CRUISAIR RX Series Condenser 230V – Seawater-Cooled, With Reverse-Cycle Heating
RX condensing units are seawater-cooled, reverse-cycle heat pumps for cooling and heating in marine applications. RX type units are available in capacities from 10,000 to 48,000 BTU/hr.
Dometic/Cruisair RX condensing units can be installed with up to two Dometic/Cruisair evaporating units, where the total capacity of the evaporators is equal to RX type unit capacity. In cooling mode, full performance is available in seawater up to 90°F (32°C). In reverse-cycle heat mode, they will perform in seawater temperatures as low as 40°F (4.4°C).
RX type units have a one-piece chassis/pan with a smaller footprint and two 1/2 in. (13 mm) drain connections. Hold-down brackets secure all four corners and allow for easier installation and removal. The one-piece electrical box with 3 ft. (0.9 m) harness can be remotely mounted. Additional service ports provide convenient charging and servicing.
