Form 38AH-4PD

The 38AH condensing unit offers the


utmost in system configuration and
control adaptability. Its premiumquality standard components ensure
durable, efficient operation.

Versatility
38AH Series condensing units feature
up to 4 compressors and 2 refrigerant circuits, and can be matched with
a wide variety of air-handling units.
All condensing unit circuits can supply
a single air handler or 2 separate air
handlers.
Standard units have constant volume control. A variable air volume
(VAV) option is available. VAV units
have electric unloaders on the compressors to closely match building
loads. The VAV option requires only a
simple connection to the Carrier
ModuPanel discharge air controller,
thereby saving installation time and
cost. (NOTE: Unit sizes 024-034
require field supplied and installed
accumulator.)
Durable construction
All 38AH units have weatherized cabinets constructed of heavy-duty galvanized steel prepainted with corrosionresistant baked enamel. Inside and
outside surfaces are protected to ensure long life and good looks. The
units exceed the requirements of the
Federal Test Method Standard
No. 141 (Method 6061) 500-hour salt
spray test.
The units coils have aluminum fins
mechanically bonded to copper tubes
for long-term reliability and improved
heat transfer. Copper fins on copper tubes are available for harsh
industrial or coastal conditions.
Reliability
The 38AH condensing units feature
time-proven, highly reliable 06D and
06E semi-hermetic compressors.
Unloading capability is a standard feature on the lead compressor of each
circuit. Each compressor has vibration
isolators to provide quiet operation
and reduced component stress.
Because 38AH units have 2 independent circuits, they provide inherent
backup capability. Each circuit is also
protected by the following safety
features:

applications that require painted units. Units are painted
with American Sterling Gray color.
Alternate fan motors and drives are available to provide the widest possible range of performance.

Field-installed accessories
Discharge plenum directs the air discharge directly into
the occupied space; integral horizontal and vertical louvers
enable redirection of airflow. Accessory is available unpainted or painted.
Two-row hot water coils have 58-in. diameter copper
tubes mechanically bonded to aluminum plate fins. Coils
have non-ferrous headers.
One-row steam coil has 1-in. OD copper tube and aluminum fins. The Inner Distributing Tube (IDT) design provides uniform temperatures across the coil face. The steam
coil has a broad operating pressure range; up to 175 psig
at 400 F and up to 300 psig at 300 F. IDT steam coils are
especially suited to applications where sub-freezing air enters the unit.
Electric resistance heat coils have an open-wire design
and are mounted in a rigid frame. Safety cutouts for high
temperature conditions are standard.

Economizer (enthalpy controlled) provides ventilation


air and free cooling if outside ambient temperature and
humidity are suitable. Can also be used with CO2 sensors
to help meet indoor air quality requirements.
Return-air grille provides a protective barrier over the
return-air opening and gives a finished appearance to units
installed in the occupied space. Accessory is available unpainted or painted.
Subbase provides a stable, raised platform and room
for condensate drain connection for floor-mounted units.
Accessory is available unpainted or painted.
Overhead suspension package includes necessary brackets to support units in horizontal ceiling installations.
Carrier Comfort System electronic programmable
thermostats provide 2-stage cooling control and 2-stage
heat control with remote communication ability.
CO2 sensors can be used in conjunction with the economizer accessory to help meet indoor air quality requirements. The sensor signals the economizer to open when
the CO2 level in the space exceeds the set point. A Carrier
Comfort System programmable thermostat can also be used
to override the sensor if the outside air temperature is too
high or too low.

Selection procedure 38AH024-034/40RM


NOTE: Pages 16 and 17 contain combination ratings for
38AH024-034 units and matching 40RM air handlers. If
the 38AH units are matched with 39L or 39NX air handlers, use the Carrier Electronic Catalog ACAPS software
package for combination ratings. If Totalinet P702 water
coolers are used, determine the performance by crossplotting the condensing unit performance found in this book
against the P702 performance in the P702 product data
book. If the 38AH condensing units are matched with 2 independent 40RM units, cross-plot for performance ratings
or contact Carrier Application Engineering for assistance.
I Determine cooling load, evaporator-air temperature and quantity.
Given:
Total Cooling Capacity
Required (TC) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 235,000 Btuh
Sensible Heat Capacity
Required (SHC) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 185,000 Btuh
Temperature Air Entering
Condenser (Edb) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 95 F
Temperature Air Entering
Evaporator (db/wb) . . . . . . . . . . . 80 F db, 67 F wb
Evaporator Air Quantity . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 8000 cfm
External Static Pressure . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.80 in. wg
Length of Interconnecting
Refrigerant Piping . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 30 ft (Linear)

II Select condensing unit air-handler combination.


