2 - SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS
WARNING: Switch o the main electrical power supply to the
unit and accessories (if installed) before doing any work on
the unit.
2.1 - General
Installing, commissioning and servicing of the various components
(unit, control system, hot and cold water system, air distribution
system) can be dangerous unless certain aspects of the
installation, such as the presence of mains electricity and hot or
cold water in the air conditioning equipment, are taken into account.
Only specially trained and qualied technicians and installers who
have been fully trained on the product concerned are authorised
to install, commission and service this equipment.
During servicing work, it is essential to apply all recommendations
and instructions given in service leaets, on labels or in the
instructions delivered with the equipment, and to comply with any
other relevant instructions.
Denition of the pictograms used:
-Electrical danger - Fig. 3
-Caution hand hazard - Fig. 4
-General danger - Fig. 5
Comply with all safety rules and regulations currently in force.
Wear eye protectors and work gloves. Take care when moving or
positioning equipment.
2.2 - Protection against electrocution
Only personnel qualied to perform electrical and maintenance
work may make electrical connections. In particular it is obligatory
to disconnect all power supplies to the unit and its accessories
before carrying out any work. Disconnect the main power supply
with an isolating device (not supplied by Carrier).
IMPORTANT: The components, which make up the dierent
control loops described in this manual include electronic
items. As such, they may generate or be harmed by
electromagnetic interference unless they are installed and
used in accordance with these instructions. The components
making up these control systems conform to the requirements
of electromagnetic compatibility in residential, commercial
and light industrial areas. They also comply with the low-
voltage directive.
2.3 - General installation conditions
IMPORTANT: The Carrier numeric controller, power module,
or in general units fitted with controls loops must have an
isolating device upstream (for example a double-pole circuit
breaker). If necessary, an easily operated emergency stop
device (such as a punch-button switch) must cut o the power
to all equipment. The installation must be equipped with a
device to protect against earth faults. The disconnect device
must simultaneously disconnect the two poles (phase and
neutral), and have a distance of at least 3 mm between the
contacts, in compliance with the installation instructions. The
mains power cable must have 3 conductors (blue, brown,
green/yellow) and its cross section and type must comply
with the specifications set out by the applicable EN or IEC
standard. Refer to the selection sheet or the name plate to
determine the maximum input current. These devices are not
supplied by Carrier.
In general terms the following rules must be applied:
Upstream over-voltage protection
Unit without electric heater T2A
Unit with electric heater T16A
-Units must be provided with over-voltage protection upstream
(not supplied by Carrier).
-The power disconnection device must be clearly labelled to
identify which items of equipment are connected to it.
-The wiring of the components which make up the dierent
control systems and the communication buses must be
carried out in accordance with the latest rules and regulations
by professional installers.
-The power supply cable must be doubly insulated and xed
using a cable clamp. A hole is provided for this purpose in
the plastic Carrier controller housing. The cable must be
clamped on the outer insulation.
-The control loop components must be installed in an
environment, which conforms to their index of protection (IP).
-The maximum level of pollution is normally pollutant (level
2) and installation category II.
-The low-voltage wiring (communication bus) must be kept
physically separate from the power wiring.
-In order to avoid interference with the communication links:
• Keep low-voltage wiring away from power cables and avoid
using the same cable run (a maximum of 300 mm in
common with the 230 V a.c., 30 A cable).
• Do not pass low-voltage wires through loops in the power
cables.
• Do not connect heavy inductive loads to the same electrical
supply (circuit breaker) used by the controllers, power
modules or speed controllers.
• Use the screened cable type recommended by Carrier and
make sure all cables are connected to the controllers and
power modules.
2.4 - Caution for the control of the 42BJ ICM
LEC
IMPORTANT: It is not permitted to connect several 42BJ ICM
LEC units to the same control device (wall thermostat,
electronic NTC controller, HDB controller, etc.)
