Hydronic Coil designed to work with Low and Medium Temperature Hot Water 35 to 85°C (86 to 185° F) and Standard Chilled Water Temperature 3 to 12C (37.4 to 53.6°F 2 Pipe System – DC Five (5) Speeds Fan – Power Supply 120-230V/MPH /60HZ-Modbus Controller with R$485 Connection Port

Introduction

Hydro Solar Innovative Energy Ultra-Thin Hydronic Fan Coil Units (FCU) use forced air convection to either dissipate heat or extract heat from living space. Our FCUs have DC Fan Five (5) Speeds, which make them 30% m o r e energy efficient than conventional 3 speeds FCUs. Fan Speed is controlled by an advanced Modbus control board, equipped with RS485 Modbus connection and 120V relay outputs for third party valve control. Hydronic Heating and Cooling coil are designed to work on low temperature hot water, which make them suitable to be combined with either air to water heat pumps or geothermal heat pumps. Their low noise, ultra-thin casing 130mm (5.12 inches), and attractive aesthetic look give these unit a competitive advantage over other FCU in the market.

Indoor Operating Conditions
The below table defines the minimum and maximum temperatures of the room where FCU is located as well as Heat Transfer Fluid (HTF) minimum and maximum supply temperatures. When operating outside the below temperature ranges, FCU will shut down and controller will show corresponding alarm signal and alarm code

Minimum Installation Clearances
FCU shall be installed with enough space around it for both air circulation and proper maintenance. FCU can be floor or wall mounted as below:

Cleaning or replacing filter
FCU is supplied with cleanable air filter. We recommend cleaning it once a month or more frequently if unit ins installed in a dusty environment. We Highly recommend turning off the machine before removing air filter.

Air filter can be cleaned either by blowing air on it or by washing it with water. Before re-installing filter in FCU, make sure it’s clean and dry.
