System Requirements

Heat pump system matches are derived from actual laboratory testing of matched systems. It is recommended that only matching equipment be used to ensure proper operation and efficient performance.

???The designed system matches are listed in the heat pump unit specification sheets and on the heat pump refrigerant charging instructions located on the back of the service access panel.

???Refrigerant charging instructions include a list of matching indoor equipment with the proper thermal expansion valve size and amount of refrigerant charge required.

???This heat pump has been factory charged with a quantity of refrigerant (R-410A) sufficient for a matched indoor coil and a maximum 15 ft of refrigerant line.

???In order to maintain the 16 SEER rating, this heat pump must be matched with an indoor section containing a variable speed blower.

???Refer to the refrigerant charge label located on the inside of the heat pump access panel for the correct thermal expansion valve size required.

???This product has been designed and manufactured to meet ENERGY STAR?? criteria for energy efficiency when matched with appropriate coil components. However, proper refrigerant charge and proper airflow are critical to achieve rated capacity and efficiency. Installation of this product should follow the manufacturer???s refrigerant charging and airflow instructions. Failure to confirm proper charge and airflow may reduce energy efficiency and shorten equipment life.

???A filter drier approved for use with R-410A refrigerant is installed in the heat pump.

???If this condensing unit is equipped with a crankcase heater, it should be energized 24 hours before the condensing unit is started to prevent compressor damage as a result of slugging.

???Use only polyol ester oils if oil must be added to the system. Mineral oil is not compatible with refrigerant.

Indoor System Thermal Expansion Valve

???W4GH6 units are designed for use with thermal expansion valve systems only. The thermal expansion valve must be ordered separately from the manufacturer.

Thermal Expansion Valve Kits

Location Requirements

???This heat pump is designed to be located outdoors with sufficient clearance for free entrance to the inlet and discharge air openings. The location must also allow for adequate service access. See ???Minimum Clearances.???

???Where possible, select a location for the heat pump which is shaded from the direct rays of the sun most of the time. North or east locations are usually most desirable. Position the heat pump to avoid direct contact with water, snow or ice from a roofline overhead.

???The heat pump must be installed on a solid, level mounting pad that will not settle or shift. Isolate the pad from the building structure to avoid possible transmission of sound or vibration from the heat pump into the conditioned space.

???The heat pump foundation should be raised to a minimum of 3" above finish grade. In areas which have prolonged periods of temperatures below freezing, and/or snowfall, the heat pump should be elevated above the average snow line. If heat pump is to be installed on a flat roof, it should be on a platform or other support which will raise the inlet air opening 12" minimum above the surface of the flat roof.

???Care should be taken to ensure free drainage of condensate from defrost cycles. This will prevent ice accumulation. The heat pump should be located away from walkways to prevent possible icing from defrost condensate.

???Avoid placing the heat pump near areas such as sleeping quarters or study rooms. Normal operating sound levels may be objectionable if the heat pump is placed near certain rooms. A shift in sound type does occur during the defrost mode. The defrost mode generally lasts no longer than

10 minutes.

1.Operate the heat pump for a period of at least 15 minutes to allow for pressures and temperatures to stabilize.

2.If heat pump does not appear to be functioning correctly, have heat pump checked by a person certified by the EPA to handle refrigerant.

Cooling Cycle

Upon cooling demand, the thermostat closes circuit R to O and Y. Closing R to O and Y energizes the reversing valve for cooling operation and closes the heat pump contactor, starting the compressor and outdoor fan. The thermostat automatically closes R to G circuit, which also brings on the indoor fan at the same time. Upon satisfying cooling demand, the thermostat will open the above circuits and open the main contactor, stopping the compressor and outdoor fan. If the indoor unit is equipped with a delay timer, the blower will continue to operate for 60 to 90 seconds, which improves system efficiency.

