DESCRIPTION

The RAC13L models are optimized for the 13 SEER Regional
Minimum Efficiency in the North US and Canada, and are spe-
cifically designed to be matched with Johnson Controls Unitary
Products indoor coils, furnaces, and air handlers to provide a
complete system solution.

FEATURES

• Easier Installation - Independent panels provide quick
access for unit setup. Installation time is reduced by easy
power and control wiring access. Options are provided for
indoor piston or TXV. The factory installed filter-drier and fac-
tory charge for a 15-Ft lineset means less time spent brazing
and charging the system. The small base dimension and
reduced unit clearances make for easier retrofits.
• Durable Finish - The coated steel wire fan guard, coated
external fasteners, and pre-treated G90-equivalent galva-
nized steel chassis components resist corrosion and rust
creep. Powdercoat paint further protects external panels.
• Louvered Coil Protection - Two stamped steel louvered
panels protect the coil from mechanical damage.
• Quality Coils - The high efficiency microchannel aluminum
coil is manufactured using an improved material system pro-
viding reliable performance and small unit size.
• Protected Compressor - Compressors are protected inter-
nally by a high pressure relief valve and a temperature sen-
sor, and externally by the system high pressure switch. The
liquid line filter-drier is factory installed to protect the com-
pressor against moisture and debris.
• Environmentally Friendly - CFC-free R-410A refrigerant
delivers environmentally friendly performance with zero
ozone depletion.
• Top Discharge - Warm air is blown up, away from the struc-
ture and any landscaping and allows compact location on
multi-unit applications.
• Agency Listed - Safety certified by CSA to UL 1995 / CSA
22.2. Performance certified to ANSI/AHRI Standard 210/240
in accordance with the Unitary Small Equipment certification
program.
