Features/Options

Certification:
Features:
  • Compatible with Low GWP Refrigerants
  • Units are CULUS Listed.
  • Designed for use with various popular refrigerants.
  • Energy efficient compressors with POE or mineral oil.
  • Several compressor options to choose from: Copeland Discus and Bitzer reciprocating.
  • Single, Dual and parallel-piped (optional) compressor configurations available.
  • ThermospanTM condenser core design eliminates tube sheet leaks and provides reliable operation.
  • 3/8″ condenser tubes reduce refrigerant charge.
  • Generously sized condenser allows unit to operate at higher than normal ambient conditions.
  • Optional coating and fin surfaces for condenser core protection available.
  • Specially designed, thermally protected and permanently lubricated ball bearing condenser fan motor(s).
  • Receivers (where used) are liberally sized and include inlet as well as outlet service valves.
  • Subcooling circuit in condenser on all models (except on H8 models) increases overall system efficiency and provides dependable compressor operation.
  • Utilizes pre-formed internal piping, eliminates welded joints and reduces chances of a leak.
  • Electrical components are housed in a spacious and conveniently located panel. In case of a compressor trip, (except on air conditioning models) a lock-out relay de-energizes the liquid line solenoid valve. In addition, SPDT contact is provided for field wired alarm circuit.
