DESCRIPTION

The AHV Air Handler line offers the ultimate in comfort, sound and
application flexibility. This unit may be used for upflow, downflow, hori­zontal right, or horizontal left applications. No special kits are required
to install this deluxe product.036-21047-001 Rev. A (4/00)

Air handlers are shipped with “Flex-coils” without a factory installed
metering device. Flex coil models allow these coils to be used with R-22
or R-410A for added flexibility to meet refrigerant choices. An orifice
metering device or a R-410A TXV should be installed in the field to
meet your system requirements.

FEATURES

Thermostatic Expansion Valve - Provides the ultimate refrigerant

control required for today’s high efficient product. The UPG bolt-on TXV
provides easy installation to convert the air handler to the required
refrigerant, which is a true bolt-on design that does not requir e brazing
to replace or install.

Rust-proof Plastic Drain Pans - The vertical and horizontal drain

pans in these units are made of a fiberglass reinforced thermoset poly­mer that will not rust or compromise stability at high temperatures.

Insulated Cabinet - All air handler cabinets are thermally insulated

with 3/4” foil faced insulation to prevent sweating.

Factory Sealed - Achieves 2% or less total airflow leakage rate at

duct leakage test conditions for system airflow verification.

Durable Finish Inside and Out - Air handler casings are made of

pre-painted galvanized steel which provides a better paint to steel bond
that resists corrosion and rust creep. All internal coil sheet metal parts
are made of G60 galvanized or prepainted G30 galvanized steel.

Filters - All models have internal filter racks provided for use with 1”

thick standard size filters.

Electric Heat Kits - The 6HK series of field installed electric heat kits

are available for installation friendly and easy service applications.
These 6HK kits have heat capacities from 2 kW to 25 kW to meet the
application requirements.

ECM Variable S peed Motor - Designed for efficient, quiet operation

with added indoor comfort control. With the use of a humidistat, the sys­tem will monitor the humidity in the home and automatically keep the
desired humidity level in both winter and summer seasons. The ECM
motor utilizes only 24% of the energy used by standard blower motors
to reduce your overall heating and cooling costs.

The climate comfort system allows dealer to customize comfort settings
based on regional location.

Communications - These models may be connected as part of a

communications system using a 4-wire connection bus.

FOR DISTRIBUTION USE ONLY - NOT TO BE USED AT POINT OF RETAIL SALE
