Description
The Daikin RXF24AXVJU is a 24,000 BTU-class Oterra Series outdoor heat pump condenser designed for a compatible single-zone ductless mini-split system. Installed outside the building, it contains the inverter compressor, outdoor heat exchanger, and fan responsible for transferring heat between the indoor zone and outdoor air. When paired with its approved Daikin indoor air handler, it provides both cooling and heat pump heating.
This listing is for the outdoor condenser only. It does not include the indoor air handler, refrigerant line set, communication wiring, mounting accessories, condensate components, or other installation materials required for a complete system.
Key Features
- Two-ton capacity class: Marketed in the 24,000 BTU category, with a published rated cooling capacity of 22,400 BTU
- 23,600 BTU heating capacity: Reverses the refrigeration cycle to provide heating through the matched indoor air handler
- Inverter swing compressor: Adjusts compressor speed to respond to changing indoor heating and cooling demand
- R32 refrigerant: Designed for an approved Daikin Oterra system using R32 refrigerant
- Single-zone operation: Connects to one compatible indoor unit for dedicated comfort control in one zone
- Automatic defrost: Helps manage frost accumulation on the outdoor coil during applicable heating conditions
The inverter compressor varies its output instead of operating only at a fixed speed. This allows the complete mini-split system to respond more closely to changes in indoor temperature. Automatic restart helps restore operation following a power interruption, while anti-corrosion treatment helps protect the outdoor heat exchanger.
When paired with the approved indoor unit, the system has published efficiency ratings of up to 21 SEER2, 12 EER2, and 9.1 HSPF2. These ratings apply to the certified indoor-and-outdoor combination rather than the condenser alone. The unit’s rated cooling capacity can vary from approximately 7,000 to 26,400 BTU, while heating capacity can range from approximately 6,200 to 28,600 BTU under specified conditions.
The cabinet measures approximately 36-5/8 inches wide, 27-13/32 inches high, and 13-13/16 inches deep. Published unit weight is approximately 101 pounds, and the outdoor sound level is listed at approximately 55 dB(A).
Compatibility and Installation Notes
The RXF24AXVJU is designed to pair with the Daikin FTXF24AXVJU Oterra Series wall-mounted indoor air handler. Equipment substitutions should not be made without verifying an approved match because compatibility affects operation, capacity, certified efficiency, and warranty coverage.
The condenser requires 208/230V, single-phase, 60 Hz electrical service. Minimum circuit ampacity is listed at 16.34 amps, with maximum overcurrent protection of 20 amps. Refrigerant connections measure 1/4 inch for the liquid line and 5/8 inch for the suction line.
Installation should be completed by a qualified HVAC professional according to Daikin instructions and applicable codes. The installer must verify the electrical circuit, disconnect, refrigerant line sizing and length, communication wiring, mounting location, clearances, evacuation, leak testing, charge requirements, and R32 A2L safety procedures.
System capacity should be confirmed through a professional load calculation rather than square footage alone.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the indoor air handler included?
No. This listing is for the RXF24AXVJU outdoor condenser only.
Which indoor unit is compatible?
The approved single-zone match is the Daikin FTXF24AXVJU wall-mounted air handler.
Why is it called a 24,000 BTU unit if its rated cooling capacity is 22,400 BTU?
It belongs to the nominal 24,000 BTU or two-ton capacity class. Certified operating capacity may differ from the nominal designation.
Does this condenser provide heating and cooling?
Yes. It operates as a reversible heat pump when connected to its compatible indoor unit.
What refrigerant does it use?
The RXF24AXVJU is designed for R32 refrigerant.
Confirm the matching indoor unit and installation requirements before purchasing this Daikin Oterra condenser.
