NOTES:
1. Extensive motor and electrical testing on the Carrier units has ensured that
the full horsepower range of the motor can be utilized with confidence.
Using the fan motors up to the horsepower ratings shown in the Motor Lim-
itations table will not result in nuisance tripping or premature motor fail-
ures. Unit warranty will not be affected.
2. All motors comply with Energy Policy Act (EPACT) Standards effective
October 24, 1997.
Table 40A — Air Quantity Limits (48AJ,AK,AW,AY)
LEGEND NOTE: Variable air volume units will operate down to 70 cfm/ton in Cooling
mode. Performance at 70 cfm/ton is limited to unloaded operation and may be
also limited by edb (entering dry bulb) and ewb (entering wet bulb) conditions.
Table 40B — Air Quantity Limits (50AJ,AK,AW,AY)
*Operation at these levels may be limited by entering evaporator air wet bulb temperatures.
