Compressor Unit Placement
EarthLinked®compressor units may be located inside or outside. If outside, place compressor
unit on a standard HVAC outdoor unit pad. If inside, place it on a level, hard surface. If the
compressor unit is to be fastened down, see Figure 3 for bracket installation.
Avoid placing the compressor unit in or near the living area of the residence.
Attic installations must include a condensate pan with drain, and suspension from rafters with
suspension isolators.
Clearance around the unit for service is illustrated in Figure 4. However, local codes and
applicable regulations take precedence.
SD(H) Compressor Unit must be placed in an environment in which the surrounding air
temperature does not drop below 40°F.
If the compressor unit is located inside, allow 40 cubic feet of unrestricted space per ton of
nominal system capacity, around the compressor unit, consistent with the acceptable refrigerant
concentration limit (RCL) per ASHRAE Standards 15-2010 and 34-2010.

Placement instructions for other pieces of equipment that make up the EarthLinked®System are
included with those pieces of equipment and are listed in this manual under Equipment Manuals.
Refrigeration
After the EarthLinked®compressor unit and other system components are placed, the refrigeration
system tubing is run from the compressor unit to the other components, as appropriate. Figure 5
illustrates the refrigeration and electrical connection points for the SD(H) compressor unit.
IMPORTANT!
EarthLinked®compressor units that provide space cooling shall be
equipped with an EarthLinked® Hybrid Cooling Module (HCM) when:
(1) Required by the performance tables OR where BOTH of the
following circumstances occur:
(2) Ambient outdoor temperatures have exceeded the outdoor summer
design temperature conditions for a continuous system run time of
at least 7 hours, coupled with the conditions described in (3).
(3) Low thermal conductivity soils that do not effectively absorb and
dissipate heat. Examples of such soils are light dry soil or dry
sand, peat and organic soils dry clay soils and hardpan.
ALSO
EarthLinked®compressor units that provide space heating shall be
equipped with a Heating Performance Enhancement (HPE) when
required by the performance tables.

SD-410-QS (H) (06/15) Page 11
Compressor units are shipped from the factory with a low pressure nitrogen holding charge. Carefully
relieve the holding charge when the compressor unit is being prepared to connect refrigerant system
piping.
Caution!
This compressor unit is equipped with POE lubricant. POE lubricant
absorbs significant amounts of moisture from the air very rapidly.
Exposure of the POE lubricant to air must be minimized. Even a few
minutes of exposure to air can be harmful to the system.
After the initial nitrogen holding charge has been released from the
compressor unit, it is critical that air not be allowed to enter the
compressor unit during the process of preparing compressor unit
refrigerant connections (tube cutting, deburring, cleaning, brazing, etc).
To ensure air does not enter the compressor unit while preparing
refrigerant connections, “trickle” dry nitrogen through the compressor
unit, entering at the access port nearest the Active Charge Control
(ACC), to keep airborne moisture out of the compressor unit and the
POE lubricant.
Complete preparing and brazing all compressor unit refrigerant
connections at one setting to minimize exposure of open connections
to air. Failure to implement the above precautions will result in an
extended period of time to effectively evacuate the system, and may
adversely affect system performance and cause system failure.
Caution!
REFRIGERANT PIPING CONNECTIONS
Refrigerant joints are to be brazed with 15% silver content brazing
alloy, utilizing the NITROGEN BRAZING PROCESS.
NITROGEN BRAZING PROCESS
PURPOSE:
Utilize the NITROGEN BRAZING PROCESS on all brazed refrigerant
piping connections. This process eliminates oxidation products from
inside joint surfaces.
TECHNIQUE:
“Trickle” nitrogen gas at 1-2 psi pressure through the joint area being
brazed, to displace the oxygen. When oxygen has been displaced,
turn off the nitrogen, and relieve the pressure at the joint to
atmospheric prior to brazing.
CONSEQUENCES:
Failure to displace oxygen with nitrogen at the brazed joint will result
in particulate matter being released into the system. The result is
discoloration of refrigerant oil, contamination of the system and
possible system failure.

SD-410-QS (H) (06/15) Page 12
The compressor unit package contains a service valve kit and an adapter kit. The two service
valves are to be installed on the earth loop vapor and liquid connections of the compressor
unit, using the adapters to right-size to the proper earth loop line set.
Installation of the service valves will provide isolation of the earth loop system from the compressor
unit and provide easy access to the refrigerant system.
For the installation of system components requiring refrigeration connections, refer to Figure 6 for line
set sizes and the appropriate installation manual(s) following Figure 6.

After installing and nitrogen brazing the HVAC system components and compressor unit service
valves, turn the Service Valves to Full Open and pressurize the refrigeration system to 150 psig with
dry nitrogen and a trace of refrigerant. Valve off the nitrogen Tank from the HVAC system
components and check joints with a sensitive Electronic Leak Detector to ensure they are sealed.
Repair any leaks and re-test as appropriate.

System Applications and Electrical
The SD(H) compressor unit electrical box major components and electric data for all compressor
sizes are shown in Figure 7.
The SureStart Module is a factory installed component that (1) reduces compressor starting current
and (2) reduces compressor starting torque, thus reducing stress on the compressor at start-up.
The Earth Loop Protection Control System, comprised of the EPS Power Supply, EPS Module and
EPS Fuse is in the contained within the electric box. This system is factory wired and ready to be
connected to the anode wire through an external electrical connection on the backside of the
compressor cabinet. The anode wire connection is detailed in a later section of this manual.
SD(H) Heating and Cooling System electrical and application illustrations are as follows.
