Indirect Fired Gas Heaters in Carrier’s Aero® 39M Air Handlers - 1

Indirect Fired Gas Heaters Indirect fired gas heaters are available in Carrier’s 39M air handler in sizes 06-110 ranging in capacities from 100 to 6,000 MBH with at least 3 heating input options per unit size.* With a minimum standard 10:1 turndown ratio, the 39M gas heaters can match the heat output to a specific load maintaining tight temperature control while minimizing operating costs. Why use a gas heat system? Gas heaters provide a cost effective heating solution from both an initial capital cost as well as a life cycle ownership cost. Unlike hot water or steam heating systems, a gas heat system, by not requiring additional equipment such as boilers and pumps, can avoid additional energy consumption from the heating and conveyance of the fluid or steam. Why use an indirect gas fired system? An indirect gas fired system provides peace of mind as the products of combustion do not come in contact with the re-circulated air. In an indirect fired system, the gas burner is fired into a radiant tube type heat exchanger which is separated from the supply air stream. This system is recommended for all applications as it provides heat without contamination from the by-products of combustion. In contrast, a direct gas fired system will introduce the products of combustion and additional moisture directly into the supply air stream. Direct fired systems are restricted to applications such as large warehouses, manufacturing plants, and other types of commercial/industrial facilities and are not recommended for office buildings, schools or densely populated spaces. Figure 1, above, shows a typical temperature profile of a gas heating system with a high turndown ratio. This high ratio provides the tight control needed to provide an accurate and consistent leaving air temperature off of the gas heater. In comparison, Figure 2 shows a temperature profile of a gas heating system with a low turndown ratio and, as can be seen, poor leaving air temperature control exists.
