12 Specifications subject to change without notice. CHS-072-121-01SI
Evacuation/Dehydration
Evacuate and dehydrate the connected refrigeration sys-
tem(s) (excluding the CHS unit) to 500 microns using a two-
stage vacuum pump attached to the service ports outside
the CHS service valves, following description in GTAC II,
Module 4, System Dehydration.
Preliminary Charge
Before starting the unit, charge R-410A liquid refrigerant into
the high side of each CHS circuit through the liquid service
valve(s). The amount of refrigerant added must be at least
80% of the operating charge listed in Table 5 for LINEAR
line length LESS the factory charge quantity (if factory ship-
ping charge has not been removed). See the following
example.
Allow high and low side pressures to equalize. If pressures
do not equalize readily, charge R-410A vapor (using special
service manifold with expansion device) into the vapor line
service port for the low side of system to assure charge in
the evaporator. Refer to GTAC II, Module 5, Charging,
Recover, Recycling, and Reclamation for liquid charging
procedures.
Example:
CHS*091
60 ft (18.3 m) linear line length
Equivalent line length 90 ft (27.4 m)
Liquid Lift: 20 ft (6.1 m)
Select line sizes from Table 5:
Liquid 1/2 in.
Vapor 1-1/8 in.
Charge 23.0 lb (at 75 ft linear length)
80% of Operating Charge:
0.80 x 23.0 = 17.6 lb
Factory Shipping Charge: 9 lb
Field-charge quantity: 17.6 lb – 9.0 lb = 8.6 lb
For linear line lengths longer than 100 ft (30.5 m), contact
your local representative for system charge value.
Step 6 — Install Accessories
Accessories requiring modifications to unit wiring should be
completed now. These accessories may include Winter
Start controls, Low Ambient controls, phase monitor, Com-
pressor Lockout. Refer to the instructions shipped with the
accessory. Additionally, for low ambient controls, refer to
Table 10.
Step 7 — Complete Electrical Connections
NOTE: Field-supplied wiring shall conform with the limita-
tions of minimum 63°F (33°C) rise.
FIELD POWER SUPPLY
If equipped with optional Powered Convenience Outlet: The
power source leads to the convenience outlet’s transformer
primary are not factory connected. Installer must connect
these leads according to required operation of the conve-
nience outlet. If an always-energized convenience outlet op-
eration is desired, connect the source leads to the line side
of the unit-mounted disconnect. (Check with local codes to
ensure this method is acceptable in your area.) If a de-
energize via unit disconnect switch operation of the conve-
nience outlet is desired, connect the source leads to the
load side of the unit disconnect. On a unit without a unit-
mounted disconnect, connect the source leads to compres-
sor contactor C with unit field power leads.
Field power wires are connected to the unit at line-side
pressure lugs on compressor contactor C and TB1 (see wir-
ing diagram label for control box component arrangement)
or at factory-installed option non-fused disconnect switch.
Max wire size is no. 4 AWG (copper only).
NOTE: TEST LEADS — Unit may be equipped with short
leads (pigtails) on the field line connection points on contac-
tor C or optional disconnect switch. These leads are for fac-
tory run-test purposes only; remove and discard before con-
necting field power wires to unit connection points. Make
field power connections directly to line connection pressure
lugs only.
WARNING
UNIT OPERATION AND SAFETY HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could cause personal injury,
death and/or equipment damage.
R-410A refrigerant systems operate at higher pressures
than standard R-22 systems. Do not use R-22 service
equipment or components on R-410A refrigerant
equipment.
IMPORTANT: Charge in Cooling mode only!

WARNING
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal inju-
ry or death.
Do not use gas piping as an electrical ground. Unit cabi-
net must have an uninterrupted, unbroken electrical
ground to minimize the possibility of personal injury if an
electrical fault should occur. This ground may consist of
electrical wire connected to unit ground lug in control
compartment, or conduit approved for electrical ground
when installed in accordance with NEC (National Electri-
cal Code); ANSI/NFPA 70, latest edition (in Canada, Ca-
nadian Electrical Code CSA [Canadian Standards Asso-
ciation] C22.1), and local electrical codes.
