TORQUE REQUIREMENTS
When servicing or repairing HVAC components, ensure
the fasteners are appropriately tightened. Table 1 provides
torque values for fasteners.
IMPORTANT
Only use Allen wrenches of su󰀩cient hardness (50Rc
- Rockwell Harness Scale minimum). Fully insert the
wrench into the valve stem recess.
Service valve stems are factory-torqued (from 9 ft-lbs
for small valves, to 25 ft-lbs for large valves) to prevent
refrigerant loss during shipping and handling. Using an
Allen wrench rated at less than 50Rc risks rounding
or breaking o󰀨 the wrench, or stripping the valve stem
recess.
See the GE Appliances Service and Application Notes
#C-08-1 for further details and information.
IMPORTANT
To prevent stripping of the various caps used, the
appropriately sized wrench should be used and tted
snugly over the cap before tightening.
TABLE 1. Torque Requirements
Parts Recommended Torque
Service valve cap 8 ft.- lb. 11 NM
Sheet metal screws 16 ft.- lb. 2 NM
Machine screws #10 28 ft.- lb. 3 NM
Compressor bolts 90 in.- lb. 10 NM
Gauge port seal cap 8 ft.- lb. 11 NM
USING MANIFOLD GAUGE SET
When checking the system charge, only use a manifold
gauge set that features low loss anti-blow back ttings.
Manifold gauge set used with HFC-410A refrigerant systems
must be capable of handling the higher system operating
pressures. The gauges should be rated for use with pres-
sures of 0 - 800 psig on the high side and a low side of 30”
vacuum to 250 psig with dampened speed to 500 psi. Gauge
hoses must be rated for use at up to 800 psig of pressure
with a 4000 psig burst rating.
OPERATING SERVICE VALVES
The liquid and vapor line service valves are used for remov-
ing refrigerant, ushing, leak testing, evacuating, checking
charge and charging. Each valve is equipped with a service
port which has a factory-installed valve stem. Figure 2 pro-
vides information on how to access and operating both an-
gle and ball service valves

Unit Placement
See Unit Dimensions on page 4 for sizing mounting slab,
platforms or supports. Refer to page 3 for mandatory instal-
lation clearance requirements.
CAUTION
In order to avoid injury, take proper precaution when
lifting heavy objects..
POSITIONING CONSIDERATIONS
Consider the following when positioning the unit:
• Some localities are adopting sound ordinances based on
the unit's sound level registered from the adjacent prop-
erty, not from the installation property. Install the unit as
far as possible from the property line.
• When possible, do not install the unit directly outside a
window. Glass has a very high level of sound transmis-
sion. For proper placement of unit in relation to a window
see the provided illustration in gure 3, detail A.
PLACING UNIT ON SLAB
When installing unit at grade level, the top of the slab should
be high enough above grade so that water from higher
ground will not collect around the unit. The slab should
have a slope tolerance as described in gure 3, detail B.
ROOF MOUNTING
Install the unit a minimum of 6 inches (152 mm) above the
roof surface to avoid ice build-up around the unit. Locate
the unit above a load bearing wall or area of the roof that
can adequately support the unit. Consult local codes for
rooftop applications.
If unit coil cannot be mounted away from prevailing winter
winds, a wind barrier should be constructed. Size barrier
at least the same height and width as outdoor unit. Mount
barrier 24 inches (610 mm) from the sides of the unit in the
direction of prevailing winds.
NOTICE
Roof Damage!
This system contains both refrigerant and oil. Some
rubber roong material may absorb oil, causing the
rubber to swell. Bubbles in the rubber roong material
can cause leaks. Protect the roof surface to avoid
exposure to refrigerant and oil during service and
installation. Failure to follow this notice could result in
damage to roof surface.

