B6BV Series Air Handler
13/14 SEER Residential System | 18,000 - 60,000 Btuh (Heat Pump & Air Conditioner)
Product Overview
The B6BV series of air handlers, when combined with Nortek Global HVAC's heat pump or air conditioner, offer a full line of quality, split system heating and cooling equipment.
Features and Benefits
- Durable, Attractive Cabinet: Designed using galvanized steel with a polyester urethane finish that endures 950 hours of salt spray per ASTM Std. B117. The plastic drain pan is corrosion-resistant.
- Multi-Speed: Provides flexibility of installation.
- Ease-of-Service: Features plug-in wire connections and a built-in filter rack for easy servicing.
- Circuit Board: Incorporates a blower time delay relay, low voltage terminal strip, and heat-strip sequencing.
- Air Handler Control Board: Manages time-sequencing of heat stages with field-selectable sequence timing.
- Breaker Accessibility: Breaker is accessible from the front of the unit when a heater is applied.
- No Fasteners on Sides or Back: Smooth surfaces facilitate ease of installation.
- Cabinet Insulation: 1" insulation with an R-value of 4.2 contributes to quiet operation and prevents cabinet sweating in demanding applications.
- Designed to meet the requirements 610.2.A.2: Meets Florida building code requirements for air leakage.

NOTES:
- Airflow is shown in cfm, +/- 5%.
- All airflows are measured without filter and with dry coil. For filter velocity of 300 ft./min. subtract .08" external static pressure. For wet coil, subtract .1" external static pressure.
- See unit nameplate or installation instructions for maximum recommended external static pressure.
