The units can be easily converted
from a vertical to a horizontal duct con-
figuration by relocating the panels sup-
plied with the unit.
The non-corrosive sloped conden-
sate pan permits either an external
horizontal side condensate drain (out-
side the roof curb) or an internal verti-
cal bottom drain (inside the roof curb).
Both options require an external, field-
supplied P-trap.
The 48TF units were designed with
service technicians in mind. The
single-row condenser coils on the
48TF004 and 008 units simplify the
cleaning process. The efficient
in-shot burners and all ignition
components are contained in an
easily removable, compact assembly.
The 48TF004-014 units also have a
standard filter access panel, which per-
mits tool-less filter changes, even on
units with horizontal economizers.
Simple electrical connections
Terminal boards, located in the base
unit control box, facilitate connections
to room thermostat, outdoor thermo-
stat(s), and economizer. Service panels
are quickly removed, permitting easy
servicing.
Thru-the-bottom utility connection
capability allow power, control wiring,
and gas to be routed through unit base
pan, minimizing roof penetrations.
Gas, power, and control connections
are made on the same side of the unit
to simplify installation.
In addition, color-coded wires permit
easy tracing and diagnostics.
Proven compressor reliability
Design techniques feature computer-
programmed balance between com-
pressor, condenser, and evaporator.
Carrier-specified hermetic compres-
sors are equipped with compressor
overcurrent and overtemperature pro-
tection to ensure dependability.
All 48TF units have Carrier’s exclu-
sive Acutrol™ metering device which
precisely controls refrigerant flow,
preventing slugging and flood-back,
while maintaining optimum unit
performance. Refrigerant filter driers
are standard.
Integrated economizers and
outdoor air
Optional economizers and manual
outdoor-air dampers introduce outdoor
air which mixes with the conditioned
air, improving indoor-air quality and of-
ten reducing energy consumption.
During a first stage call for cooling, if
the outdoor-air temperature is below
the economizer control changeover
set point, the discharge-air sensor
modulates the economizer outdoor-air
damper open to take advantage of free
cooling provided by the outside air.
When second-stage cooling is called
for, the compressor is energized in
addition to the economizer. If the
outdoor-air temperature is above the
changeover set point, the first stage of
compression is activated and the econ-
omizer stays at vent position. Dura-
blade economizer operation is con-
trolled by a dry-bulb thermostat that
senses outdoor-air temperature.
Accessory upgrade kits allow for
either outdoor air enthaply changeover
or for more precise differential
enthalpy control.
The Durablade economizer (option
or accessory) on the 48TF004-014
units has a reliable sliding plate damper
which is easily adjusted for 100% out-
door air, 100% return air, or any
proportions of mixed air.
The 48TF004-014 units can
also utilize the factory or field-installed
EconoMi$er. The EconoMi$er is
microprocessor controlled and incor-
porates a parallel, opposed-blade gear
driven damper system. In addition, it
has a spring return built into the damp-
er actuator to provide reliable close-on-
power-loss. The EconoMi$er comes
equipped with up to 90% barometric
relief capability for high outdoor air-
flow applications.
In addition, the EconoMi$er two-
stage power exhaust accessory can be
utilized to help maintain proper build-
ing pressure.
For units without economizer, year-
round ventilation is enhanced by a
manual outdoor-air damper (ordered as
an accessory or an option). The damp-
er can be preset to admit up to 50%
outdoor air.
Carrier PremierLink™ con-
trols add reliability, efficiency,
and simplification
The PremierLink direct digital controls
can be ordered as a factory-installed
option or as a field-installed accessory.
Designed and manufactured exclusively
by Carrier, the controls can be used to
actively monitor and control all modes
of operations, as well as monitor the
following diagnostics and features: unit
number, zone temperature, zone set
point, zone humidity set point,
discharge-air temperature, outdoor hu-
midity level, filter status, fire shutdown
status, IAQ set point, enthalpy status,
differential enthalpy status, heat/cool
lockout, CFM set point, pre-occupancy
purge, economizer controls and early
morning warm-up.
This controller has a 38.4K Baud
communications capability and is com-
patible with ComfortLink™ controls,
CCN and ComfortVIEW™ software. The
Scrolling Marquee and Navigator are op-
tional tools that can be used for program-
ming and monitoring the unit for optimal
performance. The addition of the Carrier
CO
2
sensor in the conditioned space
provides ASHRAE 62-99 compliance
and Demand Control Ventilation.
The PremierLink peer-to-peer,
Internet-ready communicating control is
designed specifically for Constant Vol-
ume and Variable Volume and Temper-
ature applications. This comprehensive
controls system allows all Carrier 3 to
25 ton rooftops to be daisy chained
together on a roof to create a fully func-
tional HVAC (heating, ventilation and
air conditioning) automation system.
Carrier Apollo controls
The Apollo communicating controls
are factory-installed into the rooftop
unit control box, and come equipped
with built-in diagnostic capabilities.
Light-emitting diodes (LEDs) simplify
troubleshooting by indicating thermo-
stat commands for both stages of heat-
ing and cooling, evaporator fan opera-
tion, and economizer operation. The
Apollo communicating controls are de-
signed to work specifically with the
Carrier TEMP and VVT® (variable vol-
ume and temperature) thermostats.
The Apollo controls allow the use of an
IAQ (Indoor-Air Quality) sensor. The
Apollo controls, combined with Carrier
thermostats, incorporate a 5-minute
recycle delay timer between modes of
operation to prevent short cycling.
Indoor-air quality begins with
Carrier rooftops
Sloped condensate pans minimize
biological growth in rooftop units in
accordance with ASHRAE (American
Society of Heating, Refrigeration, and
Air Conditioning Engineers) Standard
62. Two-inch filters with optional dirty
filter indicator switch provide for
greater particle reduction in the return
air. The face-split evaporator coils
improve the dehumidification capabili-
ty of standard units, maximize building
humidity control.
Optional proportional reacting
CO
2
sensor is available with the
EconoMi$er to aid the IAQ benefits.
