Trane 5MXCA003AC6HCA Multi-position Cased Evaporator Coil 1.5 to 3 Ton R-454B 14.5 Inch Cabinet

Product Description

The Trane 5MXCA003AC6HCA is a single-stage, multi-position cased evaporator coil designed for residential split-system cooling and heat pump applications using R-454B refrigerant. Part of the 5MXC-Series, this aluminum-construction coil handles a capacity range of 1.5 to 3 tons (18,000 to 36,000 BTU/h) and installs in upflow, downflow, or horizontal orientations. A factory-integrated flow control check valve is included to support system efficiency. The coil ships in a 14.5-inch-wide cabinet measuring 20 inches high by 21 inches deep. Licensed HVAC technicians install and commission this coil as part of a split-system or heat pump installation.

The 5MXCA003AC6HCA is suited for standard-efficiency residential split-system cooling and heat pump configurations rated from 1.5 to 3 tons. Its multi-position design makes it adaptable to a range of air handler and furnace configurations, including upflow and horizontal installations common in attics, closets, and utility rooms. The coil is AHRI-certified (AHRI number 216031080) and is rated for use with R-454B refrigerant, aligning with current low-GWP refrigerant requirements for new residential HVAC equipment.
