General Information
Inspection
Upon receipt of the equipment, carefully check the
shipment against the bill of lading. Make sure all units
have been received. Inspect the carton or crating of each
unit, and inspect each unit for damage. Assure the carrier
makes proper notation of any shortages or damage on all
copies of the freight bill and completes a common carrier
inspection report. Concealed damage not discovered
during unloading must be reported to the carrier within
15 days of receipt of shipment. If not led within
15 days, the freight company can deny the claim
without recourse. Note: It is the responsibility of the
purchaser to le all necessary claims with the carrier.
Storage
Equipment should be stored in its shipping carton in a
clean, dry area. Store units in an upright position at all
times. Stack units a maximum of 3 units high.
Unit Protection
Cover units on the job site with either shipping cartons,
vinyl lm, or an equivalent protective covering. Cap
the open ends of pipes stored on the job site. In areas
where painting, plastering, and/or spraying has not
been completed, all due precautions must be taken to
avoid physical damage to the units and contamination
by foreign material. Physical damage and contamination
may prevent proper start-up and may result in costly
equipment clean-up.
Examine all pipes, ttings, and valves before installing
any of the system components. Remove any dirt or trash
found in or on these components.
Pre-Installation
Installation, Operation, and Maintenance instructions
are provided with each unit. HKV units are typically
installed in a oor level closet or in a mechanical room.
The installation site chosen should include adequate
service clearance around the unit. Before unit start-
up, read all manuals and become familiar with the unit
and its operation. Thoroughly check the system before
operation.
Prepare units for installation as follows:
1. Compare the electrical data on the unit nameplate
with ordering and shipping information to verify that
the correct unit has been shipped.
2. Keep the cabinet covered with the shipping carton
until installation is complete and all plastering,
painting, etc. is nished.
3. Verify refrigerant tubing is free of kinks or dents and
that it does not touch other unit components.
4. Inspect all electrical connections. Connections must
be clean and tight at the terminals.
5. Remove any blower support packaging from mouth
of blower.
6. Loosen compressor bolts on units equipped with
compressor spring vibration isolation until the
compressor rides freely on the springs. Remove
shipping restraints.
7. Locate and verify any hanger, or other accessory kit
located in the compressor section and or the
blower section.
DO NOT store or install units in corrosive environments or
in locations subject to temperature or humidity extremes
(e.g., attics, garages, rooftops, etc.) Corrosive conditions
and high temperature or humidity can signicantly reduce
performance, reliability, and service life. Always move units
in an upright position. Tilting units on their sides may cause
equipment damage.
To avoid equipment damage, DO NOT use these units
as a source of heating or cooling during the construction
process. The mechanical components and lters used in
these units will quickly become clogged with construction
dirt and debris which may cause system damage.
To avoid the release of refrigerant into the atmosphere,
the refrigerant circuit of this unit must be serviced only by
technicians who meet local, state, and federal prociency
requirements.
All refrigerant removed from this unit must be recovered
WITHOUT EXCEPTION. Technicians must follow industry
accepted guidelines and all local, state, and federal statutes
for the recovery and disposal of refrigerants.
If a compressor is removed from this unit, system refrigerant
circuit oil will remain in the compressor. To avoid leakage of
compressor oil, the refrigerant lines of the compressor must
be sealed after it is removed.
WARNING!

IOM Instructions HKV LArge CommerCiAL Heat Controller, Inc.
Vertical Location and Access
HKV units are not designed for outdoor installation.
Locate the unit in an indoor area that allows enough
space for installation and for service personnel to perform
typical maintenance or repairs. HKV units are typically
installed in a oor level closet or in a small mechanical
room. Refer to Figure 1 for an illustration of a typical
installation. Install units with adequate clearance to allow
maintenance and servicing. Conform to the following
guidelines when selecting
unit location:
1. Provide adequate clearance for lter replacement
and drain pan cleaning. DO NOT block lter access
with piping, conduit or other materials. Refer to
submittal drawing for Vertical Unit Dimensions.
2. Provide access for fan and fan motor maintenance
and for servicing of the compressor and coils without
removal of the unit.
3. Provide an unobstructed path to the unit within the
closet or mechanical room to enable removal of the
unit if necessary.
4. Provide access to water valves and ttings, and
screwdriver access to the unit side panels, discharge
collar and all electrical connections
Figure 1: Typical Vertical Installation
Duct System Design & Installation Guidelines
The following application guidelines must be used when
installing HKV units. Failure to follow these guidelines
could result in unsatisfactory unit performance and/
or premature failure of some unit components. Heat
Controller will not warrant, or accept responsibility for
products which fail, have defects, damage or insufcient
performance as a result of improper application.
•The duct system must be sized to handle the
airow quietly and must not exceed the maximum
allowable External Static Pressure. To maximize
sound attenuation metal supply and return ducts
should include internal insulation or be of duct board
construction for the rst 10 feet or end of rst full-
sized elbow.
• Install a exible connector in all supply and return
air ducts close to the unit to inhibit sound transfer to
the ducts.
•Do not install uninsulated duct in an unconditioned
space. The unit performance will be adversely
affected and damage from condensate can occur.
•On units with multiple fan outlets a “pair of pants”
duct connection must be used for proper air balance
and distribution and to prevent fan oscillation.

