How to Install the N170216G020 Air Conditioner
Installation guide for mounting and wiring the N170216G020 air conditioner for enclosure cooling.
Estimated time: 45m
Tools needed:
Screwdriver, Wrench, Ratchet driver
Supplies needed:
Mounting gasket kit, Copper conductors, Slow-blow fuse or HACR circuit breaker
- Inspect and Test Functionality
Inspect the air conditioner for any damage. Test its functionality before mounting. Ensure the unit has been upright for at least 5 minutes if it was transported horizontally. Refer to the nameplate for electrical requirements and wire to a properly grounded power supply using only copper conductors. The minimum circuit ampacity must be at least 125% of the unit's nameplate amperage. Immediately after applying power, the evaporator blower should start. Operate the unit with the compressor running for 5-10 minutes by setting the cooling thermostat below ambient temperature. Note: For testing only, the thermostat stop screw may be removed to allow settings below 70°F, but must be replaced afterward.
- Install Mounting Gaskets
Using the provided mounting gasket kit, install the gaskets onto the air conditioner.
- Mount the Air Conditioner
Mount the air conditioner onto the enclosure, taking care not to damage the mounting gasket. Avoid dragging the unit on the enclosure with the gasket attached to prevent rips or tears and maintain a watertight seal. Start mounting bolts by hand to avoid cross-threading before tightening with a wrench or ratchet driver.
- Connect Power Supply
Refer to the nameplate for electrical requirements. Wire the unit to a properly grounded power supply. The electrical circuit must include either a slow-blow fuse or an HACR circuit breaker. Ensure no other equipment is connected to this circuit to prevent overloading.
- Wire Remote Thermostat (if applicable)
If your air conditioner requires a remote mounted thermostat, wire the thermostat outputs to the appropriate terminals on the 24 VAC terminal strip according to the correct wiring diagram.
- Set Thermostat
Set the thermostat for the required cabinet temperature. Refer to the 'Sequence of Operation' section for details on thermostat adjustment and operation. Do not set the enclosure thermostat below 70°F to prevent coil freeze-ups.
