Carrier Infinity Greenspeed 24VNA6 air conditioner and 25VNA4 heat pump (variable speed): quick sheet
Covers: Carrier Infinity Greenspeed Intelligence variable-speed outdoor units: 24VNA6 air conditioner (up to 26 SEER) and 25VNA4 heat pump (up to 24 SEER, up to 13 HSPF), 2-5 ton. Nomenclature from the service manual: 24 = AC, 25 = HP; V = variable speed; N = Infinity series; A = Puron (R-410A); 6 / 4 = SEER tier; two digits = nominal capacity (e.g. 36 = 36,000 BTU/h); voltage digit 3 = 208/230-1; compressor ID 4 = variable-speed scroll, 5 = variable-speed rotary. Serial format: week + year + plant letter + sequence (e.g. 0118E00001). Other 24VNA families (24VNA0, 24VNA9) use different software and code lists.
The heart of the unit is a Samsung variable-speed rotary or scroll compressor driven by a Samsung variable frequency drive (VFD), an ECM outdoor fan and the Primary Control Module (PCM). It is designed to run with an Infinity communicating wall control and a variable-speed furnace or fan coil. The PCM has an amber status LED, a green Comm LED, a red/green VFD Comm LED and a 5 x 7 dot-matrix display that scrolls up to four active codes in priority order.
Safety first
- Inverter capacitors hold dangerous DC voltage after power off.
- No refrigerant charging or sealed-system steps: refer to an EPA 608 certified technician.
How it works
The Infinity control sends capacity demand; the PCM tells the VFD what speed to run the compressor and fan.
Codes are two-part numbers (e.g. 18-11). The first part is the category, the second the detail.
Heat pump defrost uses outdoor coil and air sensors; defrost interval switches offer auto, 30, 60 or 90 minutes.
Active status codes are kept in memory even with power removed.
