How to Install the G28 Air Conditioner

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for installing and configuring the G28 Air Conditioner, ensuring proper setup and functionality.

Estimated time: 45m

Tools needed:

Screwdriver, Wire strippers, Multimeter

Supplies needed:

Mounting screws, Terminal connectors, Mounting gasket

  1. Inspect the air conditioner

    Check for any visible damage and ensure the unit is functioning properly before installation. Do not operate the unit if it has been in a horizontal position; allow it to stand upright for at least five minutes.

  2. Prepare the mounting area

    Apply the mounting gasket to the air conditioner to ensure a watertight seal. Carefully position the air conditioner on the enclosure without dragging it to avoid damaging the gasket.

  3. Secure the air conditioner

    Using mounting screws, attach the air conditioner to the enclosure. Start the screws by hand to prevent cross-threading, then tighten them with a wrench or ratchet driver.

  4. Connect the power supply

    Wire the air conditioner to a properly grounded power supply according to the nameplate specifications. Ensure that the circuit is fused with a slow-blow or HACR circuit breaker.

  5. Wire the thermostat

    If required, connect the remote thermostat outputs to the appropriate terminals on the 24 VAC terminal strip, following the wiring diagram provided.

  6. Set the thermostat

    Adjust the thermostat to the desired cabinet temperature, ensuring it is set above 70°F to prevent coil freeze-ups.

  7. Test the air conditioner

    Power on the unit and verify that the evaporator blower starts running. Allow the compressor to operate for 5 to 10 minutes and check that the condenser air temperature rises.
