e.Superior hardness characteristics of 2H per ASTM D3363-92A and cross-hatch adhesion of 4B-5B per ASTM D3359-93.

f.Impact resistance shall be up to 160 in.-lb (ASTM D2794-93).

g.Humidity and water immersion resistance shall be up to minimum 1000 and 250 hours respectively (ASTM D2247-92 and ASTM D870-92).

h.Corrosion durability shall be confirmed through testing to be no less than 1000 hours salt spray per ASTM B117-90.

5.Optional E-coated aluminum-fin, aluminum tube condenser coils:

a.Shall have a flexible epoxy polymer coating uniformly applied to all coil external surface areas without mater- ial bridging between fins or louvers.

b.Coating process shall ensure complete coil encapsulation, including all exposed fin edges.

c.E-coat thickness of 0.8 to 1.2 mil with top coat having a uniform dry film thickness from 1.0 to 2.0 mil on all external coil surface areas, including fin edges, shall be provided.

d.Shall have superior hardness characteristics of 2H per ASTM D3363-00 and cross-hatch adhesion of 4B-5B per ASTM D3359-02.

e.Shall have superior impact resistance with no cracking, chipping or peeling per NSF/ANSI 51-2002 Method 10.2.

1.Refrigerant circuit shall include the following control, safety, and maintenance features:

a.Thermostatic Expansion Valve (TXV) shall help provide optimum performance across the entire operating range. Shall contain removable power element to allow change out of power element and bulb without remov- ing the valve body.

b.Refrigerant filter drier - Solid core design.

c.Service gauge connections on suction and discharge lines.

d.Pressure gauge access through a specially designed access port in the top panel of the unit.

2.There shall be gauge line access port in the skin of the rooftop, covered by a black, removable plug.

a.The plug shall be easy to remove and replace.

b.When the plug is removed, the gauge access port shall enable maintenance personnel to route their pressure gauge lines.

c.This gauge access port shall facilitate correct and accurate condenser pressure readings by enabling the read- ing with the compressor access panel on.
