GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Oceanaire AIRBOSS is a portable air-cooled spot cooler designed for
permanent or temporary cooling applications. The entire air conditioning
unit has been built in an attractive sheet metal cabinet, equipped with heavy
-duty casters for mobility. All Air Boss models come with a 10-foot power
cord for electrical connection and added mobility in service. These spotcoolers are designed to direct air to specific areas or objects through a discharge grill located on the upper-front of the unit, while rejecting heat from
the top of the unit. The Air Boss models range in cooling capacities from
12,000 BTU/HR to 60,050 BTU/HR to satisfy most space cooling
requirements.
The Air Boss is a self-contained unit with the entire cooling system,
evaporator and condenser fan motors and electrical components neatly
arranged in a gray polyester powder coated metal cabinet. When connected to the proper source of electrical power, a 24-volt thermostat controls
the Air Boss unit to provide the desired level of comfort and cooling.
A wide variety of accessories and factory installed options are available for
the Air Boss units allowing for improved performance and versatility.
WARRANTY CARD
It is important that the warranty card be filled out completely and
returned to the factory within fourteen (14) days of installation of the
unit in order to receive the benefits of the warranty.

STANDARD FEATU RES
CABINET
The AirBoss Series cabinet is constructed of 18 gauge steel with a gray polyester powder
coated finish that will compliment any decor. The entire cabinet is insulated with a soundabsorbing insulation for cool, quiet comfort. All units come equipped with handles and
swivel casters for portability and convenient set-up.
ELECTRONIC THERMOSTAT
All Air Boss unit are equipped with a non-programmable electronic thermostat. When
power is connected to the unit, the thermostat will control the Air Boss to cool a space to
the desired temperature. The thermostat is also capable of controlling the fan to operate
automatically (when needed) or continuously. To protect the compressor from shortcycling, there is a built-in, 4-minute time delay in the thermostat.
FAN SPEED CONTROL
A two position rocker switch, located next to the thermostat, provides the user with the
option of running the evaporator fan in high-speed or low-speed.
CONDENSATE RESERVOIR/PUMP
Air Boss units come equipped with a means for handling the condensate generated dur-
ing the cooling process. All models except the 5-ton models come equipped with a
Condensate Reservoir Tank, that captures the condensate from cooling. The tank can
then be easily removed from the unit and emptied as required.
The 5-ton Air Boss models come equipped with an Automatic Condensate Pump that
disposes of the condensate. The pump comes with a 25 foot long vinyl hose that allows
for the disposal of the condensate water to a drain. The automatic pump is capable of a
20ft lift, to handle just about any installation requirement.
CONDENSATE ALARM LIGHT
On the front of all Air Boss models, there is a Condensate Alarm Light (RED) located near
the thermostat. For models less than 5-tons, the light indicates that the condensate tank
is full and needs to be emptied. In the 5-ton Air Boss units (model PAC60) the light indicates a condensate pump over-flow condition where the pump is either disabled, or incapable of rejecting the condensate water, and must be serviced.
FILTERS
All Air Boss units are equipped with washable filters at the air intakes. 1/8” mesh air filters
located behind the evaporator return air grill serve to filter the air before it is cooled. A
1/2” aluminum mesh filter serves to protect the condenser coil from dust build-up. Both
filters can be easily removed and cleaned.
HIGH PRESSURE SAFETY SWITCH
Located on the back of the Air Boss unit is a manual re-set high pressure switch, used for
the protection of the compressor. If the condensing pressure exceeds the limit setting, the
cut-out shuts down the compressor, while the evaporator fan remains running. The compressor can be re-started, once the condensing pressure has lowered, by depressing the
“RESET” button.
POWER CORDS
All Air boss units come with power cords, convenient connection and portability. All units
except the 5-ton models, and 3-phase models are equipped with LCDI for added safety
devices.

APPLICATIONS
SPOT COOLER
The Air Boss can be used in an open environment to cool specific objects or "spots".
Spot Cooling is a convenient and economical way to provide air conditioning where
cooling the entire space is impractical. Cool air is discharged from the unit and is directed
where it is needed. Nozzle kits can be used to improve direction of the cooling airflow.
AREA COOLER
When the Air Boss is installed in an area that is not totally enclosed, the condenser hot air
exhaust duct directs condenser air out of the area, allowing the evaporator air to cool the
specific space.
ROOM AIR CONDITIONER
When ducted, the OceanAire AirBoss can be used as a room air conditioner to cool an
enclosed space. Using the condenser return air plenum (DCP) and ceiling discharge kit
(CK) and ceiling panel kits CK-PL accessories, the Air Boss can operate as a room air
conditioner with the condenser air isolated form the conditioned space.

SERVICE CORD
All AirBoss Series units are equipped with the standard ten foot long service cord with
plug configurations and receptacle requirements as shown in this chart. PAC1211,
PAC1811, PAC2412 and PAC3612 units come with LCDI (Leakage Current Detection
& Interruption) devices that serve as a means of electrical protection.
CAUTION—DO NOT
USE THE LCDI AS AN ON/OFF SWITCH FOR THE UNIT
All 3-phase models are equipped with locking plugs for added connection reliability.
Refer to the chart below for plug and receptacle details for all Air Boss models.

CONDENSATE RESERVOIR TANK
For Air Boss Models PAC12, PAC18, PAC24 and PAC36, a 5-gallon polyethylene tank is
provided standard, to collect condensate. The tank is located in the lower, front section
of the unit. A high water level cut-out switch is used to stop the compressor and
condenser fan automatically when the tank's pre-set water level has been reached. The
evaporator fan will continue to run, circulating air.
TANK LEVEL ADJUSTMENT INSTRUCTIONS
An adjustment screw is provided to vary the cut-off of the tank full switch. If a lighter (less
weight) level of water is desired, turn the adjusting screw clockwise. Do not exceed 6 full
turns counter-clockwise.
CAUTION, TURN UNIT OFF: BEFORE ADJUSTING SET SCREW
BEFORE REMOVING TANK TO EMPTY CONDENSATE
Turn screw clockwise to lower water level. Less water makes tank lighter and easier to
remove.
NOTE: Max. and Min. water levels shown are those at which the unit will shutdown and
not restart until the condensate tank has been drained.
