ARCTIC-AIRHANDLER-LV-Z-750-BU
Efficient Hydronic Air Handler / Blower Unit for 1.5–2 Ton Systems
The ARCTIC-AIRHANDLER-LV-Z-750-BU is a high-performance blower unit in the LV-Z series built to integrate with hydronic heating and cooling systems (heat pumps, geothermal, condensing boilers). It offers adaptive airflow, quiet operation, and zoning support in a compact package ideal for residential or light commercial applications.
❄️ Oversized 6-Row Hydronic Coil for Superior Heat Transfer
-
Utilizes a 6-row copper & aluminum coil (10 FPI) to maximize thermal exchange even at lower water temperatures.
-
Heating output up to 62,100 BTU/h (≈ 18.2 kW) when supplied with 190 °F water.
-
Cooling (chilled water) capability supports loads from ~18,700 to 25,100 BTU/h depending on entering water temps.
-
Maintains a low pressure drop (≈ 2.4 ft H₂O) at nominal flow, preserving pump efficiency.
⚡ Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) Motor & 3-Phase Direct Drive
-
The motor runs on variable speed, adjusting fan output precisely to system demand.
-
No start-up capacitor is needed, enabling smoother, quieter operation and self-adaptation to changing loads.
-
Typical airflow rating: 800 CFM at 0.6" ESP for the LV-Z-750 BU configuration.
📏 Adaptive Static Pressure Sensing & Fan Control
-
Built-in static pressure sensor monitors the duct system in real time.
-
When airflow paths change (zones close, filters clog, etc.), the unit adjusts RPM to maintain ideal performance.
-
This helps reduce noise, energy waste, and oversizing concerns in multi-zone or variable duct layouts.
🔧 Blower Unit Format & Flexibility
-
The “BU” (Blower Unit) variant is designed to accept separate coils (hydronic, chilled water, or refrigerant) and ideal for modular setups.
-
Supports multiple installation orientations: vertical (hi-boy), horizontal, or counterflow.
-
Compact footprint ensures easier placement in tight mechanical rooms or closets.
