No hot decks. . .no cold decks. . . no zoning dampers. . .no energy waste!

It’s what you don’t get with Carrier’s Zone-Mizer Modular Multizone unit that sets it apart from all the others.
You don’t get hot decks or cold decks because the Carrier design gives each zone module its own cooling coil and heating section. Each zone module operates independently. One unit can heat, cool, dehumidify, reheat, and ventilate up to 12 different zones simul taneously. All this means real energy savings. . .there’s no wasteful duplica tion of effort as in hot deck/cold deck
units. For still more energy savings, Zone-Mizer provides up to 3 steps of electric heat or gas heat with an inter
mittent pilot ignition in every zone.
Something else you don’t get. . . zoning dampers. Since the Carrier de sign doesn’t have hot and cold decks, it doesn’t need zoning dampers. By elimi nating them from the picture, you eliminate the adjustments, service, and
operating problems that go along with zoning dampers.
Five sizes, offering capacities to 37 tons, provide equipment flexibility and economy. One large unit may serve where 2 units were required before; or units of different sizes may be mix/ matched to deliver the heating/cooling capacity required in a specific applica tion. And the choice of gas, elecfric or hot water/glycol coils allows you to select a unit that can deliver maximurn operating economy and convenience by
taking advantage of an already available heating plant or favorable area fuel rates.
1 Etched solid copper circuit
panels have interchangeable plug-in relays to minimize parts stocking Cir cuit breakers that may be used as dis connect switches, terminal boards to simplify installation of accessories, a control circuit shutoff switch and 24­volt controls are all standard.
Motorized outdoor air inlet
damper — A simple rheostat adjust
ment on the unit (or on the optional re mote control panel) sets the damper to control the amount of outdoor air admitted.
5 Dependable cooling — Each ser
viceable hermetic compressor system has cylinder unloaders for capacity con trol and electric power savings. Crank case heaters, accumulators, filter driers and low-ambient starting controls are also standard.
Time Guard® electrical circuit pre
vents rapid cycling of the compressor if
occupant tampers with the thermostat. Compressor cannot short-cycle on a safety device, such as the low-pressure switch, should someone forget to clean the air filters.
Capacity control permits a wide oper ating range. During light loads the com pressor automatically unloads to re duce operating costs and maintain steady compressor operation. When the load drops below the minimum
unloader stage, the hot gas bypass con trol provides continuous cooling operation.
Built-in safety controls prevent damage to unit components. Included are high- and low-pressure switches, overtemperature limit switches and overload protection for all motors.
When specifying a multizone unit, choose the one that makes a point of doing something about installation problems. . .the Carrier Zone-Mizer
Modular Multizone. It’s a sturdy, one­piece unit — factory-wired, piped, and charged. It arrives ready to be set in place on the specially designed roof curb. Make the power and control con nections and that’s it. Initial adjust ments are trouble free — you won’t even need a factory engineer at start up. The total package carries the UL label or is design certified by AGA.
DG
3 Fused 115-volt convenience out
let in the control box provides power at the unit for work lights and small power tools.
4 Motormaster® solid-state con
denser fan speed control permits
year-round operation of refrigeration system down to -20 F ambient.
6 Polyurethane foam sandwich
access panels are of Weather Armor
galvanneal steel. Their thermal resis tance prevents sweating at outdoor conditions up to 77 F dew point And they are strong enough to support a 250-pound man.
/ Rugged extruded aluminum
frames and protective grilles provide
strength and good looks. Unit will not sag during rigging.
Low silhouette — The cabinet has no vents or hoods to break up the clean appearance. The curb-mounted unit
seldom requires a parapet to hide it
from street level view.
<5 Humidry® coil — This separate
cooling coil dehumidifies the outdoor air before it is mixed with the return air to prevent high indoor relative humidities in humid weather and during partial load operation.
‘ 5 Large filter area — Over 41 square
feet of standard filter area is factory
supplied. Filter tracks will accept one-in. or 2-in., high- or low-velocity, permanent or throwaway, standard or high-efficiency filters.
10 Electric heater section (SOME)
— Each zone module has its own 2- or 3-stage electric heater assembly or hot water/glycol heating coil. Electric heaters have 24-volt relays and 115-volt contactors. Each heating element has circuit breakers and automatic thermal reset. Each leg has its own heat limiter (fusible link).
Each hot water/glycol heating coil has its own solenoid operated shutoff valve and balancing valve. All heating coils are prepiped to supply and return manifolds which also include a bleed valve.
Gas heating (48MA) — Each zone module has stainless steel burners, Porcelon™ heat exchangers and its own redundant gas valve. Natural gas units also have a regulator for each gas valve. Intermittent pilot ignition and forced draft combustion are standard on all units.

Zonc-Mizer^” Modular Multizone concept. How it works. . .

