Refrigerant Line Considerations
Table 16. Reuse Existing Refrigerant Lines
CAUTION
REFRIGERANT!
Failure to inspect or use proper service tools may result in equipment damage or personal injury. If using existing refrigerant lines make certain that all joints are brazed, not soldered.
For retrofit applications, where the existing indoor evaporator coil and/or refrigerant lines will be used, the following precautions should be taken. · Ensure that the indoor evaporator coil and refrigerant lines are
the correct size. · Ensure that the refrigerant lines are free of leaks, acid, and oil. Important: For more information, see publication number SS-
APG006EN
Table 17. Refrigerant Line Routing Precautions
Important: Comply with National, State, and Local Codes when isolating line sets from joists, rafters, walls, or other structural elements. Important: For buried linesets, see publication number SS-APG006EN. Important: Take precautions to prevent noise within the building structure due to vibration transmission from the refrigerant lines.
For Example: · When the refrigerant lines must be fastened to floor joists or other framing in a structure, use isolation type hangers. · Isolation hangers should also be used when refrigerant lines are run in stud spaces or enclosed ceilings. · Where the refrigerant lines run though a wall, sill or enclosed ceiling- they should be insulated, isolated and serviceable if any braze
connections are present. · Isolate the lines from all duct work. · Minimize the number of 90° turns.

Charging Below 55º F Outdoor Temperature in Heating Mode
Table 39. Charging below 55º F outdoor temperature in heating mode
The Subcooling Charging method in cooling is not recommended below 55º F outdoor temperature. The only recommended method of charging at outdoor temperatures below 55º F is weighing in the charge in heating mode.
STEP 1 – Determine additional charge.
Note: The nameplate charge value represents the amount of refrigerant shipped in the outdoor unit and is compatible with 10 feet of AHRI rated refrigerant lines and the smallest AHRI rated coil.
Using the method below, find the charge associated with the additional length of tubing above 10 ft. and record it below.
Calculating Charge Using the Weigh-In Method
1. Measure in feet the distance between the outdoor unit and the indoor unit. (Include the entire length of the line from the service valve to the IDU.) Subtract 10 ft from this entire length and record on line 1.
2. Enter the charge multiplier (0.47 oz./ft for 3/8″ & 0.30 oz./ft for 5/16″).
3. Multiply the total length of refrigerant tubing (Line 1) times the value on Step 2. Record the result on Line 3 of the Worksheet.
4. This is the amount of refrigerant to weigh-in prior to opening the service valves.
Weigh-In Method can be used for the initial installation, or anytime a system charge is being replaced. Weigh-In Method can also be used when power is not available to the equipment site or operating conditions (indoor/outdoor temperatures) are not in range to verify with the subcooling charging method.
1. Total Line length (ft) 10 ft _______________ 2. Charge multiplier = for 3/8″, use .47 oz. per foot and for 5/16″,
use .30 oz. per foot 3. Step 1 x Step 2 = ______________ 4. Refrigerant (oz) = ______________
STEP 2 – Stabilize the system by operating for a minimum of 20 minutes.
At startup, or whenever charge is removed or added, the system must be operated for a minimum of 20 minutes to stabilize before accurate measurements can be made.
20 MIN.
STEP 3 – Complete the “Total System Charge” chart rating label below and label located on the outside of the unit with a permanent marker.
Note: Complete the “Total System Charge” chart when final charging is complete.
a. Charge added at Factory =
___________________lb/oz
b. Charge added at install =
___________________lb/oz
c. Total System Charge (a + b) = ___________________lb/oz
STEP 4 – Return to site for adjustment.
Important: Return in the spring or summer to accurately charge the system in the “Charging Mode – Cooling” with outdoor ambient above 55º F.

Defrost Control (Heat Pump only)
Demand Defrost
The demand defrost control measures heat pump outdoor ambient temperature with a sensor located outside the outdoor coil. A second sensor located on the outdoor coil is used to measure the coil temperature. The difference between the ambient and the colder coil temperature is the difference or delta-T measurement. This delta-T measurement is representative of the operating state and relative capacity of the heat pump system. By measuring the change in delta-T, we can determine the need for defrost. The coil sensor also serves to sense outdoor coil temperature for termination of the defrost cycle.
Fault Identification
A fault condition is indicated by the UX360 User Interface or Diagnostic Mobile App.
Defrost Enabled
Demand Defrost is enabled with the following inputs to the Integrated Variable Speed Control (IVSC):
· Outdoor ambient temperature sensor (ODS-B) reporting an outdoor temperature at or below 52° F.
· Coil temperature sensor (CBS) reporting a coil temperature at or below 35° F.
· Heat/Cool Demand (HCD) from the communicating comfort control for at least two minutes or more.
Defrost Initiation
The calculated temperature difference between the outdoor temperature sensor and the coil temperature sensor is called Delta T. Defrost can occur once the current Delta T exceeds the Delta T initiate value. This adaptive logic assures a complete defrost for a range of outdoor temperatures.
DEFROST TERMINATION PROFILES
NOTES: Forced Defrost
1. System must be running with demand from the thermostat.
2. FRC DFT TEST can be initiated in heat mode only. DFC TEST can be entered from the UX360 User Interface or Diagnostic Mobile App.
3. Press ENTER to begin forced defrost.
4. Execute Forced Defrost following Forced Defrost (Defrost terminates on Coil Temperature or maximum time override of 15 minutes).
5. When test begins, TEST IN PROGRESS displays and Coil Temperature value.
Note: UX360 Home screen will display DEFROST.
6. When test is complete, TEST COMPLETE displays for 10 seconds.
7. If there is a defrost fault condition, test terminates and sends alert to the alert menu.
8. For more information, refer to the Alert Code Tables in Service Facts and Technical Service Manual (Pub. No. 34430101 or newer) documents.
Note: Screens will update as the test proceeds.
Note: Installation, servicing and troubleshooting is done via Technician Access area of the thermostat and/or the Link Diagnostic Mobile App.
Note: Defrost termination temperature can be configured in the “Environment” section of the configuration menu.
WARNING
DEFROST CONTROL!
