APPLICATIONS Whether you are designing a new structure or replacing the packaged terminal air conditioning units in an existing building, Carrier will meet your needs. • Hotels and motels • Nursing homes and assisted living care centers • Offices • Apartments • Single-family dwellings • Home conversions and residential add-ons NEW CONSTRUCTION The Carrier 52S unit is designed to meet the needs of the architect, engineer, and contractor.
PRODUCT OVERVIEW This section summarizes product features covered in detail in later sections: Polymer Sleeve — Designed for rugged duty, acoustic absorption, and attractive appearance for years to come. Rotary Compressors — Provide quiet, reliable operation. Copper Tube Fin Coils — Enhanced coils provide durability, high performance, and ease of operation. Fresh Air Control Arm — Allows outdoor air into room through foam filter for improved air quality.
PRODUCT FEATURES AND BENEFITS The 52S model is a single-package, through-the-wall unit for heating and cooling hotel rooms, offices, apartments, condominiums, and residential additions.
NO-RUST WEATHER LAST™ WALL SLEEVE AND FRONT PANEL The indoor front panel and wall sleeve use nonmetallic compounds that never rust or corrode, do not support combustion, and do not give off toxic fumes. The weather-resistant feature exceeds requirements of Underwriters’ Laboratories and resists damage caused by impact and scratching. The Weather Last feature also insulates and has up to 10 times the acoustic absorption of metal cabinets.
PRODUCT FEATURES AND BENEFITS (cont) DURABLE CONTROL PANEL DOOR AND EASY-TO-USE CONTROLS The reinforced control door conceals controls and features an attractive surface that will not chip. The hinge and door are extruded as one piece and provide protection from demanding transient use. The door is sloped to discourage use as a shelf. Easily accessible from the room side, the control buttons and thermostat are clearly marked and simple to use.
EASY ACCESS TO CHASSIS Access to the chassis simply requires removing four screws and then sliding the chassis out of the sleeve for service. Once the power is turned off, connectors can be separated on hard-wire units, or the power cord can be disconnected on cord-connected units. Easy Service Access HIDDEN CONTROLS The factory-wired control box houses all control components and is quickly accessible without removing the chassis from the wall sleeve.
PRODUCT FEATURES AND BENEFITS (cont) ENHANCED COPPER TUBING Enhanced copper tubing is more efficient and durable and can be repaired in the field, if required. Because copper is a very stable metal, it is durable and resists corrosion.
HEAT PUMPS PAY THEIR OWN WAY Heat pump models are available at a nominal additional cost. In many locales, the payback is realized in just a few months. Cost and payback details are provided on the next page. How The Heat Pump Works In Hot Weather: In Cool Weather: In Sub-Freezing Weather: Carrier’s Series 52S series units provide indoor comfort in the same manner as conventional air conditioners, removing heat and humidity from indoor air. The heat and humidity is released to the outdoors.
PRODUCT FEATURES AND BENEFITS (cont) HEAT PUMP ENERGY SAVINGS Heat pumps save more on operating costs during the heating cycle than heat/cool models. The table below shows that the higher initial cost of purchasing a heat pump is quickly made up in lower operating costs. Use the map to identify the climate zone’s designated number. Reading down the left-hand column of the table, select the cost/kWh rate in this zone that most closely approximates your local rate.

Standard 52S Unit PRODUCT CATALOG NUMBER Cooling-only units are not available with RC (wall thermostat control) option.
ORDERING DATA (cont) FACTORY-INSTALLED OPTIONS Wall Thermostat Control (RC) Carrier’s wall thermostat control option includes: • a standard chassis with front panel • factory-installed low voltage controls for remote thermostat operation A wall thermostat must be ordered separately. NOTE: A heat/cool or heat pump thermostat is available for each application. Be sure to connect reversing valve wiring to the B connection of the thermostat for heat pump applications.
