Features and Benefits
The ThinLine™ 3G Advantage
New ThinLine 3G vertical fan coils combine the features most
desired in a fan coil by building owners, specifying engineers
and contractors alike. The result is a new, third generation fan
coil design that meets the needs of all three.
For building owners
ThinLine 3G fan coils offer quiet operation. They fully comply
with ASHRAE 62.1-2004 standards for high indoor air quality.
And they offer a range of control options that can enhance
occupant comfort and reduce operating costs. These units are
also easy to maintain, with easy access to filters, fan motors
and control systems.
Figure 2: Unit Features
For specifying engineers
ThinLine 3G fan coils provide great versatility. A variety of
vertical models are available with multiple arrangements and
configurations.
• Coil options include two, three, and four-row main coils to
provide precise heating and cooling performance for any
requirement. Separate, single-row reheat coils (hot water or
steam) are available. Separate, one-row or two-row preheat
coils are also available with same or opposite-end coil
connections.
• Multiple control options range from a simple fan speed
switch to a DDC interface board that can tie into most
building automation systems. Non-communicating or
communicating control options for LonTalk and BacNet will
be available soon. Contact your McQuay representative for
details.
4McQuay Catalog 722
Features and Benefits
• Grille options include stamped inlet and outlet grilles and
multidirectional grilles. Aluminum fresh air boxes are also
available.
• Appearance options include cabinet units with a durable,
powder paint finish and decorative wall plate panels for
hideaway units in cupola white or antique ivory. Custom
colors are available as a special. Leveling feet are available,
as are rear cabinet extensions in 4 and 8-inch depths.
Tamper- proof units are another option, with 16-gauge steel
panels, a return grille and key-operated, locking access
doors.
For contractors
For contractors, ThinLine 3G fan coils feature Quick Ship
options for fast delivery and a number of features that make
installation fast and simple.
• Factory-mounted, wired and tested valve and piping
packages for quick hookup to the building piping to reduce
installation time. Packages can also be shipped loose with
the unit. Valve and piping packages are designed for
entering-water-temperature sampling. This eliminates the
need for inefficient bleed lines to sense automatic
changeover on two-pipe units.
• Factory-mounted and tested controls minimize field setup.
Depending on the option requested, controls can be wired
with a 24 VAC transformer to provide a single-source power
connection to the unit. Several options are available for unit
or wall mounted thermostats and sensors. All wall-mounted
thermostat and zone sensors require only low-voltage
control wiring from the device to the unit control box.
• Easy, end-panel removal for hookup of electrical and piping
connections minimizes field-labor time and cost.
• End compartment panels can be removed for installation and
service without removing the front panel covering the fan
blower section. This means that airflow through the filter
and coil is not jeopardized for taking temperature and
performance readings.
• Both the main drain pan and optional secondary drain pan
are easily accessed for cleaning.
• The fan deck and motor assembly is easily removed when
required for service.

available without a valve and piping package in either a righthand or left-hand configuration. All packages are fully leak
tested.
Factory-installed packages are sweated to the coil and wired to
the unit control box or DDC. Chilled and hot water pipes are
the only field connections required. Piping is 1/2” nominal
copper (5/8” OD).
Figure 5: Four-pipe deluxe valve and piping package
Leveling Legs Option
Field or factory-installed kits are available with 0” to 1" adjustment
for positive leveling of floor-mounted units.
Raised Sub-Bases and ExtendedWidth End Pockets
Extended-height subbases and extended end pockets are

most requirements. Therefore, extended pockets are
seldom needed.
Pre-determined field connection points are located for easy
access. See Figure 6, page 11 for connection locations. The
installing contractor can pre-pipe the building water
connections before the units arrive on the jobsite. A label
clearly identifies chilled and hot water connection points on
every unit.
All chilled water piping and components are located to allow
condensate to drain into the secondary drain pan. Insulation of
the factory piping package is not required.
