DESCRIPTION

The PTAC Hydronic Kit is an enclosure kit that provides

complete coverage of all PTAC plumbing and coils while still

allowing access to controls. The kit can only be installed

where there is a central boiler for heating the water. It does

not affect unit heating and cooling operations. The hydronic

kit chassis slides out for service without removing any

hydronic plumbing. The electrical connections are plug-in

type to assist in kit installation.

NOTE: Heat pump models will operate on heat pump

function down to the switchover temperature before operat-

ing on hydronic heat.

Freeze Protection

For PTAC Hydronic Coil freeze protection on hot water

systems, the hydronic system should use an antifreeze

ATTENTION INSTALLING PERSONNEL

As a professional installer you have an obligation to know the product better than the customer. This

includes all safety precautions and related items.

Prior to actual installation, thoroughly familiarize yourself with this Instruction Manual. Pay special attention

to all safety warnings. Often during installation or repair it is possible to place yourself in a position which is

more hazardous than when the unit is in operation.

Remember, it is your responsibility to install the product safely and to know it well enough to be able to

instruct a customer in its safe use.

Safety is a matter of common sense...a matter of thinking before acting. Most dealers have a list of specific

good safety practices...follow them.

The precautions listed in this Installation Manual are intended as supplemental to existing practices.

However, if there is a direct conflict between existing practices and the content of this manual, the

precautions listed here take precedence.

RECOGNIZE THIS SYMBOL AS A SAFETY PRECAUTION.

solution. However, the addition of antifreeze will reduce the

capacity of the hydronic coil and affect system sizing. The

higher the antifreeze concentration, the greater the capacity

reduction. Therefore, for optimum unit performance, only use

an antifreeze concentration that will protect to the lowest

ambient temperature expected. A 20% solution will protect

to approximately 15°F. A 50% solution protect to -35°F.

Use an antifreeze that is formulated for hydronic use. DO

NOT USE AUTOMOTIVE OR PETROLEUM BASED PROD-

UCTS.

PTAC HYDRONIC HEAT KIT HVK03E AND HWK03E INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS DESCRIPTION The PTAC Hydronic Kit is an enclosure kit that provides complete coverage of all PTAC plumbing and coils while still allowing access to controls. The kit can only be installed where there is a central boiler for heating the water. It does not affect unit heating and cooling operations. The hydronic kit chassis slides out for service without removing any hydronic plumbing.

E JOB PREPARATION Before installing the hydronic kit, determine the following: • Whether a 2-way or 3-way normally open or normally closed valve is required. • If an end switch is required to control the circulating pump. (Information relating to U.L. approved valves and current loads is shown on the kit label and is repeated in the following figure).

1. Drill two 1/8” diameter holes on both sides of wall sleeve as shown (Figure 1). NOTE: If there is not enough room to drill holes from the side then drill holes from inside the wall sleeve. Wall Sleeve 3-1/4" 5" 1/8" Holes 2-1/4" Indoor Right Side Figure 3 4. Mount the transition to the chassis with two 1/2-inch #8 supplied screws (Figure 4).

Lift the hydronic top straight up and set aside along with the six screws (Figure 10). Floor Figure 6 Y= 6-3/4" 2" D 28" Figure 7 Exterior Wall Figure 10 Hydronic Front 10.

For normally closed valves, connect the BL chassis harness wire to the second BK wire from the valve. 15. Cut either the YL or BL wire that is not being used at the plastic male connector on the control panel. TWO-WAY VALVE INSTALLATION When installing two-way valves, the flow direction is from end “B” as shown in Figure 15.

3. To service the unit, remove the front. Remove the four sheet metal screws that secure the unit to the wall sleeve from each of the side seal mounting brackets. If a subbase is used, remove the right side cover panel from the subbase and disconnect the power cord. The chassis may be removed for service. U-CLIP VALVE PLASTIC CONNECTOR NOTE: To prevent water hammering, the use of approved motorized valves and good piping practices is strongly recommended.
