UMC/E AIR COOLED CONDENSING UNITS

Range overview
UMC/E = cooling only
UMC/E-HP = heat pump
The Bini Clima air cooled compact condensing units offer cooling capacities from 50-400 kW.
The UMC/E range is designed to be quiet, energy efficient and easy to install. Its at the forefront of market technology and specially developed for split system applications. Modular construction and improved range of options
ensure there is a unit for every application. The UMC/E range is ideally applicable to a variety of environments, from
large retail outlets to high tech environments and from process to comfort applications. All models offer the benefits
and reliability of multiple scroll compressor technology, in an efficient dual refrigeration circuit system providing two
or four stages of cooling for improved energy efficiency during part load conditions. The range includes the UMC/E
& UMC/E-HP models which are reversible for heat pump operation. The complete range is available with low noise,
super low noise, low ambient temperature and many other options, making the UMC/E series the most flexible on
the market.
Integrated Intelligent Controls allows efficient operating which can be integrated into a wide range of BMS systems
by using interface cards or gateways. Combine all this with modulating head pressure control and high efficiency
heat exchangers ensures the lowest possible life cycle costs.

Typical installation

UMC/E AIR COOLED CONDENSING UNITS

Standard features

Housing
The units are designed for outdoor installation. The unit housing is made from galvanized steel protected against
corrosion with an epoxy paint, color RAL 9010.
Upon request, the structure can be reinforced with anodized aluminum profiles, tightly secured to a strong base
frame to allow an easy lifting of the unit with hooks. The distribution of weight is uniform for an easy positioning on
site.
All electric and control devices are fitted into the electric panel fixed on the unit side and provided with a main switch.
Compressors
UMC/E & UMC/E-HP units are equipped with orbiting, rotary Scroll compressors. Thanks to the reduced quantity of
parts in motion and to the absence of suction/delivery valves, these compressors are extremely silent and are fit for
applications with low/average capacity.

Air Exchangers
Highly efficient condensing coils are made of copper tubes and mechanically expanded into aluminum fins.

Fans
Low noise and water proof axial type fans, protected with safety grid are used on the condensing coil side. Fan motors are directly coupled thus reducing vibrations and transmission failures. Motors are IP 54 and class F insulated
and are protected from voltage peaks with magneto-thermic switches installed into the electric panel placed on
machine side.
Unit Controller
Advanced digital controller allows intelligent control of compressors and fan as well as full communication to BMS
systems.

UMC/E AIR COOLED CONDENSING UNITS

Installation considerations - Dimensions

Foundations
No special foundations are required, provided the supporting surface is flat and level, and can withstand the weight
or the unit. Installation of anti-vibration rubber pads is recommended to avoid transmission of vibrations to the building.
Clearances
For an optimal operation of the UMC/E condensing units, it is essential to respect the specified clearance around
the unit to ensure the proper air flow distribution through the condensers and allow an easy maintenance. Reduced
spaces may cause decrease of cooling capacity and loss of performances.
The space around the unit must be accurately respected to avoid air short circuits that may cause condensing
temperature raising.
The UMC/E condensing units must be easily accessible for periodic maintenance. Minimum suggested distance for
service from unit side is 1.000 mm.
If two or more units should be installed on the same site, a distance of 2.600 mm (minimum distance between two
condensing coils) must be respected to prevent recirculation of warm air.
The distance between the units and side walls must not be less than 2.100 mm. If the walls around the unit would
be higher than the unit sides, it s mandatory to respect a minimum distance of 2.600 mm.