McQuay Catalog 7229
Options and Accessories
Available Packages
Numerous piping packages are available to match your
configuration. Additional components can be added to meet
your exact requirements, including P/T ports, unions, and
flexible, stainless steel hoses.
Shut-off Only Packages
Shut-off only piping packages provide interconnecting copper
piping and shut-off ball valves for easily connecting supply
and return lines to the unit. Four-pipe packages include a
venting valve for the preheat or reheat coil. Primary coils on
all units have an integral venting valve.
Basic Packages
Basic valve and piping packages add control valves to the
Shut-off Only package. All McQuay control valves are
factory-mounted in the supply water pipe. See Control Valve
Options‚ page 10 for more information on the variety of
control valves available.
Enhanced Packages
Enhanced valve and piping packages replace the ball valve on
the Basic package’s supply water pipe with a manual circuit
setter, also known as a manual flow control valve. The circuit
setter acts as both a flow-setting device and a shut-off valve. It
allows water flow through the fan coil to be set quickly and
accurately.
P/T ports are included, which are used to measure the
temperature or pressure drop across the valve. This pressure
drop can be compared to factory-supplied tables that relate the
pressure drop to a specific flow rate. The valve also has a
memory stop so that the correct setting can be found quickly.
Premium Packages
Premium valve and piping packages replace the Enhanced
package’s manual circuit setter with an automatic circuit setter.
The circuit setter includes a cartridge within the valve body
that is sized to allow a specific flow rate through the coil. This
valve sets flow through the coil without any action required by
a system piping balancer.
Deluxe Packages
Deluxe valve and piping packages add a strainer to the
Premium package. The strainer is attached to the supply water
pipe at the coil connections. The strainer body is cast brass
construction with a stainless steel mesh that is easily removed
for cleaning. The strainer is available with or without an
optional draining (blow-off) valve.
Control V a lve Opt ions
Except for Shut-off Only packages, all valve and piping
packages include control valves for controlling water flow. All
McQuay control valves are factory-assembled and mounted in
the supply water pipe downstream of the coil. Several options
are available as follows.
Two-Way/Two-Position Valves
These valves will be either fully open or fully closed in
response to a line voltage (115 or 265-277 VAC) or a 24 VAC
signal from the McQuay thermostat or controller. Some means
of relieving pump head pressure should be accounted for when
two-way valves are selected. Normally open or normally
closed valves are available. Both are spring-return.
Three-Way, Two-Position Valves
These valves either allow full water flow through the coil or
divert the flow through a bypass line. The valves respond to a
line voltage (115 or 265-277 VAC) or to a 24 VAC signal from
the McQuay thermostat or controller. All standard three-way
valves come with a fixed-balance orifice in the bypass line to
compensate for flow balancing in the bypass position,
eliminating the need for an additional balancing valve.
Normally open or normally closed valves are available.
Two-Way Modulating Valves
These valves modulate the water flow through the coil in
response to a signal from the McQuay thermostat or controller.
All standard McQuay modulating valves are three-wire
floating point equal percentage valves. Zero to 10 VDC
proportional valves are also available as a special option upon
request. The modulating valves are factory mounted in the
supply water pipe upstream of the coil.
Three-Way Modulating Valves
These valves modulate the water flow through the coil in
response to a signal from the McQuay thermostat or controller.
Three-way valves allow water that is directed through the coil
to mix with water that is directed through the bypass line. This
mixture exits through the leaving water pipe. All modulating
valves are three-wire, floating-point equal percentage valves.
The modulating valves are factory mounted in the supply
water pipe upstream of the coil.
Selecting the Correct Size Modulating Valve
McQuay SelectTools™ software automatically selects the best
modulating valve size for the unit and coil being considered.
By combining the ARI performance data, the coil flow rate
and the DP across the water coil, the water coil Cv is
calculated and the best matching modulating port size is
selected.

Unit Selection
Unit Selection
Unit Selection
The achievement of an efficient fan coil system is dependent
upon accurate system design and proper equipment selection.
