TYPICAL AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM
Overview
The current optional air conditioning dual zone system is
rated at 16 KW featuring a total output of 54,000 BTU’s/
hour (British Thermal Units) at 120 volts domestically
and 240 volts internationally. The system utilizes a single
230 volt pump which delivers cooler seawater to the
evaporator/condenser. Warmer seawater exits the boat
through a manifold and various thru-hull fi ttings.
The evaporator/condenser unit incorporates a compressor
located under the forward berth bunk to compact the R-22
refrigerant.
The Elite control panel (thermostat) for the forward air
conditioning system is located in the main cabin (salon).

NOTE:
If the vessel is hoisted out of the water (except for win-
terization) make sure the A/C seacock is turned to the
“off” position before lifting the vessel. Failure to do so
may cause the air conditioner to loose its prime and the
A/C pump may quit on start-up do to a lack of water or
cause pump failure. Remember to turn the seacock “on”
before re-starting the A/C unit.
