Product Description
The Elite ™ Environmental Control Unit
is a microporcessor-based controller designed for
the precise monitoring of marine air conditioning
systems, and is now available in retrofit kits for
both direct expansion and chilled waterapplications.
The Elite Retrofit Kit is used for direct expansion
(DX) A/C units, while the AH-Elite Retrofit Kit
is used for chilled water (CW) air handlers.
All kits utilize the new Passport® I/O circuit
board and either DX or CW software. The control operates
at 115 or 230 volts, each operable as 50 or 60 cycles.
Elite Retrofit Kits have everything necessary
to upgrade existing direct expansion systems. Kits
are avaiable to replace the MCP 3-knob, Passport II,
ECU and ECU-MAxx controls. Specify either self-contained(SC)
or split Centrail System (CS) when ordering.
Each kit contains the Elite display, a Vimar®
Black Poly Rondo bezel, the Passport I/O circuit board
mounted in a electrical box, alternate air sensor
and display cables, wiring harness, operation manual,
quick reference card and mounting plate. Specify either
a horizontal or vertical mounting plate when replacing
an ECU or a 3-knob mechanical control (see illustration).
The AH-Elite Retrofit Kit is used to replace
an existing AH-Passport digital display. This kit
includes the Elite display, a Vimar Black Poly Rondo
bezel, the AH-Passport I/O circuit board mounted in
an electrical box, operation manual, quick reference
card and mounting plate.
The entire assembly is grounded and protected against
static interferance and RF noise. The circuit board
is conformally coated to provide component and board
protection. Non-volatile memory stores all user-selectable
parameters indefinitely during operation or any power
failure situation.
The Elite Environmaental Control meets or exceeds
applicable ABYC, U.S. Coast Guard Regulations and
CE Directives. Please see the Elite specifications
sheet L-2237 for more details.
