while not restricting airflow and
maintaining ease of coil cleaning. Finally,
all screws on cabinet exterior are ceramic
coated for a long-lasting, rust-resistant,
quality appearance..
High Efficiency Performance
— Is
delivered through a combination of
features including Carrier’s Puron
refrigerant, scroll compressor, and
advanced heat transfer surfaces. Efficiency
ratings are 14 SEER (Seasonal Energy
Efficiency Ratio) with enhanced ratings of
up to 15.75 SEER. Sophisticated heat
transfer surfaces utilized in Carrier’s
38TSA design allow heat to easily be
transferred to the outdoor air and requires
less energy. The scroll compressor found in
the 38TSA design performs quietly and
adds to the overall efficiency of the system.
Finally, Carrier’s Puron refrigerant
operates more efficiently than R-22
refrigerant found in other systems. The
efficiency levels provided by the 38TSA
provide end users with lower costs of
operation than traditional air conditioning
systems.
Assured Future Service
— By utilizing
the environmentally sound refrigerant,
Puron®, 38TSA models will remain
serviceable well into the future. The Clean
Air Act of 1990 has placed a cap on
production of most other refrigerants
which has scheduled reductions beginning
in 2004. The resulting cap in production
ultimately results in a complete ban on
many other refrigerants in new equipment
by the year 2010. These changes, required
by federal law, mean the supply of other
refrigerants may be limited in the near
future making Puron® the correct choice
when considering long term serviceability.
Highly Reliable Performance
— Is
delivered through the superior design of
the system and componentry. The
reliability of the Performance™ 14
models have been proven to provide the
lowest incidence of warranty service of
any product in the Carrier family. Long
term reliability is assured through the use
of both high and low pressure switches
which will not allow the system to operate
in the event of a significant change in
operating pressure. In doing this, the
system is protected from damage if an
unusual condition arises. Finally, Carrier
includes a special liquid line filter drier
designed to trap moisture and
contaminants which could otherwise
shorten the life of the system.
Carrier’s Silencer System
— Is one of
the most sought after features of the
38TSA family. Extremely low operating
sound is the result of special attention to the
air moving through the outdoor unit, a
specially designed sound enclosure
surrounding the compressor, and an
exclusive laminated plate beneath the
compressor to eliminate sound
transmission to the rest of the system.
Application Versatility
— Carrier’s
systems utilizing Puron® refrigerant have
the same application guidelines as other
systems. Applications which include long
line sets (50 to 175 ft) or applications
which require the system to operate at low
outdoor temperatures (below 55°F,
12.8°C) are approved under Carrier’s
standard guidelines.
Carrier Coils and Fan Coils to Complete
the System
— Carrier specially designs
both the outdoor product and indoor coil
products to operate with assured reliability
and performance. A wide range of indoor
coil options are listed in the ratings section
of this publication.
Special Protective Devices
— High- and
low-pressure switches and internal
protection in the compressor including
temperature and current sensing overloads
prevent operation under potentially
damaging circumstances. A special liquid
line filter drier designed to trap nearly 4
times the volume of contaminants of
standard driers provides superior protection
from moisture trapped in the system.
Electrical Range
— 208/230v, single
phase.
Wide Range of Sizes
—Available in six
sizes: 2 through 5 tons.
Totally Enclosed Fan Motor
—
Protected from adverse weather
conditions.
Unit Design
— Enhanced copper and
aluminum heat transfer surfaces with
vertical air discharge to direct air up and
away from the area.
External Service Valves
— Both service
valves are back seating type valves which
are externally located. These unique valves
allow service technicians to evacuate or
charge the system in less time than
standard service valves.
Easy Serviceability
— Easy removal of
panels provides access to both electrical
and refrigerant carrying components,
simplifying installation and service. All
models are equipped with a compressor
terminal plug.
Agency Approvals
— 38TSA models
are listed with UL (U.S. and Canada), ARI,
and CEC. Special endorsements have also
been awarded these products by Energy
Star® which recognizes energy efficient
products.
Limited Warranty
—A 10-year
limited warranty on compressor and
5-year limited warranty on parts.
