Standard Features
• Operating Efficiency - All cooling units provide a SEER
of 13.0.
All heat pump units provide operating efficiency of 13.0
SEER and 7.7 HSPF. All efficiencies meet legislated
minimum levels.
• Lower Installation Cost - Installation time and costs are
reduced by easy power and control wiring connections.
The small base dimension means less space is required
on the ground or roof, plus, the installer can fit this unit
between the wheel wells of full size pick-up truck. All
models are well under 400 pounds.
All units are completely wired, charged with R-22 and
tested prior to shipment. Unique test stations using a new
part numbers are verified via computers at assembly. Vital
run test statistics such as system pressure, motor
currents, air velocity and temperature, unit vibration, and
gas system safeties are monitored and recorded by the
system to insure unit performance.
Equal size, side supply and return duct connections
allows easy hook-up of ducts to match low crawl spaces
without transition pieces.
• Utility Connections Made Easy - Electric utility
knockouts are provided through the side of the unit. Utility
connections can be made quickly and with a minimum
amount of field labor. A field supplied and field installed
electrical disconnect switch must be installed.
• Condensate Pan - A non-corrosive, long-lasting, watertight pan is positioned below the evaporator coil to collect
Unitary Products Group3
246836-LTG-E-0107
and drain all condensate. Less collection of stagnate
condensate will build-up. The condensate pan conforms
to ASHRAE 62-89 standards (Ventilation for Acceptable
Indoor Air Quality).
• Condensate Drain - The heavy duty, 3/4 inch NPTI
copper connection is more durable over time. The
connection is rigidly mounted to assure proper fit and leak
tight seal.
• Durable Finish - With a heavy duty cabinet made of prepainted, galvanized steel the neutral color blends into
surrounding areas. The pre-paint provides a better paint
to steel bond, which resists corrosion and rust creep,
insures less fading when exposed to sunlight and offers a
more attractive on site appearance.
• Full Perimeter Base Rails - The base rails provide a
solid foundation for the entire unit and protects the unit
during shipment. The rails provide fork lift access from all
sides. On applications where the unit is placed on a pad,
the base will keep the unit off the pad to deter corrosion.
• More Attractive Appearance - A single piece Water
Shed top cover containing a top discharge condenser fan
arrangement requires less square footage on installation
and provides a wider variety of installations. The one
piece design adds greater water integrity.
• Top Discharge - The top discharge condenser fan does
not disrupt neighboring areas or dry-out vegetation
surrounding the unit. The warm air from the top mounted
fan is blown up away from the structure and any
landscaping. This allows compact location on multi-unit
applications.
• Condenser Coil Guard - A multi-piece totally enclosed,
rigidly mounted condenser coil guard provides protection
from objects after installation and provides protection
during transit.
• Low Operating Sound Level - The upward air flow
carries the normal operating noise up and away from the
living area. The rigid top panel effectively isolates any
motor sound. Isolator mounted compressor and the
rippled fins of the condenser coil muffle the normal fan
motor and compressor operating sounds.
• Fan System - All models operate over a wide range of
design conditions with a constant torque fan motor. These
units have 5 speed taps to provide greater on site flexibility
to match comfort requirements.
• Protected Compressor - The compressor is internally
protected against high pressure and temperature. This is
accomplished by the simultaneous operation of high
pressure relief valve and a temperature sensor which protect
the compressor if undesirable operating conditions occur.
• Pressure Switches - High pressure switches standard in
all heat pump units. When abnormal conditions are
sensed through the pressure switches, the unit will lock
out after 3 tries preventing any further operation until reset
or problem is corrected.
• Exclusive Coil Design - Grooved copper tubes and
enhanced aluminum fin construction improves heat
transfer for maximum efficiency and durability.
• Low Maintenance - Long life, permanently lubricated
condenser and evaporator fan motor bearings need no
annual maintenance adding greater reliability to the unit.
• Secured Service Access Ports - Protected, externally
mounted, re-usable service access ports are provided on
both the high and low lines for ease of evacuating and
charging the system. No final field mounting required.
• Easy Service Access - A large, single panel covers the
electrical controls makes servicing easy. The blower
compartment has a large panel which when removed will
allow the blower fan assembly to slide-out for ease of
maintenance and trouble shooting.
• Replacement Parts - The installer requires no special
training to replace any of the components of these units
and does not need to maintain an inventory of unique
parts.
Field Installed Accessories
• Wall Thermostat - The units are designed to operate with
24-volt electronic and electro-mechanical thermostats.
• Electric Heat Kit - Available in 3 different kW capacities
(5, 10 and 15 kW). (Single phase only)
• Start Assist Kits - Available for all models.
• Outdoor Thermostat - Available for all heat pump models.
