50-2000 Ambulance installation
We're showing various parts of the installation so you can get an idea of what it is about
There are four major parts of the system:
Evaporator- heater
Condenser
Compressor
Controller
Let's start with the evaporator
Shown is a typical squad bench with the seat lifted. The space underneath the seat is where we want to mount the evaporator-heater.

We'll mount the evap to the floor of the bench.
We provide a drain pan to surround the entire evap assembly.
With the evap mounted , we need to create an opening for the air to exit.
Take notice of the hole drilled with a hole saw to the left of the template.
The three speed blower switch is mounted here!.
We' ve cut the opening, mounted the evap, drilled the hole for the switchplate,
You can see the switchplate over the drilled hole(far left photo)

You can see the orange caps on the refrigerant lines, use a hole saw to
create an opening directly below for the electrical lines and refrigerant lines.We provide an air return grille with this system, It should be mounted at the opposite end of the bench
(Next to the curbside door)
Let's do the digital thermostat

Usually goes in the action area
Better to locate it here because the controller will be behind it
in the exterior cabinet
On to the Controller
The controller will typically mount in a streetside cabinet .
This is the best place since the shoreline connector and breaker box(included)will be close by
Before the driver enters the vehicle, they can unplug the shorepower

You can see how the wiring is routed out of the cabinet

Then secured to the floor above the frame rails

The wiring to the curbside framerail.Grey wires for the condenser& blower switch
115 volt wire for the compressor, 115 volt wire for the heater

The condenser and compressor are mounted side by side under the squad bench

A shot of the compressor mounted to the frame
There's not a fan for the compressor, in fact we have mounted the compressor
inside on several installations.
You can also see the charging ports(blue and red caps)

You can see one of the bolt heads to the right of the compressor body
securing the frame bracket to the frame.
Ford F-series frame rail shown.
That's the basic install of the components.Of course there's wiring and hoses.
Vacuum the system,charge with R134a.
It's a custom installation on any vehicle,with the advantages of

Not seeing a roof mounted unit!

No overhead clearance issues

Lower center of gravity

Designed and built for MOBILITY.

Proven reliability.
