Nolan Kienitz Posted March 10, 2011 Report Share Posted March 10, 2011 Anyone have the magical decoder ring (err file) for the new Carrier systems? All the data sheets I have don't address the BTUs/tonnage and other such numbers in the new 2010 systems. I've attached a couple data plate images from two Carrier systems at today's HI.

In-Depth Posted March 10, 2011 Report Share Posted March 10, 2011 Looks like 2010 2.5t units to me going by their system in the past. Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chad Fabry Posted March 10, 2011 Report Share Posted March 10, 2011 Hi Nolan, The first #'s in the model # are almost always btu's/1000 - in this case I think the Btu's are the model # 24.... x1000= 24,000. At 12,000 btu's to the ton, that would equal a two ton unit. Date of manufacture is on the tag. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nolan Kienitz Posted March 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2011 Hi Nolan, The first #'s in the model # are almost always btu's/1000 - in this case I think the Btu's are the model # 24.... x1000= 24,000. At 12,000 btu's to the ton, that would equal a two ton unit. Date of manufacture is on the tag. Problem there is that there are two different size units and the 24 exists as part of the model number on both units. The divisible by 12 just isn't sticking its head out on these 2010 model units.

AHI in AR Posted March 10, 2011 Report Share Posted March 10, 2011 Looking at the electrical needs would indicate two different tonnage units also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc Posted March 10, 2011 Report Share Posted March 10, 2011 Carrier has always been the black sheep. Model numbers don't tell the tonnage, never did. Call Carrier...is all I know what to do. Marc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc Posted March 10, 2011 Report Share Posted March 10, 2011 On the other hand, chk this out. 2.5 ton It for a ABB, not an ABC but then ABC doesn't yield an answer. Marc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nolan Kienitz Posted March 11, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2011 A close HI friend of mine down in Austin, TX sent me this document that he got at an HVAC class in the past year or so from a Carrier representative. Has some good clues. Download Attachment: Carrier Model Numbers.pdf 486.8 KB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
