Superior Features
• Access doors are provided in areas subject to scheduled maintenance. Walk-in
doors are constructed with stainless steel piano hinges, perimeter gaskets, and
zinc cast lockable handles that operate from a single point.
• Aluminum tread plate oor covering in appropriate equipment access areas for
improved durability and safety.
• Selectable number of draw-through or blow-through direct drive backward
curved plenum fans allows design exibility for quieter applications and
redundancy for applications where unit up time is critical.
• Microprocessor controls are compatible with BACnet®, Modbus, LonTalk®, and
Fox protocols for integration with a variety of controls systems.
• Corrosion resistant polyurethane paint exceeds a 2,500-hour salt spray test.
• Refrigerant circuits are provided with removable core lter driers and isolation
valves for ease of service; no need to cut the refrigerant line as is done with
brazed in lter driers.
• Unit specic color-coded wiring diagrams are provided in point-to-point and
ladder form and are laminated and permanently axed inside the control
compartment for ease of service.
• Factory installed, sensible or enthalpy controlled , AMCA Certied Class 2 low
leakage gear driven economizer dampers allows for free cooling.

protect them in corrosive environments.
• Interior corrosion protection option protects interior components of the
unit in corrosive environments.
• Option boxes are segments of the unit that can be left empty from the
factory so that components may be installed in the eld without the
trouble of installation and service in a crowded cabinet.

Air-Cooled, Water-Cooled, or Evaporative-Cooled Condensers
Air-Cooled Condensing
Microchannel condenser coils are more ecient due to their enhanced
heat transfer. They are also up to 30 percent lighter and use less refrigerant
than traditional n and tube coils. The outward facing coils are intrusion
protected with perforated metal screens. All condenser coils are designed for
minimum 10°F of refrigerant sub-cooling. VFD can be installed on the
condenser fans for head pressure control and greater operating
temperature range, as well as to provide reduced sound levels at o design
ambient temperatures. All condenser fans are direct drive, axial ow propeller
type, and discharge vertically.
Evaporative-Cooled Condensing
When compared to air-cooled designs these units deliver both
outstanding energy eciency and signicant operational cost
savings. Energy cost reduction can be 20% to 40% annually dependent on
geographic location. Geographic locations that typically require a central
chiller and cooling tower are considered primary locations for application of
the evaporative-cooled condenser RZ Series rooftop unit. Factory installed
AAON evaporative-cooled condenser, with air-cooled de-superheater
and variable frequency drive controlled fans, can be 20-40% more energy
ecient than a comparable air-cooled condenser, can use 22-100% less
water than a conventional evaporative-cooled condenser, and require
22-100% less chemical usage than a conventional evaporative cooled
condenser. Interior of evaporative-cooled condenser is constructed of 304
stainless steel and other non-corrosive materials. De-superheater coils include
polymer e-coating for corrosion protection.
Water-Cooled Condensing
The energy ecient water-cooled units are of particular application value
when there exists an accessible water source or when cooling tower water is
available. The standard water-cooled RZ Series units include these features:
• Shell and tube refrigerant-to-water heat exchangers.
• Each heat exchanger is provided with are movable and cleanable type
basket lter.
• Heat exchanger piping connections are made within the condensing
section of the roof top unit.
Air Handling Units
The RZ Series also ts the job when units are required without compressors.
The unit will be built without a condensing section and walk-in compressor
and control vestibule. All other features and options are readily available. Air
handling units may include the following options:
• Supplied with a DX coil and expansion valves.
• Supplied with a chilled water coil in 4, 6, or 8 rows.
• The unit may be specied with any of the heating options to provide a
year-round rooftop heating and cooling package.
