backing already affixed.
6. Final Sealing Put straps in position, hold in place and attach with self-tapping sheet metal screws. It is very important to keep air from infiltrating the unit cabinet. Seal all piping penetrations with Armaflex, Permagum or other suitable sealant. Also seal around drain connections, electrical connections and all other inlets where air may enter the cabinet. This is especially important when the unit is installed in an unconditioned area.
CAUTION This section is for information only and is not intended to provide all details required by the designer or installer of the refrigerant piping between the condenser or condensing unit and the air handling unit. AAON is not responsible for interconnecting refrigerant piping. Consult ASHRAE Handbook – Refrigeration and ASME Standards. Only clean ACR tubing should be used. Piping should conform to generally accepted practices and codes. The air handling unit coils are pressurized.
Minimizing the refrigerant line size is favorable from an economic perspective, reducing installation costs, and reducing the potential for leakage. However, as pipe diameters narrow, pressure-reducing frictional forces increase. Excessive suction line pressure drop causes loss of compressor capacity and increased power usage resulting in reduced system efficiency.
may provide additional sub-cooling to the refrigerant. When routing the liquid line through high temperature areas, insulation of the line is appropriate to avoid loss of subcooling through heat gain. Liquid Line Guidelines In order to ensure liquid at the TXV, frictional losses must not exceed available sub-cooling. A commonly used guideline to consider is a system design with pressure losses due to friction through the line not to exceed a corresponding 1-2°F change in saturation temperature.
risers. The smaller diameter pipe should be sized to return oil at minimum load, while the larger diameter pipe should be sized so that flow through both pipes provides acceptable pressure drop at full load. Suction Line Insulation The entire suction line should be insulated. This prevents condensation from forming on the line, and reduces any potential loss in capacity associated with heat gain.
Insulate the entire length of the HGB line with a minimum 1 inch thick Armaflex insulation. Hot Gas Bypass Piping Considerations for Evaporator below Condensing Unit The line must slope downward from the HGB valve toward the evaporator. Hot Gas Bypass Line Guidelines Choose a small size line to ensure oil return, and minimize refrigerant charge. Maintain velocities below a maximum of 4,000 fpm. A general minimum velocity guideline to use is approximately 1,000 fpm.
3. Disinfection the water loop with solutions containing sodium hypochlorite. Chlorides will result in a premature failure of the condenser. Failure of the condenser as a result of chemical corrosion is excluded from coverage under AAON warranties and the heat exchanger manufacturer warranties. Failure of the condenser will allow water to enter the refrigerant circuit and will cause extensive damage to the refrigerant circuit components.
need for head pressure control. If the EWT is expected to be lower than 50°F or more stable operation is desired, a field provided water regulating valve may be used. Glycol solution should be used if ambient temperatures are expected to fall below freezing or if the loop water temperature is below 50°F while operating in the heating mode (heat pump units only). Adding glycol to condenser water causes an increase in pressure drop resulting in a decrease in unit performance.
CAUTION WATER PIPING Follow national and local codes when installing water piping. Connections to the unit should incorporate vibration eliminators to reduce noise and vibration and shutoff valves to facilitate servicing. Supply and return water piping must be at least as large as the unit connections and larger depending on length of runs, rise and bends. CAUTION PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) and CPVC (Chlorinated Polyvinyl Chloride) are vulnerable to attack by certain chemicals.

A single point connection to a terminal block is provided. Split units may require connection between the units. High voltage conductors should enter the control panel in a separate opening and separate conduit than 24V low voltage conductors. WARNING The foam insulation releases dangerous fumes when it is burnt. Do not cut a foam part with a cutting torch or plasma cutter. Do not weld to a foam filled part. Note: Locations for field cut electrical entries are marked on the unit.
voltages from the average divided by the average voltage. Example: (221V+230V+227V)/3 = 226V, then 100*(226V-221V)/226V = 2.2%, which exceeds the allowable imbalance. Check voltage imbalance at the unit disconnect switch and at the compressor terminal. Contact your local power company for line voltage corrections. Installing contractor must check for proper motor rotation and check blower motor amperage listed on the motor nameplate is not exceeded.
All external devices must be powered via a separate external power supply. Note: The drain pan connection is a 1” MPT fitting. Example: A total of 8 wires must be pulled 75ft to a control the unit. What size wire should be used? According to the Table 2, 16 AWG allows for 63ft (500 ft/8 wires) and 14 AWG allows for 94ft (750 ft/8 wires). Thus, 14 AWG should be used. Condensate Drain Piping Unit may be equipped with more than one condensate drain pan connection.