Variations, limitations and control of fan coil systems, design
conditions and design load calculations are not described in
detail in this catalog. More detailed information may be found
in the ASHRAE Guide. This catalog contains ARI certified
ratings and application ratings for ThinLine 3G fan coil units
from which the design engineer can make initial unit selections
to meet the requirements of the system.
The mechanical system designer must select the unit types best
suited to the overall system before the actual unit sizes can be
determined. The factors that generally influence this decision
are intended building usage, building layout, architectural and
aesthetic values, economics, geographical location, and type of
maintenance service available. The general results may be a
mixture of various unit types within a given system. McQuay
International manufactures a fan coil unit to meet your every
need including ThinLine, HiLine and Large Capacity models.
For McQuay product information, please go to
www.mcquay.com.
Unit size
The capacity ratings presented in this catalog are provided for
initial unit selection only. Water cooling and heating
capacities, unit air flow, static pressure and glycol solutions ar
all incorporated into the program to provide the best possible
selection. Consult your McQuay representative for a selection
tailored to your application.
Unit sizes for the ideal system should be selected by
calculating the peak load requirements due to unusually high
occupancy or severe climatic conditions and with fan
operating at high speed. Ordinary day to day cooling and
heating requirements are then achieved at low and medium
speeds.
The initial unit selection should be checked for air volume in
the design system and the cooling capacities checked at the
actual operating conditions. While units selected on the basis
of sensible load will generally meet the total cooling load, total
load should be checked in all cases.
The unit size is generally selected on the basis of matching the
sensible cooling capacity of the unit with the calculated
requirements when operating at high speed.
Basic design data
Prior to selecting the individual unit sizes, the design engineer
must fix or determine the following factors:
• Inside and outside wet and dry bulb design temperatures.
• Total and sensible heat gains and losses of the area to be
served.
• Ventilation air.
• Properties of the heating and cooling medium.
• Available electric power service.
• Any special design requirements of the building or system.
Coil types
Standard coils are designed to meet both the cooling and
heating requirements in a typical system. Two additional levels
of enhanced primary coils are available to meet the total and
sensible requirements of any application.
Heating requirements for two-pipe systems are generally met
by employing the same water flow rate as cooling and
adjusting the entering hot water temperature to obtain a
matching unit heat output at low fan speed.
Four-pipe systems are generally designed by specifying the
flow rate through the separate heating coil to meet the required
heat load with the fan operating at the desired fan speed.
McQuay offers two coil options for preheat and one option for
reheat.

Engineering Guide Specification
McQuay ThinLine 3G Fan Coil
Engineering Guide Specification
McQuay ThinLine 3G Vertical -floor type and wall/hideaway
type fan coil are furnished as a vertical blow-through with
either a primary coil for cooling only or for heating and
cooling, or with a combination of a primary coil for cooling
and a secondary coil for heating, which can either be in the
preheat or reheat position.
Performance
Unit capacities are certified under Industry Room Fan-Coil Air
Conditioner Certification Program in accordance with ARI
Standard 440-97. All standard units are ETL listed in the
United States and Canada and comply with NFPA 90A
requirements.
General Construction - All Units
The unit includes a chassis, coil(s), fan wheel(s), fan casing(s),
fan board and motor(s). Units also include a noncorrosive,
ABS main drain pan, positively sloped in every plane and
insulated with closed-cell insulation. All units with factory
provided standard piping packages also include a noncorrosive secondary drain pan. Steel parts exposed to moisture
are galvanized and if necessary are insulated to prevent
condensation. The complete fan assembly, which includes the
drain pan and motor is easily removed for service and
maintenance. A quick-disconnect motor electrical plug is also
provided. The standard chassis construction is 18-gage
galvanized steel. The unit is acoustically and thermally
insulated with closed-cell insulation.
Cabinet
The exposed panels and cabinetry are aesthetically designed
and fabricated of heavy gauge steel, available in either 18 or
16 gauge. They have an electrostatically applied, baked-on
powder paint finish available in Antique Ivory as standard.
