I. INTRODUCTION
OVERVIEW
THANK YOU FOR PURCHASING THE ALLIANCE TRUCK CLIMATE SYSTEM. This ALLIANCE system is an auxiliary power system that provides air conditioning, heating, 115-volts, and 12-volts to the truck. This system draws diesel fuel from the truck main tank and operates like any small diesel engine. This system operates independently of the front engine and other air conditioning and heating systems on the truck. The engine drives a generator and a/c compressor. The generator provides 3480 watts of 115-volt electricity to run various appliances in the truck. Included is a 40-amp battery charger, which keeps the batteries in full charge condition while the system is operating. The compressor provides refrigerant flow to the a/c cooling unit on the inside of the cabin. Hot water from the small diesel engine is circulated though a heating coil in a/c heat unit to supply warm air in the cabin. The system temperature is monitored by a thermostat and provides comfortable climate control inside the truck during all seasons.

SYSTEM COMPONENTS
The system is shipped in five packages. Each of these packages should contain a packing list, which describes all the parts it contains. These packages should be opened prior to starting the installation and the contents checked using the packing list included as a guide. These packages contain the following: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.

FIGURE 14

NOTE: THIS IS PLANNING STAGE ONLY. DO NOT BEGIN INSTALLATION UNTIL THE INSTALLATION STAGE

LOCATING THE ENGINE UNIT (See Figure 14)


There are several issues that should be considered when deciding on the engine unit location. A. The drivers usually prefer to sleep with their heads to the drivers side of the bunk. Locating the engine as far as possible from that area will reduce the noise heard in the sleeper area. B. Many modern trucks have side skirts along the lower side areas. These skirts hinder installation time and engine service. C. There may exist pre-drilled holes in the frame rail suitable for mounting the brackets. D. Obstructions beneath or immediately inside the frame rail that will slow or hinder installation for performance. Examples are mufflers, air tanks, or fuel tanks. E. The engine unit should be easily accessed for check out and service.

FUEL PICKUP AND RETURN

CLIMATE CONTROL UNIT A/C-HEAT

FIGURE 15 The preferred location is just in front of the passenger side rear wheels, see figure 14. This places the unit where the least noise reaches the driver and is usually clear of side tanks. The second choice is just in front of the drivers side rear wheels. The third choice is under the passenger door. But, under the passenger door usually requires the addition of an optional lower step (P/N 087-00290) available from SCS TRUCK CLIMATE SYSTEMS. Also under the passenger door requires routing the exhaust to a location at least two feet behind the sleeper according to DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION LEGISLATION. The last location available may be on the fifth wheel catwalk between the frame rails and behind the sleeper. If catwalk location is chosen, remember to allow plenty of room for trailer clearance while the trailer is turning, and at least six inches clearance between the unit and the back of the sleeper. The engine noise will be the greatest inside the sleeper from this location.

LOCATING THE A/C-HEAT UNIT (See Figure 16)


There are several issues to be considered when choosing the mounting location for the a/c-heat unit. A. The drivers usually sleep with their head to the drivers side of the bunk. The further the a/c-heat unit is mounted from the head position the quieter it will be for the driver. B. The area beneath the floor of the truck may have structural beams, fuel lines, airlines, electrical wiring or other obstructions to the installation. C. There must be six inches of clearance at the air discharge hose adaptors to allow for attaching and turning the flexible air ducts. D. Maximum storage must be left for the storage of the drivers gear. E. The installer must be able to route the wire harnesses, a/c hoses and water hoses to the unit without excessive trouble

- 14 -

HEAT/COOL UNIT LOCATIONS

FIGURE 16 The preferred location is on the passenger side under the bunk. Many of the truck manufacturers use this area to mount their rear air, and it is unavailable. The second choice is the center storage area under the bunk. The third choice is under the bunk on the drivers side. Once the location has been decided, check carefully the items above before beginning installation.

