RECEIVING THE AIR CONDITIONER
Inspect the air conditioner. Check for concealed damage that may have occurred during shipment. Look for dents,
scratches, loose assemblies, evidence of oil, etc. Damage evident upon receipt should be noted on the freight bill.
Damage should be brought to the attention of the delivering carrier -- NOT to Pentair Equipment Protection --
within 15 days of delivery. Save the carton and packing material and request an inspection. Then file a claim with
the delivering carrier.
Pentair Equipment Protection cannot accept responsibility for freight damages; however, we will assist you in any
way possible.
HANDLING AND TESTING THE AIR CONDITIONER
If the air conditioner has been in a horizontal position, be certain it is placed in an upright, vertical or mounting
position for a minimum of five (5) minutes before operating.
Do not attempt to operate the air conditioner while it is horizontal
or on its side, back or front. The refrigeration compressor is filled
with lubricating oil. This will cause permanent damage to the air
conditioner and also voids the warranty.
CAUTION
TEST FOR FUNCTIONALITY BEFORE MOUNTING THE AIR CONDITIONER TO THE ENCLOSURE.
Refer to the nameplate for proper electrical current requirements, and then connect the power cord to a properly
grounded power supply. Minimum circuit ampacity should be at least 125% of the amperage shown in the design
data section for the appropriate model. No other equipment should be connected to this circuit to prevent
overloading.
Operate the air conditioner for five (5) to ten (10) minutes. No excessive noise or vibration should be evident
during this run period. The condenser blower (ambient air), the evaporator impeller (enclosure air), and the
compressor should be running.
Condenser air temperatures should be warmer than normal room temperatures within a few minutes. The
compressor is provided with automatic reset thermal overload protection. This thermoswitch is located and
mounted inside the plastic enclosure clipped to the compressor. The switch operates when the compressor
overheats due to clogged or dirty inlet air filter or if ambient air temperatures exceed nameplate rating or if
enclosure dissipated heat loads exceed the rated capacity of the air conditioner. The thermal overload switch will
actuate and stop compressor operation. The blowers will continue to operate and the compressor will restart
after it has cooled to within the thermal overload cut-in temperature setting.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. Inspect the air conditioner and verify correct functionality before mounting the air conditioner. See
HANDLING AND TESTING THE AIR CONDITIONER on page 3.
2. Using the cutout dimensions, See MOUNTING CUTOUT DIMENSIONS on page 5 in this manual,
prepare the air “IN” and air “OUT” openings, and mounting bolt hole pattern for the enclosure.
3. Using the gasket kit provided, install gaskets to air conditioner. See MOUNTING GASKET KIT on
page 6 for proper location.
4. Mount air conditioner on enclosure using mounting bolts and screws provided. “EZ” mount tabs
can be used to hold unit on enclosure while mounting in place. Allow unit to remain upright for a
minimum of five (5) minutes before starting. Caution! Air conditioner must be in upright position
during operation.
5. When routing the drain tube, caution should be taken to keep it from kinking or being elevated
above the exit point of the air conditioner. The drain tube must be on a continuous downward
slope. A slight elevation of the tube could result in secondary trap. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE
INSTRUCTIONS COULD RESULT IN OVERFLOWING OF THE CONDENSATE DRAIN PAN.
6. Refer to top of nameplate for electrical requirements. Connect the power cord to a properly
grounded power supply. Use of an extension cord is not recommended. Electrical circuit should be
fused with slow blow or HACR circuit breaker.
