STANDARD FEATURES CABINET The AirBoss Series cabinet is constructed of 18 gauge steel with a gray polyester powder coated finish that will compliment any decor. The entire cabinet is insulated with a soundabsorbing insulation for cool, quiet comfort. All units come equipped with handles and swivel casters for portability and convenient set-up. ELECTRONIC THERMOSTAT All Air Boss unit are equipped with a non-programmable electronic thermostat.
APPLICATIONS SPOT COOLER The Air Boss can be used in an open environment to cool specific objects or "spots". Spot Cooling is a convenient and economical way to provide air conditioning where cooling the entire space is impractical. Cool air is discharged from the unit and is directed where it is needed. Nozzle kits can be used to improve direction of the cooling airflow.
SERVICE CORD All AirBoss Series units are equipped with the standard ten foot long service cord with plug configurations and receptacle requirements as shown in this chart. PAC1211, PAC1811, PAC2412 and PAC3612 units come with LCDI (Leakage Current Detection & Interruption) devices that serve as a means of electrical protection. CAUTION—DO NOT USE THE LCDI AS AN ON/OFF SWITCH FOR THE UNIT All 3-phase models are equipped with locking plugs for added connection reliability.
CONDENSATE RESERVOIR TANK For Air Boss Models PAC12, PAC18, PAC24 and PAC36, a 5-gallon polyethylene tank is provided standard, to collect condensate. The tank is located in the lower, front section of the unit. A high water level cut-out switch is used to stop the compressor and condenser fan automatically when the tank's pre-set water level has been reached. The evaporator fan will continue to run, circulating air.

ACCESSORIES 2 x 2 CEILING DUCT-PANEL CEILING PANEL DUCT KIT, CK-12, CK-16 A ceiling panel kit is available for discharging the condenser air above a drop ceiling.. The ceiling panel duct kits are furnished with a white vinyl coated flexible duct that allows for convenient installation. A 2ft X 2ft ceiling duct- panel is included to replace a 2ft X 2ft drop-ceiling panel where the connection is desired. VINYL COATED FABRIC DUCT DUCT STRAP The CK-12 is available for all Air Boss models except the 5-ton.
ACCESSORIES DISCHARGE AIR NOZZLE KIT ASSEMBLY (2NK) The optional discharge nozzle kits are used to direct the conditioned air to a specific target area. By concentrating the airflow, the nozzles increase the air velocity towards production lines to cool personnel or equipment. In server rooms, the nozzles can be used to induce airflow through the rack to remove the hot air from the area of the equipment.
ACCESSORIES CONDENSER RETURN AIR PLENUM, 2DCP Condenser return air plenums are available for installations where it is required to duct air to the inlet of the condenser. The plenum easily attaches with one screw to the back of the unit, and is provided with flange(s) for connecting 12-inch flexible ducting. A condenser return air plenums can substantially reduce air noise and allows the unit to operate without drawing condenser air from the conditioned space.
ACCESSORIES EVAPORATOR RETURN AIR PLENUM, DEP Evaporator return air plenums are available for installations where it is required to duct air to the inlet of the evaporator. The evaporator return air plenums allow the user to connect round duct (flexible or rigid) to the return air intake to reduce air noise and increase the number of options for solving difficult cooling problems. The plenum attaches to the front of the unit, replacing the return air grill.
ACCESSORIES Discharge Duct Adapter, 2DDA AND DDA Discharge duct adapters are available for applications where ducted evaporator discharge is required. The adapters can be easily installed on the unit without fasteners, and be installed for either vertical or horizontal ducting. The standard discharge grille is removed and the DDA is attached in the grill opening. 2DDA-6 for PAC1211, converts the evaporator discharge to a 6-inch diameter round duct.
