Introduction

PF4M models are R-410A Fan Coils designed for installation flexibility.
These units leave the factory compliant with low leak requirements of
less than 2% cabinet leakage rate at 0.5 inches W.C. and 1.4% cabinet
leakage rate at 0.5 inches W.C. when tested in accordance with
ASHRAE 193 standard.
A TXV is used on PF4MNP (018-060) and PF4MNB(019-061). All
these fan coils use a multi-tap ECM motor for efficiency. The units have
be designed for upflow, downflow (kit required), and horizontal
orientations, including manufactured and mobile home applications.
These units require a field supplied air filter, and are designed
specifically for R-410A refrigerant air conditioners and heat pumps as
shipped. These units are available for systems of 18,000 through 60,000
BTUh nominal cooling capacity. Factory- authorized, field - installed
electric heater packages are available in sizes 5 through 30kW. See
Product Data literature for all available accessory kits.

Heater Packages

This unit may or may not be equipped with an electric heater package.
For units not equipped with factory-installed heat, a factory-approved,
field-installed, UL listed heater package is available from your
equipment supplier. See unit rating plate for a list of factory-approved
heaters. Heaters that are not factory approved could cause damage which
would not be covered under the equipment warranty. If fan coil contains
a factory-installed heater package, minimum circuit ampacity (MCA)
and maximum fuse/breaker may be different than units with a same size
field-installed accessory heater. The differences is not an error and is due
to calculation difference per UL guidelines.