Heating Cycle

Upon heating demand, the thermostat closes circuit R to Y, which closes the heat pump contactor, starting the compressor and outdoor fan. The reversing valve is not energized in the heating mode. The thermostat again automatically brings on the indoor fan at the same time. Upon satisfying heating demand, the thermostat opens the above circuits and stops heat pump operation.

Defrost Cycle

If the outdoor ambient conditions are such that frost forms on the outdoor coil, the defrost control monitors a defrost cycle. It then runs the defrost cycle as ambient temperatures require.

The defrost control is time/temperature initiated and temperature terminated with a maximum defrost time (time-out) of 10 minutes. The time between defrost cycles is preset at 60-minute intervals at the factory, but can be field adjusted between 30, 60, or

90 minutes. To adjust the time period between defrost cycles, see ???Adjust Time Between Defrost Cycles.???

The defrost control will initiate a defrost cycle when the selected time period has elapsed and the defrost sensor sees a temperature below freezing. At the start of a defrost cycle, the defrost control will energize the reversing valve solenoid, shifting the reversing valve and de-energizing the outdoor fan. The defrost relay will also close, energizing temporary heat for increased comfort during defrost (if the indoor unit is so equipped). The heat pump will remain in defrost until the defrost sensor has determined that the frost has been removed from the coil or a 10-minute period has elapsed, whichever comes first.

Defrost Thermostat

The defrost thermostat is located on the liquid line between the check/expansion valve and the distributor. When defrost thermostat senses 42??F or cooler, the thermostat contacts close and send a signal to the defrost control board to start the defrost timing. It also terminates defrost when the liquid line warms up to 70??F.

Defrost Control

The defrost control board includes the combined functions of the time/temperature defrost control, defrost relay, diagnostic LEDs and terminal strip for field wiring connections. See ???Defrost Control Board??? in the ???Adjust Defrost System??? section.

The control provides automatic switching from normal heating operation to defrost mode and back. During compressor cycle (call for defrost), the control accumulates compressor run times at 30, 60 or 90 minute field-adjustable intervals. If the defrost thermostat is closed when the selected compressor run time interval ends, the defrost relay is energized and defrost begins.

Defrost Control Timing Pins

Each timing pin selection provides a different accumulated compressor run time period during one thermostat run cycle. This time period must occur before a defrost cycle is initiated. The defrost interval can be adjusted to 30 (T1), 60 (T2) or 90 (T3) minutes. See ???Defrost Control Board??? in the ???Adjust Defrost System??? section. The defrost timing jumper is factory-installed to provide a 60-minute defrost interval. If the timing selector jumper is not in place, the control defaults to a 90-minute defrost interval. The maximum defrost period is 14 minutes and cannot be adjusted.

A test option is provided for troubleshooting. The test mode may be started any time the unit is in the heating mode and the defrost thermostat is closed or jumpered. If the jumper is in the test position at power-up, the control will ignore the test pins. When the jumper is placed across the Test pins for 2 seconds, the control will enter the defrost mode. If the jumper is removed before an additional 5-second period has elapsed (7 seconds total), the unit will remain in defrost mode until the defrost thermostat opens or 14 minutes have passed. If the jumper is not removed until after the additional 5-second period has elapsed, the defrost will terminate and the test option will not function again until the jumper is removed and re-applied.

Compressor Delay

The defrost board has a field-selectable function to reduce occasional sounds that may occur while the heat pump is cycling in and out of the defrost mode. The compressor will be cycled off for 30 seconds while going in and out of the defrost mode when the compressor delay jumper is removed.

NOTE: The 30-second ???off??? cycle is not functional when jumpering the TEST pins.

Time Delay

The time delay is 5 minutes long. The delay helps to protect the compressor from short cycling in case the power to the heat pump is interrupted or a pressure switch opens. The delay is bypassed by placing the timer select jumper across the TEST pins for 0.5 seconds.

Pressure Switch Circuit

The defrost control includes LO-PS terminals to connect an optional low pressure (loss of charge pressure) switch. A high pressure switch (optional) can be connected to the HI PS terminals. See ???Defrost Control Board??? in the ???Adjust Defrost System??? section.