For this example, select a 38AH024 matched with a
40RM024. (See Combination Ratings table, page 16.)
This 38AH024/40RM024 condensing unit-air handler combination provides 237,200 Btuh of total cooling capacity and 188,600 Btuh of sensible capacity at
the given conditions. If other temperatures or airflow
values are required, interpolate the values from the combination ratings.
III Determine sizes of liquid and suction lines.
Enter the Refrigerant Pipe Sizes table (page 29). The
sizes shown are based on an equivalent length of pipe.
This equivalent length is equal to the linear length of
pipe indicated at the top of each sizing column, plus a
50% allowance for fitting losses. (For a more accurate
determination of actual equivalent length in place of
using the estimated 50% value, refer to Carrier System Design Manual.) For this example, note in the linear length column that the proper pipe size is 58 in.
for the liquid lines and 138 in. for the suction lines.
IV Determine fan rpm and bhp (brake horsepower).
At the Air Handler Fan Performance table (page 18),
enter the 40RM024 section at 8000 cfm and move to
the External Static Pressure (ESP) column. Note that
the conditions require 904 rpm at 3.86 bhp. Select
the standard motor and medium-static drive (option code
HC or FD).

3. Gross capacities shown do not include a deduction for evaporator fan motor
heat.
4. Formulas:
sensible heat capacity (Btuh)
tldb = tedb
1.1 x cfm
tlwb = wet-bulb temperature corresponding to enthalpy of air leaving evaporator coil (hlwb)
total capacity (Btuh)
hlwb = hewb
4.5 x cfm
where hewb = enthalpy of air entering evaporator coil
5. Combination ratings are based on a 2 F line loss. For a close-coupled system
(less than 15 ft), add 2% to ratings. Piping sizes in Refrigerant Pipe Sizes table
on page 29 are based on 2 F line loss. All combination ratings are based on
R-22.

3. Gross capacities shown do not include a deduction for evaporator fan motor
heat.
4. Formulas:
sensible heat capacity (Btuh)
tldb = tedb
1.1 x cfm
tlwb = wet-bulb temperature corresponding to enthalpy of air leaving evaporator coil (hlwb)
total capacity (Btuh)
hlwb = hewb
4.5 x cfm
where hewb = enthalpy of air entering evaporator coil
5. Combination ratings are based on a 2 F line loss. For a close-coupled system
(less than 15 ft), add 2% to ratings. Piping sizes in Refrigerant Pipe Sizes table
on page 29 are based on 2 F line loss. All combination ratings are based on
R-22.

Interpolation is permissible.
Correction Factor = 1.1 x (1 BF) x (db 80).

Controls 38AH024-034
Sequence of operation
Single air handler, 2-stage cool thermostat At
start-up, the thermostat calls for first-stage cooling (TC1
closes) and with all safety devices satisfied, circuit no. 1 control relay (CR1) energizes, deenergizing the crankcase heater
at compressor no. 1. The indoor-fan motor starts immediately, and the liquid line solenoid valve (LLSV) for
solenoid drop refrigeration control on circuit no. 1 opens.
Outdoor-fan motor no. 1 and compressor no. 1 start after
one second. Fan no. 2 starts if the outdoor ambient temperature is above 70 F.
On standard units, compressor no. 1 operates either fully
loaded or at one step of unloading depending on the suction pressure, which in turn is dependent on the evaporator load conditions. As cooling demand increases, TC2 of
the 2-stage thermostat energizes control relay no. 2. CR2
deenergizes the crankcase heater at compressor no. 2 and
brings on compressor no. 2 after one second. The LLSV
for solenoid drop refrigerant control (circuit no. 2) opens as
soon as CR2 is energized. On standard units, compressor
no. 2 operates fully loaded.
As cooling demand is satisfied, thermostat contacts TC2
break and deenergize CR2, which then deenergizes compressor no. 2 and energizes its crankcase heater. The LLSV
on circuit no. 2 closes, preventing refrigerant migration back
to compressor no. 2 during the off cycle. If the space temperature continues to decrease, stage 1 thermostat contacts
TC1 break and deenergize CR1. Immediately after CR1 is
deenergized, compressor no. 1 shuts off and its crankcase
heater is energized. The LLSV on circuit no. 1 closes, preventing refrigerant migration back to compressor no. 1 during the off cycle. Outdoor-fan motors no. 1 and 2 deenergize as soon as CR1 is deenergized.
NOTE: If thermostat fan switch is in the auto position, the
indoor fan cycles on and off as the thermostat calls for
cooling (or heating). If the fan switch is in the continuous
position, the fan runs as long as the outdoor unit is powered up.
Two air handlers, two 2-stage cool thermostats (one
per air handler) At start-up of circuit no. 1, the
thermostat controlling circuit no. 1 calls for the first stage
of cooling when thermostat contact TC1 closes. If all safety
devices are satisfied, circuit no. 1 control relay CR1 energizes, which deenergizes the crankcase heater at compressor no. 1. The indoor-fan motor on the circuit no. 1
air handler starts immediately, and the main liquid line
solenoid valve (LLSV) for solenoid drop refrigerant control
on circuit no. 1 opens. Outdoor-fan motor no. 1 and compressor no. 1 start after one second. Fan no. 2 starts if the
outdoor ambient is above 70 F.
On standard units, compressor no. 1 operates either fully
loaded or at one step of unloading depending on the