Removing and Installing Louvered Panels
To prevent personal injury, or damage to panels, unit or structure, be sure to observe the following:
While installing or servicing this unit, carefully stow all removed panels out of the way, so that the panels will not cause injury to personnel,
nor cause damage to objects or structures nearby, nor will the panels be subjected to damage (e.g., being bent or scratched).
While handling or stowing the panels, consider any weather conditions, especially windy conditions, that may cause panels to be blown
around and battered.

New or Replacement Line Set
This section provides information on new installation or re-
placement of existing line set. If a new or replacement line
set is not required, then proceed to Brazing Connections
on page 12.
If refrigerant lines are routed through a wall, seal and isolate
the opening so vibration is not transmitted to the building.
Pay close attention to line set isolation during installation
of any HVAC system. When properly isolated from building
structures (walls, ceilings. oors), the refrigerant lines will
not create unnecessary vibration and subsequent sounds.
REFRIGERANT LINE SET
Field refrigerant piping consists of liquid and suction lines
from the outdoor unit (braze connections) to the indoor unit
coil (are or braze connections). Use GE Appliances L15
(braze, non-are) series line set, or use eld-fabricated re-
frigerant lines as listed in table 2.

NOTE - Some applications may require a field-provided 7/8” to 1-1/8” adapter.
NOTE – When installing refrigerant lines longer than 50
feet, contact GE Appliances Technical Support Product Ap-
plications for assistance or GE Appliances piping manual.
To obtain the correct information from GE Appliances, be
sure to communicate the following points:
• Model (NS18AT) and size of unit (e.g. -060).
• Line set diameters for the unit being installed as listed in
table 4 and total length of installation.
• Number of elbows and if there is a rise or drop of the
piping.
IMPORTANT
Mineral oils are not compatible with HFC-410A. If oil
must be added, it must be a Polyol ester oil.
The compressor is charged with su󰀩cient Polyol ester oil
for line set lengths up to 50 feet. Recommend adding oil to
system based on the amount of refrigerant charge in the
system. No need to add oil in system with 20 pounds of
refrigerant or less. For systems over 20 pounds - add one
ounce for every ve pounds of refrigerant.
Recommended topping-o󰀨 POE oils are Mobil EAL ARC-
TIC 22 CC or ICI EMKARATE RL32CF.
MATCHING WITH NEW OR EXISTING INDOOR COIL
AND LINE SET
The RFC1-metering line consisted of a small bore copper
line that ran from condenser to evaporator coil. Refrigerant
was metered into the evaporator by utilizing temperature/
pressure evaporation e󰀨ects on refrigerant in the small
RFC line. The length and bore of the RFC line correspond-
ed to the size of cooling unit. If the NS18AT is being used
with either a new or existing indoor coil which is equipped
with a liquid line which served as a metering device (RFCI),
the liquid line must be replaced prior to the installation of
the NS18AT unit. Typically a liquid line used to meter ow
is 1/4” in diameter and copper.
LINE SET ISOLATION
CAUTION
Brazing alloys and ux contain materials which are
hazardous to your health.
Avoid breathing vapors or fumes from brazing operations.
Perform operations only in well-ventilated areas.
Wear gloves and protective goggles or face shield to
protect against burns.
Wash hands with soap and water after handling brazing
alloys and ux.
IMPORTANT
The Clean Air Act of 1990 bans the intentional venting
of refrigerant (CFC’s and HCFC’s) as of July 1, 1992.
Approved methods of recovery, recycling or reclaiming
must be followed. Fines and/or incarceration may be
levied for non-compliance.
IMPORTANT
If this unit is being matched with an approved line set
or indoor unit coil that was previously charged with
mineral oil, or if it is being matched with a coil which
was manufactured before January of 1999, the coil and
line set must be ushed prior to installation. Take care
to empty all existing traps. Polyol ester (POE) oils are
used in GE Appliances units charged with HFC-410A
refrigerant. Residual mineral oil can act as an insulator,
preventing proper heat transfer. It can also clog the
expansion device and reduce system performance and
capacity.
Failure to properly ush the system, per this instruction
and the detailed Installation and Service Procedures
manual will void the warranty.

