9AB Air-Cooled Condensers available in nominal
capacities of 5, 7% and 10 tons are designed for verti
cal installations with horizontal air flow. They may be
located in any area having unobstructed air circula
tion; the low silhouette permits installation in varied
ground or roof locations. Each unit consists of a direct
drive motor (or motors), fan (or fans), fan guards,
motor mounts, condenser coil with integral subcooling
circuit, wind deflector, and electrical junction box.
Weather Armor* enclosures (which are also provided
for 09DC016) have a baked enamel finish which pro
vides maximum weather protection.
FEATURES
• Multiple Fans and Motors provide inexpensive, re
liable system control in intermediate seasons. Standby
protection is provided in case one fan motor fails.
• Subcooling permits greater liquid lift in vertical
risers without liquid flashing. Special coil circuiting
cools liquid refrigerant below the saturated condensing
temperature, extending system capacity without in
creasing motor horsepower.
• Direct Drive Fans require no tensioning device or
pulleys. Alignment problems, belt maintenance, and
friction loss are eliminated.
• Three Types of Head Pressure Control (Accessory)
are available to maintain a refrigeration load by hold-

09DC Air-Cooled Condensers are available in 15-,
20-, 25-, 30- and 40-ton sizes. The 25-, 30- and 40-ton
sizes are designed for use in multiples to give capacities
of 50, 60 and 80 tons. Each size has three direct drive
fans, three motors and motor mounts, three guards,
a junction box, and a condenser coil with integral sub
cooling circuit. The 20-, 25-, 30- and 40-ton units, all
using vertical air flow, may have 2 or 3 circuits, each
with an integral subcooling circuit. Each circuit may
be used as a separate condenser for a single system.

CONDENSER RATINGSTYPICAL ARRANGEMENTS
(Two-Module Condensers)
la. Select minimum or optimum charge ratings.
Use optimum charge when compressor, condenser, and
evaporator may be selected as a package and the com
ponents may be balanced* to secure maximum benefits
of 15 F subcooling (for example, in selecting 09DC con
densers with Carrier compressors rated at 15 F sub
cooling). Optimum charge activates the subcooling
circuit, resulting in higher system capacity at slightly
higher head pressure and corresponding condensing
temperature. Liquid refrigerant leaves the system sub
cooled to a stable condition to allow greater length of
refrigerant run or lift.
Otherwise, use minimum charge which gives higher heaf
rejection, since entire surface of condenser and sub
cooling circuit is used for condensing only. Minimum
charge ratings, however, do not represent greatest po
tential system capacity. They are comparable to com
petitive ratings without subcooling.
b. List the refrigerant, total heat rejection (THR), suction
and discharge temperatures as determined from com
pressor data.
2. Determine condensing temperature (saturated discharge
temperature minus discharge line loss).
3. Determine temperature difference (condensing tempera
ture minus entering air temp).
4. Enter Condenser Ratings table (minimum or optimum
charge as determined in Step 1) at selected refrigerant
and established temperature difference. Read across
to total heat rejection equal to or greater than required.
Saturated Disch Temp...................................................................................122 F
Saturated Suction Temp..................................................................................40 F
Entering Air Temp...........................................................................................95 F
Disch Line Loss ............................................................................................2 F
2. Cond Temp = 122 F-2 F - 120 F
3. TD= 120 F-95 F-25 F
4. Enter Condenser Ratings table (minimum charge) and
select 09DC016 with 15,2 tons THR. (Note that with
optimum charge this unit has THR of 14.8 tons which
does not meet specifications).

HEAD PRESSURE CONTROL
General — Efficient operation of evaporator expansion
valves requires a 90 F minimum condensing temperature for
100% compressor capacity, 80 F for 75% capacity, and 70 F
for 50% and 25% capacity. The capacity of an air-cooled
condenser increases with increased temperature difference
(cond temp minus entering air temp) and decreases with
decreased temperature difference. Therefore, a drop in en
tering air temperature lowers the condensing temperature
for a given heat rejection. When outdoor air temperatures
drop below prescribed minimums, some form of head pres
sure control is required. (See Head Pressure Control Data
table for minimum outdoor temperatures and specific head
pressure controls for 9AB and 09DC units.)
9AB, 09DC Head Pressure Controls — Head pressure on
9AB and 09DC condensers may be controlled by the Motor-
master Electronic Control, by fan cycling, or by fan cycling
supplemented by the Motormaster or a modulating damper.
Motormaster — When outdoor temperatures are low enough
to cause low condensing pressures, the Motormaster modu
lates the motor speed of one condenser fan from full to zero
rpm to maintain a constant saturated condensing tempera
ture. The Motormaster, available only with single-phase
motors (on unit sizes thru 09DC016), may be the sole con
trol on single fan units or may be used in conjunction with
fan cycling control on multiple fan units for full year-round
head pressure control.
Fan Cycling — The fan cycling control, used primarily
during intermediate seasons, cycles one fan or two fans.
On two-module condensers (09DC034, 064, 024), the fan
cycling control cycles four of the six condenser fans (two
of three in each module) from a two-step thermostat respond
ing to variations in ambient temperature. The first step of
the thermostat cuts out two corresponding fan motors, one in
each module; the second step cuts out a second pair of cor
responding fan motors. The two condenser modules are
controlled from a single, completely wired fan cycling con
trol box consisting of one two-stage thermostat, one power
and one control terminal block, and two quick-connect re
ceptacles (one at the end of a 10-foot flexible conduit).

plications with multiple DX coils, the compressor may be unloaded
while individual coil(s) are still fully loaded. In this case, expan

SCHEMATIC WIRING DIAGRAM
— CONDENSER CONTROL
(Single Refrigerant Circuit, Single Phase)
Head Pressure Control Damper — An accessory head
pressure control damper is available to supplement the
fan cycling control on the 09DC024 and larger units. The
09DC054, 064, and 084 require two damper packages in
stalled for parallel throttling of air to the two uncontrolled
fans. Each damper assembly has a pressure-operated actu
ator to operate the damper blades which modulate inlet air
flow to the uncontrolled fan in response to head pressure
variations. The pressure sensing tubing (capillary) for both
pressure actuators is connected to the same point in the
liquid line serving the last refrigerant circuit to shut down.
Each capillary is provided with a 1/4-inch flare connection.
A single shut-off valve at the liquid line is recommended,
for service.
sers applied to separate refrigeration cycles present special
problems when head pressure is controlled from a single
control point. For such applications, more positive system
control may be ensured by using individual condensers and
head pressure controls.
LP — Low Pressure Switch ^
HP — High Pressure Switch
NOTES:
1. For three-phase service, holding coils are wired in parallel.
2. Multicircuit units may be similarly controlled by wiring fan motor
holding coil(s) in series with thermostat, compressor overloads,
and low pressurestat of each refrigerant circuit
3. Two or more condensers, piped in parallel on a single refrig
erant circuit, must be of equal size and wired in parallel.
