Description
Flagship Marine FM16R (115V Variant) Self-Contained Marine Air Handler
Featuring a dedicated 16,000 BTU/h cooling capacity, the Flagship Marine FM16R (115V Variant) engineering configuration optimizes tropical climates inside spacious main salons up to 800 cu.ft. The heavy-duty self-contained system fits compact 14.0×16.0x13.5-inch spaces while driving a powerful 520 CFM evaporator airflow through a standard 6-inch duct connection. This cool-only commercial-grade design guarantees absolute thermal regulation without unnecessary internal heating loops, functioning as an exceptional alternative to an automated low amp marine air handler layout.
Technology built into the electrical control board ensures seamless management over a single-phase 115V power supply grid operating at 60Hz. The internal architecture monitors a continuous 12.2A full load cooling amperage and accounts for a 56A locked rotor startup spike, demanding a 30A circuit breaker during standard load conditions. Safe operations under marine environments are secured by a 5/8-inch seawater plumbing pipe connection requiring an optimal water pump delivery rate of 4.16 GPM through a robust cupronickel condenser coil and a stainless steel frame.
Core Engineering and Performance Elements of Flagship Marine FM16R (115V Variant):
- High efficiency 16,000 BTU dedicated cooling capacity architecture
- Compact 14.0-inch physical footprint fits restricted locker spaces
- Premium grade cupronickel condenser loop prevents seawater corrosion
- Marine grade stainless steel base frame eliminates bilge rust
- Efficient 12.2A full load cooling current draw profile
- Hermetic rotary compressor engineering dampens localized vibration sound
- Standard 5/8-inch seawater inlet and outlet plumbing connections
- High output internal blower drives 520 CFM ventilation air
- Lightweight 65 lbs chassis ensures quick self contained installation
- Pre charged eco friendly R-410A system refrigerant tracking
Advanced Thermal Exchange Performance
Cupronickel condenser coils provide maximum thermal transfer across small-craft saltwater loops by countering scaling build-up. The specialized mechanical engineering balances automated refrigerant pressures across an optimized cooling surface, sustaining peak operating performance. This durable combination eliminates unexpected climate drop-offs under punishing high-salinity oceanic operational cycles, acting as a premium corrosion resistant boat AC platform.
Two Year Factory Warranty Protection
A comprehensive 5-year limited factory warranty protects your entire marine air conditioner investment against unexpected mechanical component failures. Factory certified technicians authorize immediate structural coverage for verified electrical and mechanical parts defects from the initial retail transaction date. Onboard operators receive absolute long term security, minimizing operational downtime while maintaining constant vessel comfort.
Vessel Layout and Application Fit
Vessels measuring 30-38ft achieve ideal climate stability using this self-contained system. The dense 16,000 BTU/h capacity specifically targets open-air environments like large main salon quarters or multi-cabin luxury yacht configurations. Proper installation ensures optimized structural airflow, maximizing onboard living space while reducing internal generator strain.

Flagship FM16R 115V AC FAQ
What voltage rating does this system use?
Flagship FM16R utilizes a standard 115V electrical feed. This configuration allows native American domestic boaters to hook up their air conditioner system straight into traditional dockside shore boxes or portable backup gas generators without deploying expensive or heavy step-down marine transformers.
What are the physical dimensions of FM16R?
Flagship FM16R features a footprint of 16.5x16.5x14 inches. These compact structural lines give marine technicians ample flexibility to mount the compressor base deep inside empty hanging wardrobes or under seating benches, offering a highly practical spatial option for space-limited modern sailboat hulls.
When is Flagship FM16R best applied?
Flagship FM16R is best applied in tropical regions lacking freezing weather. It serves beautifully as a dedicated primary cooling unit for coastal express cruisers from thirty-two to forty feet, managing cabin relative humidity during intense mid-day heatwaves while drawing a highly reliable current profile on standard circuits.
