    Looks like a water spice heat pump of some kind.
    What exactly do you want to know about it?

    I bought two units but I have no idea what they are. I used to do air conditioning 15 years ago but it's all just residential. It's actually two pieces The Big Unit then a separate condensing unit about 2 ft by 6 ft by about 4 in. Big inch and a half copper water lines go between them.

    How the hell did I come up with water spice?
    Stupid autocorrect.
    Seems like Trane owns the market on water source stuff around here. The model looked familiar.

    Not to sound blunt but why did you buy them if you don’t know what they are?
    Do you have a cooling tower and water loop?
    Do you have 3 phase 480V service in your building?

    I bought them at a surplus auction for $50 each. I didn't want to cut them up and scrap them if they're actually worth some money in reply to your question

    They may be.
    But there’s not a very big market for used commercial equipment.
    Due to their ratings you have to have a very specific building for them to work.
    We have no idea what kind of shape or mechanical function these units have.

    Okay these units are brand new 2 and a half years old sitting on pallets in original unused condition never hooked up. The date code says four of 17. It actually comes with the boxes with the electrical actuators as well between the two units. There's main large unit and then in the other crate is the additional water cooling type evaporator.. it's about 6 ft long 18 inches tall and 4 inch thick .

    Probably not much of a market. Commercial/industrial equipment with no warranty.

    Okay thanks for the input. I've got some people here local Trane looking into it. I find it hard to believe with the unit that probably wholesale cost 6 to $8,000 that someone can't use it with no warranty

    Because it could be 2 or 3X that amount to install it.

    You know all I wanted to know is what they were and what they were used for. You've not give me any information tonnage or anything. Thanks for all your replies but you basically didn't tell me a thing all you did was Yammer about warranties and other stuff. I'm out of this talk thing because I got no information. I thought this site might be helpful but it wasn't at all.

    Rundawg posted extensive information about those units. Did you ignore the link he posted? 120=10 tons.
    Your getting mad at us because you purchased units that you didn’t even know what they were and now you don’t know what to do with them. And your ignoring information to answer your question.
