This highly featured and reliable air conditioner is designed for years of reliable, efficient operation when matched with Rheem indoor aluminum evaporator coils and furnaces or air handler units with aluminum evaporators. Our unique composite base (TI) reduces sound emission, elimi- nates rattles, significantly reduces fasteners, eliminates corro- sion and has integrated brass compressor attachment inserts (❑2 ). Furthermore it has incorporated into the design, water management features, means for hand placement (FA]) for unit maneuvering, screw trays (®) and inserts for lifting off unit pad. 051) _qq _ 0 0 Service Valves (©) are rigidly mounted in the composite base with 3" between suction and discharge valves, 4" clearance below service valves and a minimum of 5" above the service valves, creating industry leading installation ease. The minimum 27 square -inches around the service valves allows ample room to remove service valve schrader prior to brazing, plenty of clear- ance for easy brazing of the suction and discharge lines to ser- vice valve outlets, easy access and hookup of low loss refriger- ant gauges (❑� ), and access to the service valve caps for opening. For applications with long -line lengths up to 250 feet total equivalent length, up to 200 feet condenser above evapora- tor, or up to 80 feet evaporator above condenser, the long -line instructions in the installation manual should be followed. Controls are accessed from the corner of the unit by removing only two fasteners from the control access cover, revealing the industry's largest 15" wide and 14" tall control area (®). With all this room in the control area the high voltage electrical whip (❑s ) can easily be inserted through the right size opening in the bot- tom of the control area. Routing it leads directly to contractor lugs for connection. The low voltage control wires (10) are easily connected to units low voltage wiring. If contactor or capacitor (ii) needs to be replaced there is more than adequate space to make the repair. Furthermore, if high pressure and low pressure model was not purchased but is desired to be installed in the field, the service window (12) can be removed by removing two screws, to access the high and low side schrader fittings for easy field installation. The entire corner can be removed providing ultimate access to install the high and low pressure switch. (RN) If in the rare event, greater access is needed to internal compo- nents, such as the compressor, the entire corner of the unit can be removed along with the top cover assembly to have unprece- dented access to interior of the unit (14). Extra wire length is,. incorporated into each outdoor fan and compressor so top cover and control panel can be positioned next to the unit. With minimal effort the plug can be removed from the compressor and the outdoor fan wires can be removed from the capacitor to allow even more uncluttered access to the interior of the unit (9). Outdoor coil heights range from as short as 22" to 28", aiding access to the compressor. Disassembly to this degree and com- plete reassembly only takes a first time service technician less than 10 minutes. (is) _14 16 is 18 All units utilize strong formed louver panels which provide indus- try leading coil protection. Louver removal for coil cleaning is accomplished by removing one screw and lifting the panel out of the composite base pan. (H) All RA13 units utilize single row coils (16) making cleaning easy and complete, restoring the performance of the air conditioner back to out of the box perfor- mance levels year after year. ❑® The outdoor fan motor has sleeve bearings and is inherently protected. The motor is totally enclosed for maximum protection from weather, dust and corrosion. Access to the outdoor fan is made by removing four fasteners from the fan grille. The outdoor fan can be removed from the fan grille by removing 4 fasteners in the rare case outdoor fan motor fails. Each cabinet has optimized composite (is) fan orifice assuring efficient and quiet airflow. r` m - I - --- i INTEGRATED HOME COMFORT =I Air Features & Benefits 'a I RA13 Series The entire cabinet has powder post paint (20) achieving 1000 hour salt spray rating, allowing the cabinet to retain its aesthetics throughout its life. Scroll compressors with standard internal pressure relief and internal thermal overload are used on all capacities assuring longevity of high efficient and quiet operation for the life of the product. Each unit is shipped with filter drier for field installation and will trap any moisture or dirt that could contaminate the refrigerant system. 2s All cabinets have industry leading structural strength due to the composite base pan (zi ), interlocking corner post (zz) formed curved louver panels (z3) and drawn top cover (24) making it the most durable cabinet on the market today. Each RA13 capacity has undergone rigorous psychometric test ing to assure performance ratings of capacity, SEER and EER per AHRI Standard 210/240 rating conditions. Also each unit bears the UL mark and each unit is certified c 4L S to UL 1995 safety standards. LISTED Each unit has undergone specific strain and modal testing to assure tubing (25) is outside the units natural frequency and that the suction and discharge lines connected to the compressor withstand any starting, steady state operation or shut down forces imposed by the compressor. Optional Accessories (Refer to accessory chart for model #) Compressor Crankcase Heater Protects against refrigerant migration that can occur during low ambient operation Compressor Sound Cover • Reinforced vinyl compressor cover containing a 11/2 inch thick batt of fiberglass insulation • Open edges are sealed with a one -inch wide hook and loop fastening tape Compressor Hard Start Kit • Single-phase units are equipped with a PSC compressor motor, this type of motor normally does not need a potential relay and start capacitor • Kit may be required to increase the compressor starting torque, in conditions such as low voltage Low Ambient Kit • Air conditioners operate satisfactorily in the cooling mode down to 55°F outdoor air temperature without any additional controls • This Kit can be added in the field enabling unit to operate properly down to 0° in the cooling mode • Crankcase heater and freezestat should be installed on com- pressors equipped with a low ambient kit 3"/6"/12" • Gray high density polyethylene feet are available to raise unit off of mounting surface away from moisture Low Pressure • Can be added in field enabling the unit to shut off compressor on loss of charge NOTE: Unit can be purchased with high and low pressure installed at factory. (Refer to SKU list) High Pressure • Can be added in field enabling unit to shut off compressor if unit loses outdoor fan operation. NOTE: Unit can be purchased with high and low pressure installed at factory. (Refer to SKU list) All units have been sound tested in sound chamber to AHRI 270 Decorative Top rating conditions, and A -weighted Sound Power Level tables • Can be installed on fan grille produced, assuring units have acceptable noise qualities (see page 9). Each unit has been ran in cooling operation at 95°F and 82°F and sound ratings for the RA13 range from as low as 73 dBA to 79 dBA. All units have been ship tested to assure units meet stringent "over the road" shipping conditions. As manufactured all units in the RA13 family have cooling capa- bility to 55 °F. Addition of low ambient control will allow the unit to operate down to 0°F. Factory testing is performed on each unit. All component parts meet well defined specification and continually go through receiving inspections. Each component installed on a unit is scanned, assuring correct component uti- lization for a given unit capacity and voltage. All condenser coils are leak tested with pressurization test to 550#'s and once installed and assembled, each units' complete refrigerant system is helium leak tested. All units are fully charged from the factory for up to 15 feet of piping. All units are factory run tested. The RA13 has a 10-year conditional compressor and parts war- ranty (registration required).
