The MPS® Series works with any standard 24-volt system including split geothermal, heat pump, and conventional furnace and air conditioner. This makes the MPS® series perfect for both new construction and retrofit applications.
While the MPS® Series only works with single-stage equipment, it offers the consumer the most economical zoning option. This makes it perfect for those who aren’t sure zoning is worth the investment and don’t plan to upgrade their system in the near future.
The MPS® Series is also heat pump compatible. The emergency heat mode can be initiated either with the “Emergency Heat” switch or with a remote outdoor thermostat. The thermostat then connects with the remote ODT terminals in the panel allowing for a balance point to be set in heat pump applications.
The MPS® Series includes a built-in compressor lockout with an anti-short cycling feature. This allows refrigerant pressure to balance before restarting which reduces potential compressor damage.
While the Arzel® Zoning MPS® Series is only for use on single-stage equipment, it does not offer leaving air temperature protection. If the customer upgrades to two-stage equipment the MPS® panel cannot be used and a new panel, like the HeatPumPro®, would have to be installed. Consider using the HeatPumPro® if there is any chance the customer may upgrade equipment in the future.
Yes, all Arzel® Zoning panels are heat pump and dual fuel compatible, but heat pump stats must be used in all zones.
The MPS® Series is available in 2 or 3 zones only.
