Carrier is in the process of expanding its line of WeatherExpert packaged rooftop units with the new high outdoor air system, a light commercial rooftop unit capable of conditioning up to 100% outdoor air.
Able to operate with up to 100% outdoor air for ventilation or make-up air or building ventilation, the WeatherExpert high outdoor air systems can pair with space air conditioning and heating systems, such as Carrier VRF, water source heat pumps or rooftop units, to provide a complete HVAC solution for schools, hotels or office buildings.
Carrier A Series Rooftop products are pre-wired and charged with refrigerant and tested in both cooling and heating modes at the factory. All models feature an industrial grade cabinet with fully hinged access panels. Superior supply fan performance with up to 3.5 in. external static pressure is standard.
Units are available in Constant Volume (CV), Staged Air Volume (SAV) or Variable Air Volume (VAV) applications. A wide variety of gas options are available. Units come standard with ComfortLink™ control and Scroll compressors on dual independent TXV controlled refrigeration circuits.
The Carrier WeatherExpert high outdoor air units will be available in nominal 6, 7.5, 10 and 15-ton cooling capacities. Image supplied by Carrier
