FT5B Variable Speed, R454, 2 Stage Fan Coil w/ InteliSense™ Technology

  • California Prop 65
The 25-speed ECM (Electronically Commutated Motor) blower setting allows the FT5BD to operate efficiently when paired with a Carrier Performance™ Heat Pump or Air Conditioner with environmentally friendly (chlorine free) Puron Advance™ refrigerant. Further, you can now unlock a complete variable system functionality when FT5BD is paired with Carrier’s Next Generation variable speed condensing units and the new InteliSense capable thermostats.

With attention to quiet, efficient, and comfortable operation, Carrier has developed a new benchmark for superior indoor comfort and control. 

The FT5BD using Puron Advance refrigerant maximizes performance for environmentally balanced systems.

The FT5BD provides these benefits due to Carrier’s command of Mixed Flow Fan technology ECM blower and Vertex V-coil technology. These motors are extremely efficient at all speeds, and enable the FT5BD to operate at the correct speed to deliver airflow precisely, ensuring proper performance across a wide range of duct static pressures. This adaptive efficiency also makes installation quality easier to achieve for today’s demanding homeowner.

Carrier’s command of ECM technology may be most evident in the comfort advantages that ECM can deliver. Operation setup steps on the main control board provide the installing technician with alternatives to maximize comfort and efficiency. The dehumidification terminal on the board allows the installer to run a wire between the indoor and a dehumidification capable thermostat, providing true indoor comfort to the homeowner. This allows the FT5BD to be almost 20% on average shorter in height and 50 lbs on average lighter than traditional air handlers. Thus making it easier for shipping, handling, storage, and installation in tight spaces.

Another feature which sets the FT5BD apart is the factory-installed TXV with mechanical connections, which enhances efficiency and provides compressor protecting operation at all recommended conditions. Louvered aluminum fins, and the large face areas of the FT5BD refrigerant coils also provide superior efficiency, for high SEER2 and HSPF2 performance.
