THE READY POWER CO.
NATURAL GAS PACKAGED AIR CONDITIONERS
DETROIT 14, MICHIGAN
GENERAL DESCRIPTION--ReadyPower Air Conditioning Units combine modem, Freon compressors with medium-speed industrial-type gas en gines. These packaged gas air condition ing units are performance-tested under actual operating conditions to insure long, trouble-free, service. These units operate on clean natural gas. Engine carbon deposits are nearly non existent. These natural gas-carbureted engines last 3 to 5 times longer than similar engines operated on gasoline.
OUTSTANDING ECONOMY--Less than 13 cu ft of low-cost natural gas is required per ton hour. Fuel consumption is in direct proportion to the actual load throughout over 80 percent of the capac ity range. A power take-off pulley is provided oo the engine shaft to providfor belt-driven tower pumps. The econ omy combination of low fuel require ment, engine-powered tower circulation, nnti "matched to the load" fuel con sumption makes Ready-Power out standing in net refrigeration costs.
AUTOMATIC
OPERATION--All
Ready-Power Units are available with
either Thermostat Start or Push-button
Start Controls. All models are equipped
with a-c electric starting motors and
automatic LOAD-MATCH capacity con
trols.
Thermostat Start Units start and stop
automatically in response to the setting
of your thermostat. Push-button start
units must be started and stopped
manually.
AUTOMATIC CAPACITY CON TROL--Automatic Capacity Control is achieved by varying the operating speed and by unloading compressor cylinders
after the unit has dropped to the'minimum operating speed. This means that
the pumping rate of the compressor is exactly matched with the cooling load. In this manner, maximum operating
economy is realised. This "LOADMATCH" capacity control system permits almost continuous com pressor operation at a constant evapora tor coil temperature, the result of which
is extremely close control of humidity and temperature without the need for
large re-beat systems.
PHYSICAL DATA ENGINE COMPRESSOR PACKAGED UNITS
COMPRESSORS--Modern precision
balanced Freon 12 and 22 compressors assure a tniT^Tmim of vibration. The Ready-Power control system automat ically unloads compressor and permits
start-up at idle speed with all cylinders unloaded. Approximately 2 to 3 minutes are required to fully load the compressor
after start-up. This greatly decreases
start-up impact loading on valves, bear ings, etc., and substantially increases compressor life over similar equipment
operating at synchronous constant speeds of 1750 rpm or higher.
COMPACT AND READY TO RUN--
Complete "packaging" of auxiliary con
trols and accessory items with the direct driven compressor unit permits quick, easy installation in a space measuring only 3 ft X 7 ft.
MATCHED WATER CHILLERS--
Ready-Power offers completely balanced and tested refrigerant systems for water-
chilling applications. Matched chillercondenser units are designed to take full advantage of the variable capacity feature of the engine compressor units. The chiller and condenser are mounted
on a heavy structural steel frame as sembly, completely piped and wired. A
control cabinet houses the necessary
related solenoids relays and switches' and other controls.
LONG SERVICE LIFE--Powered by medium-speed industrial engines, these
systems have achieved an outstanding reputation for dependability and long
service. The compressors represent the latest developments in design, engineer
ing, and manufacture, and are longwearing and smooth-running. Units are
equipped with automatic engine oil level controls and closed engine water cooling
circuit.
