Bosch biva-60rxb-m15x Air Handler 15 SEER2 5 Ton

Product Description

The BOSCH biva-60rxb-m15x is a multi-position air handler from the BIVA series, designed for residential and light-commercial heat pump systems using R454B refrigerant. Rated at 5 tons of capacity with up to 15.2 SEER2 and up to 8.5 HSPF2, this unit delivers high-efficiency performance in a fully insulated cabinet. It ships with a factory-installed TXV metering device and a factory-installed A2L refrigerant sensor, which is required for safe operation with R454B. A PSC blower motor with three selectable speeds handles airflow. Licensed HVAC technicians certified to handle A2L refrigerants are the intended installers for this equipment.

This air handler is built for flexibility across new installations and replacements. It supports upflow and horizontal-right orientations from the factory, and is field-convertible to horizontal-left or downflow. Multiple electrical entry locations simplify rough-in. The unit is compatible with most standard 24 VAC heat pump thermostats, reducing the need for additional control accessories. Supplemental or emergency electric heat is supported through accessory kits available in 5, 7.5, 10, 15, and 20 kW ratings. The integrated filter rack with tool-less door access and slide-out blower and coil assembly are designed to keep service calls efficient.
