Note 1: All power-speed combinations above are available with the BACnet option; the last 8 characters are replaced by ABAH-AA63. Refer to the Catalog Decoder for more information.
Note 2: All power and speed combinations listed are standard offerings. Aircore EC supports right-sizing and custom name-plating for any power-speed combination within motor limits. To configure, select Aircore MC (AFE) under System Type in the MST.
Important notes
Contact Infinitum prior to designing or proposing these products within other equipment.
I-con V2.100.0.0 or later is required for use with Aircore MC AFE motors. Using an earlier version may cause unintended operation.

Frequently Asked Questions
| Q1. Is Aircore MC suitable for right-sizing or custom name-plating? | Yes. Similar to Aircore EC products, Aircore MC systems support right-sizing and custom name-plating using the MST. |
| Q2. Are the mounting options different for Aircore MC? | No. Like Aircore EC, the Aircore MC offers four peripheral mounting pads and C-face mounting options. Refer to the datasheet and IOM manual for additional details. |
| Q3. Where can I find Aircore MC sales and technical documentation? | Refer to the Documentation and Resources section in this document. |
| Q4. Is an Aircore MC backwards compatible? | Yes. The Aircore MC can be swapped with a compatible Aircore EC, subject to power, speed, current, and voltage requirements. The Aircore MC can also be combined with Aircore EC in a fan wall. |
| Q5. Is a 15 HP version of Aircore MC available? | A 15 HP version of Aircore MC is targeted for market release by end of the year. Contact your Infinitum representative or account manager for details. |
