Need ultra low profile condenser


Hi
Anyone know where I can get a 6 ton (208/3 phase/server room application) condensing unit that will fit (in a truck trailer belly box) a 21" ceiling height? Perhaps I will have to have someone engineer/spec a "very horizontal" coil? I have plenty of width space. Thanks all

Have you tried a Refrigeration condensing unit? It might be a little
pricey, but still less expensive than some thing special made.

Thanks, I know, that is the problem, any regular production fan condensing unit with a 40 degree coil temp application...in the 72k Btu range is far too tall. I'm considering making my own system using two 3 ton condenser/fan units side by side.

I'm also exploring the feasability of multiple ductless split units...

I was just thinking... if they own the trailer and it is now completely stationary, what about having a platform built on top of, or above the trailer and using a packaged AC unit. I’m guessing you wouldn’t have any need for a heat pump in your area.
