50PG03-- 07

INSTALLATION

Step 1 — Provide Unit Support

Roof Curb

Assemble or install accessory roof curb in accordance with instructions shipped with this accessory. (See Fig. 1.) Install insulation, cant strips, roofing, and counter flashing as shown. Ductwork can be installed to roof curb before unit is set in place. Ductwork must be attached to curb and not to the unit. Curb must be level. This is necessary to permit unit drain to function properly. Unit leveling tolerance is 1/16-in. per linear ft in any direction. Refer to Accessory Roof Curb Installation Instructions for additional information as required. When accessory roof curb is used, unit may be installed on class A, B, or C roof covering material. Carrier roof curb accessories are for flat roofs or slab mounting.

IMPORTANT: The gasketing of the unit to the roof curb is critical for a watertight seal. Install gasket with the roof curb as shown in Fig. 1. Improperly applied gasket can also result in air leaks and poor unit performance. Do not slide unit to position on roof curb.

Alternate Unit Support

When a curb cannot be used, install unit on a noncombustible surface. Support unit with sleepers, using unit curb support area. If sleepers cannot be used, support long sides of unit with a minimum of 3 equally spaced 4-in. x 4-in. pads on each side.

Step 2 — Rig and Place Unit

Inspect unit for transportation damage. See Table 1 for physical data. File any claim with transportation agency.

!CAUTION

PERSONAL INJURY AND PROPERTY DAMAGE HAZARD

Failure to follow this caution may result in damage to roof.

All panels must be in place when rigging. Unit is not designed for handling by fork truck.

Do not drop unit; keep upright. Use spreader bars over unit to prevent sling or cable damage. Rollers may be used to move unit across a roof. Level by using unit rail as a reference; leveling tolerance is ± 1/16-in. per linear ft in any direction. See Fig. 3 for additional information. Unit rigging weight is shown in Fig. 3.

Rigging holes are provided in the unit base rails as shown in Fig. 3. Refer to rigging instructions on unit.

Positioning

Maintain clearance, per Fig. 2, around and above unit to provide minimum distance from combustible materials, proper airflow, and service access. See Fig. 4 for location of access panels.

Do not install unit in an indoor location. Do not locate air inlets near exhaust vents or other sources of contaminated air.

Although unit is weatherproof, guard against water from higher level runoff and overhangs.

After unit is in position, remove crating and polyethylene sheet.

Roof Mount

Check building codes for weight distribution requirements. Unit operating weight is shown in Table 1.

Installation Onto Curb

The 50PG units are designed to fit on the accessory full perimeter curb. In either case, correct placement of the unit onto the curb is critical to operating performance. To aid in correct positioning, place unit on roof curb to maintain 1/4-in. gap between the inside of rail and roof curb on long sides and a 1/2-in. gap between the inside of rail and roof curb on both duct and condenser ends. Refer to Fig. 1 and 3, to assure proper duct opening alignment.

NOTE: Before positioning unit onto curb, refer to Step 5 - Install External Trap for Condensate Drain section concerning bottom drain connection plug.

!CAUTION

UNIT DAMAGE HAZARD

Failure to follow this caution may result in equipment damage.

Do not slide unit to position when it is sitting on the curb. Curb gasketing material may be damaged and leaks may result.

Slab Mount (Horizontal Units Only)

Provide a level concrete slab that extends a minimum of 6-in. beyond unit cabinet. Install a gravel apron in front of condenser-coil air inlet to prevent grass and foliage from obstructing airflow.

NOTE: Horizontal units may be installed on a roof curb if required.

CAUTION- NOTICE TO RIGGERS:

ACCESS PANEL MUST BE IN PLACE WHEN RIGGING.

Hook rigging shackles through holes in base rail, as shown in Detail A. Holes in base rails are centered around the unit center of gravity. Use wooden top skid, when rigging, to prevent rigging straps from damaging unit.
