DUAL REFRIGERANT AIR COOLED CONDENSING UNITS

Description

Minicon R-series condensing units are ideally suited for use in a variety of commercial applications such as cafeterias,
convenience stores, restaurants and fast food outlets. Minicon units offer a winning combination of quality, economy,
and fl exibility coupled with lower long term operating costs.

This low profi le product line has been designed around environmentally safer refrigerants. Units are available with
a choice of compressors: low cost hermetic, effi cient and quiet scroll compressors or heavy duty semi-hermetic and
discus compressors.

In addition to the basic Indoor and Outdoor models described in this bulletin, Russell can also provide pre-engineered
system packages with matching evaporators and accessories.

The standard R-series condensing unit is designed for operation in ambient air temperatures up to 110°F. Oversized
condensers are available for most models. Contact our Applications Engineering department for requirements
exceeding 110°F ambient temperature.
