Refrigerant Modules (RCM-I)

The RCM-I cooling coil comes as a module and must be 

installed in the horizontal position on the return air side of the 

fan coil. RCM-I modules come with two L mounting brackets, 

two access ports, carry-over screen and additional components 

for air sealing.

RCM-I Installation

Access Ports

When refrigerant lines are connected to the RCM-I coil, high 

and low side access ports must be connected as well. (Fig. 01 - 

reference 2 & 6) With the use of a tee and reducer this process is 

simplified.  The access ports are required for system startup and 

for future trouble shooting or service. When reading  refrigerant 

pressures/temperatures, always read them at the evaporator 

access ports. 

RCM-I modules can be used on any R-410A condenser if 

R-410A refrigerant components are used. All Energy Saving 

Products R-Series modules come standard with R-410A 

refrigerant components. 

This module is for use with HVS-36 and HVS-60 Inverter 

Heat Pump Condensing Units.  It does not come with thermal 

expansion valve, as there are internal EXVs inside the Heat 

Pump.  When installing the RCM-I Modules, 

DO NOT INSTALL 

WITH TXVs.

The module will come with access ports that will need to 

be installed to read refrigerant pressures/temperatures at the 

Evaporator (RCM-I). Fig. 01 shows approximate installation 

locations for these components.

RCM-I  Modules  were  designed  to  be  used  with  the  HVS-

36 and HVS-60 Heat Pumps but can be used on any R-410A 

Condensing Unit, as long as a TXV is installed as well.  All Energy 

Saving Products cooling modules come standard with R-410A 

refrigerant components.

Mounting Brackets

Mounting the cooling coil to the fan coil can be done with 

the L brackets supplied (Fig. 02), ensure that no screws puncture 

the drain pan or coil. Page 8 has the dimensions of the cooling 

modules.

Note:  7 & 8 coil temperature ports are explained in Module HVS - Heat Pump Manual