•Include at least one 90-degree turn in supply air
ducts to reduce noise transmission.
•Existing ducts must be checked to insure proper
size and conguration prior to installation of any
replacement unit. Also inspect for and repair all air
leaks in existing ducts.
•Units may only be connected to a dedicated duct
system. Consult the factory BEFORE connecting
multiple units to a common duct system.
•Never connect a unit to a duct system with automatic
or modulating dampers, VAV boxes, etc. in the supply
air system. Never allow a situation where the total
unit CFM can drop below the minimum required for
proper unit operation.
Installation
•Never connect a bypass damper from the supply air
duct to the return air duct. Never allow the return air
temperature to drop below the minimum allowable
normal temperature for proper unit operation.
•Do not use HKV units for 100% outdoor air treatment.
Do not add hot-gas-bypass to “convert” a unit for
outdoor air treatment. Always use a dedicated
outdoor air unit for outdoor air treatment.
•Do not exceed 10% of the total unit CFM with
untreated outdoor air.

IOM Instructions HKV LArge CommerCiAL Heat Controller, Inc.
Installation of Supply and Return Piping
Follow these piping guidelines.
1. Install a drain valve at the base of each supply and
return riser to facilitate system ushing.
2. Install shut-off / balancing valves and unions at each
unit to permit unit removal for servicing.
3. Place strainers at the inlet of each system
circulating pump.
4. Select the proper hose length to allow slack between
connection points. Hoses may vary in length by +2%
to -4% under pressure.
5. Refer to Table 1. Do not exceed the minimum bend
radius for the hose selected. Exceeding the minimum
bend radius may cause the hose to collapse which
reduces water ow rate. Install an angle adapter to
avoid sharp bends in the hose when the radius falls
below the required minimum.
Insulation is not required on loop water piping except
where the piping runs through unheated areas or outside
the building or when the loop water temperature is below
the minimum expected dew point of the pipe ambient.
Insulation is required if loop water temperature drops
below the dew point.
Pipe joint compound is not necessary when Teon
threaded tape is pre-applied to hose assemblies or when
ared-end connections are used. If pipe joint compound
is preferred, use compound only in small amounts on the
male pipe threads of the tting adapters. Prevent sealant
from reaching the ared surfaces of the joint.
Table 1: Metal Hose Minimum Bend Radii
Figure 2: Supply/Return Hose Kit
Piping Installation
Note: When anti-freeze is used in the loop, assure
that it is compatible with Teon tape or pipe joint
compound employed.
Maximum allowable torque for brass ttings is 30 foot-
pounds [41 N-m]. If a torque wrench is not available,
tighten nger-tight plus one quarter turn. Tighten steel
ttings as necessary.
Optional pressure-rated hose assemblies designed
specically for use with Heat Controller units are available.
Similar hoses can be obtained from alternate suppliers.
Supply and return hoses are tted with swivel-joint ttings
at one end to prevent kinking during installation.
Refer to Figure 2 for an illustration of a Supply/Return
Hose Kit. External Pipe Thread (EPT) adapters secure
hose assemblies to the unit and risers. Install hose
assemblies properly and check them regularly to avoid
system failure and reduced service life.

Remove knockout on side that drain will be connected.
Remove access panels. Inside of unit, untie and uncoil
drain hose. Form trap in hose, make sure hose is not
kinked or deformed. Connect plate assembly to side
frame with 2 screws.
Outside of unit, connect 1” EPT tting to plate assembly.
Run line to building drain. Horizontal runs must be pitched
¼” per foot (10 mm per 46 cm) toward drain. Do not trap
externally.
Figure 3 illustrates a typical trap and vent used with HKV
series equipment.
Each unit must be installed with its own individual line to
the building main condensate drain line or riser. Provide a
means to ush or blow out the condensate line. DO NOT
install units with a common trap and or vent.
Always vent the condensate line when dirt or air can
collect in the line or a long horizontal drain line is
required. Also vent when large units are working against
higher external static pressure than other units connected
to the same condensate main since this may cause
poor drainage for all units on the line. WHEN A VENT
IS INSTALLED IN THE DRAIN LINE, IT MUST BE
LOCATED AFTER THE TRAP IN THE DIRECTION OF
THE CONDENSATE FLOW and opening 46” (117 cm)
minimum from bottom of unit. (Vent per code)

