Product Data
The 50ZP is a package air conditioner for manufactured housing, residential, and light commercial applications.
The 50ZP unit design is the result of our firm commitment to the development of the finest air conditioners that
modern technology can offer. The 50ZP unit is built in one basic cabinet size and features rectangular duct
configuration on sizes 036-060.

Features/Benefits
FACTORY-ASSEMBLED PACKAGE is a compact, fully
self-contained, electric cooling unit with horizontal supply
and return ducts. The 50ZP units are available in a variety
of standard cooling sizes with voltage options to meet
residential and light commercial requirements. Unit
installs easily on a ground level pad.

EASY TO INSTALL
50ZP units are small, compact, and easy to handle.
Every 50ZP unit has an identical 32 x 51-in. footprint to
make planning simple. The concise design uses less
sheet metal and makes the 50ZP units lighter than other
units. The unit can be easily positioned on the jobsite
with the hand-holds built into the unit basepan. Drop-in
cartridge style heaters are utilized to minimize
installation time. The 50ZP unit was designed with
potential safety hazards in mind; with no sharp edges or
corners which could injure a worker.

NEW IMPROVED AERODYNAMIC FAN BLADE DESIGN

reduces the overall sound by up to 6dB; now as low as
78dB.

TOP COVER SERVICE ACCESS

Makes installation and maintenance quicker and easier.
The 50ZP units are designed to be serviced from the top.
The split-top design allows easy access for installation and
maintenance procedures of the unit. Routine maintenance
tasks such as coil cleaning are sped up with through-the-
top access. Multiple side panels do not need to be
removed as with other units.

NO-RUST BASEPAN WITH

INTEGRATED DRAIN PAN
Is standard on all units. The 50ZP units feature a toug
hightech, composite material basepan with integrated
drain pan. The composite material eliminates the potential
problems of rust and premature replacement which are
common with standard metal basepans. Durable oven
backed polyester powder painted galvanized steel)
protects against harsh weather.

50ZP-04 PD 2011
 The watertight construction and corrosion-
resistant finish of the 50ZP unit will
keep it looking like new for years. The paint
treatment process ensures quality protection
against the elements.
INDOOR AIR QUALITY is designed into the
50ZP units. A sloped drain pan minimizes the
amount of standing water inside the unit, which
limits mold and mildew growth. The drain pan
is made of a rust-proof material and will not
deteriorate or release foreign matter into the
airstream.
LIGHTWEIGHT, COMPACT
CONSTRUCTION is ideal for manufactured
housing and residential applications. The 50ZP
unit is one of the lightest, most compact
packaged units ever designed. It’s light weight
(250 lbs for the 50ZP 036 unit) makes the unit
easier to handle. The low height keeps ductwork
connections to a minimum and makes units less
visible.
The 50ZP units utilize a structural beam design
to form the four sides of the cabinet. Only 12
different pieces of sheet metal are used in the
unit construction to simplify the unit for greater
reliability.
50ZP
performance level can reduce cooling expenses
by as much as 25% compared to older cooling
equipment. A high-eficiency, multi-speed
blower motor system ensures quality
performance with most duct systems. The
computer-designed blower wheel is balanced
for quiet operation.
DURABLE, DEPENDABLE,
COMPRESSORS are designed for high
efficiency. Each compressor is hermetically
sealed against contamination to help promote
longer life and dependable operation. Vibration
isolation provides quiet operation. Compressors
have internal high-pressure and overcurrent
protection.
DIRECT-DRIVE MULTISPEED, PSC
(PERMANENT SPLIT CAPACITOR)
BLOWER MOTOR is standard on all models.
Direct-drive, PSC condenser-fan motors are
designed to help reduce energy consumption
and provide for cooling operation down to 40 F.
REFRIGERANT SYSTEM is designed to
provide dependability. Liquid refrigerant
strainers are used to promote clean, unrestricted
operation. Each unit leaves the factory with a
full refrigerant charge. Refrigerant service
Controls — Contains high- and
low-pressure switches to protect the unit from
running at unsuitable pressures. Provides
additional safety features when needed.
Solid-State Time Guard® Device —
Provides a 5-minute delay in compressor
operation between cooling cycles. Prevents
compressor short cycling when rapid
compressor cycles may be a problem.
FIELD-INSTALLED ACCESSORY
DESCRIPTION AND USAGE
Electric Heater — Heater module slides into
keyed mounting slots in the fan inlet. Heater
sizes range from 5.0 to 20.0 kW. Design allows
for single-point supply for entire unit. Heaters
provide heating capability when required.
Crankcase Heater — Warms crankcase oil to
reduce refrigerant migration and ensure proper
compressor lubrication. (Field Installed).
Outdoor Thermostat — Accessory provides
control when outdoor-air temperature falls
below set point. Helps to bring second stage of
2-stage electric heater on line.

Operating sequence
COOLING
NOTE: With the FAN switch in the ON position, 24 v is
supplied to the time-delay relay (TDR) through the G terminal
on the thermostat. This voltage energizes the coil of the relay,
closing the normally-open set of contacts which provide
continuous power to the indoor (evaporator) fan motor (IFM).
Moving the FAN switch back to the AUTO position (providing
there is not a call for cooling) deenergizes the TDR (when
applicable) which deenergizes the IFM after a 30-second delay.
The FAN switch in AUTO position cycles upon a call for
cooling.
On a call for cooling, 24 v is supplied to the compressor
contactor (C) and TDR simultaneously through the Y and G
terminals of the thermostat, respectively. On units with a
compressor TDR, there is a built-in, 5-minute (±45 seconds)
delay between compressor starts. Energizing the contactor
closes the normally-open set of contacts supplying power to
both the compressor and outdoor (condenser) fan motor (OFM).
HEATING
When power is supplied to unit, transformer (TRAN) is
energized. On units with crankcase heater (CH), heater is also
energized.
With thermostat set to call for heating, sequence of operation is
as follows:
On a call for heat, circuit R-W and R-G are made through first-
stage thermostat bulb. If accessory electric heaters are used, a
relay is energized, bringing on first stage of supplemental
electric heat and fan. When thermostat is satisfied, contacts
open, deenergizing relay (on all units) and time-delay relay (on
units equipped with time-delay relay). Heaters deenergize, and
evaporator fan stops after a 30-second time delay (on units
equipped with time-delay relay).

50ZP
Energizing the TDR closes the normally-open set of contacts
providing power to the IFM. On the loss of the call for cooling,
24 v is removed from both the Y and G terminals of the
thermostat (providing the FAN switch is in the AUTO position),
deenergizing both the compressor and TDR and opening both
the contacts supplying power to compressor/OFM. IFM has a
30-second delay.
