Evaporator and Condenser Coils

Condenser coils shall have 3/8” copper tubes mechanically bonded to lanced aluminum plate fins. Evaporator coils shall be 1/2” internally finned copper tubes mechanically bonded to high performance aluminum plate fins. All coils shall be leak tested at the factory to ensure pressure integrity. All coils shall be leak tested to 200 psig and pressure tested to 450 psig. All dual circuit evaporator coils shall be of intermingled configuration. Sloped condensate drain pans are standard.

Outdoor Fans

The outdoor fan shall be direct-drive, statically and dynamically balanced, draw through in the vertical discharge position.The fan motor(s) shall be permanently lubricated and have built-in thermal overload protection.

Indoor Fan

Units shall have belt driven, FC, centrifugal fans with fixed motor sheaves. All motors shall be circuit breaker protected. All indoor fan motors meet the U.S. Energy Policy Act of 1992 (EPACT).

Electric Heaters

Electric heat shall be available for factory installation within basic unit. Electric heater elements shall be constructed of heavy-duty nickel chromium elements internally delta connected for 240 volt, wye connected for 480 and 600 volt. Staging shall be achieved through the unitary control processor (UCP). Each heater package shall have automatically reset high limit control operating through heating element contactors. All heaters shall be individually fused from factory, where required, and meet all NEC and CEC requirements. Power assemblies shall provide single-point connection. Electric heat shall be UL listed or CSA certified.

Gas Heating Section

The heating section shall have a drum and tube heat exchanger(s) design using corrosion resistant steel components. A forced combustion blower shall supply premixed fuel to a single burner ignited by a pilotless hot surface ignition system. In order to provide reliable operation, a negative pressure gas valve shall be used that requires blower operation to initiate gas flow. On an initial call for heat, the combustion blower shall purge the heat exchanger(s) 45 seconds before ignition. After three unsuccessful ignition attempts, the entire heating system shall be locked out until manually reset at the thermostat. Units shall be suitable for use with natural gas or propane (field installed kit) and also comply with California requirements for low NOx emissions. All units shall have two stage heating.

Controls

Unit shall be completely factory wired with necessary controls and terminal block for power wiring. Units shall provide an external location for mounting fused disconnect device. Microprocessor controls shall be provided for all 24 volt control functions. The resident control algorithms shall
