50AH
Horizontal Indoor
Single-Package
Cooling Units
2 to 5 Nominal Tons

Single Package Cooling Units
Featuring:
• compact design
• flexibility
• easy maintenance
• high quality and reliability
• quiet and efficient scroll compressor
technology

Features/Benefits
All in one package — high
cooling efficiency,
installation convenience,
ease of accessibility for timesaving maintenance.
Space and cost saving design
Model 50AH is specifically designed to
provide the building owner with truly outof-sight cooling, because it installs inside
the ceiling. That’s why we call it the Carrier ROOMTOP® unit. The compact design and low silhouette enable it to fit
easily and securely above the conditioned
space. Single-package construction
makes it easy to install with minimal time
and cost.

Application flexibility
If desired for particular applications, the
unit can also be installed as a split system
with the condenser section mounted horizontally. Centrifugal fans permit ducting
of both evaporator and condenser air.

Quiet operation
Commercial end users appreciate the extra comfort of quiet operation. Carrier
engineers met the challenge by specifying heavy insulation, vibration-resistant
construction and operating components
that function at low noise levels, all of
which keep system sound at a minimum
level.

Easy maintenance
When it comes to maintenance, the
50AH rates high in accessibility. Indoor

location is ideal for the maintenance
technician, and five access panels, easily
removed, provide quick and convenient
access to all components when needed.
As an added plus, all required service/
maintenance access can be from one
side allowing the unit to be located
against a wall or ceiling plenum obstruction, an obvious space-saving idea.

Carrier quality and reliability

Scroll compressor technology

The Carrier 50AH ROOMTOP® units
have much to offer the cost- and
efficiency-conscious commercial owner.
Every unit is thoroughly run tested at the
factory and equipped with safety controls
designed to monitor and protect over the
life of the unit.

Scroll compressors are designed for high
efficiency and are internally spring
mounted to minimize vibration noise.
Each compressor is hermetically sealed
against contamination to promote longer
life and dependable operation. Scroll
compressors are standard on all units.

Field-installed accessories
Thermostat and subbase — Attractive wall-mounted
24-v accessory provides precise temperature control.
Automatic and Manual changeover models available. A
thermostat subbase is available that works with CycleLOC™ circuitry. If a safety device trips, compressor locks
out and subbase warning light (LK OUT) alerts occupant.
Three models available: One stage cool/two stage heat;
two stage cool/two stage heat; one stage cool/one stage
heat.
Time Guard® II circuit (standard on single-phase
units) — Time Guard II device prevents short cycling of
compressor if thermostat is rapidly changed; automatically
prevents compressor from restarting for 5 minutes after
shutdown.
Electric heaters — A wide range of models is available
from 5 to 30 kW, 208-, 240- and 480-v, single- and 3-ph
units. The heaters mount easily on 50AH discharge opening. The heater control box is accessible from the bottom
of heater.

Condensate pump — The condensate pump is used
when the distance and slope to the nearest drain is far
enough to prevent the natural drainage of unit. The pump
is mounted remotely from the unit and includes a signal
light (field-installed) which illuminates when the reservoir
rises beyond a certain level. The unit automatically shuts
down when this reservoir level is achieved.
Head pressure control damper — This accessory is
duct mounted and allows unit to mechanically cool down to
0° F.
Damper dimensions fit 024, 036 sizes.
NOTE: For use with 048 and 060 size units, ductwork
from unit to damper must be reduced in size to fit damper
dimensions.
Vibration isolators — Package of four isolators used for
dampening any unit vibration so that vibrating sounds are
not transmitted to building structure. Isolators are spring,
ceiling type.

Selection procedure (with example)
I Determine cooling requirements at design
conditions.
Given:
Gross Cooling Capacity
Required (TC) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .39,000 Btuh
Sensible Heat Capacity (SHC) . . . . . .30,500 Btuh
Temperature of Air Entering Condenser . . . . .95 F
Temperature of Air Entering
Evaporator . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 80 F edb/67 F ewb
Evaporator Air Quantity. . . . . . . . . . . . 1,200 cfm
External Static Pressure:
Condenser . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .0.50 in. wg
Evaporator (includes static pressure
drop of factory-supplied filter
of 0.06 in. wg) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .0.20 in. wg
II Select unit based upon required cooling
capacity.
Enter cooling capacity table at temperature of air
entering condenser of 95 F. The 50AH036 unit at

1200 cfm and 67 F ewb will provide a Total
Capacity (TC) of 44,200 Btuh and a Sensible Heat
Capacity (SHC) of 31,300 Btuh. Since the entering
air is 80 F edb, an SHC correction is not required.
III Determine evaporator fan performance.
Enter Evaporator Fan Performance table at
1200 cfm and 50AH036 data. The external static
pressure shown (0.23 in. wg) will exceed the
0.20 in. wg required. The fan motor will require
0.52 kW.
IV Determine condenser fan performance and
motor pulley setting requirements.
Enter Condenser Fan Performance table at
the selected cfm and required static pressure of
0.50 in. wg. The fan motor will require 0.73 kW
and the motor pulley should be set at 2 turns open
at 1350 cfm of condenser air required.
NOTE: Unit 50AH024 contains a direct-drive condenser fan assembly.

2. SHC is based on 80 F db temperature of air entering the coil.
Below 80 F db, subtract (corr factor x cfm) from SHC.
Above 80 F db, add (corr factor x cfm) to SHC.

5. Minimum one turn open of motor pulley is required on unit sizes 036
and 060.
6. Number of turns open applies to field setting of motor pulley.
7. Factory setting as follows: 036, 4 turns open; 048, 2 turns open; 060,
5 turns open.
8. Care should be taken when hoods and/or louvers are installed to
avoid condenser air recirculation.

Controls
Operating sequence
Cooling — Thermostat calls for cooling. Indoor (evaporator) fan relay is energized and starts evaporator fan. Compressor contactor is energized to start compressor and
condenser fan (up to a 5-minute delay on single-phase
units). When room thermostat is satisfied, the evaporator
fan, compressor, and condenser fan shut off.
Continuous fan operation — The thermostat can be
set for continuous operation by setting the fan switch to
ON.

Field splitting instructions — If components are split,
maximum length of refrigerant tubing to be used is 50 ft,
assuming components are installed in same horizontal
plane. Condenser may be mounted up to 12 ft above evaporator. Liquid line tubing is 3/8-in. OD copper tubing, and
discharge line is 1/2-in. OD copper tubing. For additional
piping information, refer to Carrier System Design Manual, Part 3. Units should always be within line of sight from
each other, or separate NEC (National Electrical Code)

disconnects will be required. Junction boxes should be
installed in both the evaporator and condenser sections
adjacent to D-shaped grommets, to provide a location to
splice the outdoor-fan motor factory wiring (no. 16 AWG
[American Wire Gage], 4/64-in. thick insulation). Field wiring should be a minimum of no. 16 AWG, 4/64-in. thick
insulation. Check all applicable electrical codes to ensure
proper compliance.
