Page 6: Installation
1.0 INSTALLATION There is no intent on the part of Data Aire, Inc. to defi ne local codes or statutes which may supersede common trade practices. The manufacturer assumes no responsibility for their interpretation. Consult local building codes and the National Electrical Code for special installation requirements. -
Page 7: Horizontal Airfl Ow Units
1.3.1 Horizontal Airfl ow Units All LCS units have horizontal airfl ow confi guration with a 29.5” tall evaporator section. Duct collars are factory provided for the supply and return air. Four threaded support rods must be securely attached to the building structure. Two fi eld provided support channels connect to the pairs of threaded support rod. -
Page 8: Storage
It is the responsibility of the installing contractor to return the start-up sheet and warranty registration card to Data Aire for proper activation of the unit warranty. Failure to do so may cause delays and in some cases void the warranty. -
Page 9: Piping
Data Aire does not assume this responsibility. The chart covers distances up to 200 equivalent feet. For installations greater than this distance, consult ASHRAE or similar references. -

Page 12: Water/Glycol Cooled Unit Piping
Water/Glycol Cooled Unit Piping The required fi eld installed condenser water pipe sizes may or may not be the same as the connection sizes at the evaporator or fl uid cooler. (Refer to 2.1.4 for connection sizing.) This will depend on the length of pipe and the calculated pressure drop of peripheral components. -
Page 13: Auxiliary Chilled Water Coil Piping
Auxiliary Chilled Water Coil Piping Units with an Auxiliary Chilled Water cooling coil require a separate source of chilled water. These chilled water connection sizes will be equal to the condenser water connection sizes on the chart in Section 2.1.4. Units with an Energy Saver cooling coil typically have shared piping with the condenser supply and therefore do not require a separate water source. -
Page 14: Leak Testing
Leak Testing No installation is complete until the entire system has been thoroughly checked for leaks. This includes checking refrigerant tubing, fl are fi ttings, pressure controls, shrader fi ttings and compressor rotolock service valves. Check both fi eld and factory connections. In addition to the refrigeration system, check all condenser water lines, humidifi... -
Page 15: Electrical Connections
On most remote heat exchangers the terminals will be #39 and #40. All control wiring on Data Aire equipment is 24 VAC. Condensing units (compressors mounted in condenser) typically require more wires. Refer to wiring diagrams in the unit. -
Page 16: Remote Shutdown
Remote Shutdown Every Data Aire evaporator has remote shutdown contacts points available. This is intended for a fi eld supplied dry contact or switch to be wired across two terminals. When the contact or switch opens, the control circuit power is interrupted and the unit shuts down, including the control panel. -
Page 17: Installation Of Remote Outdoor Heat Exchanger
4.0 INSTALLATION OF REMOTE OUTDOOR HEAT EXCHANGER Air cooled condensers and fl uid coolers have individual Installation, Operation and Maintenance manuals which should be referred to for more complete details. Rigging This section covers outdoor condensers/condensing units and fl uid coolers. Outdoor heat exchangers should be moved to their (typically rooftop) mounting location using a crane or fork lift. -
Page 18: Electrical Service
Noise factors should be also considered when locating an air cooled heat exchanger. Proximity to windows, walls, and surrounding structures can cause objections by the occupants. An acoustical expert should be consulted when noise is of a particular concern. Air cooled heat exchangers should be placed at a level that is higher than the indoor evaporator. -

Typical settings for the ambient thermostats are as follows: Number of fans Header fan Fan 2 Fan 3 Fan 4 Fan 5 65° 75° 65° 75° 85° 65° 65° 85° 75° 50° Fluid Coolers - Model DAFC 4.6.1 Fluid-Sensing Thermostats Fluid cooler fan motors are cycled on and off by individual water-sensing thermostats strapped to the leaving water header. -
Page 20: Charging
It is likely that more refrigerant will be required to complete the charging procedure. Make sure all hoses are properly purged. Review the model number carefully because LCS units are available with either single or dual compressors. Before starting a compressor, the crankcase heater should be energized for a minimum of 12 hours to reduce the possibility of liquid slugging on start-up. -
Page 21: Fan Speed Control System Charging
A system charged to a clear sight glass is often overcharged. 5.2.2. Fan Speed Control System Charging The standard outdoor air cooled condenser for Data Aire equipment is a Fan Speed Control system. After the fi eld refrigerant piping is properly completed, connect the refrigerant drum to the low side and charge with vapor. -

the refrigerant tank and set it for liquid feed. Open the refrigerant tank valve and purge the line a the manifold. Open the high side valve on the manifold only and allow the refrigerant to fl ow until the system pressure equalizes. At this point the system will have 78 - 85% of the total refrigerant charge. -

should be 33° F or higher. The superheat at the compressor suction line at least 6 inches away from the compressor should be 8-15° F. Field charging water/glycol systems should be done by referring to the unit electrical nameplate for the factory charge. -
Page 24: High Pressure Cutout Switch
5.5.2. High Pressure Cutout Switch Each refrigerant circuit is protected by a high head pressure cutout switch with a manual reset button. The cutout pressure rating for refrigerant R-407c is 400 psi. Physical location is near the compressor which may be either in the evaporator or the condensing section. 5.5.3. -

There is a separate manual that goes into extensive detail regarding functions, features, programming and troubleshooting. The Mini dap4 microprocessor controller has an entire manual dedicated to its use and operation. -
Page 26: Wiring Diagrams
7.4 Wiring Diagrams Every Data Aire evaporator, condenser, condensing unit or fl uid cooler comes with a wiring diagram. These diagrams are ‘ladder”- type schematics intended for service personnel. The intent is to allow the technician to understand the wiring details associated with the electrical components and how they interface with the controls as well as peripheral equipment, including secondary heat exchangers. -
Page 27: Regular Maintenance Items
8.3 Bearings LCS units with either one (1) and two (2) HP motors have permanent lubricated bearings. Motors of three (3) HP and above have a pillow block bearing that must be greased quarterly, or as needed. -
Page 28: Fuses
Fuses Always replace fuses with those of the equivalent rating with regard to: 1) amperage, 2) voltage, and 3) speed. For instance compressors and motors are inductive loads which require time delay fuses. Electric reheat and humidifi ers are resistive loads requiring fast acting fuses. Heating Elements Heating elements do not normally require maintenance. -
Page 29: Warranty
9.0 Warranty Policy Seller warrants its equipment to Buyer to be free from defects in material and workmanship for a period of eighteen (18) months from date of shipment, as long as equipment is utilized under normal conditions and service and is properly installed; however, the warranty shall not be applicable to any of the following items: refrigerant, belts, fi... -
