STORAGE — If the equipment is not needed immediately at
the jobsite, it should be left in its shipping carton and stored in a
clean, dry area of the building or in a warehouse. Units must be
stored in an upright position at all times. If carton stacking is
necessary, stack units a maximum of 3 high. Do not remove
any equipment from its shipping package until it is needed for
installation.
PROTECTION — Once the units are properly positioned on
the jobsite, cover them with either a shipping carton, vinyl film,
or an equivalent protective covering. Cap open ends of pipes
stored on the jobsite. This precaution is especially important in
areas where painting, plastering, or spraying of fireproof mate-
rial, etc. is not yet complete. Foreign material that accumulates
within the units can prevent proper start-up and necessitate
costly clean-up operations.
Before installing any of the system components, be sure to
examine each pipe, fitting, and valve, and remove any dirt or
foreign material found in or on these components.
INSPECT UNIT — To prepare the unit for installation, com-
plete the procedures listed below:
1. Compare the electrical data on the unit nameplate with
ordering and shipping information to verify that the
correct unit has been shipped.
2. Verify that the unit is the correct model for the entering
water temperature of the job.
3. Do not remove the packaging until the unit is ready for
installation.
4. Verify that the refrigerant tubing is free of kinks or dents,
and that it does not touch other unit components.
5. Inspect all electrical connections. Be sure connections are
clean and tight at the terminals.
6. Compressors are internally isolated. Compressors
equipped with external spring vibration isolators must
have bolts loosened and shipping clamps removed.
7. Remove any blower support cardboard from inlet of the
blower.
8. Locate and verify any accessory kit located in compressor
section.
9. Remove any access panel screws that may be difficult to
remove once unit is installed.
Step 3 — Unit Location —
The following guidelines
should be considered when choosing a location for WSHP:
• Units are for indoor use only
• Locate in areas where ambient temperatures are between
40 F and 100 F and relative humidity is no greater than
75%
• Provide sufficient space for water, electrical and duct
connections
• Locate unit in an area that allows easy access and
removal of filter and access panels
• Allow enough space for service personnel to perform
maintenance
• Return air must be able to freely enter the space if unit
needs to be installed in a confined area such as a closet
NOTE: Correct placement of the horizontal unit can play an
important part in minimizing sound problems. Since duct-
work is normally applied to these units, the unit can be
placed so that the principal sound emission is outside the oc-
cupied space in sound-critical applications. A fire damper
may be required by the local code if a fire wall is penetrated.
FIELD CONVERSION OF DISCHARGE AIR — The dis-
charge air of the 50RHC,RHR,RHS horizontal units can be
converted between side and back discharge in the field. The
conversion process is the same for right and left return configu-
rations. See Fig. 11 and 12.
NOTE: It is not possible to convert return air between left or
right return models in the field due to refrigerant piping
changes.
Preparation
— The unit should be on the ground in a well lit
area for conversion. Hung units should be taken down to
ground level before converting.
Side to Back Discharge Conversion
1. Remove screws to free the top and discharge panels. See
Fig. 11.
2. Remove the access panel and set aside.
3. Lift the discharge panel from side of unit and rotate it to
back using care not to damage blower wiring.
4. Check blower wire routing and connections for undo
tension or contact with sheet metal edges. Re-route if
necessary.
5. Check refrigerant tubing for contact with other compo-
nents. Adjust if necessary.
6. Reinstall top panel using screws set aside in Step 1.
NOTE: Location for some screws at bottom of discharge panel
may have to be changed.
7. Manually spin fan wheel to check for obstructions.
Adjust for any obstruction found.
8. Replace access panel.
Back to Side Discharge Conversion
— Follow instructions
above for Side to Back Discharge Conversion, noting the
panels would be reversed.
DO NOT store or install units in corrosive environments or
in locations subject to temperature or humidity extremes
(e.g., attics, garages, rooftops, etc.). Corrosive conditions
and high temperature or humidity can significantly reduce
performance, reliability, and service life. Always move
units in an upright position. Tilting units on their sides may
cause equipment damage.
