CellarPro Ducted Air Handler Split 1 Ton AH8500Sx Outdoor

$7,195.00

CellarPro AH8500Sx Ducted Air Handler Split Outdoor cooling units (1 Ton Nominal) are engineered for wine cellars up to 2500* cubic feet in both commercial and residential wine cellars.

SKU: AH8500Sx-7110 Category:
CellarPro engineered the AH8500Sx-ECX ducted cooling system to provide maximum cooling power and adjustable humidity control for cellars up to 2500 cubic feet with the condensing unit located in an exterior environment. The evaporator and the condensing unit each can be ducted up to 100 equivalent feet (50 equivalent feet per duct.) As a split system, the evaporator can be separated from the condensing unit up to 100 feet, allowing the noise and heat from the condensing unit to be located away from interior living areas. The AH8500Sx-ECX includes independent energy-efficient variable-speed EC fans with a low setting for quieter operation and a high setting for maximum power.


    Overview

    7156 SENSIBLE BTUH @ 55F.
    CellarPro’s AH8500Sx-ECX ducted cooling units (3/4 Ton Nominal) are engineered for wine cellars up to 1,750* cubic feet in both commercial and residential wine cellars. When ducted, this unit uses 10-inch insulated ducting on the cold side, and exterior grills on the hot side.

    This unit maintains optimal cellar temperature and humidity conditions in extreme conditions up to 110F. AH8500Sx units use energy-efficient EC fans and are significantly quieter than comparable units from other brands.

Visit our Learning Center for data tables, performance charts and product comparisons among different brands.

    Our Compressor Heater (P/N 1727) is included to protect the compressor from in temperatures down to 20F. For installation of the condensing unit in environments below 20F down to -20F, our Fan Cycling Switch (P/N 6972) is a required addition, and Electronic Configuration is required.

    *Assuming R19 insulation throughout the cellar, 55F inside the cellar and 85F outside the cellar. Cold-side ducting, glass and/or uninsulated walls, extreme humidity, altitude and other factors may affect the sizing calculation.

    Please note: Our units were not designed for, and our warranty does not cover damage from, marine exposure (within 5 miles of the ocean). In these environments, you will need an applied coating, such as Insitu®, to protect outdoor components against corrosion that is common in coastal regions.

    Our cooling units are designed to be used in properly-constructed wine cellars that are adequately insulated, airtight and sealed with a vapor barrier. In improperly-constructed cellars, the cooling unit will create excess condensation, leading to damage and premature failure of your cooling unit (not covered by warranty).

    BTU/h Rating

    7156

    The BTU/h value shown here is a theoretical number. There are often circumstances under which a cellar design may require a larger unit due to variables not accounted for in the formula. For example, these variables could be building materials (such as glass, stone, concrete, etc.) which do not offer the insulation capacity required to maintain the optimal cellar environment. We recommend purchasing a unit with a larger capacity to compensate for these unaccounted-for variables. An undersized unit can lead to premature failure and will most likely prevent the cellar from reaching your desired temperature.

    Configurations

    • CellarPro AH8500Sx-ECX units are designed to be ducted, with the evaporator near (or inside) the cellar, and the condensing unit in a remote exterior location up to 100 feet away.
    • The evaporator can be ducted up to 100 Equivalent Feet (50 Feet per Duct) with 10-inch ducting .
    • CellarPro’s split configuration allows multiple ducting alternatives, as follows.
    • Collars or grills for EXHAUST (ie Supply) are located at the front (shown at left), top or rear of the evaporator, and are interchangeable to meet your specific requirement.
