Dometic Marine launches Emerald split air conditioning system at SCIBS

by Saltwater PR on 21 May 2010 Dometic Marine, the world leading supplier of marine air conditioning is launching the new Emerald Split Air Conditioning System at the Sanctuary Cove International Boat Show for the first time. Comprising of the Emerald Condenser and the Emerald Evaporator, the new split system has been engineered to use R410A environmentally safe refrigerant. Fully compliant with International green gas standards, the thermodynamic properties of R410A enabled Dometic engineers to increase system efficiency by using fewer amps per capacity.

Submitted for a prestigious 2009 IBEX award for Innovation, the Emerald Condenser Series and Emerald Evaporator Series are based on Dometic's cutting-edge air conditioning technology. In addition, the systems have been designed and refined to maximise performance and durability.

Emerald Condenser Series
The Emerald Condenser Series incorporates an innovative square design for easy installation in tight locations and optimal positioning for any connection configuration. Various mounting options are available to overcome challenging installation requirements.

In addition, the Emerald Condenser features a rust-proof drain pan with two large drain connections for improved condensate removal. The sloped base in the pan provides exceptional drainage even when the boat heaves and rolls, for 85% less standing water. For protection against moisture and contaminants that can destroy the compressor, the system includes a built-in liquid line filter dryer. The Emerald Condenser Series is available in 11 capacities from 6,000 to 72,000 BTU.

Dometic Marine Emerald Evaporator Series
The Emerald Evaporator provides reduced size, noise, and amperage. A quality engineered system, the Emerald Evaporator includes an easy-to-rotate, high-velocity blower, rust-free composite drain pan and enhanced condensate drainage in a compact package. Also significantly quieter, the Emerald Evaporator uses a vibration-isolation mounting system to minimise noise. Fully insulated, the high velocity blowers are also quiet and efficient. The Emerald Evaporator Series is available in capacities of 4,000, 6,000, 8,000, 10,000, 12,000, and 16,000 BTU.

The Emerald split system provides both heating and cooling and offers many options for combining multiple condensers and evaporators in a staged multi-zone system. Each condensing unit has its own control that manages the temperature of the area independently of other units.