Water-Loop Heat Pump Applications
Commercial systems typically include a number of
units plumbed to a common piping system. Any unit
plumbing maintenance work can introduce air into the
piping system, therefore air elimination equipment is a
major portion of the mechanical room plumbing. In piping
systems expected to utilize water temperatures below
50°F [10°C], 1/2" [13mm] closed cell insulation is required
on all piping surfaces to eliminate condensation. Metal
to plastic threaded joints should never be employed due
to their tendency to leak over time. All non-distributor
class units include a low temperature-soldered bracket-
supported FPT water connection. Teon tape thread
sealant is recommended to minimize internal fouling
of the heat exchanger. Do not overtighten connections
and route piping so as not to interfere with service or
maintenance access. Hose kits are available from Heat
Controller in different congurations as shown in Figure
4 for connection between the HKV Series and the piping
system. The piping system should be ushed to remove
dirt, piping chips, and other foreign material prior to
operation. See Piping System Cleaning and Flushing
Procedures. The ow rate is usually set between 2.25
and 3.5 gpm per ton [2.9 l/m and 4.5 l/m per kW] of
cooling capacity. Heat Controller recommends 2.5 gpm
per ton [3.2 l/m per kW] for most applications of water
loop heat pumps. To insure proper maintenance and
servicing, P/T ports are imperative for temperature and
ow verication, as well as performance checks.
Cooling Tower/Boiler Systems typically utilize a
common loop maintained 60-90°F [16-32°C]. The use
of a closed circuit evaporative cooling tower with a
secondary heat exchanger between the tower and the
water loop is recommended. If an open type cooling
tower is used continuously, chemical treatment and
ltering will be necessary.

Electrical - Power Wiring
Figure 6: Typical HKV Series Line Voltage
Field Wiring
General Line Voltage Wiring
Be sure the available power is the same voltage and phase
as that shown on the unit serial plate. Line and low voltage
wiring must be done in accordance with local codes or the
National Electric Code, whichever is applicable.
HKV Power Connection
Line voltage connection is made by connecting the
incoming line voltage wires to the power block as shown in
Figure 6. Consult Table 4a and 4b for correct fuse size.
208 Volt Operation
All 208-230 Volt units are factory wired for 208 Volt. The
transformers may be switched to 230V operation as
illustrated on the wiring diagram by switching the Red
(208V) and the Orange (230V) at the contactor terminal L2.
All eld installed wiring, including electrical ground, must
comply with the National Electrical Code as well as all
applicable local codes.
Refer to the unit wiring diagrams for fuse sizes and a
schematic of the eld connections which must be made by
the installing (or electrical) contractor.
Consult the unit wiring diagram located on the inside of the
compressor access panel to ensure proper electrical hookup.
All nal electrical connections must be made with a length of
exible conduit to minimize vibration and sound transmission
to the building.
Thermostat Installation
The thermostat should be located on an interior wall in
a larger room away from supply duct drafts. Do NOT
locate the thermostat in areas subject to sunlight, drafts
or on external walls. The wire access hole behind the
thermostat may in certain cases need to be sealed to
prevent erroneous temperature measurement. Position the
thermostat backplate against the wall so that it appears
level and so the thermostat wires protrude through the
middle of the backplate. Mark the position of the backplate
mounting holes and drill holes with a 3/16" bit. Install
supplied anchors and secure plate to the wall. Thermostat
wire must be 18 AWG wire. Wire the appropriate thermostat
as shown in Figure 10 to the low voltage terminal strip
in the CXMControl as shown in Figure 7 using 18 AWG
thermostat wire of minimum length.
WARNING!
WARNING! To avoid possible injury or death due to
electrical shock, open the power supply disconnect switch
and secure it in an open position during installation.
CAUTION!
CAUTION! Use only copper conductors for eld installed
electrical wiring. Unit terminals are not designed to accept

