General
The EA series electric auxiliary heater mounts internally in vertical top and bottom discharge units to provide supplemental and/
or emergency heating capability. On horizontal and rear discharge vertical units, the EA series electric auxiliary heater control box
mounts internally while the electric resistance coil assembly mounts externally. The auxiliary heater uses a control board which
contains the line voltage element control relays. Signals from the main unit control energize the relays in a time-staged sequence.
The auxiliary heater feeds line voltage power to the blower motor and unit transformer to provide emergency heat capability in the
event of an open compressor circuit breaker (caused by a malfunctioning compressor).

Installation Steps
NOTE: Refer to the unit and auxiliary heat electrical diagrams for connector identification.
1) Examine the auxiliary heater kit for shipping damage. The
EAL(H)15 and EAL(H)20 are supplied with breakers. The
breakers are wrapped in foam and secured in the packaging.
Remove the foam from the breakers and snap the breakers into
the slots provided on the heater frame or control box to secure.
2) Disconnect power supply to unit.
3) Remove blower and compressor section front access panels.
4) Auxiliary heat low voltage control, snip the tie holding the 6-pin
connector to the cabinet in the blower section.
5) For variable speed ECM models, unplug the power connections
to the blower motor. Remove the ground screw and wire from
the blower housing. Leave motor power connected for PSC and
5-speed ECM models.
6) For vertical units (see Figure 1):
a) Remove bolts holding the blower into the cabinet and remove blower assembly from unit.
b) Install auxiliary heat element rack into the unit in place of the blower assembly and replace bolts.
c) Install blower assembly into the auxiliary heat element rack using bolts provided.
7) For horizontal units (see Figure 2):
a) Remove(12)screwsholdingductflangestothecabinet.
b) Installauxiliaryheaterelementrackonunitinplaceofductflanges.
c) Replace (12) screws.
d) Knock out the 2 in. knockout and insert the provided bushing.
e) Run wires through the bushing to the control box.
f) Seal the gap between the wires and bushing with cork tape.
g) Install the cover over the exposed electrical elements.
8) Plug the connector(s) from the element rack, on all EA*H and EAS4 heater kits, into the receptacles (P7 and/or P8) on the
back of the control box. Plugs may be located in either receptacle (see Figure 3). Ensure that connectors are engaged
correctly. When properly connected, the locking tab must be squeezed for disconnection. For horizontal and rear
discharge vertical units, seal hole between elements and air handler compartment.

IMPORTANT: Remove the black/white and gray/white jumper wires routed from the contactor (CC) to the power
strip (PS) in the main control box.
15) Check to ensure that the blower high speed setting is above the minimum CFM required for the heater (see Table 8). Wire
tie all leads away from blower inlet and rough edges. On vertical bottom discharge units, make sure wires are equipped with
a drip loop to prevent condensation from running down to motor or element connectors.
16) Units with the three operating modes of forced air heating/cooling/hydronic heating with 15 and 20 kW electric heat option,
line jumpers need to be placed on the auxiliary heat board terminal block P1 from 1 to 3 and 2 to 4. This is necessary since
this product line only allows two stages of electric heat. The first stage will have 10 kW of electric heat, and with second
stage will produce a total of either 15 or 20 kW of electric heat depending on which model of electric heat is installed. Other
product lines have no staging at all and others allow up to four stages of electric heat at 5 kW intervals and line jumpers are
not necessary.
17) Connect power to the auxiliary heat control box (one or two circuits as per Table 9). When single source power is required,
jumper bar assembly (part number 19P592-01) should be used on electric heat kits supplied with breakers.

back to its original location on the circuit board.
EAL(H)20*
Remove the GRAY and BLACK wires from the quick connect terminals on the L2 side of the auxiliary heat power block that is supplied by the
BLACK wire from the L2 side of the 60 amp breaker. Route both wires through the inside of the current transducer and connect them back to their
original location on the power block. Then remove the YELLOW wire from the NO connection on the K3 relay and the PINK wire from the NO
connection on the K4 relay that are located on the auxiliary heat circuit board. Route both of these wires, along with the previously routed GRAY and
BLACK wires, through the center of the current transducer and connect them back to their original location on the circuit board.
* If two separate circuits are used to supply power to the auxiliary heat kit, the Installer will need to verify that each leg of the auxiliary heat circuit breakers are wired
from the power supply correctly in order for the current transducer to operate properly. This can be done by measuring the supply side voltage of the auxiliary heat
circuit breakers. Put a voltmeter on the L2 side of Circuit Breaker One and on the L2 side of Circuit Breaker Two. The voltmeter should read approximately 0 volts.
If the meter reads high voltage, the auxiliary heat breakers need to be rewired so that breakers in the auxiliary heat kit match the wiring of the Disconnect Panel
breakers. Meaning, L1 from one breaker in the disconnect panel must connect to L1 at one of the auxiliary heat circuit breakers and L1 from the other breaker in the
disconnect panel must connect to L1 of the other auxiliary heat circuit breaker, and L2 from both breakers in the disconnect panel must connect to L2 at both auxiliary
heat breakers.
NOTE: Units that have the Aurora Advanced Control option are shipped from the factory with a current transducer already connected to one of the blower motor power
wires. If the blower motor in the unit is a variable speed or 5-speed ECM, an extra step is needed to ensure that the Energy Monitoring feature will work properly.
On units that have the Aurora Advanced Control option and a variable speed or 5-speed ECM blower motor, the brown wire that is routed twice through the current
transducer will need to be replaced with the blue wire that is connected to the auxiliary heat power block. Disconnect the brown blower power wire from the PB2 power
block in the units control box. Route wire into the blower section and remove the current transducer. Reconnect the brown wire to the PB2 power block in the unit’s
control box. Remove the blue wire from the quick connect terminal on the auxiliary heat power block. Route this wire through the current transducer center twice and
