DESCRIPTION
The 14 SEER TCHE Series condensing unit is the outdoor part
of a versatile system of air conditioning. Optimized for the new
14 SEER Regional Minimum Efficiency and the high EER
required in the Southwest US, these outdoor units are specifically designed to be matched with York indoor coils, furnaces,
and air handlers to provide a complete system solution.
These remarkably compact units require only minimal service
and airflow clearances, allowing them to be positioned as close
as six inches (6") from the wall. This design allows the unit to be
located virtually anywhere – on the ground, roof, balcony, or
mounted to an outside wall. When installation footprint is limited, these units can be stacked two-high using the approved
stacking kit.
FEATURES
• Performance - Optimized for the US DOE Southwest
Region and valid for installation in all US DOE Regions.
• Small Footprint - Compact “slim-line” design allows for easy
installation in tight spaces. Units can be stacked two-high
with approved stacking kit.
• QuietDrive™ System - The combination of a swept-wing
fan, rigid base pan, isolated compressor compartment, and
quiet scroll compressor reduce sound to as low as 70 dBA.
• Low Operating Sound Levels - The swept-wing condenser
fan in blow-through configuration provides for whisper-quiet
operation by allowing air to flow smoothly and efficiently
across the fan blades.
• Quality Condenser Coils - The coil is constructed of aluminum microchannel tubing and enhanced aluminum fins for
compact size and increased efficiency.
• Environmentally Friendly Refrigerant - The next generation refrigerant R-410A delivers environmentally friendly performance with zero ozone depletion.
• Durable Cabinet - Heavy-gauge steel cabinet and tubular
base rails provide added support.
• Aesthetic Appearance - Powder paint “Champagne” color
provides an attractive retail finish.
• Agency Listed - Safety certified by CSA to UL 1995 / CSA
22.2. Performance certified to ANSI/AHRI Standard 210/240
in accordance with the Unitary Small Equipment certification
program.
• Other Features:
– Factory installed spun copper filter drier
– High pressure and low pressure switches
– Accumulator and crankcase heater in all sizes
– Up to 200’ line set out of the box
– Zero lot line - only 6” minimum clearance from structure

Some of the combinations shown in the above System Charge table require Advanced Main Air Circulating Fan indoor product. For approved coil
only matches, please see the “COOLING CAPACITY - Upflow, Downflow & Horizontal Furnaces and Coils” table.
FOOTNOTES:
1. For applications requiring a TXV use S1-1TVM*** series kit.
2. A TXV kit must be used with these indoor units to obtain system performance.
3. Systems matched with furnaces or air handlers not equipped with blower-off delays may require blower Time Delay Kit S1-2FD06700224.
4. CF and FC coils cannot be used in horizontal applications.
5. Refer to Cooling Performance Data tables for actual system performance for specified system matches.
PROCEDURES:
1. Unit factory charge listed on the unit nameplate includes refrigerant for the outdoor unit, the smallest matched indoor unit, and 15 feet of interconnecting line tubing.
2. Verify the TXV and additional charge required for specific matched indoor unit in the system using the above table.
3. Add additional charge for the amount of interconnecting line tubing greater than 15 feet at the rate specified in Physical and Electrical Data Table.
4. For indoor matches requiring additional charge, the refrigerant needs to be weighed in for specific matched indoor unit and lineset length.
5. Permanently mark the unit nameplate with the total system charge. Total System Charge = Base Charge (as shipped) + charge adder for matched indoor unit +
charge adder for line set.
Rated in accordance with DOE test procedures (Federal Register 12-27-79 and 3-18-88) and ANSI/AHRI Standard 210/240.
Cooling MBH based on 80°F entering air temperature, 50% RH (Relative Humidity), and rated air flow.
EER (Energy Efficiency Ratio) is the total cooling output in BTUs at 95°F outdoor ambient divided by the total electric power in watt-hours at those conditions.
SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) is the total cooling output in BTUs during a normal annual usage period for cooling divided by the total
electric power input in watt-hours during the same period.