LOCATING THE CONTROLS


The controls must be located so the driver can reach them easily from a sleeping position whenever possible. The control panel should be located where the discharge air from the ducts does not blow directly on the controls or the thermostat will detect an incorrect temperature and not control properly. The panel should be mounted so the wire harnesses can be routed in a closet, or behind the wall panel to the a/c-heat unit while being hidden from view. Be sure the lower and upper bunk can be raised without interference with the control panel.

LOCATING THE 115 VOLT BREAKER BOX AND OUTLETS (See Figure 15)
The breaker box must be located inside the sleeper underneath the bunk. It should be located near a door so when the driver wants to use shore power, the short extension with the male plug can be plugged into the shore power line. The battery charger is usually located near the breaker box so it can be plugged into the outlet on the side of the breaker box. The two outlet boxes connected by cords to the breaker box are to be located on the front wall of the bunk or on exterior walls of the closets or cabinets. Try to locate the outlets so they are not subject to being accidentally kicked during routine movement in the sleeper area.

LOCATING THE SURGE TANK (See Figure 15)


The surge tank must be located at least two feet above the a/c-heat unit for best performance. The preferred location is the back corner of the truck and the same side as the a/c-heat unit. The surge tank should be easily accessible and positioned so the driver can observe the coolant level within the tank, and add coolant as required.

- 15 -

III. PLANNING GENERAL ROUTING PATHS


NOTE: NEVER ROUTE ELECTRICAL WIRING OR BATTERY CABLES WITH FUEL LINES. AN ELECTRICAL
SHORT COULD EASILY IGNITE THE FUEL AND CAUSE A LIFE THREATENING SITUATION FOR THE SLEEPING OCCUPANTS. NEVER USE OEM AIR LINES, FUEL LINES OR BRAKE LINES AS SUPPORT OR ATTACHING POINTS DURING INSTALLATION.

COOLANT HOSES (See Figure 24)


1. Use the component locations chosen during the previous stage, and the coolant flow diagram as a reference. Beginning with the engine location, check out the route path to the a/c-heat unit location. 2 Look for OEM holes and fasteners that can be used to secure the 3 x 4 long mounting brackets. Remember coolant hoses require about a six inch bending radius to prevent kinking while hot. Stay away from components that move independent of the frame rails, such as transmission, cables, control levers, and suspension components. Remember when routing from the frame to the cab to allow slack in the hoses for the cab movement and bounce on rough driving surfaces.

3. Next check out the route path from the engine to the surge tank. The hose from the engine to the surge tank is three-quarter inch in diameter and will require a minimum bending radius of eight inches. 4. Checking the water circuit diagram. Note the water Y between the a/c-heat unit and the surge tank, and plan the approximate location for installation. A WATER VALVE ASSEMBLY is shown on the circuit diagram and must be located within three feet of the engine to connect to the wiring on the back of the engine unit. Read the note on the bottom right corner of the circuit diagram. Insulation tubing one inch I.D, forty foot in length, can be purchased at most local hardware stores or from SCS TRUCK CLIMATE SYSTEMS (part number 045-00154 is eight foot in length). During very cold weather (below 20 degs) a lot of heat is lost through the coolant hoses to the atmosphere, the insulation will support much warmer air in the sleeper.

REFRIGERANT HOSES
1. Inspect the back of the unit and locate the #10 (suction) hose fitting and the #6 (liquid) hose fitting on the receiver drier tank (see figure 25) 2. Make certain when the unit is mounted, the #10 and # 6 hoses can be coupled to these fitting without interference with rails, tank, or other objects. 3. Check the routing path from engine location to the A/C - Heat Unit for adequate hose length and hose routing. 4. The #10 hose will require a six inch bending radius. The #6 hose will require a four inch bending radius. 5. Adequate slack in the hoses must be left beneath the A/C - Heat Unit to allow for cabin to rail movement over rough terrain. 6. All refrigerant hoses should be routed at least 10 inches away from hot exhaust components.

