Carrier PSV, PSD006-070, 50PSH instruction manual Wire Field Power Supply, Supply/Return Hose Kit

Optional pressure-rated hose assemblies designed specifi- cally for use with Carrier units are available. Similar hoses can be obtained from alternate suppliers. Supply and return hoses are fitted with swivel-joint fittings at one end to prevent kink- ing during installation.

CAUTION

Backup wrench is required when tightening water connec- tions to prevent water line damage. Failure to use a backup wrench could result in equipment damage.

Refer to Fig. 14 for an illustration of a supply/return hose kit. Male adapters secure hose assemblies to the unit and risers. Install hose assemblies properly and check them regularly to avoid system failure and reduced service life.

Step 8 — Wire Field Power Supply

WARNING

To avoid possible injury or death due to electrical shock, open the power supply disconnect switch and secure it in an open position during installation.

CAUTION

Use only copper conductors for field-installed electrical wiring. Unit terminals are not designed to accept other types of conductors. Failure to use copper conductors could result in equipment damage.

All field-installed wiring, including the electrical ground, MUST comply with the National Electrical Code (NEC) as well as applicable local codes. In addition, all field wiring must conform to the Class II temperature limitations described in the NEC.

Refer to unit wiring diagrams Fig. 15-25 for a schematic of the field connections, which must be made by the installing (or electrical) contractor. Refer to Tables 4-6 for fuse sizes.

Consult the unit wiring diagram located on the inside of the compressor access panel to ensure proper electrical hookup. The installing (or electrical) contractor must make the field connections when using field-supplied disconnect.

Operating voltage must be the same voltage and phase as shown in electrical data shown in Tables 4-6.

Make all final electrical connections with a length of flexi- ble conduit to minimize vibration and sound transmission to the building.

POWER CONNECTION — Make line voltage connection by connecting the incoming line voltage wires to the line side of the compressor contactor terminal as shown in Fig. 26. See Tables 4-6 for amperage ratings to provide cor- rect wire and maximum overcurrent protection sizing.

SUPPLY VOLTAGE — Operating voltage to unit must be within voltage range indicated on unit nameplate.

On 3-phase units, voltages under load between phases must be balanced within 2%. Use the following formula to deter- mine the percentage voltage imbalance:

% Voltage Imbalance

= 100 x	max voltage deviation from average voltage
	average voltage

Example: Supply voltage is 460-3-60.

AB = 452 volts BC = 464 volts AC = 455 volts

Average Voltage = 452 + 464 + 455 3

= 1371 3

= 457

Determine maximum deviation from average voltage:

(AB) 457 – 452 = 5 v (BC) 464 – 457 = 7 v (AC) 457 – 455 = 2 v

Maximum deviation is 7 v. Determine percent voltage imbalance.

% Voltage Imbalance =	100 x	7
		457
=	1.53%

This amount of phase imbalance is satisfactory as it is below the maximum allowable 2%.

Operation on improper line voltage or excessive phase imbalance constitutes abuse and may cause damage to electri- cal components.

NOTE: If more than 2% voltage imbalance is present, contact your local electric utility.

208-VOLT OPERATION — All 208-230 volt units are factory wired for 208 volts. The transformers may be switched to 230-volt operation by switching the red (208 volt) wire with the orange (230 volt) wire at the L1 terminal.

460-VOLT OPERATION — Units using 460-v and an ECM (electronically commutated motor) fan motor, modulat- ing HWR, and/or internal secondary pump will require a neutral wire from the supply side in order to feed accessory with 265-v.