Air Adjustment In the event that reduced air volume is required, an air volume band can be installed within the blower wheel to reduce the amount of air delivery. If the unit is factory equipped with the air band but additional air delivery is needed, the band can be removed from the wheel. The air band is sized according to the air delivery specifications and can be ordered from the factory for field installation.
Figure 20 - Supply Fan Banding Waterside Economizer Pre-cooling waterside economizer coil is supplied without water piping. A kit to pipe the coil in series with the condenser water circuit along with a valve which diverts condenser water to the coil or around the coil is optional. A p-trap must be installed on the coil drain outlet, not to exceed 6” from the drain connection. See the previous section on condensate drain piping for additional p-trap and drain information.
An aquastat is included with the field installed water piping kit and is used to modulate water flow through the economizer coil. The controller is mounted in the controls compartment. Electrical connections must be field wired. The temperature bulb requires field mounting. Care should be taken to firmly mount the bulb on the supply water piping, but not to dent the bulb when installing. The aquastat has a temperature calibration range adjustment of -10°F to 100°F and must be field set.

Air Balancing High performance systems commonly have complex air distribution and fan systems. Unqualified personnel should not attempt to adjust fan operation or air circulation, as all systems have unique operating characteristics. Professional air balance specialists should be employed to establish actual operating conditions and to configure the air delivery system for optimal performance. continued efficient and reliable operation for the owner.
Checking Liquid Sub-Cooling Measure the temperature of the liquid line as it leaves the condenser. Read the gauge pressure at the liquid line close to the point where the temperature was taken. Use liquid line pressure as it will vary from discharge pressure due to condenser pressure drop. Convert the pressure obtained to a saturated temperature using the appropriate refrigerant temperature-pressure chart.
temperature range as shown in the table above (high superheat results in increased sub-cooling). Correct an undercharged system by adding refrigerant to the system to reduce superheat and raise sub-cooling. Correct an overcharged system by reducing the amount of refrigerant in the system to lower the sub-cooling. If the sub-cooling is correct and the superheat is too high, the TXV may need adjustment to correct the superheat.

Indoor Coils Indoor cooling/evaporator coils must be cleaned regularly to maintain unit efficiency and operation. Dirty evaporator coils will eventually freeze up and often result in a time consuming and expensive service call. Clean filters will help to prevent dirt from accumulating on cooling coils, however cooling coils should be cleaned at least annually by an HVAC professional.
CAUTION Harsh chemicals, household bleach, or acid cleaners should not be used to clean outdoor or indoor e-coated coils. These cleaners can be very difficult to rinse out of the coil and can accelerate corrosion and attack the e-coating. If there is dirt below the surface of the coil, use the recommended coil cleaners. For routine quarterly cleaning, first clean the coil with the below approved coil cleaner.
To clean the wheel, remove the segments from the wheel frame, and brush foreign material from the face. Soak the segments in a non-acid based coil cleaner, or another alkaline detergent, and warm water. Massaging the matrix with your hands will increase the cleaning action. Rinse well, and shake excess water away before reinstalling. For applications where frequent cleaning is required, it is advisable to keep a second set of wheel segments on hand.
Electric Heating Set thermostat in the heat mode; call for heat to engage all electric heat strips. Check blower for proper rotation and voltage. Measure the amperage and voltage. Compare them to the nameplate data. If applicable, check remote heat pump condenser as per the manufacturer’s recommendations. Steam or Hot Water Heating Set thermostat in the heat mode. Observe supply blower for proper rotation and voltage. Check boiler or hot water operation according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
