NOTES:
1. All dimensions and nozzle nominal pipe sizes are given in inches unless noted otherwise.
2. Operating charge at OPL is based on ammonia @ +0F RT having a density of 41.3654 lbf at this temperature.
3. Liquid makeup connection is on the top of the wet return connection. Wet return connection sized for concurrent return
and liquid makeup flow.
4. Nozzles are sized for R-717 and should not be used with other refrigerants (e.g. R-22 & R-507).
5. Nozzle connections are supplied as pipe stubs unless otherwise specified as a coupling (Cplg).
6. Couplings are ASME B16.11 Class 3000 "full" couplings.
7. Use minimum 8-inch standoff on nameplate bracket.
8. All dimensions are subject to change; please consult factory for certified drawings.
9. Vessels are built in accordance with ASME Boiler & Pressure Vessel Code, Section VIII, Division 1.

Q-NET network technology...

make the connection with QUANTUM!
Preengineering = Lower Cost
Totally distributed units means remote control using single cable
Upgradeable

System integration is what we do

" Q-NET supports open-protocols for your SCADA system
(i.e. Allen Bradley DF1 and Modbus ASCII)

"
"

Q-NET connects for local or remote access

Q-NET can be applied to both new and existing systems

Q-NET means precise control 24 hours a day, seven days a week

Q-NET distributed architecture means faster, easier, economical installations

Q-NET delivers increased operating efficiency and lowers energy costs

Now available on Fricks ACUair hygienic air handlers, PowerFlow condensers,

screw compressors, evaporators, and refrigerant vessels, too.
