Table 3: SEHX/CEHX/SCWE/CCWE/SDXW/CDXW/SCWW/CCWW Model Number Nomenclature
Location
Access for servicing is an important factor when selecting the
location of an air handler. Provide a minimum of 30 inches under
the air handler for access to the control box, heating elements,
water pump, blower, and air filters. The air handler can be serviced
entirely from the bottom, including replacing the air filter on
models equipped with a louvered ceiling access panel with an
integrated filter rack.
NOTE: The air handler is designed for horizontal applications only
and is therefore not designed to be installed in a closet or flush
mounted in a wall in an upflow vertical position.
Location is usually predetermined. Check with the homeowner
or general contractor for predetermined installation plans. If
location has not been decided, consider the following in choosing
a suitable location.
1. Select a location with adequate structural support, space for
service access, and clearance for return and supply duct
connections. The air handler is designed to fit in a 12” high drop
down space (furred-in area).
2. Normal operating sound levels may be objectionable if the air
handler is placed directly over or under some rooms such as
bedrooms, study, etc.
3. Locate the air handler where the supply and return air ducts can
provide even air distribution to and from the living spaces.
4. Locate the air handler where the electrical supply wiring can
be easily routed from main electrical panel to the air handler
and where electrical wiring will not be damaged.
5. Supply power wiring may be installed in a flexible conduit
or armored cable. The installer must refer to National Electrical
Code (NFPA 70), Canadian Electrical Code, Part I (CSA C22.2),
ANSI/NFPA No. 70 and/or any local codes to ensure supply
wiring complies with all applicable codes.
6. Locate appliance where thermostat wiring can be easily
routed from the thermostat to the air handler and where the
wiring will not be damaged. Make sure the wiring has enough
length so it will not to block access to any components that
may need to be replaced or serviced.
7. Locate the air handler where refrigerant lines can be easily
routed from the air handler to the outdoor unit.
8. Primary and secondary drain lines must be routed so air filter
replacement is not obstructed.
9. The blow-thru design of this air handler will cause the exterior surface
of cabinet to sweat when installed in a non-conditioned space such
as an attic or garage. The installer must provide protection such
as a full size auxiliary drain pan under any unit installed in a non
conditioned space to prevent damage to the building structure from
condensation runoff.
Clearances
This air handler is approved for 0 inches of clearance to
combustible material on any part of the air handler exterior
casing and the inlet or outlet ducts (See Table 12). A clearance
of 30 inches below the air handler is required for the service
access panel to swing open (See Figure 3).

NON-METALLIC RETURN DUCTS MAY NOT BE ALLOWED IN
SOME STATES, COUNTIES, OR CITIES.
CHECK ALL STATE, LOCAL AND FIRE CODES TO DETERMINE
IF NON-METTALIC RETURN DUCTS ARE ALLOWED.
FIRE HAZARD:
NON-METALIC DUCTS CAN COLLECT DUST AND DEBRIS
WHICH CAN RESULT IN A FIRE HAZARD. BE SURE TO
THOROUGHLY CLEAN THE DUCT SYSTEM ANNUALLY TO
REMOVE ALL DUST AND DEBRIS.
MORTEX PRODUCTS INC. 501 TERMINAL RD FORT WORTH, TX 76106 Page 7
SECTION 4: RETURN AND SUPPLY AIR REQUIREMENTS
RETURN AIR REQUIREMENTS
Provisions shall be made to permit air in the conditioned space to
return to the air handler. Failure to provide means for adequate
return air will result in reduced airflow through the air handler
causing improper heating and cooling of the living space.
Reduced airflow may also cause the cooling coil to freeze up and
the electric heat limit(s) to cycle, resulting in premature heating
element failure.
Uncased Air Handler – Return Air
If a louvered service access panel with an integral filter (See Figure
4) is not used, a return air duct should be routed between the
ceiling joists from the furred-in area around the air handler to a
return air filter grille located in the ceiling. The return air grille
must never be located in a closet.
NOTE: The return air must be filtered to prevent a buildup of lint,
dust, and debris on the coil surface.
Cased Air Handler – Return Air
A cased air handler can utilize a louvered ceiling access panel
with an integral filter (See Figure 4) as a means of returning the
conditioned air from the conditioned space to the air handler.
A cased air handler may also utilize a non-louvered ceiling access
panel with a return air duct attached to the return air opening in
the air handler. If a return air duct is used, the return air opening
knock-out must be removed to allow the return air to enter the
air handler through the return air opening. The return air duct
may consist of an elbow that drops directly into a return air filter
grille in the ceiling or the return duct may be routed between the
ceiling joists to a return air filter grille located in the ceiling away
from the air handler.
NOTE: The return air must be filtered to prevent a buildup of lint,
dust, and debris on the coil surface.
Return Air Filter Location
Horizontal air handlers are not factory equipped with an air filter.
The air filter can be installed in the filter rack of the louvered
ceiling access panel (See Figure 4 and Table 13) or it may be
located remotely in a ceiling mounted return air filter grille. If
a return duct and return air filter grille is used, a non-louvered
ceiling access panel will be required.
The louvered ceiling panel air filter size for the SEHX, CEHX, SCWE
and the CCWE models is 20”x 20” x 1”.
The recommended minimum filter sizes for a return air filter grille
is shown below.
Standard Throw-Away Air Filter @ 300 ft/min or Less
600 CFM = 16”x 20”x 1”
700 CFM = 20”x 20”x 1”
800 CFM = 20”x 20”x 1”
900 CFM = 20”x 24”x 1”
1000 CFM = 20”x 24”x 1”
NOTE: Pleated filters are not recommended due to their higher
pressure drop.
Figure 3: Clearance for Service Access
Figure 4: Ceiling Access Panel

