Goodman Mfg ARPF, ARPT, AEPT operating instructions Unit Inspection

When matched with a Goodman or Amana brand condenser or heat pump, an ARI certified rating is available for many combinations.

The AEPT models are equipped with an ECMTM motor. An ECMTM motor is more efficient than a standard PSC motor and offers features such as soft-start, controlled off-delays, and constant CFM. Additional features and the associated controls are discussed later in this manual.

Electric heat is available for all models. This is an accessory and is not provided with the equipment. Use only the electric heat kits identified in the “Electric Heat” section of this manual.

These air handlers are intended for use with a room thermostat. This thermostat is not supplied with this equipment. Only thermostats that use 24 VAC operating voltage can be used.

UNIT INSPECTION

Upon delivery, inspect the unit for damage. Any damage must be reported immediately to the carrier. Do not install this equipment if it is determined that the integrity or safety has been compromised by freight damage.

Using the table “Model Identification” section, check the equipment model number to ensure the unit is appropriately sized for the condenser unit.

If an incorrect unit is supplied, it must not be installed and it is to be returned to the supplier. The manufacturer assumes no responsibility for the installation of incorrectly delivered units.

The evaporator coil contains a high-pressure inert gas holding charge.

WARNING

REFER TO THE “INSTALLING ELECTRIC HEAT” SECTION OF THIS MANUAL AND THE INSTRUCTIONS PROVIDED WITH THE HEAT KIT FOR THE CORRECT INSTALLATION PROCEDURE.

WARNING

THE ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS OF THE AIR HANDLER, THE ELECTRIC HEAT KIT, AND THE SUPPLY POWER MUST AGREE, UNLESS USING HKR3 (3 PHASE) SERIES HEAT KIT. THIS AIR HANDLER DOES NOT HAVE FACTORY INSTALLED ELECTRIC HEAT. ELECTRIC HEAT IS AVAILABLE AS AN ACCESSORY. IF INSTALLING THIS OPTION, THE ONLY HEAT KITS THAT CAN BE USED ARE THE HKR SERIES AS INDICATED BELOW: NOTE: THE AMANA BRAND EHK, ECB, EDB, AND EDK KITS ARE NOT APPROVED FOR USE WITH THESE AIR HANDLERS.

The heating mode temperature rise is dependent upon the system airflow, the supply voltage, and the heat kit size (kW) selected. Use Tables 1-3to determine the temperature rise (oF).

208/1/60 Supply Voltage - Temperature Rise Table °F

Note: For installations not indicated above the following formula is to be used:

TR = (kW x 3412) x (Voltage Correction) x 1.08 / CFM

Where: TR	= Temperature Rise
KW	= Heater Kit Actual kW
3412	= Btu per kW
Voltage Correction		=.96 (230 Supply Volts)
		=.92 (220 Supply Volts)
1.08	= Constant	=.87 (208 Supply Volts)
CFM	= Measured Airflow

NOTE: The Temperature Rise Tables can also be used to determine the air handler airflow delivery. When using these tables for this purpose set the room thermostat to
