GT-PG ECM Control Features

The ECM fan is controlled by an interface board that converts thermostat inputs and field selectable CFM settings to signals used by the ECM motor controller.

Units manufactured before July 2005 have version I (P/N 69243707). Units manufactured between July 2005 and May 11, 2009 have version II (P/N 17B0019N01). Fan speeds are selected with jumpers for version I or via a nine position DIP switch for version II and III. To take full advantage of the ECM motor features, a multi-stage thermostat should be used (2-stage heat/2-stage cool or 3-stage heat/2-stage cool).

HFC-410A packaged units built after May 11, 2009 have a ECM controllers version III (P/N 17B0034N01). This controller includes logic and a relay to control the HWG functions.

Note: Power must be off to the unit for at least three seconds before the ECM motor will recognize a speed change. The motor will recognize a change in the CFM Adjust or dehumidification mode settings while the unit is powered.

There are four different airflow settings from lowest airflow rate (speed tap 1) to the highest airflow rate (speed tap 4). The charts below indicate settings for both versions of the ECM interface board, followed by detailed information for each setting.

Cooling Settings: The cooling setting determines the cooling (normal) CFM for all units with ECM motor. Cooling (normal) setting is used when the unit is not in dehumidification mode. This setting also determines the heating CFM for GT-G (50YC) units. Tap 1 is the lowest CFM setting, while tap 4 is the highest CFM setting. To avoid air coil freeze-up, tap 1 may not be used if the dehumidification mode is selected. Consult submittal data or specifications catalog for the specific unit series and model to correlate speed tap setting to airflow in CFM.

Heating Settings: The heating setting determines the heating CFM for GT-PX (50YD) and GT-PG (50YE) units. This setting is not used for GT-G (50YC) units. Tap 1 is the lowest CFM setting, while tap 4 is the highest CFM setting. Consult submittal data or specifications catalog for the specific unit series and model to correlate speed tap setting to airflow in CFM.

Auxiliary/Emergency Heat Settings: The auxiliary/ emergency heat setting determines the CFM when the unit is in auxiliary heat or emergency heat mode. This setting is used for residential units with internal electric heat. When auxiliary electric heat is energized (i.e. compressor and electric heat), the greater of the auxiliary/emergency

or heating setting will be used. A “G” (fan) signal must be present from the thermostat for electric heat to operate. Consult the submittal data or specifications catalog for the specific unit series and model to correlate speed tap setting to airflow in CFM.

CFM Adjust Settings: The CFM adjust setting allows four selections. The NORM setting is the factory default position. The + or – settings adjust the airflow by +/- 15%. The +/- settings are used to “fine tune” airflow adjustments. The TEST setting runs the ECM motor at 70% torque, which causes the motor to operate like a standard PSC motor, and disables the CFM counter.

Dehumidification Mode Settings: The dehumidification mode setting provides field selection of humidity control. When operating in the normal mode, the cooling airflow settings are determined by the cooling tap setting above. When dehumidification is enabled there is a reduction in airflow in cooling to increase the moisture removal of the heat pump. Consult submittal data or specifications catalog for the specific unit series and model to correlate speed tap to airflow in CFM. The dehumidification mode can be enabled in two ways.

1.Constant Dehumidification Mode: When the dehumidification mode is selected (via DIP switch or jumper setting), the ECM motor will operate with a multiplier applied to the cooling CFM settings (approx. 20-25% lower airflow). Any time the unit is running in the cooling mode, it will operate at the lower airflow to improve latent capacity. The “DEHUM” LED will be illuminated at all times. Heating airflow is not affected. NOTE: Do not select dehumidification mode if cooling setting is tap 1.

2.Automatic (Humidistat-controlled) Dehumidification Mode: When the dehumidification mode is selected (via DIP switch or jumper setting) AND a humidistat is connected to terminal DH (version II) or HUM (version I), the cooling airflow will only be reduced when the humidistat senses that additional dehumidification is required. The DH (or HUM) terminal is reverse logic. Therefore, a humidistat (not dehumidistat) is required. The “DEHUM” LED will be illuminated only when the humidistat is calling for dehumidification mode. Heating airflow is not affected. NOTE: Do not select dehumidification mode if cooling setting is tap 1.