Cupola White, Soft Gray, Off White and Putty Beige are
available as option. Other colors can be made available upon
request. Standard finish meets ASTM B117 specifications (salt
spray test).
Vertical Cabinet (Flat Top) and Slope Top Units
Discharge air grilles are recessed to resist condensate
formation and provided with either a multi-directional
discharge air grille or a stamped metal grille. Multi-directional
discharge air grilles allow the end-user to change the
discharged air to four different directions by rotating in 90°
increments. Painted and aesthetically designed metal hinged
control access doors are made rigid by channel forming and
constructed to be flush with the top panel. Units equipped with
the tamperproof option have a key-operated locking access
door and tamper-proof access door screws, as well as 16-gauge
front and side panels to help prevent nuisance tampering with
unit and/or controls.
Individual and removable side panels are furnished on both
ends of the unit to allow full access to valves, piping, electrical
connections and optional secondary drain pan without the need
to remove the front. The separate removable front panel allows
full access to fans, motors and the main drain pan. When
requesting a vertical cabinet it is strongly suggested to provide
sub-bases. For McQuay the 3.5" sub-base is a standard part of
the unit. Other heights are available as special option to help
elevate the cabinet units to a specified height; for example, to
reach the bottom of a window sill. The sub-base is also the
area where the motorized fresh air damper is situated. Subbases are 16-gage steel construction and have an oxford
brown/black paint finish. The sub-base depth and width is
identical to the unit's dimensions.
Hideaway (Fully Recessed) Units
Hideaway units are available for top discharge with a duct
collar or for front discharge.
An exposed, finished, decorative Wall plate panel is available
on hideaway units. It is available standard with18-gage steel
construction or tamperproof with 16-gage steel construction.
Wall plates are shipped separately from the unit.
Coils
All water coils are first leak tested at 400 psig (2760 kPa) then
re-tested at 300 psig (690 kPa) after all final piping
connections are made, including valve/piping packages.
Maximum main coil working pressure is 300 psig (2,069 kPa).
Maximum entering water temperature is 200°F (93°C). Tubes
and u-bends are 3/8" (10 mm) OD copper. Fins are aluminum
and are mechanically bonded to the copper tubes. Coil stubouts are 5/8" (16 mm) OD copper tubing. Piping connections
are expanded to accept standard copper tubing 5/8" (16 mm)
OD. Water coil fins have full drawn collars to provide a
continuous surface cover over the entire tube for maximum
heat transfer. Seamless copper tubes are mechanically
expanded into the fins to provide a continuous primary-tosecondary compression bond over the entire finned length for
maximum heat transfer rates.
Water coils are provided with headers of seamless copper
tubing with intruded tube holes to permit expansion and
contraction without creating undue stress or strain. Coil casing
are constructed of galvanized steel. Coil connections are
copper sweat connections with connection size to be
determined by manufacturer based upon the most efficient coil
circuiting. Vent and drain connections are furnish soldered and
installed on the primary coil by the coil connection. An air
vent is provided for the secondary heating coil-factory
installed when provided with a valve package, shipped loose
when valve/piping packages are provided by others. Vent
connections are provided at the highest point to ensure proper
venting. Drain connections are at the lowest point.
McQuay Catalog 72225
Engineering Guide Specification
Primary and Secondary Coils
Primary coils for cooling only or for cooling and heating are
available as 2, 3, 4 row coils and can be used in combination
with a secondary heating coil. Secondary, 1-row heating coils
are available in the preheat or reheat position. 2-row coils are
available in the preheat position. The secondary heating 1 row
coils are available for use with both hot water and steam. Hot
water maximum working pressure is 300 psig (2,069 kPa), and
the maximum entering water temperature is 200°F (93°C). The
steam coil maximum working pressure is 15 psig (103 kPa).
Electric Heating Coils
The auxiliary electric heating coil can be provided as either the
total source of heat or auxiliary intermediate season heating.
