Select the proper size of unit heater for whatever application desired, as illustrated by the following examples.
Example 1:
Select a Model S horizontal unit heater to deliver 95 MBH with 220°F entering water temperature (EWT), 70°F entering air temperature (EAT) and a 30°F water temperature drop (WTD).
Step 1. |

Determine GPM: |

GPM = Btu/hr = | 95000 = 6.53 | |||

Step 2.
Refer toTable
Step 3.
Determine equivalent MBH at standard conditions (200° EWT, 60° EAT).
Equiv. MBH = MBH = 95 = 89.8 Factor 1.058
Step 4.
Select unit size by entering the hot water tables at the 200 °F EWT column. Select
Notes:
*LS = Low speed.
**PL = Model P low final temperature model with all air ports open.
Figures in bold face show maximum mounting height with louver cone diffusers set vertically.
To meet CSA and OSHA requirements, Model P Unit Heaters mounted lower than 8.0 ft. from the floor must be equipped with an OSHA fan guard. Above table based on 60 F entering air temperature. In providing for the use of diffusers, it must be remembered that adjustment of a LCD to deflect air toward horizontal immediately lowers the mounting height limit.
the unit which will provide 89.8 MBH at
6.53GPM. In this example, the selection indicates a Model S 126W2 unit heater, fromTable
To determine the actual capacity of this Model S 126W2 at operating conditions (220° EWT and 70° EAT) proceed as follows.
Step 1.
Determine the MBH at 6.53 GPM by interpolation in the 200° column. (In this case 90.8 MBH.) Multiply this MBH by the conversion factor 90.8 MBH x 1.058 = 96 MBH.
Step 2.
The GPM remains constant = 6.53 GPM.
Step 3.
Calculate the water temperature drop
