Outdoor mechanical rooms
AAON LL Series outdoor mechanical rooms allow a condensing unit, chiller, and pumping package to reside outside of a building, saving valuable interior building space. Featuring evaporatively cooled condensing; variable-capacity, oil-free magnetic-bearing compressors; variable-flow primary pumping; and load-matching modulation capabilities, these chilled-water systems far exceed the latest energy standards. Energy-efficiency ratios (EERs) as high as 17.5 and integrated part-load values (IPLVs) as low as 0.49 kw per ton are possible with complete systems, while EERs as high as 19.4 and IPLVs as low as 0.41 kw per ton are possible with compressors only. Walk-in service access is provided to the controls, compressors, and water system.

Rooftop units
Available in 3- to 25-ton sizes, Carrier WeatherMaster packaged rooftop units meet or exceed ENERGY STAR and Consortium for Energy Efficiency levels, which makes them energy-efficient and eligible for a variety of incentives. With single-point electrical and gas connections, certified and pre-engineered factory options, and field-installed accessories, they were designed for simplified installation. Most 3- to 10-ton models fit on Carrier roof curbs dating to the 1980s, which makes replacement easy and eliminates the need for curb adapters or the changing of utility connections. Factory- and field-stocked, WeatherMaster units are available in gas-heating/electric-cooling, electric-heating/electric-cooling, or packaged-heat-pump models. Units deliver seasonal energy-efficiency ratios (SEERs) as high as 15.8 and EERs as high as 13.0.

Firetube boiler
CBEX from Cleaver-Brooks is a completely integrated boiler, burner, control, and heat-recovery system. Every core component was designed and built to work together, resulting in the most efficient and lowest-emission firetube system ever built. Features include minimum excess air across the operating range, the ability to meet 5-ppm nitrogen-oxide-emissions requirements and 1-ppm carbon-monoxide-emissions requirements, and a footprint 15-percent smaller than that of traditional designs.

Thermal cameras
FLIR's new E-Series thermal cameras can be used to scan for duct leaks, uneven condenser-unit patterns, blocked valves, electrical and mechanical overheating, air infiltration, plugged coils, server-room air distribution, refrigerant levels, clogged pipes, and more, facilitating the location and troubleshooting of potential problems. With industry-first Wi-Fi connectivity, the E-Series lets users link to iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch devices with FLIR Viewer, an application that makes importing, analyzing, and sharing images easy.

Scroll chillers
With capacities of 25 to 190 tons, the AGZ-D family of air-cooled scroll chillers is efficient, exceeding requirements of ANSI/ASHRAE/IESNA Standard 90.1, Energy Standard for Buildings Except Low-Rise Residential Buildings, and quiet, with sound-pressure ratings as low as 60 dBA without attenuation. AGZ-D chillers are available in standard North American voltages, as well as 400/50 Hz and 380/60 Hz; utilize environmentally acceptable R-410A refrigerant; are easy to install and service; and work in many different environments. The Open Choices feature allows the chillers to work easily with building-automation systems using the LonTalk, BACnet, or Modbus open protocols. All dual-circuit models qualify for LEED Energy & Atmosphere Credit 4, Enhanced Refrigerant Management.

Ceiling-mounted air conditioner
Designed to protect servers and other heat-sensitive equipment, the compact, self-contained CM25 ceiling-mounted air conditioner provides 25,000 Btuh of cooling. Its high sensible-cooling capacity and SEER of 14 are made possible by an energy-saving, variable-speed inverter compressor and inverter fan motors. Additional green features include R-410A refrigerant and Restriction of Hazardous Substances compliance. A wall-mounted controller offering advanced communications, monitoring, and self-diagnosis capabilities comes standard. At just 20 in. in height, the CM25 fits in tight spaces. A built-in mounting bracket, flanges, and vibration isolators allow easy installation above a drop ceiling using standard, off-the-shelf hardware.

Duct Smoke Detectors
NEMA 4-rated InnovairFlex duct smoke detectors operate in the most challenging conditions—airflow speeds from 100 to 4,000 fpm, temperatures from -4°F to 158°F, and humidity from 0 to 95 percent (non-condensing)—without the need for bulky enclosures. Their watertight, ultraviolet-resistant housing provides protection against falling dirt, rain, windblown dust, splashing, and hose-directed water.