Extreme caution must be taken that no internal damage will
result if screws or holes are drilled into the cabinet.
The air handler and enclosure must be covered during the
drywall installation, texturing, and painting process to
prevent spray and debris from collecting on and entering
the air handler and enclosure.
MORTEX PRODUCTS INC. 501 TERMINAL RD FORT WORTH, TX 76106 Page 8
IMPACT HAZARD
Use extreme caution when removing the ceiling
access panel screws. The panel is secured to the
frame assembly with the thumb screws. Once the
thumb screws have been removed, the ceiling
access panel will swing down rapidly and can
injure anyone standing underneath the panel. The
panel must be supported from underneath as it
swings downward to prevent injury.
The louvers can also have sharp edges which can
cut hands or fingers. Wearing gloves is recommended
when servicing the horizontal air handler.

SUPPLY AIR REQUIREMENTS
The horizontal air handler can be mounted into the ceiling to
allow horizontal left supply air flow or horizontal right supply air
flow. The supply air plenum is attached and secured to the air
handler duct flanges using screws. Use a non-tape sealant such
as mastic or an aerosol sealant to seal the plenum to the air
handler to prevent air leakage. The supply plenum must be the
same size as the supply air opening.
The entire supply duct system must be designed for a total of
0.20”W.C. static pressure drop or less and each individual duct
must be sized to deliver the proper amount of air to each room
of the conditioned space. Holes cut in the supply plenum for
ducts must be the same size as the supply ducts. Use a duct
starting collar to attach the ducts to the plenum. Use a non-tape
sealant such as mastic or an aerosol sealant to seal the ducts to
the plenum to prevent air leakage.
If the supply duct system is installed in an non-conditioned space,
the duct system must be insulated and installed in accordance
with local codes.
SECTION 5: AIR HANDLER INSTALLATION
Ceiling Installation
The area in the ceiling where the air handler is to be located
should have a framed in structure so the air handler can be
properly mounted and secured. The inside height of the area
must be 12 inches. Prior to installing the air handler, holes must

