DESCRIPTION
The Multi Zone Series are ductless climate systems. They are designed
with a matching indoor unit for optimum performance and efficiency.
These climate systems are supported with accessories and documents
to serve specific functions.
FEATURES
Variable Frequency Rotary Compressor - Twin rotary in ve rte r co mpressor
on all models features high efficiency operation that modulates down to 15
Hz and as high as 120 Hz for red uced vibrat ion and qu iet opera tion. Brus hless DC motor uses powerful Neodymium magnets that are approximately
15-20 times stronger than ferrite magnets used in conventional AC compressors. The DC Inverter Control provides continuous operation, while adjusting
capacity according to room temp eratur e. Th e accur ate s ensing of co oling or
heating loads prevents frequen t changes in capacity and ensur es efficient,
economical operation.
Low Ambient Cooling Operation Down to 5 °F - This feature allows for a
space to be air-conditioned eve n in outdoor temperatures as low as 5 °F.
This cooling ability is important when de aling with server equipment rooms,
surveillance mechanical rooms, restaurant kitchens, fitness centers, and
more.
Load Variat io n Mana ge ment S ys tem - The outdoor coil thermistor continuously monitors the temperature and commun icates wit h the micro process or.
Depending on the temperature measured, the compressor will be allowed to
increase the frequency if nee ded to meet the load or reduce frequen cy as
the load is reduced.
High Pressure Discharge Temperature - The compressor discharg e line
thermistor continuously monitors the temperature and communicates with
the microprocessor. Depending on the temperature me as ured, the compressor will be allowed to in crea se t he f r equen cy t o me et th e lo ad o r is fo rc ed to
run at the current or reduced f requency. If the temperature gets excessi vely
high, the compressor will be de-e nergized.
Defrost Control (Heat Pump Models) - Defrost cycle is automatically
enabled if there is a build-up of frost on the outdoor coil. Outdoor fan and
indoor blower operation is terminated during the defrost cycle. H1 is displayed on the indoor unit panel on the front cover during a defrost cycle.
Reversing Valve (Heat Pump Models) - 4-way inter change reversing valve
effects a rapid change in direction of refrigerant flow resulting in quick
changeover from cooling to h eating and vice vers a. Valve operates on system pressure differential betw e en outdoor unit and indoor unit.
R-410A Refrigerant - Unit is pre- charged with R410A refrigerant that uses
PVE refrigerant oil. Polyvinyl ether (PVE) is an innovative refrigerant oil specially formulated for hydrofluorocarbon (HFC) refrigeration systems. In addition to providing lubricati ng propert ies, it al so has a nu mber of othe r applied
advantages that help to increase the reliability of the refrigeration systems
where it is applied.
Refrigerant Line Connections, Service Valve - Outdoor units are designed
with easy service and mai nten an ce in mi n d. Ma in te nanc e p oi nts are loc at ed
behind easy-access panels, to m ake installation and s ervice a breeze for a
trained technician. Flare connection lines are located on side of unit cabinet.
Fully serviceable brass service valve prevents corrosion an d provide access
to refrigerant system. Shut -off valve that can be fully shut off while 2-way
suction/vapor valve (with service port) may be front seated to manage refrigerant charge while servicing system.
Air Deflection Louvers - Horizontal louvers default to the cooling or heating
position when the unit i s operating. Horizontal louvers can be set to a preset
oscillating range or fixed position from the wireless remote control. Full oscillating is the default settin g when button is pushed. Vertical louvers can be
manually adjusted to direct th e airflow for optimal comfort.
Indoor Coil Freeze Protectio n - The indoor coil thermistor monitors the coil
temperature continuously. Any time the coil tempera ture drops below 30°F,
the compressor and the outdoor fan (30 secon ds later) will be switched off
until the coil temperature r ises above 43°F and the compressor has been off
for a minimum of 3 minutes.
I FEEL Function - When I FEEL is activated, the system will sat isfy the coo ling or heating temperature set point where the remote control is located.
When I FEEL is deactivated, th e system will satisfy the cooling or heating
temperature set point where the i ndoor unit i s loca ted. Thi s fea ture pr ovid es
homeowners with optimum comfort whether the y are near or far from the
indoor unit.
Hot Heat Pump (cold air prevention) - In heating mode, the indoor fan wi ll
be delayed from 1 to 3 minutes to allow refrigerant to warm up and avoid
cold blow. This may occur during:
• Initial start-up of a heating cycle
• Immediately after completion of an Auto mode operation
Heating under extremely low indoor temperatures
