Indoor Blower Fan Speed Control
The Classic™ heat pumps are designed to move the conditioned air through duct work. If the
heat pumps are installed with no duct or a minimum of duct, excessive sound levels can result.
To reduce the sound levels by reducing the air flow, the indoor blower fan speed control may be
installed. The control is manually adjusted in the field but must never drop below 325 cfm/ton of
air. The indoor blower fan speed control is standard on all HVP heat pumps.

Electric Reheat for Dehumidification
Control provides simultaneous operation of compressor when in cooling mode and the electric
elements to provide dehumidification without over cooling the room. The electric element (kW)
must be properly sized for each model for proper operation. Factory installed. Available on all
Classic units. Consult factory for details.
18 Classic Manual 9/09-6
Hot Gas Reheat (HGR)
Marvair® GreenPac HGR™ heat pumps equipped with the Hot Gas Reheat (HGR) allow the
indoor humidity of the controlled environment to be maintained at or below a certain humidity
set point. These units do not have the ability to add humidity to the classroom.
Dehumidification is achieved by operating mechanical cooling in conjunction with a hot gas
reheat coil. The coil is sized approximately to the sensible capacity of the total tonnage of the
machine.
Operation
If the humidity rises above the set point on the humidity controller and the temperature in the
classroom is satisfied, both mechanical cooling and the HGR coil operate to temper the air and
lower the humidity. If the temperature in the classroom rises above (or falls below) the set point
of the thermostat and the unit is operating in the dehumidification mode, the call for cooling (or
heating) will override the call for dehumidification and the coil is disengaged until the thermostat
is satisfied. This assures the environment temperature is maintained as first priority and humidity
control is second.
Speed Control for GreenWheel® ERV Exhaust Blower
For separate control of the exhaust blower. When used, the standard speed controller operates the
intake blower and the optional second controller the exhaust blower. Individual blower control
allows positive pressurization of the classroom. Field installed, P/N S/03335. Can be factory or
field installed.
Manual Damper - 0 to 450 cfm of Outside Air, No Pressure Relief (Configuration Y). The
amount of fresh air is determined by the position of the collar on the rod. To determine the
desired quantity of fresh air:
a. With the indoor blower on, measure the quantity of supply air being discharged into the
room with a balometer.
b. Now measure the quantity of the return air from the room. Subtract the return air from the
supply air. The difference is the amount of fresh air.
c. Loosen the set screw that holds the collar onto the rod connected to the damper. Move the
collar and tighten the set screw.

FIRE HAZARD
Improper adjustment, alteration, service, maintenance or installation could cause
serious injury, death and/or property damage.
Installation or repairs made by unqualified persons could result in hazards to you
and others. Installation MUST conform with local codes or, in the absence of local
codes, with codes of all governmental authorities have jurisdiction.
The information contained in this manual is intended for use by a qualified service
agency that is experienced in such work, is familiar with all precautions and safety
procedures required in such work, and is equipped with the proper tools and test
instruments.
For units with electric heat, a 1” clearance around the duct extensions is required. The duct extensions must be
made of galvanized steel with a minimum thickness of .019” as per the NFPA standards 90A & 90B.
Figure 7. Classic™ Heat Pump Wall Mounting Detail
2.6 Mounting the Unit
1. For wiring into the back of unit, locate the lower of the two knock-outs on the wall side of
the Classic™ Heat Pump. Drill a one inch hole in the building wall to match this opening.
Allow sufficient clearance to run 3/4" conduit through the hole and to the unit.
2. Apply a bead of silicone sealer on the wall side of the mounting brackets on the Classic™
Heat Pump. Circle the mounting holes with the silicone bead.
3. Using an appropriate and safe lifting device, set the Classic™ Heat Pump on the bottom
support bracket mounted on the wall. You must stabilize the unit on the bracket with the lift-
ing device or by some other means - the bracket alone is not sufficient.
4. Make sure that the duct flanges are properly aligned with the wall opening. Adjust as neces-
sary.
5. Note the holes in each side bracket. Using the holes for guides, drill holes through the wall
with a 3/8 inch drill bit. Insert the 3/8" bolts or lag screws through the brackets. Tighten the
bolts to secure the unit.
