4 Ton R410A 208/230V 3 Phase Daikin Condenser, DX13SA0483
The Daikin DX13SA0483 is a 4-ton (48,000 BTU/h nominal) light-commercial split-system air conditioner condenser built for 208/230V, 3-phase power. Factory-charged with R-410A and driven by a single-stage scroll compressor, this 13 SEER outdoor unit is engineered for offices, retail spaces, restaurants, and other three-phase commercial buildings that need dependable, efficient cooling. Offered here as a closeout special while supplies last.
Is a 4-Ton Condenser the Right Size?
The DX13SA0483 delivers a nominal 4 tons of cooling (48,000 BTU/h; 46,000 BTU/h AHRI-rated), making it a fit for medium commercial zones typically in the 1,600–2,000 sq. ft. range, depending on the building.
Actual capacity needs depend on insulation levels, ceiling height, window area and sun exposure, occupancy, ventilation loads, and local climate. Because this is a three-phase unit, it is intended for commercial service with three-phase power rather than a standard residential single-phase panel. This condenser is the outdoor half of a split system and must be matched with a properly sized indoor evaporator coil or air handler and a compatible metering device.
Ideal for: Offices, retail stores, restaurants, and light-commercial buildings with 208/230V 3-phase power needing efficient 4-ton R-410A cooling.