The electric heat coils are located in the preheat position, and
are the open-wire type. The electric heat option is available to
operate at the same voltage as the unit or with a separate power
supply voltage to reduce amperage consumption. Single power
connection is provided when unit and electric heat is of same
voltage. A second power connection must be used when the
fan coil and electric heat have different voltages. All standard
electric heat coils are ETL listed and interlocked with the fan
motor switch. Therefore, electric heat operation is possible
only when the fan is running. A unit-mounted magnetic
contactor is supplied on all voltages. High temperature cutouts
with automatic reset and another one with manual reset must
be provided as an integral part of the elements to de-energize
the electric heat in the event of an overheat condition.
Supply Fan

Supply fans are provided with permanent split-capacitor
motors, high efficiency, with 3 speed tap as minimum and are
run-tested in the assembled unit and permanently lubricated.
All motors are UL and CSA listed and have integral thermal
overload protection with a maximum ambient operating
temperature of 104°F. Motors are capable of starting at 80
percent of rated voltage and operating at 90 percent of rated
voltage on all speed settings. Motors can operate up to 10
percent overvoltage. Motor wires include a quick-disconnect
motor plug for easy removability.
Disconnect Switch
A unit-mounted disconnect switch is available as a standard
option on all units.
Filter Section
Filters are 1" (25 mm) throwaway type. They are concealed
from sight and easily removable. Other filter types can be
provided upon request.
Fresh Air Damper
A fresh air opening with a damper is available as a factoryinstalled or field-installed option. Dampers are constructed of
18-gage steel. Fresh air is sealed off with gasket material when
the damper is set in the closed position. The fresh air damper
assembly includes a cleanable, fine wire mesh insect screen.
Damper assembly is located in the unit sub-base below the unit
filter, allowing fresh air to be filtered and mixed with the
return air.
The manual damper is field-adjustable to allow from zero to
25% fresh air. The manual fresh air damper can also be
provided with an automatic, two-position spring return
actuator.
Controls
All McQuay Vertical ThinLine 3G fan coil units are available
as a basic unit with no controls or can be provided with various
unit mounted or wall mounted thermostats and controls.
Unit-mounted control options
• Unit-mounted, dial-type thermostat, integrated with a 4-
position, 3-speed fan switch and a manual or automatic
system changeover switch. The manual changeover switch
allows the user to change from Heat to Off to Cool as needed
or, with On-Off only, for auto-changeover from Cool to Heat
and vice versa. The fan runs continuously at the manually
selected fan speed: high, medium or low.
• Digital display, microprocessor-based, thermostat-controller
that supplies 24VAC output control to valves and motorized
dampers (when available). The use of an advanced
proportional integral (PI) algorithm allows precise control of
zone comfort under varying operational and environmental
conditions. It allows the fan to run continuously at the
manually selected fan speed (high, medium or low) and
cycles the cooling or heating valve(s) on and off as required
to meet the thermostat set point temperature. Manual or
automatic changeover options are available as well as a
remote setback capability from a time clock or facility
management system. Features include a Fahrenheit or
Celsius digital display and a built-in purge cycle which
assists the controller to determine if the 2 pipe hydronic
system is supplying hot water or chilled water. With factory
installed valve packages and with controls, it eliminates the
need for an inefficient bleed or bypass line. Digital display
thermostats are available to be used with on-off, 3 wire
floating and 0-10 vdc or 4-20ma proportional actuator
valves.
• Unit-mounted DDC interface board to be used for remote
thermostat, controller or facility management system.

line voltage valves, relays and fan motors.
MTA155: A HEAT-OFF-COOL system switch manually
selects heating or cooling mode. A separate fan switch allows
manual selection of fan speed (Hi-MED-L0). With this
thermostat the fan operation is internally wired for fan
continuous operation and the fan will be off when the system
switch is off. The fan supply input is switched to fan speed
outputs (HI - MED - LO).This switch can be applied for usage
with line voltage, directly connected to the fan motor or used
as low-voltage through the interface board and j-box.
MTB155: An ON-OFF system switch enables autochangeover of heating and cooling modes. A separate fan
switch allows manual selection of fan speed (Hi-MED-L0).
