AERCO Modulex EXT MLX 600 in practice

AERCO's Modulex EXT TDS prints the MLX EXT 600 at 46 MBH minimum input and 642 MBH maximum input with a 564,000–609,000 BTU/hr output range (Max Output varies with supply and return water temperatures). The ratings table lists an 87%–99% efficiency range; the TDS text states efficiency up to 98.6% can be achieved at the lowest firing rate.

The specifications table lists 14:1 turndown across 4 independent thermal modules, 2" NPT gas and 2 1/2" NPT water connections, 3.6 FLA at 120 V, a 4" air intake / 6" exhaust vent and air inlet, a 92 psi maximum allowed working pressure and 50°–180°F supply temperature control (35°F minimum inlet water). Dimensions are 40.6" × 30.3" × 45.3" with a 568 lb wet weight and 650 lb shipping weight.

The Modulex EXT is AERCO's outdoor-ready condensing line with a coated enclosure standard, sealed or room-air combustion, the Ufly touchscreen controller, Modbus integration and 10.5:1 to 39:1 operating range depending on the unit.