DX Cooling / Chilled Water Cooling
DX Refrigerant Piping:
Air handlers with DX type evaporator coils require liquid and
suction piping sized in accordance with the outdoor unit
manufacturer’s instructions. The DX coil has sweat copper
connections. Refrigerant lines should be soldered with silver
solder or high temperature brazing alloy. The suction line must
be insulated to prevent condensate from forming and dripping
off. Armaflex (or equivalent) with 3/8” (1 cm) minimum wall
thickness is recommended. In severe conditions, such as hot
or high humidity areas, insulation with 1/2”(1.3 cm) minimum
wall thickness may be required. If the outdoor unit is installed
above air handler, oil traps are required at equal intervals along
suction line (See Figure 7). Horizontal suction lines should slope
downward 1 inch for every 20 feet toward the outdoor unit.
Flow dry nitrogen through refrigerant lines during the soldering
operation to prevent oxidation of the inside surface of the
copper tubing which can result in debris plugging the TXV or
orifice screen.
• Install 1 oil trap for a height difference of 15 ft to 25 ft
(4.6 m to 7.6 m) between indoor and outdoor units.
• Install 2 oil trap for a height difference of 26 ft to 50 ft
(7.9 m to 15.2 m) between indoor and outdoor units.
• Install 3 oil trap for a height difference of 51 ft to 100 ft
(15.5 m to 39.5 m) between indoor and outdoor units.
• Install 4 oil trap for a height difference of 101 ft to 150 ft
(30.8 m to 45.7 m) between indoor and outdoor units.

Figure 8: TXV Sensing Bulb Placement
SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR COILS WITH
THERMAL EXPANSION VALVES (TXV)
The thermal expansion valve (TXV) used in this air handler has a
built-in check valve making it heat pump capable. The external
equalizer line attached to the TXV has a female flare nut with built
in Schrader valve depressor that attaches to the Schrader valve
port located on the coil suction manifold.
Figure 9: TXV Sensing Bulb Location
The best location for the TXV sensing bulb is on a horizontal
section of the suction line tube and positioned between 10
o’clock and 2 o’clock on the tube. (See Figures 8 and 9).
NOTE: The sensing bulb must never be located at the bottom of
the suction line due to the possibility of oil and refrigerant laying
in the bottom of the pipe causing false signals.
The sensing bulb must be able to sense the temperature of the
superheated suction vapor and must therefore not be located in
a position that will expose it to extraneous heat/cold. The sensing
bulb must be insulated to isolate it from the surrounding air. The
TXV must be the proper size and type to achieve the performance
ratings of the system.
NOTE: If a non-bleed type TXV is used, the outdoor unit may
require a hard start kit to allow the compressor to start under load.
How the TXV Controls Superheat
The TXV is a precision device designed to regulate the rate at
A TXV has a thermostatic element separated from the valve body
by a diaphragm designed to regulate the rate at which refrigerant
flows into the evaporator.

