Features and Benefits
Standard Features for Ultra High Efficiency 3-5 Ton
Units
•
Efficiency
– High efficiency units reach as high as 17.5
SEER and 14.00 EER. Gas/electric units have electronic
spark ignition and power vented combustion with steady
state efficiencies of 80%. These efficiencies exceed all
legislated minimum levels and provide low operating costs.
•
Service Friendly
- The Predator® incorporates a number
of key features for ease of serviceability.
The motor and blower slide out of the unit as a common
assembly. This facilitates greater access to all the indoor
airflow components, thus simplifying maintenance and
adjustment.
Service time is reduced through the use of hinged,
toolless panels. Such panels provide access to frequently
inspected components and areas, including the control
box, compressors, filters, indoor motor & blower, and the
heating section. The panels are screwed in place at the
factory to prevent access by children or other
unauthorized persons. It is recommended that the panels
be secured with screws once service is complete.
Service windows have been placed in both condenser
section walls. Rotation of the cover allows easy access to
the condenser coils for cleaning or inspection.
The Smart Equipment™ control board provides alarm
messages to help quickly identify any faults.
All units use four filters of the same standard size. This
standardization simplifies selections for filter replacement.
The non-corrosive drain pan slides out of the unit to permit
easy cleaning. The drain pan is accessed by removing the
drain pan cover plate on the rear of the unit. Once the plate is
removed, the drain pan slides out through the rear of the unit.
All Predator
®
units have a second model nameplate
located inside the control access door. This is to prevent
deterioration of the nameplate through weathering.
• Indoor Motors -
Units come from the factory with
Premium Efficiency, Inverter rated, Indoor Motor. Both
motor and belt drive blower are mounted on a slide out
assembly for ease of service.
•
VFD
- These factory supplied Variable Frequency Drives
come with a 5 year warranty from the manufacturer. They
also provide ease of commissioning without the need of a
computer to program the motor. That also provide a soft
start which equates to longevity of motor and belt life.
•
Outdoor motors
- Units come from the factory with long
lasting, high efficiency ECM motors.
•
Coil Technology
– All ZT condensers utilize Micro-
Channel “all-aluminum” condensers which provide
improved heat transfer capabilities and reduced charge
volumes. All evaporators utilize a conventional copper
tube/aluminum fin design for proven reliability and
performance.
•
Environmentally Aware
- For improved Indoor Air
Quality, a combination of aluminum foil faced and
elastometric rubber insulations are used exclusively
throughout the units.
•
Balanced Heating
– The Predator
®
two stage gas heating
offers “Ultimate Heating Comfort” with a balance between
1
st
and 2
nd
stage gas heating. The first stage of a gas heat
Predator
®
unit provides 70% or 75% of the heating
capacity.
•
Convertible Airflow Design
– The side duct openings
are covered when they leave the factory. If a side supply/
return is desired, the installer simply removes the two side
duct covers from the outside of the unit and installs them
over the down shot openings. No panel cutting is required.
Convertible airflow design allows maximum field flexibility
and minimum inventory.
•
Advanced Controls
- Smart Equipment™ control boards
have standardized a number of features previously
available only as options or by utilizing additional controls.
•
Units will come with the new state of the art Smart
Equipment™ control system.
The new unit control
incorporates the best of the already proven Simplicity™
controls and creates a more robust, intelligent control. The
goal of this control is to utilize cutting edge technology
making the equipment easier to install, operate, and
service. All units are Factory commissioned, configured,
and run tested.
