LIMITATIONSThese units must be installed in accordance with applicable na-tional, local and municipal safety codes. Refer to Table 1 forUnit Application Data.If components are to be added to a unit to meet local codes,they are to be installed at the dealer's and/or the customer's ex-pense.LOCATIONUse the following guidelines to select a suitable location forthese units.1. The condensing unit is designed for outdoor installationonly. The condenser fans are the propeller type and are notsuitable for use with ductwork.2. The condensing unit and the evaporator blower should be in-stalled as close together as possible and with a minimumnumber of bends in the refrigerant piping. Refer to “REFRIG-ERANT PIPING” for additional information.3. The condensing unit should not be installed where normaloperating sounds may be objectionable. On either rooftopor ground level installations, rubber padding can be appliedbetween the base rails and their supports to lessen anytransmission of vibration.ROOF-TOP LOCATIONSBe careful not to damage the roof. Consult the building contrac-tor or architect if the roof is bonded. Choose a location with ade-quate structural strength to support the unit.The condensing unit must be mounted on solid level supports.The supports can be channel iron beams or wooden beamstreated to reduce deterioration.A minimum of two (2) beams are required to support each unit.The beams should: (1) Be positioned perpendicular to the roofjoists. (2) Extend beyond the dimensions of the unit to distributethe load on the roof. (3) Be capable of adequately supportingthe entire unit weight. Refer to Figure 1 and Table 2 for load dis-tribution and weights.These beams can usually be set directly on the roof. Flashing isnot required.NOTE: On bonded roofs, check for special installation require-ments.GROUND LEVEL LOCATIONSThe units must be installed on a one-piece level concrete slabwith a minimum thickness of 4 inches (100mm). The length andwidth should be at least 6 inches (150mm) greater than theunits overall base dimensions. Refer to Figure 4.Footers under the slab that extend below the frost line are rec-ommended. Any strain on the refrigerant lines may cause a re-frigerant leak. The slab should not be tied to the buildingfoundation because noise and vibration will telegraph.A unit can also be supported by concrete piers. These piersshould (1) extend below the frost line, (2) be located under theunit's four corners, and (3) be sized to carry the entire unitweight. Refer to Figure 1 and Table 2 for the center of gravityand unit weight.CAUTION: Care should be taken to protect the unit from tam-pering and unauthorized persons from injury.Screws on access panels will prevent casual tam-pering. Additional safety precautions such asfences around the unit or locking devices on thepanels may be advisable. Check local authoritiesfor safety regulations.RIGGING AND HANDLINGExercise care when moving the unit. Do not remove any pack-aging until the unit is near the place of installation.Rig the unit by attaching nylon straps with hooks to the liftingholes provided in the base rails. Spreaders, whose length ex-ceeds the largest dimension across the unit, MUST be usedacross the top of the unit if the rigging height above the top ofthe unit is less than 5 feet (1.5m). See Figure 2.WARNING: Do not use straps under the unit or through the forklift slots for lifting purposes. Sharp metal edges candamage the straps and could result in personal in-jury or equipment damage.BEFORE LIFTING A UNIT, MAKE SURE THAT ITS WEIGHTIS DISTRIBUTED EQUALLY ON THE STRAPS SO THAT ITWILL LIFT EVENLY.Units may also be moved or lifted with a forklift. Slotted open-ings in the base rails are provided for this purpose. The 090MBH unit may be lifted from either the LH or RH side - under theunit.LENGTH OF FORKS MUST BE A MINIMUM OF 42" (1066mm)for 090 MBH units or a MINIMUM OF 54" (1372mm) for 120 MBHunits when lifting across the long dimension.Remove the nesting brackets from the four corners on top ofthe unit. All screws that are removed to take these brackets offmust be replaced on the unit.035-15406-002-A-0504Unitary Products Group 3INSTALLATIONMODEL HCE090 & 120Voltage VariationMin. / Max. 380/415 V 342 / 456 VAmbient Air on Condnser CoilMin. / Max.°F 45 / 125°C 7 / 52Suction Pressure at Compressorand Corresponding Temp. atSaturation Min. / Max.psig / kPa 57.5 / 403 -90.0 / 630°F 32 / 54°C 0 / 12NOTE: Refer to page 7 for refrigerant piping limitations.TABLE 1 - UNIT APPLICATION DATAFIG. 1 - CENTER OF GRAVITYUnit Size(MBH)Dimension - in. / mmA B C D090 42 3/4 / 1085 31 3/4 / 806 20 5/16 / 516 12 13/16 / 325120 70 1/8 / 1780 32 / 813 30 3/4 / 781 15 1/8 / 384