Brazing Connections
Use the procedures outlined in gures 6 and 7 for brazing
line set connections to service valves.
WARNING
Danger of re. Bleeding the refrigerant
charge from only the high side may result
in pressurization of the low side shell and
suction tubing. Application of a brazing torch
to a pressurized system may result in ignition
of the refrigerant and oil mixture. Check the
high and low pressures before applying heat.
WARNING
When using a high pressure gas such as
nitrogen to pressurize a refrigeration or air
conditioning system, use a regulator that can
control the pressure down to 1 or 2 psig (6.9
to 13.8 kPa).
CAUTION
Brazing alloys and ux contain materials which are
hazardous to your health.
Avoid breathing vapors or fumes from brazing operations.
Perform operations only in well-ventilated areas.
Wear gloves and protective goggles or face shield to
protect against burns.
Wash hands with soap and water after handling brazing
alloys and ux.
IMPORTANT
Allow braze joint to cool before removing the wet rag
from the service valve. Temperatures above 250ºF can
damage valve seals.
IMPORTANT
Use silver alloy brazing rods with 5% minimum silver
alloy for copper-to-copper brazing. Use 45% minimum
alloy for copper-to-brass and copper-to-steel brazing.
WARNING
Fire, Explosion and Personal Safety hazard.
Failure to follow this warning could result in
damage, personal injury or death.
Never use oxygen to pressurize or purge
refrigeration lines. Oxygen, when exposed
to a spark or open ame, can cause re and/
or an explosion, that could result in property
damage, personal injury or death.

INDOOR EXPANSION VALVE INSTALLATION
FIGURE 9. Installing Indoor Expansion Valve
This outdoor unit is designed for use in systems that use a
check expansion valve metering device at the indoor coil.
See the GE Appliances NS18AT Product Specication
bulletin for approved expansion valve kit match-ups. The
expansion valve unit can be installed internal or external
to the indoor coil.
In applications where an uncased coil is being installed in
a eld-provided plenum, install the expansion valve in a
manner that will provide access for eld servicing of the
expansion valve. Refer to below illustration for reference
during installation of expansion valve unit.

Page 17 31-5000747 Rev. 0
IMPORTANT
The Clean Air Act of 1990 bans the intentional venting
of refrigerant (CFC’s and HCFC’s) as of July 1, 1992.
Approved methods of recovery, recycling or reclaiming
must be followed. Fines and/or incarceration may be
levied for non-compliance.
IMPORTANT
If this unit is being matched with an approved line set
or indoor unit coil that was previously charged with
mineral oil, or if it is being matched with a coil which was
manufactured before January of 1999, the coil and line set
must be ushed prior to installation. Take care to empty
all existing traps. Polyol ester (POE) oils are used in GE
Appliances units charged with HFC-410A refrigerant.
Residual mineral oil can act as an insulator, preventing
proper heat transfer. It can also clog the expansion device
and reduce system performance and capacity.
Failure to properly ush the system, per this instruction
and the detailed Installation and Service Procedures
manual will void the warranty.
Leak Test Line Set and Indoor Coil
WARNING
When using a high pressure gas such as
nitrogen to pressurize a refrigeration or air
conditioning system, use a regulator that can
control the pressure down to 1 or 2 psig (6.9
to 13.8 kPa).
IMPORTANT
Leak detector must be capable of sensing HFC
refrigerant.
WARNING
Refrigerant can be harmful if it is inhaled. Refrigerant
must be used and recovered responsibly.
Failure to follow this warning may result in personal
injury or death.

