INSTALLATION GUIDE
2. Introduction
The AEW Series air handlers are versatile upflow only models that
can be recess mounted or flush mounted onto walls. These air han-
dlers have the following standard features:
I. Application Versatility
Front or bottom return air position. Offset hanging brackets attach to
unit and wall to allow hanging inside closet.
Can be ARI matched with most brands of air conditioners or heat
pumps for use with either R22 or R410a when proper metering de-
vice is used.
II. Motor
X13 speeds and torques are controlled by software embedded in the
motor to maintain constant torque. Motors are pre-programmed at
the factory.
III. Cabinet
Sturdy, short galvanized steel cabinet with painted front panels. Cab-
inet fully insulated with 1/2" faced insulation to prevent sweating and
mold growth, to encapsulate glass fibers, and to provide excellent
R-value. Stick pins ensure insulation remains in place.
Units ship with disposable filter in filter rack.
IV. Modular Electric Heat Kits
Heat kits available with either circuit breakers or terminal blocks.
Available in 3, 5, 8, & 10 KW. Models with electric heat include se-
quencers and temperature limit switches for safe, efficient operation.
Modules are easily installed in the field using molex plugs or can be
ordered factory-installed. Controls are accessible from the front for
easy service.
Electrical connections can be made from the top or left. Disconnect
does not protrude through the wall panel.
Fan time delay relay standard for increased efficiency.
V. Blower
Direct drive multi-speed blowers circulate air quietly and efficiently.
Motor speeds can be easily selected via motor terminals. Swing
mounted blowers can be easily removed for service.
VI. Electronic Circuit Board
Electronic circuit board provides 30 sec. ON/OFF blower time delay
extracting more heat/cool from the coil