28 Classic Manual 9/09-6
6. Apply a bead of silicone where the top flange and side brackets contact to the structure
wall.
7. Fasten the top flange to the wall using #10 x 1/2 inch sheet metal screws.
8. On the inside of the structure, wall sleeves must be installed in the supply and return air open-
ings. The sleeves should be trimmed to fit flush with the inside wall. For units with electric
heat, a one inch clearance is required around the duct extensions. The duct extensions must be
constructed of galvanized steel with a minimum thickness of .019” as per the NFPA standards
90A & 90B.
9. Check the fit of each sleeve to its mating flange for possible air leaks. Apply silicone sealer
to close any gaps. Install the air return and supply grilles.
10. To minimize sound transmission, a latex based, insulating foam seal may be applied between
the duct extensions and the frame for the wall openings. NOTE: DO NOT USE THE FOAM
ON ANY UNITS WITH ELECTRIC RESISTANT HEATERS.
2.7 Electrical Connections
WARNING
IMPORTANT!
All electrical work must meet the requirements of local codes and ordinances. Work should
be done only by qualified persons.
The Classic™ Heat Pump may incorporate an internal crankcase heater for compressor
protection. The crankcase heater must be energized for at least 24 hours prior to starting
the compressor.
High Voltage Wiring
The power supply should have the proper voltage, phase, and ampacity for the selected model.
1. Refer to electrical data stamped on the unit rating plate for field wiring requirements. The
electrical data lists heater sizes, fuse sizes, and wire sizes for all models. Also shown are the
number for field power circuits required for the various modes with the electric heaters.
Each unit is marked with a “Minimum Circuit Ampacity”. This means that the field wiring
used must be sized to carry that amount of current. Use “Copper Conductions Only”. Refer
to the National Electrical Code for complete current carrying capacity data on the various
insulation grades of wiring materials.
2. Connect the wires to the input side of the internal breaker (L1 & L2 for single-phase units;
L1, L2, & L3 for three phase models).
CAUTION
This system contains components that require phasing for correct rotation. Failure
to observe rotation and correct on start-up will cause damage not covered by the
Marvair® Warranty.
3. Scroll compressors, like several other types of compressors, will only compress in one rotational
direction. The direction of rotation is not an issue with single-phase compressors since they
will always start and run in the proper direction. However, three phase compressors will
rotate in either direction depending upon phasing of power. Since there is a 50-50 chance of
connecting power in such a way as to cause rotation in the reverse direction, it is imperative
to confirm that the compressor is rotating in the proper direction at the initial field start-up
of the system. Verification of proper rotation is made by observing that the suction pressure
drops and the discharge pressure rises when the compressor is energized. An alternate method
of verification for self contained system with small critical refrigerant charges, where the
installation of gauges may be objectionable, can be made by monitoring the temperature of
the refrigerant lines at the compressor. The temperature should rise on the discharge line while
the suction line temperature decreases. Reverse rotation also results in a substantially reduced
current draw when compared to tabulated values.
There is no negative impact on durability caused by operating three phase compressors in the
reversed direction for a short duration of time, usually defined as less than one hour. However,
after several minutes of operation the compressor's internal protector will trip. The compressor
will then cycle on the protector until the phasing is corrected. Reverse operation for longer
than one hour may have a negative impact on the bearings.
4. Install the ground wire on the ground lug.
Note: 460V units have a step down transformer for 230V motors.
Low Voltage Wiring
1. Pull the low voltage wiring from the Classic™ Heat Pump to the thermostat / sub-base
assembly.
2. Mount the sub-base on a level plane. Connect the thermostat wire to the unit terminal board
and the thermostat as shown in Figure 8.
3. If applicable, attach the thermostat assembly to the sub-base. Check the stage two heat anticipator
setting. For units with electric heat and thermostats with an adjustable heat anticipator, energize
the electric heat and measure the current on the lead attached to the W2 terminal. Adjust/set
the heat anticipator per the instructions provided with the thermostat.
Terminals 8 & 10 on the Classic™ with economizer can be connected to a normally closed smoke
alarm or fire stat to cause equipment shutdown when the circuit is opened. (Remove factory
jumper).
THE INTERNAL TRANSFORMER IS NOT DESIGNED TO POWER OTHER
EXTERNAL DEVICES.