Outdoor air enterirvg the unit thru the side louvers is filtered and then cooled and dehumidified by the Humidry® cooling coil when mechanical cooling is operating. Return air entering the unit from below is mixed with this condi tioned air The mixture is then filtered. After passing thru the indoor air fans, the air is discharged into the individual
zone modules. The air passing thru
each zone module is either cooled or
heated in response to a signal from the thermostat controlling that module. This treated air then continues to the individual zone duct systems, thus pro viding a constant air pattern and volume on each cooling coil and heating assembly
Each zone module cooling coil has its own solenoid valve to admit refrigerant when needed. When 2 or more mod
ules are grouped for a larger zone re
t
quirement, 2-stage cooling can be provided. . .and controlled by one simple 24-volt mercury bulb thermostat
This condenser end view of unit (034 and 040) shows the 3 outdoor air fans and the side condenser air inlet grilles. The 2 end panels may be easily removed for control box and compressor accessibility.

and why it’s best.

Low operating costs

On partial load, the Carrier compres sors unload cylinders to match com pressor output to cooling needed with up to 6 steps of reduction. To maintain balanced operation, the hot gas bypass system diverts hot refrigerant to the outdoor air cooling coil as needed.
There is no mixing of warm and cold airstreams in the modular design. Just that amount of energy required to heat or cool a given zone is used — and no more.
Heating is available 3 ways. . .
Electric heating, provided by 2- or 3-stage electric heaters in each module, gives up to 36 steps of capacity, again
using the minimum amount of energy.
Hot water/glycol heat may be speci fied to utilize an already available heating plant.
Gas heating models utilize inter
mittent pilot ignition in each module designed to consume a minimum amount of energy.
Low»temperature operating capa bility. . .You can use the economizer
cycle with outdoor air for “free cooling,” as with competing units. However, with
Carrier’s head pressure controlled re
frigeration system, you can often save
money by using refrigeration to cool the space instead. So-called “free
cooling” is expensive if a large quantity
of cool outdoor air must be heated for the zones which do not require cooling. The Carrier refrigeration system can operate at outdoor temperatures down to -20 F. The Carrier modular design, therefore, is not dependent on an economizer cycle for cooling at low outdoor temperatures.
Superior humidity control
One of the major concerns in multizone applications has been the control of humidity, especially in schools where moisture comes from large groups of people as well as from outdoor venti lation air. The basic Carrier design elim inates this problem. During mechanical cooling, all outdoor air that passes thru
the Humidry® outdoor air cooling coil is dehumidified whenever any zones require cooling. The air is then further dehumidified when it passes thru the zone module cooling coil.
If further dehumidification should be required for any or all zones, reheat can be added easily. A humidistat, installed in the conditioned space to override the thermostat, energizes the cooling coil for that zone.

Ease of service

The Zone-Mizer™ Modular Multizone uses simple, familiar, commercial, ther mostatic controls for each module, eliminating the need for factory experts and complex start-up and service procedures. The printed control circuit board has clearly marked terminals for easy connection of standard 2-stage heating and one- or 2-stage cooling thermostats, which are located in each zone.
Identical relays plug into the circuit
board. Modules can be easily combined
to serve larger spaces by placing factory-supplied jumper wires on the premarked terminals.
The entire control system is neatly organized in one location. For excellent accessibility, all circuit breakers project outside so that any motor can be dis connected without opening the high­voltage box. This often eliminates the need for separate field-supplied disconnects.
The handsome Carrier mercury bulb type thermostats control heating and cooling modes. They are available with a locking device which requires an Allen wrench for access, or you can allow the zone occupant to set his own temperature.
Access to the Zone-Mizer Modular Multizone is thru removable side panels held in place with simple fasteners. Top
panels may also be removed for com
plete access to unit interior.
In short, the local installing dealer or contractor can handle all service and will have available, from the nearest Carrier distributor, any parts required.

