Requirements For Long Line Sets

1. A crankcase heater must be installed on any compressor (if crankcase heater is not already factory installed)

2. Hard start assist kit is required.

3. Use of a thermostatic expansion valve (TXV) is required in all long line set applications. Unit must be charged to 6º ± 1ºF subcooling at the indoor unit.

4. Heat Pump Application Only. Liquid line solenoid must be installed less than 2 feet from the outdoor unit.

Lists the equivalent length gained from adding bends to the suction line.

Properly size the suction line to minimize capacity loss.

Losses From Suction Line Elbows (Equivalent Length, Ft.)

L = Length of trap must be more than Indoor Unit Height (H)

1. The maximum elevation (vertical) between the outdoor unit and the indoor unit is 80 feet. 2. Suction line must be installed to prevent liquid migration to outdoor unit from indoor unit. 3. An inverted trap is installed on the suction line before the inlet of indoor unit. The top of the inverted loop must be above the top of the indoor unit coil. Support and secure the loop. 4. An accumulator is required to be added (external to the outdoor unit, within 2 feet of the unit) for air conditioning installations. Do NOT install an accumulator in the suction line set in heat pump applications.

Outdoor Unit Is Below Indoor Unit

Inverted Loop – Oil Traps

Page 7: LONG LINE SET APPLICATION R-410A · 2.03.2017  · Heat Pump Application Only. Liquid line solenoid must ... Unitary Control Overview (UC) #1 - Contactor Replaced By Sealed Switch

An oil trap at the indoor unit is required if the elevation difference exceeds 80‘ feet. The trap can be constructed of standard refrigerant fitting

1. Suction line must be sloped continuously towards the indoor unit. 2. The maximum elevation (vertical) difference between the outdoor unit and indoor unit is: a. not restricted in this configuration (must adhere to maximum equivalent length). b. 80 feet for single stage heat pump units. c. 25 feet for two stage units. 3. Inverted suction loop is not required at either unit. 4. An accumulator is not required for air conditioners (accumulators are factory installed on heat pumps).

Definition: Protective Lockouts That Prevent Compressor Operation When Damage Could Occur

Controls & Protects

1. Low Pressure: 3 trips in one Y call = lockout

2. High Pressure: 3 trips in one Y call = lockout

3. Locked Rotor: 4 runs attempted each lasting < 15 seconds and tripping the protector = lockout

4. Open Start Circuit: When sensed by Comfort Alert 4 retries are attempted at 5 minute intervals before lockout. One normal run before lockout clears fault.

5. Open Run Circuit: Same response as #4.

Lockouts can be cleared by cycling 24V to the UC

control, or pressing the “TEST” button

1. Disconnect high voltage electrical supply. Remove control panel cover

from unit.

2. Turn on line voltage. Using a volt meter measure the voltage across the

terminals L1 and L2 of the contactor of the unit.

3. No reading – indicates open wiring , open fuses or no power. Repair as

needed.

4. With ample voltage at line voltage connectors (220 volts + or – 10%),

energize the unit.

5. Measure the voltage with the unit starting and operating. Determine the

LOCKED ROTOR VOLTAGE.

6. Should voltage fall below the minimum voltage . Check the line wire size.

Long runs of wire can cause low voltage. If wire size is adequate, notify

power company of high or low voltage.

Checking Voltage

Page 47: LONG LINE SET APPLICATION R-410A · 2.03.2017  · Heat Pump Application Only. Liquid line solenoid must ... Unitary Control Overview (UC) #1 - Contactor Replaced By Sealed Switch

Is the actual voltage available at the compressor during starting, locked

rotor, or a stalled condition.

To measure Locked Rotor Voltage attach a voltmeter to the run “R” and

common “C” terminals or to the “T1” and “T2” terminals on the contactor.

Start the unit and allow the compressor to run several seconds, then shut

the unit down. Immediately attempt to restart the unit while measuring the

Locked Rotor Voltage.

Should voltage fall below the minimum voltage . Check the line wire size. Long runs of wire can cause low voltage. If wire size is adequate, notify power company of high or low voltage

1. Check wiring visually for signs of overheating,

damaged insulations and loose connections.

2. Use an ohmmeter to check continuity of any

suspected open wires.

3. If any wires must be replaced , replace with

comparable gauge and insulation thickness.

Check Wiring

Disconnect electrical power supply:

1. Remove control panel cover on furnace or air handler. To gain access

to the transformer.

2. Turn power ON: Line voltage is now present.

3. Using a voltmeter, check voltage across secondary voltage side of

transformer(R to C).

4. No Voltage indicates faulty transformer, bad wiring,or bad splices.

5. Check transformer primary voltage at incoming line voltage

connections.

6. If line voltage available at primary voltage side of transformer wiring is

good , transformer is inoperative . Replace .