- 16 -

FUEL LINES NOTE: NEVER ROUTE FUEL LINES WITH ELECTRICAL WIRING. FUEL LINES PRESENT THE THREAT
OF FIRE IF THEY ARE RUPTURED. USE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN ROUTING TO PREVENT RUBBING AND CHAFFING OF THE FUEL LINES. The fuel lines should route out of the engine unit through the upper opening near the a/c compressor. Determine the route from the engine unit to the fuel tank to be used. Keep fuel lines at least ten inches away from all truck exhaust and muffler components. There are two fuel lines, a supply to the pump, and a return to the tank. Do not use separate tanks for these lines or one tank may be drained while the other tank may overfill.

ELECTRICAL WIRING
The electrical wiring should be routed out the upper opening of the engine unit nearest the generator. Avoid routing wiring near moving parts and over sharp edges, which may cause chaffing. All electrical wiring should be routed at least ten inches away from all exhaust and muffler parts. When routing through holes in metal, the wiring should be protected by the use of grommets. Remember to leave some slack in the harness when routing from the frame to the cabin to account for cab suspension and bounce over rough terrain. Stretch the extension harness from the engine to the a/c-heat unit locations along the chosen path and check for adequate length. Stretch the control harness from the control location to the a/c-heat unit along the chosen path for adequate length. Check the battery cable length and routing from the battery box to the engine unit. Check the battery cable length and routing from the battery box to the battery charger.

IV. INSTALLING THE ENGINE UNIT (cont)


1. Uncrate the engine unit. Check the unit over for any damage that may have occurred during shipping. Report any shipping damage to SCS TRUCK CLIMATE SYSTEMS for corrective action.

NOTE: Use only a stable lifting device. The engine unit weighs over two hundred and fifty pounds (250lbs), and could cause severe personal injury if dropped on an individual.

2.

Finalize the location of the unit to the vehicle. If the unit is to be located behind a fairing now is the time to confirm the unit will fit behind the fairing and any modifications that might be required to refit the fairing back to the truck. The cover of the unit must be removable on a daily basis for engine service. Refer to figure17 for possible mounting bracket configurations. Remove or adjust any equipment on the vehicle that will interfere with the installation, such as wheel fenders, fairings, fasteners, or studs. If there is room it is best to mount the engine box so that it is located below the bottom of the rail and tucked under the rail as far a possible. The fan on the unit must have plenty of room to move the air, and cannot be exposed to high temperatures from mufflers and exhaust systems.

3.

NOTE: LATER PRODUCTION MODELS MAY HAVE PRE-DRILLED HOLES IN THE MAIN L-CHANNELS AND ENGINE BOX. 4. Fit the main mounting brackets (3x4 inch L-channel, 2 each) to the box and secure them using the two c-clamps. Check that the top will still fit correctly on the box. Check to see that the box and brackets fit to the truck as planned. Mark the brackets if any excess is protruding above the rail. Look into the box and make sure that three bolt holes spread between the bottom and top of the engine box can be drilled without damage to components. Be sure the fasteners can be reached with wrenches on both ends after being placed through the holes to be drilled. Mark the locations for three holes to be drilled on each bracket. Drill a pilot hole through each center marked on the bracket and the engine box side (match or line drill) using a one-quarter inch (1/4) diameter drill.

5.

6. 7.

8. 9.

10. Remove the brackets from the unit and saw off the portion that extended above the rail. 11. Replace the brackets on the unit using the quarter inch (1/4)drill for perfect alignment and secure using c-clamps. 12, Drill each pilot hole out with a one half-inch (1/2) diameter drill (three holes on each side). 13 Secure each bracket to the unit using three each (1/2x1-3/4 in) bolts, washers and nylock nuts. Torque these bolts and nuts to sixty (60) foot-pounds. Move the unit to its mounting position on the frame rail. If any OEM holes are going to be used, align the bracket and mark the bracket through the holes to be used.

14. Mark both brackets with two holes centered on the bracket and a minimum of five and one half inches (5-1/2) apart. 15. Remove the unit and pilot drill the locations with a one-quarter inch (1/4) diameter drill.

- 19 -

16. Replace the unit on the frame rail and using the four holes in the brackets and a quarter inch (1/4) drill mark the locations on the frame rail. 17. Drill all of these locations on the frame with a quarter inch(1/4) drill. Drill all the pilot holes out using a five-eighths (5/8) diameter drill. 18. Bolt the unit to the frame rail using four each (5/8x2-1/4) bolts, washers, and nylock nuts (torque to 100 ft lbs). 19. Replace and tighten all truck components and fasteners loosened or moved prior to installation.