This switch can be applied for usage with line voltage, directly
connected to the fan motor or used as low-voltage through the
interface board and j-box.
MTA170 and MTB170 microprocessor digital display
thermostat is a stand-alone digital controller that supplies relay
control of heating, cooling, outside air, and up to three fan
speeds. The thermostat's configuration can supply standard
(continuous or cycling) fan, staged fan, and fan coil operation.
Energy saving features include temperature range limit
adjustment, staged fan operation, occupancy detection, and
setback control.
MTA170 fan speed is determined by manual selection of HI,
MED, or LO. On MTB170 the fan speed is configured for
staged fan and does not have speed selection available.
MT 158 and MT 168 Digital display microprocessor-based
thermostat-controller that supplies low voltage output control
to valves and motorized dampers (when available). The use of
an advanced proportional integral (PI) algorithm allows
precise control of zone comfort under varying operational and
environmental conditions. The digital display, with easy-to-use
adjustment buttons, allows convenient access to current zone
temperature, set point temperature and operating mode.
Optional manual or automatic changeover, setback capability
from a time clock or facility management system and auxiliary
heat functions are available, on selected models to adapt to the
different application requirements. It includes a fan switch
with Off, Hi, Med and Low speed selections. Features include
a Fahrenheit or Celsius digital display and a built-in purge
cycle which assists the controller to determine if the 2 pipe
hydronic system is supplying hot water or chilled water. With
factory installed valve packages it eliminates the need to have
the inefficient bleed or bypass line. Digital display thermostats
are available to be used with on-off, 3 wire floating and 0-10
vdc or 4-20ma proportional actuator valves, either N.O. or
N.C. valves.
MTA and MTB 158 thermostats are designed to control OnOff, N.O. and N.C valves, relays and three wire floating
valves. Through the dip switches, the thermostat can be
configured to work with low voltage On-Off or 3 wire floating
valves.
MT168 thermostats are designed to control 0-10 VDC/4-0 mA
valves. These units may include a fan switch with one or more
fan speed selections. The thermostat is shipped with all dip
switches in the "ON" (closed) position. And the damper output
(when utilized) is ON when mode is AUTO, HEAT or COOL,
damper is OFF in set back.
V alve/Piping Packages
All piping packages are tested at 300 psig and re-tested once
integrated and soldered to the coil at 300 psig (690 kPa) The
maximum working pressure of the interconnecting piping is
300 psig (2,069 kPa). Piping packages are available in 16
different configurations with or without unions and/or cleanoff valves on the strainers. McQuay Hydronic fan-coil units
can be provided with valve/piping packages factory built and
assembled, available for the main cooling (heating) coil and
the pre-heat or re-heat coil. Factory wired shipped loose within
unit or final field soldering; also available as factory mounted/
soldered or available as field installed kit.
All cooling piping packages are located directly above the
auxiliary drain pan to allow most of the condensate to be
captured and properly drained. Any part of the piping package
situated above the factory supplied auxiliary drain pan does
not required insulation. However, the area around final
McQuay Catalog 72227
Engineering Guide Specification
connections and anything downstream of the valve package
should be insulated to prevent condensation from forming.
Piping packages are available for the primary coil, as cooling
for 4 pipe systems or as cooling and heating for 2 pipe
systems, and for the pre-heating as well as the re-heating coil,
used on four-pipe systems. Left or right hand coil connections
either as same hand or opposite hand, except for the reheat coil
where same hand is required. Interconnecting piping refers to
the copper piping which is attached to the coil connections and
to all other components (i.e. control valves, shutoff valves,
circuit setters, etc.) It is 1/2" nominal (5/8" OD) copper pipe.
Since manual air bleed is part of the primary coil assembly, it
is not called out within the piping packages. However, for the
secondary heating coils, the manual air vent becomes
incorporated on all factory-installed valve/piping packages.
The air vent can be upgraded to an auto air bleed if desired.