suction pressure, which in turn is dependent on the evaporator load conditions. As cooling demand increases, TC2
of the 2-stage thermostat energizes the capacity control
LLSV resulting in full utilization of the evaporator surface.
The fully utilized evaporator surface raises the suction pressure until the pressure-operated capacity control valve
setting is exceeded, so that the compressor becomes fully
loaded.
The thermostat controlling circuit no. 2 calls for the first
stage of cooling when thermostat contact TC1 closes. Assuming all safety devices are satisfied, circuit no. 2 control
relay CR2 energizes, which deenergizes the crankcase heater
at compressor no. 2. The indoor-fan motor on circuit no. 2
air handler starts immediately, and the main LLSV for
solenoid drop refrigerant control on circuit no. 2 opens.
Compressor no. 2 starts after one second. The outdoor fans
are already running if circuit no. 1 is running. If circuit
no. 1 is not running when thermostat no. 2 calls for cooling, the outdoor fans are off. In this situation, outdoor-fan
motor no. 1 starts when compressor no. 2 starts. Outdoorfan motor no. 2 comes on if the outdoor ambient temperature is above 60 F.
IMPORTANT: Do not install CCS2 (capacity control
solenoid) unless accessory unloader is field-installed
on circuit no. 2 compressor. CCS2 is controlled from
TC2 contacts on thermostat that regulate circuit no.
2 air handler.
NOTE: Circuit no. 2 compressor does not have a factoryinstalled unloader; one must be field-installed if required.
As cooling demand is satisfied at thermostat no. 1 or 2
(whichever comes first), contacts TC2 break and the capacity control LLSV on that circuit is deenergized. This prevents refrigerant flow through the upper (circuit no. 1 or 2)
evaporator section, causing the suction pressure to drop
and the compressor on that circuit to unload.
As the space temperature drops further, thermostat
contacts TC1 open, which deenergizes control relay CR1
or CR2. Immediately after CR1 or CR2 is deenergized, the
compressor CR1 or CR2 control is shut off and its crankcase heater is energized. The LLSV on that circuit closes,
preventing refrigerant migration back to the compressor during the off cycle. Outdoor-fan motors no. 1 and 2 are deenergized only if the space thermostats for both circuits no. 1
and 2 are not calling for cooling.
NOTE: If the thermostat fan switch is in the auto position,
the indoor fan cycles on and off as the thermostat calls for
cooling (or heating). If the fan switch is in the continuous
position, the fan runs as long as the outdoor unit is powered up.

38AH024-034 UNITS WITH 2 AIR HANDLERS

Application data 38AH024-034


Installation
Select equipment to match or to be slightly less than peak
load. This provides better humidity control, less unit cycling,
and less part-load operation.
When selecting vapor line sizes, oil return must be evaluated, particularly at part-load conditions.
The indoor fan must always be operating when outdoor
unit is operating.
IMPORTANT: When application is in a VAV (variable
air volume) system, total building load is not the sum
of the individual peak loads. If individual peak loads
are summed, the equipment tends to be oversized for
the load.
To minimize return-air temperature extremes, use the
equipment room as a return-air plenum when applying
VVT systems with supply-to-return air recycle as used with
Carrier VVT control systems.
Ductwork should be sized according to unit size, not
building load.

To minimize the possibility of air recirculation, avoid the


use of concentric supply/return grilles.
Indoor equipment should be selected at no less than
300 cfm/ton.
Condensing units applied in VVT or VAV systems must
have field-supplied and installed accumulators. Order part
number --KH--73LZ-001 from Service Parts.