INSTALLING THE COOLANT CONTROL VALVES


1. Locate the coolant control valve assembly. The wire extension to which the valves attach is found on the back of the engine unit. The wire harness is about three feet long with a mating plug for the valves. Note the yellow labels on the valve assembly and refer to the WATER CIRCUIT DIAGRAM FIGURE 24 for added clarification. The valve assembly should never be mounted with the valves up. The plastic cover should be up to prevent moisture intrusion. The water valves should be mounted near enough to the engine for the harness to reach the assembly. There must be enough room around the valve to allow the coolant hoses to be attached without kinking. Many times the valves can be mounted on the main engine mounting brackets. Secure the valves to the chosen location.

2.

3.

INSTALLING THE EXHAUST SYSTEM


Supplied in the installation kit for the exhaust are the following components used to construct the exhaust system: Muffler Muffler Brackets (2 each) 3/4 x 3 inch Nipple 3/4 x 2 inch Nipple 3/4 inch Elbow 1-1/8 inch Muffler Clamps (3 each) 8 feet Flexible Steel Pipe 1. 2. Locate the above components and set them aside. With the engine unit mounted on the frame rail the exhaust system can be installed. Screw the short nipple into the elbow. Screw the other end of the short nipple into the exhaust header through the three-inch clearance hole in the case bottom. Screw the 3/4 x 3 inch nipple into the elbow. Tighten the elbow and nipple into the exhaust header to a minimum of 25 ft-lbs of torque. The elbow can be rotated to start the exhaust in any desired direction. Slide one exhaust clamp over one end of the 8 foot length of flex pipe, and slide the pipe onto the 3 inch long nipple. Temporarily tighten the clamp to retain the flex pipe on the nipple. From underneath the truck, locate where the muffler is to be mounted. The exhaust must exit the system at least 2 feet behind the cab and be pointed rearward. The muffler works best when it is located as close as possible to the unit. In many cases the muffler can actually be mounted to the main mounting channels. The muffler brackets can be moved along the length of the muffler to match existing holes or drilled holes. Mount the muffler. - 20 -

8. 9.

Route the flex pipe to the inlet. Determine the amount of flex pipe required to make the connection.

10. Remove the flex pipe from the exhaust and cut to proper length. 11. Using two 1-1/8 exhaust clamps secure the flex pipe to the engine and muffler. The excess flex pipe can then be secured to the outlet of the muffler to route the exhaust gases further toward the rear of the vehicle. 12. Tighten all exhaust clamps securely.

INSTALLING THE SURGE TANK


1. The surge tank must be installed at least two feet above the a/c-heat unit, see figure 15. Many times there is a bracket attaching the extended sidewalls to the back of the sleeper. This is a good location to mount the surge tank. Being careful not to strip out the threads, attach the tank using four #14 self-drilling screws, or 1/4-20 bolts and nuts. Locate the tank cap and place it on the tank.

2.

3.

INSTALLING THE FUEL PICKUP AND RETURN FITTINGS IN THE TANK


The following parts are required for this installation. Fuel Pick Up Tube 5/16 x 1/4 x 90 Barbed Fitting 1. 2. Locate the tank that will be used as the fuel source. Around the filler cap there is a reinforcement plate welded to the tank. Two holes must be drilled and tapped though the welded plate to fit the 5/16x 1/4-pipe threads found on the fittings. Be sure to locate the holes far enough from the cap that the fittings can turn while screwing in and the fittings do not interfere with the cap in the closed position. Be sure after one fitting is screwed in, the other fitting is far enough away it does not interfere with the first fitting Look inside the tank before drilling the holes and be sure the fuel gauge float is not going to hinder the insertion of the fuel pick up tube. Do not over torque the fittings or the threads may strip in the aluminum tank material.

