FilterAccessEach unit is shipped with a filter bracket for side filter removal. For bottom removal push the filter up into top bracket to gain clearance of bottom bracket and remove the filter. Also, a sheet metal duct filter retainer can be fabricated when return air duct work is used.
Figure 1: Hanger Bracket Location Dimensions - Sizes 007 thru 060
Figure 2: Hanger Bracket Details - Sizes 007 thru 060
UnitLocation1. Locate the unit in an area that allows for easy
removal of the filter and access panels. Leave a minimum of 18" of clearance around the heat pump for easy removal, and to perform routine maintenance, or troubleshooting. Provide sufficient room to make water, electrical and duct connections.
2. The contractor should make sure that adequate ceiling panel access exists, including clearance for hanger brackets, duct collars and fittings at water and electrical connections.
3. Allow adequate room below the unit for a condensate trap and do not locate the unit above pipes.
4. Each unit is suspended from the ceiling by four threaded rods. The rods are attached to the unit corners by a hanger bracket through a rubber isolator.
Do not use rods smaller than shown in Figure 2. The rods must be securely anchored to the ceiling or to the bar joists.
5. Each unit is furnished with a hanger kit. The kit is shipped unassembled and includes hanger brackets, rubber isolators, washers, bolts and lock washers. Lay out the threaded rods per the dimension in Figures 1 and 2.
6. When attaching the hanger rods to the unit, a double nut is recommended since vibration could loosen a single nut. The installer is responsible for providing the hex nuts when installing hanger rods.
7. Leave minimum 3" (76 mm) extra threaded rod below the double nuts or minimum 3" (76 mm) clearance between top of unit and ceiling above to facilitate top panel removal for servicing.

Note: The information covered in this section of the blower assembly orientation is typical of McQuay units. Regardless, if you are changing end to straight or straight to end the blower assembly has to turn 90 degrees and simultaneously rotate 180 degrees to achieve the proper orientation. Not all McQuay units will have the same air discharge location but will have the same general results when following the instructions.

AdditionalInformationForInitialStart-upStandardRangeunitsCCHUnits are designed to start-up in an ambient of 50°F (10°C), with entering air at 50°F (10°C), with entering water at 70°F (21°C), with both air and water flow rates used in the ISO 13256-1 rating test, for initial start-up in winter.
Note: This is not a normal or continuous operating condition. It is assumed that such a start-up is for the purpose of bringing the building space up to occupancy temperature.
GeothermalRangeunitsCCWGeothermal heat pump units are designed to start-up in an ambient of 40°F (5°C), with entering air at 40°F (5°C), with entering water at 25°F (-4°C), with both air and water at flow rates used in the ISO 13256-1 rating test, for initial start-up in winter.
Note: This is not a normal or continuous operating condition. It is assumed that such a start-up is for the purpose of bringing the building space up to occupancy temperature.
6. Check the elevation and cleanliness of the condensate line. If the air is too dry for sufficient dehumidification, slowly pour enough water into the condensate pan to ensure proper drainage.
7. If the conditioner does not operate, check the following points:
a. Is supply voltage to the machine compatible? b. Is thermostat type appropriate? c. Is thermostat wiring correct?8. If the conditioner operates but stops after a brief
period: a. Is there proper airflow? Check for dirty filter,
incorrect fan rotation (3-phase fan motors only), or incorrect ductwork.
b. Is there proper water flow rate within temperature limits? Check water balancing; backflush unit if dirt-clogged.
9. Check for vibrating refrigerant piping, fan wheels, etc.
10. Do not lubricate the fan motor during the first year of operation as it is prelubricated at the factory.
11. Field supplied relays installed on the input terminals W1, W2, Y1, Y2 or G may introduce electrical noise. Never install relay coils in series with the inputs.
OperatingLimitsEnvironmentThis equipment is designed for indoor installation only. Sheltered locations such as attics, garages, etc., generally will not provide sufficient protection against extremes in temperature and/or humidity, and equipment performance, reliability, and service life may be adversely affected.

Note: A random start delay time between 180 and 240 seconds is generated at power up.
The IV/PR(H8) terminals of the MicroTech III unit controller are used for motorized valve / pump restart. This terminal passes a voltage signal whenever the unit compressor is turned on. This signal is detected by a pump restart relay providing a N.O. or N.C. set of contacts for heat pump loop circulation pump or motorized valve control. When used with a system control (by others), the relay operation accommodates turning off circulation pumps during unoccupied periods with a safety override dependent, at minimum, on WSHP’s need. The IV/PR(H8) terminals may be “daisy chained” between 200 units.

Each unit controller orchestrates the following unit operations:
■ Enable heating and cooling to maintain setpoint based on a room sensor.
■ Enable fan and compressor operation.■ Monitor all equipment protection controls.■ Monitor discharge air temperature.■ Monitor leaving water temperature.■ Relay status of all vital unit functions.■ Support optional control outputs.
An amber, on-board status LED aids in diagnostics by indicating the water source heat pump operating mode and alarm conditions. If there are no current alarm con-ditions, the LED will indicate the unit operating mode. If there are one or more alarm conditions present, the LED will flash to indicate an alarm condition.
MicroTech III heat pumps with a MicroTech III unit controller are LonMark certified and designed to be linked with a centralized building automation system through a LonWorks communications network for centralized scheduling and management of multiple heat pumps. Wall-mounted room sensors are available to control the heating and cooling operation of each MicroTech III Water Source Heat Pump Unit Controller. Available room sensors include: room sensor with LED status and tenant override button, room sensor with LED status, timed-override button, room sensor with LED status, timed-override button, and setpoint adjust-ment, and room sensor with LED status, timed-override button, setpoint adjustment.
The MicroTech III water source heat pump unit con-troller provides control of McQuay water source heat pumps. The controller enables the mode of operation, monitors the water and air temperatures, and indicates fault conditions. Each unit controller is factory pro-grammed, wired, and tested for effective operation of your McQuay water source heat pump.The MicroTech III water source heat pump controller uses LonWorks technology. One of the following two versions of the application software is loaded into the controller at the factory.
LonMark® 3.4 certified application code is the current standard application code for MicroTech III units.

Cooling Refrigeration CycleWhen the wall thermostat is calling for COOLING, the reversing valve directs the flow of the refrigerant, a hot gas, leaving the com-pressor to the water-to-refrigerant heat exchanger. Here the heat is removed by the water and the hot gas condenses to become a liquid. The liquid then flows through a thermal expansion metering system to the air-to-refrigerant heat exchanger coil. The liquid then evaporates becoming a gas, at the same time absorbing heat and cooling the air passing over the surfaces of the coil. The refrigerant then flows as a low pressure gas through the reversing valve and back to the suction side of the compressor to complete the cycle.
Heating Refrigeration CycleWhen the wall thermostat is calling for HEATING, the reversing valve directs the flow of the refrigerant, a hot gas, leaving the compressor to the air-to-refrigerant heat exchanger coil. Here the heat is removed by the air passing over the surfaces of the coil and the hot gas condenses to become a liquid. The liquid then flows through a capillary thermal expansion metering system to the water-to-refrigerant heat exchanger. The liquid then evaporates becoming a gas, at the same time absorbing heat and cooling the water. The refrigerant then flows as a low pressure gas through the reversing valve and back to the suction side of the compressor to complete the cycle.