*Double suction riser required if evaporator is below condensing unit and 2 unloaders are used on that
circuit.
Double suction riser required if evaporator is below condensing unit and compressor is equipped
with 2 unloaders. Note the only time circuit no. 2 may be equipped with 2 unloaders is if it is serving
its own air handler and the unit does not require low ambient operation (MotormasterT III control).
**Double suction riser required if evaporator is below condensing unit and compressor has one or more
unloader(s).
NOTES:
1. All line sizes are inches OD.
2. Standard unit comes with one pressure-operated unloader on circuit no. 1. If unit serves one air
handler, an additional unloader may be field installed on circuit no. 1 compressor only. If the unit
serves 2 separate air handlers and low ambient operation is required (Motormaster III control), each
circuits compressor may only be equipped with one unloader.

General
Select equipment to match or to be slightly less than peak
load. This provides better humidity control, less unit cycling,
and less part-load operation. Equipment should be selected
to perform at no less than 300 cfm/ton.
The air handler fan must always be operating when the
condensing unit is operating.

Ductwork should be sized according to unit size, not


building load. For larger units with two fans, a split duct
transition is recommended at the fan outlets, but a plenum
can be used with slight reduction in external static pressure
capability.
For variable air volume (VAV) systems with supply-toreturn air recycling, use the equipment room as a return air
plenum.

Condensing unit selection procedure


38AH044-134
I Determine required capacity, saturated suction
temperature (SST) at the compressors, and the
temperature of the air entering the condensing
unit.
Given:
Cooling Load . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 625,000 Btuh
Saturated suction temperature . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 40 F
Entering-air temperature . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 95 F

II Enter the Condensing Unit Ratings table at the


given saturated suction temperature and enteringair temperature for the required cooling
capacity.
The 38AH064 unit has a cooling capacity of
634,000 Btuh at 40 F SST and 95 F entering-air temperature; the unit meets requirements according to the
given conditions.

System selection procedure 38AH044-134


System requirements can often be met by combining 38AH
condensing units with one or two air handlers.
For systems with one air handler:
Use a personal computer and Carriers ACAPS (Applied
Coil and Air Handler Performance and Selection) software
to select a model 39L or 39NX air handler with directexpansion (DX) coils. Enter the software program and input your job requirements. From the list presented, select a
38AH condensing unit that you estimate will meet capacity
requirements. For sizes 044-084, you can select either a
standard dual-circuit unit (designated D) or an optional singlecircuit manifolded unit (designated S). All other sizes have
dual circuits only.
After you have selected a 38AH unit, you can check its
performance with one or several DX coils. From the DX
coil list presented on the screen, match the 38AH with any
coil or all coils. The program calculates the combined performance of the condensing unit and each DX coil and
presents the resulting system capacities and operating temperatures. Matching thermostatic expansion valves and
nozzles for the DX coils are automatically selected and
displayed.

For systems with two air handlers:


Use a personal computer and Carriers ACAPS software to
select a model 39L or 39NX air handler with direct-expansion
(DX) coils.
For the first air handler, enter the ACAPS program and
input the job requirements. To choose a condensing unit,
select the Specify Your Own option. The program asks
you for condensing unit capacities at 30 F and 50 F SST.
See the Condensing Unit Circuit and Module Ratings tables
on pages 47-50 in this book, and enter the capacities from
condenser circuit A or B (remember to use the correct Air
Temperature Entering Condenser column when locating the
circuit capacities).
For the second air handler, repeat the procedure to select the second DX coil for the condenser circuit (A or B)
not used in the first selection.

Controls 38AH044-084
Sequence of operation
Circuits A1 and B1 are controlled by independent circuitry.
It is therefore possible to maintain partial cooling capability
even if one compressor is inoperable.
NOTE: Single-circuit units do not have independent control circuitry.
On a call for cooling, the first-stage cooling thermostat
TC1 closes, energizing the first stage of the condenser fans
and timer motor TM-A (TM for single-circuit units). After
12 seconds, the timer energizes lead compressor contactor
C-A1 and the lead compressor starts. (Circuit A compressor is the lead on dual-circuit units, and compressor A1 is
the lead on single-circuit units.) At the same time, solenoid
drop relay SDR2 energizes and closes its contacts, which
energizes and opens liquid line solenoid valve LLS-A (LLS-A1
for single-circuit units). Circuit A (compressor A1 for singlecircuit units) is now operational.
A set of bypass contacts in timer TM-A allows the
circuit A compressor (compressor A1 for single-circuit units)
40 seconds to build sufficient oil pressure. If the oil pressure is insufficient after 40 seconds, circuit A (compressor
A1 for single-circuit units) shuts down and must be reset
manually.
A second set of bypass contacts in timer TM-A (TM for
single-circuit units) allows the refrigerant circuit 212 minutes
to build sufficient low-side pressure. This time delay is a
start-up feature for low ambient conditions; no accessory is
required. If refrigerant circuit pressure is insufficient to close
the low-pressure switch after 212 minutes, the circuit A compressor (compressor A1 for single-circuit units) shuts down
for 512 minutes and then automatically attempts to restart.
No manual reset is required.

