The Refrigerant System Module for VFD Compressors (RM454-Z) monitors and controls one refrigeration circuit of the HVAC unit. The RM454-Z is used on RZ units and on RN-E units with Danfoss compressors. The RM454-Z is connected to an AAON unit controller. Three or six RM454-Z Modules can be connected, depending on the size of the system.