V. INSTALLING THE A/C HEAT UNIT


The following items will be needed for this installation. Drill Template for A/C-Heat Unit Portable Light 1-1/4 inch Hole Saw 1-1/2 Hole Saw 2-inch Hole Saw 3-inch Hole Saw Electric Drill

- 21 -

PREPARING THE VEHICLE


1. 2. If the lower bunk and mattress are removable, remove them from the truck to give more working room. If driver gear is in the storage areas it should be removed completely from the cab area. The installer will have to move in and out of the truck many times and it is a faster install to have a clean area with maximum workspace. If the controls are to be mounted to a closet or cabinet wall, the contents of the area should be removed from the truck cab.

3.

PLANNING THE DUCT WORK

RETURN AIR GRILLE FIGURE 18 1. Locate one of the gray louver towers from the duct kit for test fitting. Refer to figure 18 for clarification. The towers are usually put in the corners of the sleeper area. The front corners are also used if the rear corners are unavailable. Attempt to locate the towers so the discharged air will not blow on the control panel. Air discharged from the towers onto the control panel will give the thermostat a false reading and the unit controls will not function properly. Remember, the towers are easily cut off to adjust their height to different trucks. Plan on the lower tower adaptor being in place and the area for the three-inch diameter hose hooking up. Check to be sure the bunk can be raised and lowered without interfering with the ductwork. Plan on how the flex duct will be routed to the towers. The shorter and straighter the path of the flex duct the better the unit will perform. One round ball louver is supplied to be placed in the forward wall of the bunk area. When locating the point of installation consider what must be done to route the air duct to this louver. The return air grille supplies air to the inlet of the a/c-heat unit. It must be located on the wall that separates the a/c-heat from the main cabin area. - 22 -

6. 7. 8.

INSTALLING THE DUCTWORK


1. Using the end of the tower, mark the area of the bunk support that must be removed to allow the duct to end in the storage area. Cut away the unwanted material. Insert the tower into the storage area and place the lower hose adaptor on the duct. If the tower needs to be shorter, mark the duct at the cut location Remove the duct and cut the duct using a standard hack saw. Replace the tower, and secure the lower hose adaptor using the #10x5/8 drill point screws supplied. Secure the duct tower to the interior wall using the #10x1-1/4 drill point screws supplied. The three-inch ball louver is mounted by using the three-inch hole saw. Drill a three-inch hole in the forward wall of the bunk and secure the ball louver using the #6x5/8 black screws supplied. Route the flex duct from the a/c-heat unit to the towers and ball louver. A three-inch hole saw can be used to cut holes through the walls in the storage area as necessary.

10. Secure the duct hose to the hose adaptors using a seventeen-inch tie-wrap on each hose adaptor. 11. The return air grille is installed in the wall between the unit and the main cabin by marking the location and cutting away the unwanted material using a saber saw. See figure 16. 12. Secure the grille using #6x5/8 black flat head screws.

V. INSTALLING THE A/C HEATER

IX. INITIAL SYSTEM START UP


NOTE: The air condition is designed to force the compressor clutch off when cabin temperature is less than 60 degrees, and force the compressor clutch on when cabin temperatures are above 90 degrees. In shops with cold environments, the system heater can be used to raise the cabin temperature above 60 degrees to engage the compressor clutch.

PURGING AIR FROM SYSTEM


1. At the control panel, set the mode switch to heat, set the fan switch to low, rotate the temperature knob fully clockwise to maximum heat. Press the start/stop switch to the preheat position for ten seconds.

2.

Rock the start/stop switch up into the start position. The engine should begin turning over immediately. If the engine does not start, hold the start button in for ten seconds, then release. If the engine has not started repeat the steps above at least two more times, before attempting any repairs. If the engine stumbles and quits, the fuel line may not be totally purged. 3. After the engine has started, let it run, and briefly check under truck for coolant/fuel leaks. With the engine running begin adding coolant to the surge tank. When the coolant level in the tank has stabilized at half full, turn the temperature control fully counter clockwise, max cold position. At the surge tank add coolant until the level has stabilized at half full. Let the engine run for about five minutes moving the temperature knob back and forth between hot and cold, and checking the surge tank to add coolant as needed.
