Hi-Velocity HVS-60 5-Ton Variable Speed Heat Pump
The HVS-60 is Hi-Velocity's 5-ton inverter-driven variable-speed outdoor heat pump, purpose-built to pair with the HE-Z, HE-P, LV-Z or LV-B indoor air handlers. The outdoor inverter continuously modulates refrigerant flow to match indoor coil conditions, holding a steady supply-air off-temperature across the entire load range and every open zone — a substantial efficiency and comfort improvement over fixed-speed or two-stage condensers, which cannot reduce capacity below ~70%.
Key features
- Inverter-drive variable-speed compressor — modulates capacity to real-time load
- Electronic expansion valve built into the outdoor unit — no TXV required at the indoor coil
- 240V input (208–230 V ± 10%) via 24V Interface Panel — requires surge protection
- Communication cable — unshielded 14 AWG on HVS-24; shielded 18 AWG on HVS-36/60
- Factory charge shipped ready to install (add refrigerant only for line-sets over 25 ft)
- Ships with 24V Interface Kit for indoor–outdoor communication

Applications
The HVS Variable-Speed Heat Pump is the Hi-Velocity system's inverter-drive outdoor solution for zoned residential and light-commercial installations — including custom homes, retrofits, historic properties and multi-zone commercial fit-outs where load requirements change continuously. Pairs with the corresponding RBM-I or RCM-I heat-pump-ready cooling module inside the air handler.
