FRIEDRICH DIGITAL CONTROL FEATURES

FRIEDRICH DIGITAL CONTROL FEATURES

The new Friedrich digital PTAC has state of the art features to improve guest comfort, indoor air quality and conserve energy. Through the use of specifi cally designed control software for the PTAC industry Friedrich has accomplished what other Manufacturer’s have only attempted – a quiet, dependable, affordable and easy to use PTAC.

Below is a list of standard features on every Friedrich PTAC and their benefi t to the owner.

Digital Temperature

By digitally monitoring desired room temperature the room is controlled more precisely than conventional

systems. The large, easy to read LED display can show either set-point or actual room temperature as

Readout

selected by owner.

 

 

 

One-Touch

When the unit is powered off the unit can be returned directly to heating or cooling mode by pressing the

‘Heat’ or ‘Cool’ buttons without the confusing power up sequence of some controls. One-touch control

Operation

takes guess-work out of unit control delivering a more enjoyable experience and eliminating front-desk

 

calls.

 

 

Individual Mode and

By having separate control buttons and indicators for both fan and mode settings the Friedrich digital con-

trol eliminates the confusion of previous digital PTACs. The accurate temperature setting provides greater

Fan Control Buttons

guest comfort than other systems.

 

 

 

Quiet Start/Stop

The fan start and stop delays prevent abrupt changes in room acoustics due to the compressor energizing

or stopping immediately. Upon call for cooling or heating the unit fan will run for fi ve seconds prior to en-

Fan Delay

ergizing the compressor. Also, the fan off delay allows for “free cooling” by utilizing the already cool indoor

 

coil to its maximum capacity by running for 30 seconds after the compressor.

 

 

Remote Thermostat

Some applications require the use of a wall mounted thermostat. All new Friedrich PTACs may be switched

from unit control to remote thermostat control easily without the need to order a special model or acces-

Operation

sory kit.

 

 

 

Wireless Remote

Guests can adjust the temperature and mode of the unit through the use of an optional hand held wireless

Control Ready

remote, improving guest comfort and relaxation.

 

 

Internal Diagnostic

The new Friedrich digital PTAC features a self diagnostic program that can alert maintenance to compo-

nent failures or operating problems. The internal diagnostic program saves properties valuable time when

Program

diagnosing running problems.

 

 

 

Service Error Code

The self diagnosis program will also store error codes in memory if certain conditions occur and correct

themselves such as extreme high or low operating conditions or activation of the room freeze protection

Storage

feature. Storing error codes can help properties determine if the unit faced obscure conditions or if an error

 

occurred and corrected itself.

 

 

Constant Comfort

The on-board processor monitors time between demand cycles (heat or cool) and will cycle the fan every

9 minutes to sample the room condition and determine if the desired conditions are met. This allows the

Room Monitoring

room to have similar benefi ts to a remote mounted stat without the complication or cost of a wall mounted

 

thermostat.

 

 

Electronic

By limiting the operating range the property can save energy by eliminating “max cool” or “max heat” situ-

 

Temperature

ations common with older uncontrolled systems. The new electronic control allows owners to set operating

Limiting

ranges for both heating and cooling independently of one another.

 

 

 

 

When the PTAC senses that the indoor room temperature has fallen to 40°F the unit will cycle on high fan

Room Freeze

and the electric strip heat to raise the room temperature to 46°F then cycle off again. This feature works

regardless of the mode selected and can be turned off. The control will also store the Room Freeze cycle

Protection

in the service code memory for retrieval at a later date. This feature ensures that unoccupied rooms do not

 

 

reach freezing levels where damage can occur to plumbing and fi xtures.

 

 

Random

Multiple compressors starting at once can often cause electrical overloads and premature unit failure.

The random restart delay eliminates multiple units from starting at once following a power outage or initial

Compressor Restart

power up. The compressor delay will range from 180 to 240 seconds.