MORTEX PRODUCTS INC. 501 TERMINAL RD FORT WORTH, TX 76106 Page 11
which liquid refrigerant flows into the evaporator. This controlled
flow is necessary to provide optimum performance and to
prevent the return of liquid refrigerant to the compressor.
The TXV separates the high pressure and low-pressure sides of a
refrigeration or air conditioning system. Liquid refrigerant enters
the TXV under high pressure, but the pressure is reduced when
the flow of the refrigerant is restricted by an internal moving pin
and port.
It is important to remember that the TXV only controls the level
of superheat of the refrigerant in the suction line. The TXV is not
designed to control air temperature, head pressure, capacity,
suction pressure, or humidity. Attempts to adjust the TXV to
control any of these system variables will lead to poor system
performance and possible compressor failure.
The TXV responds to the temperature of refrigerant gas as it
leaves the evaporator. This temperature is detected by the sensing
bulb which is located near the evaporator outlet. The TXV also
responds to the refrigerant pressure within the evaporator, which
is transmitted to the TXV by an equalizer tube connected to the
coil suction manifold. By responding to these variables, the TXV
maintains a predetermined superheat level exiting the evaporator
which maintains proper system stability, performance, and
reliability.
TXV TROUBLESHOOTING
The thermostatic expansion valve (TXV) is like the carburetor in
a car engine. It opens and closes to allow the correct amount of
refrigerant flow through the system. When the TXV isn’t working
properly, the capacity and efficiency of the system is reduced. If a
faulty TXV is suspected, perform the following tests:
Connect refrigerant gauges to the system and check that the
refrigerant pressures, liquid subcooling and suction superheat
levels are correct according to the outdoor unit charging chart.
Subcooling at the outdoor unit liquid service valve is normally
around 10°F and superheat at the outdoor unit suction service
valve is normally between 8-12°F, but these can vary depending
on the manufacturer and model of the outdoor unit.
Check to see if the indoor airflow through the system is correct.
Check to see if the indoor and outdoor coils and indoor air filters
are dirty. Clean dirty coils and clean/replace dirty air-filters as
necessary before measuring air-flow and checking pressures,
superheat, and subcooling.
Make sure the refrigerant charge in the system is correct. This
step may require weighing the refrigerant in the system. Once
refrigerant charge weight has been adjusted as necessary, recheck
the pressures, subcooling and superheat. If these values are still
not correct, the TXV may be defective or the TXV inlet strainer or
the liquid line filter dryer is plugged with debris.
A good way to determine if the TXV is defective is to remove the
TXV’s sensing bulb from the suction line and check the pressures,
subcooling, superheat again. No change in the pressures,
subcooling, and superheat levels is an indication the TXV is
defective. Another test that can be performed is to place the
sensing bulb in ice water and recheck the pressures, superheat,
and subcooling levels. If these values don’t change, the TXV is
likely defective.
Additional TXV Troubleshooting Information
Low Suction Pressure – High Superheat
POSSIBLE CAUSES:
1. Undersized TXV
2. TXV superheat adjustment too high
3. High indoor coil pressure drop due to internal restriction
4. TXV sensing bulb installed on bottom of suction line
5. Restricted or capped TXV external equalizer tube
6. Improper TXV external equalizer location (must be located
on suction manifold after the last feeder tube)
7. Low refrigerant charge
8. Plugged liquid line filter dryer
9. Plugged TXV inlet strainer
10. Low outdoor ambient temperature
High Suction Pressure – Low Superheat
POSSIBLE CAUSES:
1. Oversized TXV
2. TXV seat leakage
3. TXV superheat adjustment too low
4. Improper TXV sensing bulb installation
a. Poor thermal contact with suction line (loose clamp)
b. Uninsulated sensing bulb
c. Warm location
5. Bad compressor (low capacity)
6. Incorrectly located external equalizer line (must be located on
suction manifold after the last feeder tube)
Low Suction Pressure – Low Superheat
POSSIBLE CAUSES:
1. Low system load:
a. Insufficient indoor airflow
b. Dirty indoor air filters
c. Return air too cold
d. Indoor coil icing or frosting
2. Poor air distribution over indoor coil
3. Improper indoor/outdoor coil internal volume balance on
heat pump systems (improper air handler/outdoor unit
match up; indoor coil too big or too small causing incorrect
refrigerant charge balance between cooling and heating modes.
4. Oil trapped in indoor coil
Things to Check Before Replacing TXV
1. Slowly loosen the flare nut on the TXV external equalizer
connected to the suction line port with a flare nut. If there is a
large pressure release when the nut has been loosened,
tighten the nut. If this results in a slight pressure release or no
pressure release; the Schrader valve stem is not being
depressed. Install an anti-blow back fitting to the external
equalizer line of the TXV to depress the Schrader valve stem
and check for proper operation of the TXV.
2. Remove the sensing bulb from the suction line and hold in
a warm hand. The high side pressure should drop and low side
pressure should increase as the TXV opens. Place the sensing
bulb in ice water. The high side pressure should increase and
the low side pressure should decrease as the TXV closes. If the
pressures do not change when these tests are conducted, the
TXV is faulty.

are normally available in kit form for field installation. Follow the
installation instructions provided with the TXV kit. The TXV must

Field Installed TXV Installation Procedure
1. Remove the cap on Schrader valve port on coil suction
manifold.
2. Depress the Schrader valve to relieve the pressure inside
the coil.
3. Only after coil pressure has been relieved, turn the female
swivel nut counter-clockwise to separate it from the
distributor.
4. Remove the piston orifice from the flowrator distributor
assembly using a small diameter wire or paper clip.
5. As shown in Figure 10, the TXV assembly must be installed
between the distributor and the liquid line connector.
6. Attach the TXV by connecting the female swivel nut on TXV
outlet to the flowrator distributor (aligning Teflon seal first)
and torque swivel nut to 10-30 ft. lbs.
7. Attach the liquid line connector with female swivel nut to
male rotalock fitting on TXV inlet (aligning Teflon seal first)

8. Attach equalizer tubing with 1/4”female flare nut that includes
depressor to the male Schrader port on the coil suction
manifold and torque nut to 10-30 ft. lbs.
9. Install the TXV bulb to the suction line using the two bulb
clamps furnished with kit.
a. The sensing bulb should be installed on a horizontal run of
the suction line if possible and should be positioned
between 10 o’clock and 2 o’clock as shown in Figure 8.
b. If the sensing bulb is installed on a vertical run of the suction
line, the bulb should be located at least 6 inches away from
any bend and on the side of the tube that is above the
inside of the bend. On vertical run bulb installations, the
bulb should be positioned with the bulb capillary tube at
the top.
c . The bulb should be insulated using thermal insulation
to protect it from the effect of the surrounding ambient
temperature.

SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR COILS WITH
FLOWRATOR DISTRIBUTOR ASSEMBLIES
The sizing of the orifice piston should be based on the rated
capacity of the outdoor unit and air handler match-up.
Summit provides capacity performance ratings that match both
same size and upsized air handlers with specific manufacturer’s
outdoor units. Consult the local Summit distributor for the proper
size orifice piston to be used for a specific outdoor unit model
number. The factory installed orifice piston size is marked on the
flowrator distributor assembly and the air handler carton.
Failure to install the proper size orifice piston can lead to poor
system performance and possible compressor damage. A
variation of one piston size smaller or larger is not normally
critical. Mortex/Summit reserves the right to substitute a factory
installed piston one size smaller or greater if the piston size
ordered is out of stock. A selection of replacement orifice pistons
is available from the local Summit distributor.
ORIFICE PISTON REPLACEMENT
If the flowrator is being used instead of a TXV, the piston must be
installed oriented as shown in Figure 11 in the distributor body
and the existing liquid line attached to the flowrator distributor.
1. Remove the cap on Schrader valve port on coil manifold.
2. Depress the Schrader valve to relieve the pressure inside the coil.
3. Only after coil pressure has been relieved, turn the female
swivel nut counter-clockwise to separate it from the distributor.
4. Replace the orifice piston with the correct size piston for the
application. Make sure the tapered end of the piston is facing
the feeder tubes on the distributor body.
5. Turn the female swivel nut on clockwise the flowrator
distributor (aligning Teflon seal first) and torque swivel nut to
10-30 ft. lbs.
6. After completing the installation of the correct size orifice
piston, leak check the flowrator distributor fitting and
thoroughly evacuate the system through the service fittings on
the outdoor unit liquid and suction service valves.

FIELD INSTALLED SUPPLEMENTAL HEAT LOCKOUT (SHL) KIT
A field installed supplemental heat lockout (SHL) kit must be
used with SEHX and CEHX models equipped with electric heat
when used in a heat pump system. The purpose of the SHL is to
prevent excessive refrigerant pressures due to the indoor coil
being located downstream of the electric heating elements. If
the electric heater is energized while the heat pump is operating
in the heat mode, the additional heat imparted to the indoor
coil by the electric heater elements can cause the refrigerant
pressures to be excessively high. The SHL temperature switch
contacts will open and lock out the electric heat when the hot gas
line temperature entering the indoor coil reaches approximately
120°F. The contacts will close when the hot gas line temperature
falls to approximately 109°F which will allow the electric heat
to operate.
Installation of the SHL Kit
After brazing and leak testing of the refrigerant lines is
completed and the lines have sufficiently cooled, mount the
SHL temperature sensor securely to the suction/hot gas
refrigerant line that connects to the coil manifold (larger line;
suction in cooling mode; hot gas in heating mode) with the 2
plastic wire ties provided in the kit assuring that the temperature
switch has good contact with the refrigerant line and is not
located where it may be damaged. Wrap the sensor on the
refrigerant line using the insulation tape provided in the kit and
secure with the insulation with the 2 plastic wire ties provided in
the kit (See Figure 12).
SHL Switch Wiring:
One of the SHL switch pigtail leads is connected to the air handler
white pigtail wire with a wire nut (See Figure 13). The other SHL
switch pigtail lead is connected to the white thermostat wire from
the thermostat W terminal and secured with a wire nut. Check the
outdoor unit and thermostat wiring diagrams to assure the SHL
will prevent the supplemental electric heat from being energized
when the switch contacts are open.

