ARCTIC-AIR-HE-Z-50-BU
Premium Hydronic Air Handler / Fan Coil for Heat Pump & Zoning Systems
The ARCTIC-AIR-HE-Z-50-BU is a high-performance, zonable hydronic air handler / fan coil designed specifically for modern heat pump, geothermal, and low-temperature boiler systems. It blends intelligent airflow control, quiet operation, and efficient heat transfer, making it ideal for upscale residential or light commercial applications.
❄️ Oversized Heat Exchanger & High-Efficiency Transfer
-
Equipped with a 6-row hydronic coil (copper & aluminum) for exceptional heat exchange, even at lower water temperatures.
-
Capable of handling both low-temperature heating sources and conventional high-temperature systems.
-
Advanced internal loop design limits pressure drop, maintaining pump efficiency and maximizing performance.
⚙️ Variable-Speed VFD Motor with Pressure Sensing
-
3-phase direct-drive motor with a variable frequency drive (VFD) ensures ultra-quiet, smooth operation.
-
Integrated static pressure sensor monitors duct conditions and dynamically adjusts RPM to maintain optimal airflow under varying load (e.g. closed zones, clogged filters).
-
Automatically adapts to system demand, reducing energy waste and noise.
📐 Purpose-Built for Zoning & Flexibility
-
The “HE-Z” series is inherently zoning-capable, offering built-in support for multiple zones. (HE-Z models include pressure sensing and control logic to manage variable zone loads).
-
Pre-wired zone dampers and actuators can be incorporated to streamline installation.
-
Multi-orientation layout (vertical, horizontal, counterflow) supports versatile placement in basements, closets, or utility rooms.
📏 Dimensions & Capacity Highlights
According to HE-Z series specifications:
-
Unit dimensions (HE-Z-50 H/BU): ~ 32 5/16″ (height) × 14 1/2″ (width) × 18 1/4″ (depth)
-
Shipping weight: ~ 85 lbs (≈ 38.6 kg)
-
Accepts standard duct collar sizes (e.g. 8″ round outlets) and supports adequate pressure and airflow ranges per model rating.
🏠 Ideal Applications
-
Homes or buildings using heat pumps, geothermal loops, or condensing boilers who want integrated air handling with ducted distribution.
-
Systems needing zone control with efficient, adaptive airflow to reduce imbalance, noise, and energy waste.
-
Retrofitting older hydronic systems to support forced-air distribution and modern zoning.
-
Installations where space is limited and flexible orientation is required.
