IMPORTANT: If the unit is equipped with the optional EconoMi$erIV component, move the outdoor-air tempera- ture sensor prior to installing the outdoor-air hood. See the Optional EconoMi$erIV section for more information.

NOTE: The hood top panel, upper and lower filter retainers, hood drain pan, baffle (size 300), and filter support bracket are secured opposite the condenser end of the unit. The screens, hood side panels, remaining section of filter support bracket, seal strip, and hardware are in a package located inside the return-air filter access panel (Fig. 19).

1.Attach seal strip to upper filter retainer. See Fig. 20.

2.Assemble hood top panel, side panels, upper filter retainer, and drain pan (see Fig. 21).

3.Secure lower filter retainer and support bracket to unit. See Fig. 21. Leave screws loose on size 300 units.

4.Slide baffle (size 300) behind lower filter retainer and tighten screws.

5.Loosen sheet metal screws for top panel of base unit located above outdoor-air inlet opening, and remove screws for hood side panels located on the sides of the outdoor-air inlet opening.

6.Match notches in hood top panel to unit top panel screws. Insert hood flange between top panel flange and unit. Tighten screws.

7.Hold hood side panel flanges flat against unit, and install screws removed in Step 5.

8.Insert outdoor-air inlet screens and spacer in channel created by lower filter retainer and filter support bracket.

9.Attach remaining section of filter support bracket.

XII. STEP 12 — INSTALL ALL ACCESSORIES

After all the factory-installed options have been adjusted, install all field-installed accessories. Refer to the accessory installation instructions included with each accessory.

A. Motormaster® I Control (–20 F) Installation (580F180 and 210 Only)

Install Field-Fabricated Wind Baffles

Wind baffles must be field-fabricated for all units to ensure proper cooling cycle operation at low ambient temperatures. See Fig. 22 for baffle details. Use 20-gage, galvanized sheet metal, or similar corrosion-resistant metal for baffles. Use field-supplied screws to attach baffles to unit. Screws should be 1/4-in. diameter and 5/8-in. long. Drill required screw holes for mounting baffles.

CAUTION: To avoid damage to the refrigerant coils and electrical components, use recommended screw sizes only. Use care when drilling holes.

Install Motormaster I Controls

One Motormaster I control is required on size 180 and 210 units. The Motormaster I control must be used in conjunction with the accessory fan motor sequencing kit and winter start kit (purchased separately). The Motormaster I device controls outdoor fan no. 1 while outdoor fans no. 2 and 3 are sequenced off by the accessory fan motor sequencing kit.

Accessory Fan Motor Sequencing Kit — Install the accessory fan motor sequencing kit per instruction supplied with acces- sory (purchased separately).

Winter Start Time Delay Relay Kit — Install the kit per the instructions supplied with the accessory (purchased separately).

Sensor Assembly — Install the sensor assembly in the loca- tion shown in Fig. 23.