56

For dual-circuit units: If circuit A is insufficient for the cooling requirements, second-stage thermostat TC2 closes to
bring circuit B on line. Circuit B follows the same sequence
of operation as circuit A, except a relay delays circuit B
compressor start-up for 40 seconds after a call for cooling.
Because circuit A has a 12-second delay after TC1 closes,
and circuit B has a 40-second delay after TC2 closes, the
two compressors cannot start at the same time.
For optional single-circuit units: If compressor A1 is insufficient for the cooling requirements, second-stage thermostat TC2 closes, which opens liquid line solenoid valve
LLS-A2. Compressor A2 starts only after the D-D2 contacts in timer TM close (approximately 212 minutes after
compressor A1 is energized) and the suction pressure is sufficient to close capacity control pressure switches CCPS1
and CCPS2.
NOTE: Liquid line solenoid valves must be field-supplied
and installed at the evaporator for both dual- and optional
single-circuit units.
Indoor-fan operation: When the fan switch on the thermostat is set for automatic operation (AUTO), the fieldsupplied indoor-fan contactor (IFC) is cycled with the lead
compressor. If the fan switch is set at the continuous position (CONT), the IFC is energized as long as the unit power
is on.

Controls 38AH094-134
Sequence of operation
Units are controlled with electromechanical components.
Each refrigeration circuit is operated by an independent timer
motor which controls the operation sequence of each circuit. It is possible to maintain partial cooling capability even
if one circuit is inoperable.
On a call for cooling, first stage cooling thermostat
TC1 closes. Condenser fans and timer motor (TM) are energized. After approximately 7 seconds, timer contacts E-E1
close. Approximately 12 seconds after TC1 closes, normally open timer contacts B-B1 close for 1 second. This
energizes compressor A1 contacts CA1 and starts the compressor. At the same time, solenoid drop relays (SDRs) and
liquid line solenoid valve no. 1 (LLS-A1) open, and timer
relay no. 1 (TR1) is energized. Normally open TR1 contacts close completing a circuit around B-B1 and through
compressor A1 contactors to maintain compressor operation when B-B1 contacts open. Contacts E-E1 remain closed
for approximately 40 seconds to bypass the oil pressure
switch. If oil pressure is insufficient when contacts E-E1 open,
the compressor stops, the timer cycles off, and the control
circuit locks out. At start-up, timer motor contacts D-D1 are
closed, bypassing low-pressure relay contacts LPR-A for 212
minutes. This provides a winter start-up feature.
Approximately 212 minutes after TC1 closes, timer
contacts D-D1 open and D-D2 close. If pressure is insufficient to close the low-pressure switch, the low-pressure switch
relay remains open, the compressor shuts down, and the
Time Guardt control is initiated. Time Guard control prevents compressor from restarting for 5 minutes after the
demand for cooling is satisfied.

Units 38AH094 and 104 If circuit A operation is insufficient for the cooling requirements, the thermostat second stage TC2 closes to bring circuit B on-line for cooling.
This circuit follows the same sequence of operation as the
lead circuit, except a 60-second time-delay relay (TDR) delays compressor start-up for 60 seconds after the call for
cooling.
Modules 124A, 124B, 134A, and 134B If compressor A1 is insufficient for the cooling requirements, the
thermostat second stage closes, which opens the liquid line
solenoid valve LLS-A2. Compressor A2 starts only after
D-D2 contacts in the timer close and the suction pressure is
sufficient to close the capacity control switches.
All units When the fan switch is set for automatic (AUTO)
operation, the indoor-fan contactor (IFC) is cycled with the
lead compressor. If the fan switch is set for continuous
(CONT), the IFC is energized as long as the unit power
is on.
Restart after stoppage by safety control The highpressure switch and the oil pressure switch must be reset
manually by breaking the control power supply at any of
the following points: Control circuit fuse, fan motor circuit
breaker, or thermostat. Restart follows the Time Guard control 5-minute delay. Stoppage by low-pressure switch results in Time Guard control 5-minute delay, then unit attempts to restart.
The compressor motor overcurrent protectors are manualreset circuit breakers. Reset of control circuit may also be
necessary.
