Bosch RF Series - General Description

General Description
3 General Description
The RF series water-to-air heat pump provides an unmatched
combination of performance, features, and flexibility for both
high-performance new construction applications and
replacement of existing water-to-air heat pumps.
All units are certified by the Air-Conditioning, Heating, and
Refrigeration Ins
titute (AHRI) to AHRI/ANSI/ASHRAE/ISO
standard 13256-1 for water-to-air and brine-to-air heat pumps
at Water Loop Heat Pump, Ground Loop Heat Pump, and Ground
Water Heat Pump application points. All RF Water-to-Air Heat
Pumps conform to UL 60335-2-40 by Intertek-ETL.
RF series units are available in three basic configurations:
Vertical Top-Supp
ly Air (VT), Horizontal End-Supply Air (HZ), and
CounterFlow Bottom-Supply Air (CF). Each of these
configurations are available with either left- or right-hand return
air. HZ models can have the supply air field converted from end
discharge air to straight through with no additional parts
required.
RF units can accommodate a wide range of air temperatures,
however, standard RF models should not be used for 100%
outside air without consulting with Engineering Applications
(EAP). 100% outside air routinely requires higher levels of
dehumidification than is available from equipment designed
for return air applications.
NOTICE
RF units are designed and rated for conditioned space
installation only.
NOTICE
DO NOT install RF units in environments that fall below
freezing or exceed 100°F ambient.
NOTICE
RF cabinets are constructed of heavy-gauge galvanized steel
and will resist most common types of corrosion but avoid
installations in high-salt concentration or highly-corrosive
environments.
On-board safety features will protect the major unit
components from damage.
