A centrifugal blower includes a blower base, multiple blades fastened to the blower base, a hub integrated to a central portion of the blower base, and a top shroud to provide surrounding coverage to the multiple blades. The centrifugal blower is housed within an evaporator. The centrifugal blower may operate at operating speeds that are lower than those of typical or currently known implementations while generating an airflow that meets or even exceeds those of the typical or currently known implementations.

A condenser fan includes a lock hub and multiple blades that are fastened to the hub. Each of the blades includes six planes, each of which having variable parameters including pitch angle, sickle, chord length, and blade curve. For each embodiment of the evaporator fan, the blades are identically configured.

Methods and systems for monitoring belt tension and determining belt lifespan in a TRS are disclosed. An embodiment of a self-tensioner can include a sensor connected to a self-tensioner in a belt driven system and a magnet that passes over the sensor to generate a signal. The sensor detects the signal, and the signal in conjunction with an angle of the magnet is converted into a voltage value. The method can include a controller connected to the self-tensioner, the controller converts the voltage value into a tension value, and stores the tension value among a plurality of premeasured tension values in a memory, where the controller compares the tension value and the plurality of premeasured tension values to determine a belt tension condition of the belt in the belt-driven system.