Accessories and factoryii'stalled options

formance Data Section and select the unit that meets or exceeds the grand total load at the specified conditions. (Interpolation may be necessary to obtain unit rating at certain conditions; extrapolations are not advised. Contact Carrier Application Engineering tor performance data at points beyond the range of published tables.) Tbe 024 size unit does not have sufficient capacity to meet load requirements at any cfm. The 028 size exceeds load require ments; however, it is the smallest unit that meets specifica tions. Thus, the 48MA/50ME028at: 9000 cfm; 1000 cfm OA; 95 F/75 OA temperature; and 75 F/50% Rh room design has a Total Capacity (TC) of 282,000 Btuh, Sensible Heat Ca pacity (SHC) of 219,000 Btuh and a compressor kw of 27.5. Calculate the Room Total Capacity (RTC) and the Room Sensible Heat Capacity (RSHC) by deducting the outdoor air load from the unit capacity. The outdoor air load with respect to room conditions is:
Total Heat (OATH) = 4.5 (hoa - hroom) (OA cfm)
= 4.5 (38.61 - 28.29) (1000) = 46,440 Btuh
Sensible Heat (OASH)
- 1.09 (toa - troom) (OA cfm) = 1.09 (95 - 75) (1000) = 21,800 Btuh
The unit capacity available to offset room loads is:
RoomTC = UnitTC - Outdoor Air TC
= 282,000 - 46,440 = 235,560 Btuh
Room SHC = Unit SHC - Outdoor Air Sensible Heat
= 219,000 - 21,800 = 197,200 Btuh
For comparison.
Actual Load
GTL = 272,440 Btuh SL = 219,000 Btuh RTL = 226,000 Btuh RSL = 197,200 Btuh
Actual Unit Capacity
TC = 282,000 Btuh SHC = 219,000 Btuh RTC = 235,560 Btuh RSHC = 197,200 Btuh
The 48MA/50ME size meets or exceeds the total and zone load requirements at the specified conditions. The excess RTC decreases space average relative humidity slightly below the room design of 50%. By increasing air quantity above 9000 cfm, this excess latent capacity can be converted to additional sensible capacity if desired.
Since the modular multizone is a constant volume machine, proportion the selected supply cfm per zone to satisfy each zone’s peak load condition.
Divide room sensible capacities (RSC) equally among the modules if an equal cfm is going to each. In this example, the 48MA/50ME028 has 10 modules and the nominal cfm is 900 cfm per module and equal cfm’s are not going to each.
Vary the cfm to each zone (with field-supplied manual
dampers in zone ducts) to match different zone require ments. Since the original rating was based on 9000 cfm supply air, all variations must total 9000 cfm. When the cfm
is changed (by some percent) from the nominal in a specific
module, use the room capacity multipliers in the Zone Cooling Capacity Multiplier Table to correct room TC and room SHC for that zone. Capacity versus cfm changes for the example is given in the Capacity vs Cfm Change table.
By analyzing each zone’s ratio of deviation from equal
sensible heat allocation, determine the proper cfm change. In the example, if building room SHC is 197,200 Btuh and
10 zones are used, each zone’s normal room SHC is 19,720 Btuh. But if Zone 3 has 22,505 Btuh room SHC, then
by ratio of 22,505: 19,720 or 1.14, the cfm change is +20%.
Correspondingly, if Zone 1 had 16,935 Btuh room SHC,
the cfm change is -20%.
In applications where the zone selection is not an incre
ment of the number of unit modules (i.e. one zone requiring 500 cfm in a 48MA/50ME028 with 10,000 cfm), refer to Module Cfm Limits (page 36), Application Data section for details on using cfm’s below 600 cfm/module.

Determine Heating Capacity:
The specified requirement for electric heat dictates the
selection of a 50ME028 unit with a kw option that meets
or exceeds the heating load.
The Electric Resistance Heater Data table (page 30) indi cates that the 028 unit has heating capacity options of 66, 88 and 132 kw. The 132 kw option is selected as it provides adequate heat for this application. The kw/zone and number of heat stages available are:

Stages of heat are controlled individually in the small zones or collectively in large zones to provide flexible and continuous control for each zone.

Determine fan requirements

For 48MA/50ME operation, cfm range per module is 600 to 1200 cfm. Lower flow volumes are permissible if only first stage of heat is operated. Volumes above 1200 cfm may cause water blow-off during cooling.
Since the various unit zones operate at different air quantities and different external resistances, identify the zone having the highest static pressure requirement for the supply duct and supply outlet.
Usually, the longest duct run to the last outlet, with the greatest number of offsets and elbows, has the greatest static pressure requirement. Assume a duct friction analysis has been made and the cfm and static pressure are:
Zone No. CFM
The total unit (02810or 030) cfm is 9000. Zones 4 and 7 have 3 and 2 modules, respectively, “ganged” together to comply with the limitation of 1200 cfm per module
The cfm for Zone 2 is 1080 with an ESP of 0.8 in. wg. This module appears to possess the highest friction loss. There fore, the main fan static pressure is established at 8 in. wg ESP.
Enter Fan Performance table at 9000 cfm, .8 in. wg ESP and read: 1020 rpm and 5.4 bhp. The 028 indoor fan motor data shows the standard 10 hp motor with a maximum bhp of 11.5. Therefore, 5 4 bhp for this selection is satisfactory.
In the Physical Data table, 2 pulley selections are available with the 028: Pulley A, shipped mounted; Pulley B, shipped in the blower compartment. Pulley A has a fixed pitch and at 1095 rpm is close enough to the required cfm and should be used. Pulley B at 1230 rpm allows selection of the unit at higher cfm’s and static pressures.
