48,000 BTU, 24.0 SEER2
The 48,000 BTU, ES-48Z-M6 is designed to easily support up to 6 air handlers at up to 1.25 times the condenser BTU rating, or 60,000 BTU across all air handlers. This adaptive, inverter condenser is constantly self-adjusting to provide the precise amount of heating or cooling needed to maintain your desired temperature in each room or zone. You can set different temperatures room by room, even turn off heating and cooling in unused areas. This, combined with a high efficiency rating of 24.0 SEER2, means you are buying a system designed to intelligently save you money both up front and over the lifetime of the unit.
Although the condenser is pre-charged, please note that this model of equipment does not have quick connect line set connectors and is not a self-install unit. You will need a professional to add more refrigerant and vacuum the lines as needed. Installation materials such as line sets, control wire, drain hose, whip and disconnect are not included, but are available at additional cost in the Accessories section to the right of this text. For all multi zone ACiQ condensers, a minimum of two air handlers is needed for the unit to function.
Self Cleaning Condenser
ACiQ condensers stay clean and efficient with self-cleaning technology built right in. At the end of each cycle, the fan reverses direction and blows air out the back of the unit — helping remove leaves, dirt, and debris before buildup can begin.
6,000 BTU - 12,000 BTU ACiQ Platinum Single Zone Slim Ceiling Casette Mini Split Air Handler - R454B | 230V

Slim Ceiling Cassettes give you the advantages of a traditional cassette, but in a slimmer profile designed to fit between 16”-on-center joists. This means an easier installation in many cases.
Slim Ceiling Cassettes have a one-way air delivery, taking in return air along one edge and delivering conditioned air out the other. Traditional ceiling cassettes send conditioned air out in 4 directions and take return air in at the center.
Slim Ceiling Cassette air handlers provide the same high-efficiency heating and cooling of a regular wall-mounted unit and come with a hand-held remote control. Once mounted in the ceiling, only the grille is visible for the most understated appearance.
This Slim Ceiling Cassette is rated for 6K, 9K and 12K Condensers and has a switch that allows you to change between settings as needed to fit your system.
BTU Compatibility
- Rated for 6,000, 9,000, and 12,000 BTU applications
- R-454B refrigerant – efficient and environmentally friendly
- Compatible with ACIQ multi-zone systems
Switchable Sizing
- ACIQ Slim Cassette models are rated for 6,000, 9,000, and 12,000 BTU applications.
Installation Considerations
Slim Ceiling Cassettes are flush-mounted, which requires removal of enough ceiling material to create a cavity for the unit. The Slim Ceiling Cassette is designed to fit between 16” on-center joists, and the narrow profile means no changes to your framing will be required in most cases. Additionally, Ceiling Cassettes have factory-installed, onboard condensate pumps to lift the condensation up to 14 inches. From there, it will be necessary to construct a PVC drain system to route the condensation to a safe wastewater location. Refrigerant and wiring connections are the same as the wall-mounted units.
Features
- Narrow profile fits between 16 inch-on-center joists
- Rated for 6K, 9K, and 12K BTU – dip switch adjustable (model dependent)
- No-ladder filter cleaning – grille lowers on cables for easy access to filter
- Handheld remote included
- Decorative Grille included
