Mermaid M12 – Cool & Reverse Cycle Marine A/C Unit 12,000 BTU’s 110V

Description

Mermaid Marine Air M12 Self-Contained Marine Air Handler

Featuring a high-efficiency design, the Mermaid Marine Air M12 provides a 12,000 BTU/h cooling capacity and 14,000 BTU/h reverse cycle heating capacity to stabilize cruiser configurations up to 500 cu.ft. Utilizing compact 11.5×16.0x12.0-inch physical dimensions, this self-contained package vents an optimized 400 CFM evaporator airflow rate directly through a standard 6-inch duct discharge connection diameter. This popular refit assembly guarantees rapid climate adjustments, acting as a highly dependable alternative to an unmonitored low amp marine air handler layout in cramped engine compartments.

Technology built into the single-phase 110V 60Hz control network manages a 9.5A cooling draw alongside an 11.2A heating draw and a 40A locked rotor startup surge. The 56 lbs chassis incorporates an premium hermetic rotary compressor, a cupronickel condenser loop, and a stainless steel drain pan to fully stop open ocean oxidation. Seawater cooling circuits require a continuous 5.0 GPM pump delivery rate through 5/8-inch inlet and outlet links, completing a robust package equipped with a standard 1/2-inch condensate drain line port.

Core Engineering and Performance Elements of Mermaid Marine Air M12:

• High efficiency 12,000 BTU cooling and 14,000 BTU reverse heating
• Compact 11.5-inch height profile fits narrow stateroom storage lockers
• Premium cupronickel condenser loop prevents severe open ocean corrosion
• Heavy duty stainless steel base pan eliminates bilge rust leaks
• Efficient 9.5A full load cooling current draw performance profile
• Hermetic rotary compressor mechanics dampen operational sound emissions effectively
• Standard 5/8-inch seawater inlet and outlet plumbing pipe size
• High output internal blower drives 400 CFM ventilation air
• Lightweight 56 lbs chassis simplifies self contained installation layout
• Pre charged eco friendly R-410A system refrigerant tracking loop

Advanced Thermal Exchange Performance

Cupronickel condenser loops provide maximum thermal transfer across all high-temperature raw seawater lines by preventing scale accumulation. The robust structural configuration balances automated refrigerant pressures across an optimized evaporator array, sustaining peak operating performance. This durable combination eliminates unexpected climate drop-offs under punishing high-salinity oceanic operational cycles, serving as a premier corrosion resistant boat AC platform.

Two Year Factory Warranty Protection

A comprehensive 5-year 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 25-33ft achieve ideal climate stability using this compact self-contained climate control configuration. The physical layout is custom-tailored for installation under V-berths, settees, or narrow storage compartments inside small express cruisers requiring a 3.5 kW minimum generator. Precise sizing avoids short-cycling, delivering efficient continuous dehumidification without overwhelming the restricted electrical grid capacities.
