2.Compressor with standard controls shall be capable of operation down to 25 F ambient outdoor temperature.

K.Electrical Requirements:

All unit power wiring shall enter unit cabinet at a single factory-predrilled location.

L.Motors:

1.Compressor motors shall be cooled by refrigerant passing through motor windings and shall have line break thermal and current overload protection.

2.Indoor blower (evaporator-fan) motor shall have per- manently lubricated bearings and inherent automatic-reset thermal overload protection.

3.Totally enclosed condenser-fan motor shall have permanently lubricated bearings and inherent automatic-reset thermal overload protection.

4.Induced-draft motor shall have permanently lubri- cated, sealed bearings and inherent automatic reset thermal overload protection.

M.Special Features:

Certain features are not applicable when the features designated by * are specified. For assistance in amending the specifications, contact your local sales office.

1.Roof Curbs:

a.Formed galvanized steel with wood nailer strip and capable of supporting entire unit weight.

b.Allows for installing and securing ductwork to curb prior to mounting unit on the curb.

*2. Integrated Economizers:

a. Integrated integral-modulating type capable of simultaneous economizer and compressor operation.

b. Includes all hardware and controls to provide cooling with outdoor air.

c. Equipped with low-leakage dampers not to exceed 3% leakage, at 1 in. wg pressure differen- tial (Durablade economizer).

d.Capable of introducing up to 100% outdoor air in both minimum and fully open positions.

e.Equipped with a gravity relief sliding plate damper (Durablade economizer). Damper shall close upon unit shutoff.

a.Two-position damper package shall include single blade damper and motor. Admits up to 100% out- door air.

b.Damper shall close upon indoor (evaporator) fan shutoff.

c.Designed to close damper during loss of power situations.

d.Equipped with 15% barometric relief damper.

6.25% Two-Position Damper:

a.Two-position damper package shall include single blade damper and motor. Admits up to 25% out- door air.

b.Damper shall close upon indoor (evaporator) fan shutoff.

*7. Solid-State Enthalpy Control:

a.For use with variable sliding economizer package only.

b.Capable of sensing outdoor-air enthalpy content (temperature and humidity) and controlling econ- omizer cut-in point to have minimum heat content air passing over the evaporator coil for most effi- cient system operation.

*8. Differential Enthalpy Sensor:

a.For use with economizer only.

b.Capable of comparing enthalpy content (tempera- ture and humidity) of outdoor and indoor air and controlling economizer cut-in point at the most economical level.

9.Outdoor-Air Enthalpy Sensor:

The outdoor-air enthalpy sensor shall be used with the EconoMi$er device to provide single enthalpy control. When used in conjunction with a return-air enthalpy sensor, the EconoMi$er device will provide differential enthalpy control. The sensor allows the EconoMi$er controller to determine if outside air is suitable for free cooling.

10. Return-Air Enthalpy Sensor:

The return-air enthalpy sensor shall be used with the EconoMi$er device. When used in conjunction with an outdoor-air enthalpy sensor, the EconoMi$er device will provide differential enthalpy control.
