STAGED GAS UNIT APPLICATIONS — The rooftop units may be ordered with an optional factory-installed staged gas control system that monitors heating operation of the rooftop unit.

IMPORTANT: An accessory field-supplied Navigator dis- play module is required for all staged gas control units.

Install Supply-Air Thermistors (Staged Gas Units Only)Supply-air thermistors are a field-installed factory-provided component. Three supply-air thermistors are shipped with staged gas units and are inside the heating section. Thermistor wires must be connected to SGC (staged gas controller) in the heating section. See Table 6 and Fig 24. The supply-air ther- mistors should be located in the supply duct with the following criteria:

downstream of the heat exchanger cells

equally spaced as far as possible from the heat exchanger cells

a duct location where none of the supply air thermistors are within sight of the heat exchanger cells

a duct location with good mixed supply air portion of the unit.

THERMISTORS — All units are equipped with a supply air thermistor (SAT) located in the supply fan discharge and an outdoor air thermistor (OAT) located in the outdoor air hood. Variable air volume (VAV) units are supplied with a return air thermistor (RAT) located on the return air damper support.

CONSTANT VOLUME APPLICATIONS — The units, as shipped, are operable as stand-alone units, using either a stan- dard (mechanical or electronic) 2-stage heat, 2-stage cool ther- mostat, or with an electronic room sensor and a timeclock to establish unit start and stop times.

With a standard thermostat (programmable is optional), heating and cooling operation is set by space temperature.

With a space sensor and timeclock, the machine will operate at default values unless they are changed using appropriate in- put devices. The space sensor senses space temperature and may be equipped with a timed override feature, which allows unit operation during unoccupied periods.

The space sensors may be used in multiples of 4 or 9 to achieve space temperature averaging. The use of a space sensor also allows the unit to be turned on and off from a remote signal.

Carrier 48AJ, 48EW, 48EY024-068, 48AW, 48AY020-060, 48EK, 48AK, 48EJ specifications Thermistor Designations

48EJ, 48AJ, 48AK, 48EK, 48AY020-060 specifications

The Carrier 48EJ, 48AW, 48EK, 48AJ, and 48EY024-068 are cutting-edge rooftop air conditioning units designed for commercial applications. These models are renowned for their reliability, energy efficiency, and innovative technologies aimed at providing optimal indoor comfort.

One of the standout features of these units is their advanced cooling and heating capabilities. They employ a multi-stage compressor system that allows for precise temperature control, accommodating various load requirements. This flexibility is particularly beneficial in commercial settings where the cooling load can fluctuate throughout the day.

Energy efficiency is paramount in today’s environmental landscape, and Carrier has ensured that these models meet stringent efficiency standards. They incorporate high-efficiency scroll compressors, which significantly reduce energy consumption while delivering powerful performance. The units are also equipped with variable speed fans that adjust airflow based on demand, further optimizing energy use.

In terms of construction, these rooftop units feature a robust design that enhances durability and longevity. The cabinet is constructed to withstand harsh weather conditions, ensuring reliable performance year-round. Additionally, the units are equipped with corrosion-resistant coatings, particularly useful in coastal environments where salt exposure can be a concern.

The Carrier 48EJ, 48AW, 48EK, 48AJ, and 48EY models utilize advanced controls and connectivity features, allowing for easy integration into building management systems. This connectivity enables remote monitoring and control, facilitating quick response to changing conditions and simplifying maintenance tasks.

Noise reduction is another key characteristic of these models. They are designed with sound-absorbing insulation and low-noise fan blades to ensure quiet operation, making them suitable for noise-sensitive environments such as schools and hospitals.

These units are also available with various options for air filtration and dehumidification. The use of high-efficiency air filters enhances indoor air quality by trapping dust, pollen, and other airborne particles. Enhanced dehumidification capabilities ensure that spaces remain comfortable even in humid conditions.

In conclusion, the Carrier 48EJ, 48AW, 48EK, 48AJ, and 48EY024-068 rooftop units are engineered to offer exceptional performance, energy efficiency, and durability. With their advanced technologies and user-friendly features, they stand out as reliable solutions for meeting diverse commercial cooling and heating needs, making them a popular choice for many businesses.