During a single demand cycle, the defrost control will lock out the heat pump after the fifth time that the circuit is interrupted by any pressure switch wired to the control board. In addition,

the diagnostic LEDs will indicate a locked-out pressure switch after the fifth occurrence of an open pressure switch. See Defrost Control Board Diagnostic LEDs chart later in this section. The heat pump will remain locked out until power to the board is interrupted, then re-established, or until the jumper is applied to the TEST pins for 0.5 seconds.

NOTE: The defrost control board ignores input from the low pressure switch terminals during:

???TEST mode

???Defrost cycle

???90-second start-up period

???First 90 seconds after the reversing valve switches heat/cool modes

NOTE: If the TEST pins are jumpered and the 5-minute delay is being bypassed, the LO PS terminal signal is not ignored during the 90-second start-up period.

Failure to do so can result in death or electrical shock.

System Diagnostic Module

W4GH6 heat pumps contain a diagnostic module for troubleshooting heat pump system failures. By monitoring and analyzing data from the compressor and thermostat demand, the module can accurately detect the cause of electrical and system related failure without any sensors. If a system problem occurs, a flashing LED indicator communicates the failure code.

Power LED (Green) indicates voltage is present at the power connection of the module.

Alert LED (Yellow) communicates an abnormal system condition through a unique flash code. The Alert LED will flash a number of times consecutively, pause, and then repeat the process. The number of consecutive flashes correlates to a particular abnormal condition.

Trip LED (Red) indicates there is a demand signal from the thermostat but no current to the compressor is detected by the module. The Trip LED typically indicates the compressor protector is open or may indicate missing supply power to the compressor.

Diagnostic LEDs Interpretation

When an abnormal system condition occurs, the diagnostic module displays the appropriate Alert and/or Trip LED. The yellow Alert LED will flash a number of times consecutively, pause, and then repeat the process. To identify a flash code number, count the number of consecutive flashes. Refer to the Flash Codes chart for information on the flash codes.

Every time the module powers up, the last Alert LED flash code that occurred prior to shutdown is displayed for 60 seconds. The module will continue to display the previous flash code until the condition returns to normal or 24 VAC is removed from the module. Trip and Alert LED???s flashing at the same time means control circuit voltage is too low for operation.

???Compressor protector is open.

???Outdoor unit power disconnect is open.

???Compressor circuit breaker or fuse(s) is open.

???Broken wire or connector is not making contact.

???Low pressure switch is open, if present in system.

???Compressor contactor has failed to open.

Alert (Yellow) Flash Code 7

NOTE: This code will flash within 5 minutes of power interruption until the 5 minute short cycle timer has elapsed. Allow at least 5 minutes of run time before confirming this code.

The diagnostic module requires a constant nominal 24 VAC power supply. The wiring to the module???s R and C terminals must be directly from the indoor unit or thermostat. The module cannot be powered by R and C terminals on the defrost board without experiencing nuisance alerts.

The diagnostic module requires a thermostat demand signal to operate properly. The thermostat demand signal input, labeled Y on the module, should always be connected to the compressor contactor coil so that when the coil is energized, the demand signal input is 24 VAC. When the coil is not energized, the demand signal input should be less than 0.5 VAC.

Depending on the system configuration, some Alert flash codes may not be active. The presence of safety switches affects how the system alerts are displayed by the module.

Incorrectly wiring the diagnostic module will cause false LED codes. The Incorrectly Wired Module Troubleshooting chart describes LED operation when the module is incorrectly wired and what troubleshooting action is required to correct the problem.

SYSTEM MAINTENANCE

???Leaves and other large obstructions should be removed from the heat pump surfaces without damaging the fin surface of the coil.

???Routinely clean or change the indoor air filter. Should the indoor coil become dirty, thus restricting airflow, call a qualified service person to clean the coil surface.

???An annual inspection by a qualified person should be performed to ensure continued quality performance.
