The New Carrier WeatherMaker® rooftop units (RTU) with EcoBlue™ Technology were designed by customers with integrated new technology to provide value added benefits never seen in this type of equipment before.
New major design features include:- Patented, industry’s first efficient indoor fan system using Vane Axial fan with electric commutated variable speed motor. As compared to todays typically used belt drive with forward curve fans, system provides reliable operation with:
- - 75% fewer moving parts
- - No fan belts, pulleys, shaft, and shaft bearings
- - 40% more efficient than traditional belt drive forward curve fans
- - Slow ramp up capability for better sound and comfort control - Internal protection from phase reversal and phase loss situations
- - High external static capability
- - Slide out blower assembly design
- Reliable and highly safety protected 2 stage cooling with tandem scroll compressors technology, fully active evaporator coil, and mixed air temperature protection on all models
- New unit control board with intuitive indoor fan that uses simple dial and switch adjustments
- Reliable copper tube/aluminum fin condenser coil with 5/16 in. tubing to help reduce refrigerant charge and reduce weight versus prior designs 48/50FC WeatherMaker® units up to 12.5 tons are specifically designed to fit on Carrier roof curbs that were installed back to 1989, which makes replacement easy and eliminates the need for curb adapters, changing utility connections or supporting curb overhang situations.
- 2 speed staged air volume (SAV) indoor fan speed control helps deliver IEERs up to 15.2. All models are capable of either vertical or horizontal airflow without dedicated models or field install kits.
- With “no-strip” screw collars, handled access panels, and more, the unit is easy to install, easy to maintain, and easy to use. Your new 7.5 to 12.5 ton Carrier WeatherMaker rooftop unit (RTU) provides optimum comfort and control from a packaged rooftop.
Value-added features include:- optional Humidi-MiZer® adaptive dehumidification system for improved part load humidity performance
- SystemVu intuitive intelligent controls option that provides:
- - Large full text
- – multi line display
- - USB Flash Port for data transfer
- - Built in iVu®, CCN and BACnet1
- - Read refrigerant pressures from display
- – no gauges
- - Quick LED Status
- – Run, Alert, Fault
- - Conventional thermostat or sensor capabilities
- - Historical component runtime and starts
- - Supply air tempering
- - Navigator™ and Network Service Tool compatible
- single point gas and electrical connections
- 7.5 to 12.5 ton models use fixed TXV refrigerant metering devices
- Scroll compressors with internal line-break overload protection
- Units come with an easy access toolless filter door. Filter track tilts out for filter removal and replacement. All filters are the same size in each unit
Installation ease
All WeatherMaker units are field-convertible to horizontal airflow, which makes it easy to adjust to unexpected job-site complications. Lighter units make for easy replacement and aid in the structural approval process. Simple, fast plug-in connections to the standard integrated unit control board (UCB). Clearly labeled connections points to reduce installation time. Also, a large control box provides room to work and room to mount Carrier accessory controls.
Easy to maintain
With the new EcoBlue Vane Axial fan system and direct drive ECM motor, there is no longer a need to adjust or replace belts or pulleys as in past designs. This frees up maintenance, installation and commissioning time.
Easy access handles by Carrier provide quick and easy access to all normally serviced components. Our “no-strip” screw system has superior holding power and guides screws into position while preventing the screw from stripping the unit’s metal.
Sloped, corrosion resistant composite drain pan sheds water; and won’t rust.
