Economizer Hood Assembly — The economizer hood is
shipped in a package secured to the outside of the unit. The
hood assemblies must be field-assembled. The 50A4,A5 units
are side supply and side return. The return duct limits access to
economizer filters from below.
The 50A2,A3,A4,A5020-050 units have two hoods on ev-
ery unit. The 50A2,A3,A4,A5060 units have 3 hoods on every
unit.
NOTE: Before assembly of the economizer hood, check along
the outer edges of the economizer assembly for any seal strip 48-1102f
protruding past the flanges. Trim the excess seal strip so that it
is flush with the economizer assembly flanges. Fig. 20 — Adding Seal Strip to Top of Hood Sides