AWith both manifold valves closed, connect the cylinder of HFC-410A refrigerant to the center port of the manifold gauge set. Open the valve
on the HFC-410A cylinder (vapor only).
BOpen the high pressure side of the manifold to allow HFC-410A into the line set and indoor unit. Weigh in a trace amount of HFC-410A. [A
trace amount is a maximum of two ounces (57 g) refrigerant or three pounds (31 kPa) pressure]. Close the valve on the HFC-410A cylinder
and the valve on the high pressure side of the manifold gauge set. Disconnect the HFC-410A cylinder.
CConnect a cylinder of dry nitrogen with a pressure regulating valve to the center port of the manifold gauge set.
DAdjust dry nitrogen pressure to 150 psig (1034 kPa). Open the valve on the high side of the manifold gauge set in order to pressurize the line set
and the indoor unit.
EAfter a few minutes, open one of the service valve ports and verify that the refrigerant added to the system earlier is measurable with a leak
detector.
FAfter leak testing disconnect gauges from service ports.
After the line set has been connected to the indoor and outdoor units, check the line set connections and indoor unit for leaks. Use the
following procedure to test for leaks:
AConnect an HFC-410A manifold gauge set high pressure
hose to the vapor valve service port.
NOTE — Normally, the high pressure hose is connected to
the liquid line port. However, connecting it to the vapor port
better protects the manifold gauge set from high pressure
damage.
BWith both manifold valves closed, connect the cylinder of
HFC-410A refrigerant to the center port of the manifold gauge
set.
NOTE — Later in the procedure,
the HFC-410A container will be
replaced by the nitrogen
container.

Evacuating Line Set and Indoor Coil
AOpen both manifold valves and start the vacuum pump.
BEvacuate the line set and indoor unit to an absolute pressure of 23,000 microns (29.01 inches of mercury).
NOTE — During the early stages of evacuation, it is desirable to close the manifold gauge valve at least once. A rapid rise in pressure
indicates a relatively large leak. If this occurs, repeat the leak testing procedure.
NOTE — The term absolute pressure means the total actual pressure within a given volume or system, above the absolute zero of
pressure. Absolute pressure in a vacuum is equal to atmospheric pressure minus vacuum pressure.
CWhen the absolute pressure reaches 23,000 microns (29.01 inches of mercury), perform the following:
Close manifold gauge valves
Close valve on vacuum pump
Turn off vacuum pump
Disconnect manifold gauge center port hose from vacuum pump
Attach manifold center port hose to a dry nitrogen cylinder with pressure regulator set to 150 psig (1034 kPa) and purge the hose.
Open manifold gauge valves to break the vacuum in the line set and indoor unit.
Close manifold gauge valves.
DShut off the dry nitrogen cylinder and remove the manifold gauge hose from the cylinder. Open the manifold gauge valves to release the
dry nitrogen from the line set and indoor unit.
EReconnect the manifold gauge to the vacuum pump, turn the pump on, and continue to evacuate the line set and indoor unit until the
absolute pressure does not rise above 500 microns (29.9 inches of mercury) within a 20-minute period after shutting off the vacuum pump
and closing the manifold gauge valves.
FWhen the absolute pressure requirement above has been met, disconnect the manifold hose from the vacuum pump and connect it to an
upright cylinder of HFC-410A refrigerant. Open the manifold gauge valve 1 to 2 psig in order to release the vacuum in the line set and
indoor unit.

IMPORTANT
Use a thermocouple or thermistor electronic vacuum
gauge that is calibrated in microns. Use an instrument
capable of accurately measuring down to 50 microns.
WARNING
Possible equipment damage.
Avoid deep vacuum operation. Do not use compressors
to evacuate a system. Extremely low vacuum can cause
internal arcing and compressor failure. Damage caused
by deep vacuum operation will void warranty.
Evacuating the system of non-condensables is critical for
proper operation of the unit. Non-condensables are de-
ned as any gas that will not condense under tempera-
tures and pressures present during operation of an air
conditioning system. Non-condensables and water suc-
tion combine with refrigerant to produce substances that
corrode copper piping and compressor parts.
Electrical
In the U.S.A., wiring must conform with current local codes
and the current National Electric Code (NEC). In Canada,
wiring must conform with current local codes and the cur-
rent Canadian Electrical Code (CEC).