FIELD-INSTALLED ACCESSORIES Weather Last™ Wall Sleeve Part No.: WALL-SLEEVE-1PK Part No.: WALL-SLEEVE-9PK It is recommended that a Carrier sleeve be used with a Carrier chassis. However, an accessory Retrofit Kit may be ordered when fitting a new 52S unit into an existing sleeve. See Accessory Retrofit Kit for GE Sleeve on page 19 and Amana/Trane Sleeve on page 20. The Carrier accessory wall sleeve is made from a molded polymer that is designed for strength and durability.
ORDERING DATA (cont) Aluminum Architectural Outdoor Grilles (Louvered) Part No.: Part No.: Part No.: Part No.: Part No.: GRILLE-ALU-WHITE GRILLE-ALU-BRONZ GRILLE-ALU-BROWN GRILLE-ALU-BEIGE GRILLE-ALU-ALPINE (color matches Carrier wall sleeve) Part No.: GRILLE-ALU-LTGREY Part No.: GRILLE-ALU-CLEAR This premium line of decorative outdoor grilles will enhance the appearance of any building.
Outdoor Grille Selection Carrier recommends only the use of Carrier-supplied grilles for use on the 52S series units. However, the architectural designs of a building may dictate the use of special or oversized grilles and/or louvers. Special louvers or any special architectural treatment of the building façade that may restrict free circulation of condenser airflow should be referred to Carrier Corporation for evaluation and approval.
ORDERING DATA (cont) 265-V Cord-Connection Kit Part No.: PLUG-265V-15AMP Part No.: PLUG-265V-20AMP Part No.: PLUG-265V-30AMP This 265-volt cord connection kit is an alternative to a 265-volt permanent hard-wire connection. The kit contains an 18-inch cord (UL 484 Requirement) and a unit-mounted plug connection. This field-installed accessory connects easily to the right side of the unit and plugs into a receptacle in a subbase.
Lateral Duct Kit Part No.: LAT-DUCT-PLENUM (Adapter Plenum) Part No.: EXTENSION-DUCT (Extension) The accessory lateral duct kit allows one unit to heat or cool two rooms. The kit provides substantial savings for apartments, hotel suites, and office suites by eliminating the need for separate units for every room. The amount of air that can be diverted to an adjoining room is adjustable from 10 to 40 percent. The lateral duct kit consists of two separate packages, the plenum and the extension duct.
ORDERING DATA (cont) Programmable Thermostat Part No.: TSTATCCPAC01-B (for heat/cool models) Part No.: TSTATCCPHP01-B (for heat pump models) This microcomputer-controlled, programmable wall thermostat has enhanced features that provide automatic changeover control for both heat pumps and heating/ cooling units. It is used only on wall thermostat control (RC) models. NOTE: Be sure to connect reversing valve wiring to the B connection of the thermostat for heat pump applications.
Accessory Retrofit Kit for GE Sleeve Part No.: GE-RETROFIT-KIT This kit contains the items that allow owners to install a 52S chassis into a plastic or metal GE sleeve so that there is no air leakage or damage to 52S unit components. The Retrofit Kit is an accessory and must be ordered separately from the factory. To retrofit to a plastic GE sleeve, it is important to remove the rear bottom seal from the sleeve.
ORDERING DATA (cont) Accessory Retrofit Kit For Amana/Trane Sleeve IMPORTANT: Be sure that the foam baffles make a good seal between the grille and outdoor coil tube sheets. Improper installation of the foam baffles or neglecting to install them can result in condenser (outdoor) air recirculation. This will degrade the unit’s performance and shorten product life. Do not ignore this step. Carrier does not assume responsibility for costs or damages resulting from misapplication of foam baffles. Part No.
DIMENSION DRAWINGS AND INSTALLATION DATA — NEW CONSTRUCTION TYPICAL WALL INSTALLATION Proper building practices must be used when constructing a wall opening to support a PTAC wall sleeve and chassis. If practices are unknown, consult your local architect or building contractor. Installed wall sleeve must be level from side to side and front to back. 2. Wall thermostat control models (52S series ‘‘RC’’ units) use low voltage connections (24 volt) qualified with a manual changeover thermostat. NOTES: 1.
