Heat Controller MCR030AHC30C0PS Heat Pump 2.5 Ton

Product Description

The HEAT CONTROLLER MCR030AHC30C0PS is a 2.5-ton horizontal water source heat pump designed for three-phase commercial and residential applications operating at 208/230 volts. It uses R-454B refrigerant and delivers a ground water cooling capacity of 32,400 BTU/h at 59 degrees F entering water temperature (EWT) and a heating capacity of 29,200 BTU/h at 50 degrees F EWT. A ground water coefficient of performance (COP) of 4.1 and an EER of 21 both exceed ASHRAE 90.1 efficiency standards. The unit features a coaxial heat exchanger and a built-in performance monitoring system that signals potential issues before they become failures. Licensed HVAC technicians install this unit in commercial light construction and retrofit scenarios where horizontal clearance is available but vertical space is limited.

The MCR030AHC30C0PS is suited for water loop and ground water hydronic heat pump systems in commercial buildings, hotels, multi-family residential, and similar applications where centralized loop water is available. In water loop mode, the unit delivers 28,800 BTU/h of cooling at 86 degrees F EWT and 35,400 BTU/h of heating at 68 degrees F EWT, with a water loop COP of 4.6 and a water loop EER of 13.7. The right-return air configuration and compact horizontal profile make this unit practical for above-ceiling, mechanical closet, or in-wall chase installations where space is constrained. It is an appropriate choice for new construction and retrofit projects alike.

Key Features

• 2.5-ton nominal capacity in a compact horizontal configuration ideal for tight or retrofit spaces
• Ground water EER of 21 and COP of 4.1 exceed ASHRAE 90.1 efficiency requirements
• R-454B refrigerant with extended-range refrigerant circuit for broader operating conditions
• Coaxial heat exchanger for reliable water-to-refrigerant heat transfer
• Integrated performance monitoring system alerts technicians to potential faults early
• Three-phase 208/230V power supply suits commercial electrical infrastructure
• Right return air configuration supports common horizontal duct layouts

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM water source heat pump for horizontal hydronic loop systems requiring a 2.5-ton three-phase unit at 208/230 volts using R-454B refrigerant.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed HVAC technician familiar with hydronic heat pump systems and local mechanical codes. Shut off loop water flow and de-energize all electrical circuits before servicing or connecting the unit. Refrigerant handling requires EPA Section 608 certification due to the use of R-454B. Verify that loop water quality, flow rate, and entering water temperature are within the manufacturer-specified operating range before startup.