This air handler must not be located where water can cause
damage to the adjacent area if the condensate drain pan
should overflow or if any condensate drain connections
should leak.
When such locations can’t be avoided, a suitable auxiliary
drain pan must be installed under the air handler and
connected to an adequate drain. The auxiliary drain pan
should be at least 2” greater in length and width than the
air handler dimensions and should be at least 1.5” deep.
The manufacturer of this air handler is not liable for any
water damage related to the air handler.
Toxic chemicals used for treatment of boilers or non-
potable water heating appliances shall never be introduced
into a potable water space heating system.
MORTEX PRODUCTS INC. 501 TERMINAL RD FORT WORTH, TX 76106 Page 14
Figure 15: Typical Condensate Trap
CONDENSATE DRAIN PIPING
The blow-through coil design of this air handler will create
positive pressure in the condensate drain system. To prevent air
from being blown out of the condensate drain, it is recommended
that a trap with an anti-siphon air vent be installed as shown in
Figure 15. Piping from the condensate drain connection must
have a 2-inch minimum trap and must provide adequate slope for
drainage to a visible area.
NOTE: A condensate trap may be required by local codes.
Installing a trapped secondary drain line is also recommended
to prevent condensate pan overflow should the primary drain
become clogged. A secondary drain float switch that will shut the
cooling system off should the primary drain become clogged may
be installed instead of a secondary drain line.
NOTE: Do not pipe the primary and secondary drains together. If
the secondary drain is not used, it must be capped.
The air handler cooling DX coil condensate drain pan has one ¾”
NPT female primary and one ¾” NPT female secondary connection
located on the same side as the refrigerant line connections (See
Figure 16). The other side of the condensate drain pan has one ¾”
NPT female primary drain connection and no secondary
drain connection.
NOTE: The condensate drain connections are located on the
condensate drain pan inside the cabinet of a cased air handler.
Condensate drain piping must enter through the holes in the
cabinet and then connect to the drain pan connections within the
cabinet. Refer to Figure1 for condensate drain pipe entrances.
Figure 16: Condensate Drain Pan
Hot Water Piping
All water piping must be supported independent of the air
handler to prevent vibration and stress on the coil headers.
Swing joints or flexible fittings must be provided to absorb
expansion and contraction of the piping. Rigid piping reduces
the effectiveness of vibration isolators. Water pipes must be
adequately vented in order to prevent air binding. The air handler
is equipped with manual air vents mounted on the coil manifold.
Total hot water piping length should not exceed 140 feet. All
hot water piping to the coil should be 3/4 inch ID (7/8 inch OD)
copper. CPVC and PEX piping may also be used in applications
where the water temperature does not exceed 150°F. It is
recommended a water isolation valve and a union be placed in
the water lines to and from the coil, near the coil, for serviceability,
repair or replacement of the coil. A thermal expansion tank is
recommended on any closed loop system to relieve thermal
expansion due to pressure increase.
After piping has been installed, allow the system to fill with water
and check connections for leaks. To ensure complete filling of the
system, follow the Filling Hydronic Heating System With Water,
Purging Air From System, and System Startup procedure found in
SECTION 11: Final System Checkout and Startup in
these instructions.
SECTION 7: HOT AND CHILLED WATER
“Massachusetts requires an electronically controlled
pump timer that activates the pump every 6 hours
for 60 seconds and limits the distance between the
water heater and the air handler to 50 feet max.”
Chilled Water Piping
Supply and return chilled water piping to the coil should be ¾
inch ID for models with a capacity up to 42,000 BTU/H and 1 inch
on models with a capacity greater than 42,000 BTU/H. Water pip-
ing must always be connected so that the entering water is on the
leaving side of the coil for best performance.

When system requires water at temperatures higher
than required for other uses, a means such as a mixing
valve must be installed to temper the water temperature
for those uses in order to reduce the potential of a scald
hazard.
The air handler must not be located where water will cause
damage to the adjacent area should any water connection leak.
When such locations can’t be avoided, a suitable auxiliary
drain pan must be installed under the air handler and
connected to an adequate drain. The auxiliary drain pan
should be at least 2 inches greater in length and width
than the air handler dimensions and should be at least 1.5
inches deep.
The manufacturer of this air handler is not liable for any
water damage related to the air handler.
Hot water from a boiler used to satisfy heating
requirements can be heated to temperatures of 180°F.
Parts containing water this hot can scald very quickly.
Use extreme caution when servicing or performing
maintenance on any parts containing hot water.
