Airflow Performance
Airflow performance data is based on cooling performance
with dry coil and filter in place. Select performance table for
appropriate unit size, voltage and number of electric heaters to
be used. Make sure external static applied to unit allows operation within the minimum and maximum limits shown in table
below for both cooling and electric heat operation. For optimum
blower performance, operate the unit in the .2" to .5" in. W.C.
external static range. In general, the indoor motor speed tap
should be as shown in table for the appropriate cooling capacity shown. Always check to make sure proper motor speed tap
is connected as units are shipped from the factory connected
for high speed operation.
Airflow Performance Data
IMPORTANT: Observe airflow operating limits. Do not operate above 1.0 in. W.C. system external static.
Before proceeding with installation, refer
to installation instructions packaged
with each model, as well as complying
with all Federal, State, Provincial, and
Local codes, regulations, and practices.