Low Water Temperature Cutout - FP1
The CXM control allows the eld selection of source uid low
temperature cutout points. The factory setting of FP1 is set for
water (30°F [-1.1°C]). In cold temperature applications jumper
JW3 (FP1- antifreeze 10°F [-12.2°C]) should be clipped as
shown in Figure 8 to change the setting to 10°F [-12.2°C], a more
suitable temperature when using antifreezes. It should be noted
that the extended range option should be specied to operate the
HB Series at entering water temperatures below 60°F [15°C].
Accessory Connections
A terminal paralleling the compressor contactor coil has been
provided on the CXM control board. “A” has been provided to
control accessory devices, such as water valves, electronic
air cleaners, humidiers, etc. Note: This terminal must be
used only with 24 Volt signals and not line voltage sig-
nals. This signal operates with the compressor contactor. See
Figure 9 or the wiring schematic for details.
Water Solenoid Valves
When using external solenoid valves on ground water
installations, a slow closing valve may be desired. Figure 9
illustrates a typical slow closing water control valve wiring
which will limit wasted water during a lockout condition. A slow

closing valve may be required to prevent water hammer.
When using an AVM -Taco Slow Closing valve on HKV
Series equipment Figure 10 wiring should be utilized. The
valve takes approximately 60 seconds to open (very little
water will ow before 45 seconds) and it activates the
compressor only after the valve is completely opened (by
closing its end switch). Only relay or triac based electronic
thermostats should be used with the AVM valve. When
wired as shown, the valve will operate properly with the
following notations:
1-The valve will remain open during a unit lockout.
2-The valve will draw approximately 25-35 VA through the
“Y” signal of the thermostat. Note: This can overheat the
anticipators of electromechanical thermostats. Therefore
only relay or triac based thermostats should be used.

Airow and External Static Pressure
Selection Adjustment
The HKV Series is available with standard, low, and high
static options. These options will substitute a different
blower drive sheave for each static range. In addition
certain static ranges may require the optional large fan
motor. Please specify static range and motor horsepower
when ordering. See model nomenclature.
Sheave Adjustment
The HKV Series is supplied with variable sheave drive
on the fan motor to adjust for differing airows at various
ESP conditions. Select an airow requirement on the left
side of the table, then move horizontally to right under
the required ESP. Note the sheave turns open, rpm and
horsepower for that condition. Fully closed the sheave
will produce the highest static capability (higher rpm). To
adjust sheave position: loosen belt tension and remove
belt, loosen set screw on variable sheave (on fan motor)
and open sheave to desired position. Retighten set
screw and replace belt and set belt tension as below.
Belt Tensioning
An overly loose belt will, upon motor start, produce a
slippage 'squeel' and cause premature belt failure and
or intermittent airow. An overly tight belt can cause
premature motor or blower bearing failure.
Belt Tensioning Procedure - HKV
Blower motors for HKV models are slide base mounted.
To adjust the belt tension:
1. Loosen the two (4) bolts that lock the base to the slide
rails.
2. Insert a socket into the opening at the front of the base
assembly.
3. Turn counter clock wise to tighten or clock wise to
loosen the belt.
4. The belt should be tensioned using a tension gauge
method such as the Browning Belt Tensioner to set
proper belt tension (see next page).
5. After belt tension is set secure the (4) locking bolts.
Notes:
- Motor position should not need adjustment.
- Motor sheave position is at mid position of each sheave.
Thus the motor sheave is typically 2.5 turns open on a 5
turn sheave.

IOM Instructions HKV LArge CommerCiAL Heat Controller, Inc.
Tensioning V-Belt Drives
General rules of tensioning
1. Ideal tension is the lowest tension at which the belt will not slip under
peak load conditions.
2. Check tension frequently during the first 24-48 hours of operation.
3. Over tensioning shortens belt and bearing life.
4. Keep belts free from foreign material which may cause slip.
5. Make V-drive inspection on periodic basis. Tension when slipping.
Never apply belt dressing as this willl damage the belt and cause
early failure.
Tension Measurement Procedure
1. Measure the belt span (see sketch).
2. Position bottom of the large “O” ring on the span scale at the measured belt span.
3. Set the small “O” ring on the deflection force scale to zero.
4. Place the tension checker squarely on one belt at the center of the belt span. Apply a force on the
plunger and perpendicular to the belt span until the bottom of the large “O” ring is even with the
top of the next belt or with the bottom of a straight edge laid across the sheaves.
5. Remove the tension checker and read the forct applied from the bottom of the small “O” ring on
the deflection force scale.
6. Compare the force you have applied with the values given in the table below. The force should be
between the minimum and maximum shown. The maximum value is shown for “New Belt” and
new belts should be tensioned at this value to allow for expected tension loss. Used belts should
be maintained at the minimum value as indicated in the table below.
NOTE: The ratio of deflection to belt span is 1:64.