Valve/Piping Packages - Placement and
Configurations
Although McQuay has the capability to deviate from the preset of valve/piping packages to meet almost any customer
requirements, McQuay has set 6 standard categories consisting
of: Shut-Off ball valve only, Shut-Off Ball valve with
Strainers, Basic, Enhanced, Premium and Deluxe Valve
Packages.
• Shut-Off Ball Valves with memory stop on the supply and a
shut off ball valve on the return.
• Shut-Off Ball Valves with Strainer with memory stop on the
supply and with strainer on the return.
• Basic: 2-way or 3-way control valve (3-way valve with
bypass balancing restrictor) and shut off ball valve on the
supply, and shut off ball valve on the return.
• Enhanced: 2-way or 3-way control valve (3-way valve with
bypass balancing restrictor) and shut off ball valve with
memory stop and strainer on the supply, and shut off ball
valve with memory stop on the return.
• Premium: 2-way or 3-way control valve (3-way valve with
bypass balancing restrictor) and shut off ball valve and
strainer on the supply and manual circuit setter (flow
control) and shut off ball valve on the return.
• Deluxe: 2-way or 3-way control valve (3-way valve with
bypass balancing restrictor), and shut off ball valve and
strainer on the supply and auto-fixed flow (circuit setter)
control and shut off ball valve on the return.
All above valve/ping combinations packages are also available
with the following additional options:
• Unions on both supply and return; P/T ports on both supply
and return; strainer with clean-out draining valve; auto air
bleed ports; threaded connection at the supply and return
connection to allow stainless steel flexible hose connections.
• 12" or 18" stainless steel braided hoses.
Control valves
• Two-Way, Two-Position (On-Off) Control Valves are rated
for a close-off pressure of 38 psig. The valve actuator is
easily removable for service or replacement without the
need to remove the valve body from piping packages.
Normally closed and normally open, fail safe valves are
available. As standard option, for main coil, McQuay
provides normally closed valves to isolate the coil during a
loss of power. However for heating coils, on four pipe
systems, normally open valves are available to allow them to
remain open during a loss of power. Opposite N.O. or N.C.
valves are available. McQuay locates valves in the water
supply pipe to operate as mixing valves.
• Three-Way, Two-Position (On-Off) Control Valves either
allow full water flow through the coil or divert the flow
through a bypass line. Normally close or open three-way,
two-position valves are rated for a maximum 38 psig (261
kPa) close off pressure across the valves. All standard threeway valves come with a fixed-balance orifice in the bypass
line to compensate for flow balancing in the bypass position,
eliminating the need for an additional balancing valve.
Valves are also available with a maximum close-off pressure
of 50 psig (345 kPa). The valve actuator is easily removable
for service without removing the valve body from piping.
Depending on the actuator chosen the valves respond to a
line voltage (115, 208-230 or 265-277 VAC) or to a 24 VAC
signal from the McQuay thermostat or controller. Normally
open or normally closed valves are available.
• Two- way and Three Way Modulating Control Valves are
rated for a maximum close off pressure of 50 psig (345 kPa).
Two or three way modulating valves modulate the water
flow through the coil in response to a signal from the
McQuay thermostat or controller. Upon request McQuay has
the capability to offer three-wire floating point equal
percentage valves or 0-10vdc proportional modulating
valves. The modulating valves are factory mounted in the
supply water pipe upstream of the coil.

A float switch (dry-contact) can be factory installed in the
main drain pan to detect a high condensate water level before
overflow can occur.
Fresh Air Aluminum Wall Boxes
An aluminum wall box with two sets of louvers is available for
field installation. It is placed in the outside wall of the building
for decorative purposes and to act as a rain shield to minimize
the potential of water coming into the unit. A field-supplied
duct or sleeve from the wall box to the unit fresh air opening is
required.
End Pockets for Valve/Piping Package
McQuay standard end pockets of 8-1/8" are already considered
as extended pocket and are large enough to fit the most
elaborate McQuay valve and piping and still provide sufficient
