Airrex HWC-60R Water-Cooled Portable Spot Cooler 61000 BTU 5 Ton R-454B Refrigerant 220V Single Phase Dual 5 Inch Nozzles Built-In Condensate Pump No Venting Required ETL Listed
Airrex HWC-60R Water-Cooled Portable Spot Cooler — 61,000 BTU, 5-Ton, R-454B
The Airrex HWC-60R is a heavy-duty 5-ton water-cooled portable spot cooler engineered for high-demand directed cooling in spaces where warm air venting isn't an option. Unlike air-cooled spot coolers, it uses a closed-loop water cooling system to remove condenser heat — making it ideal for industrial production facilities, large enclosed kitchens, and high-ambient environments. Delivers 61,000 BTU of cooling through two 5-inch front cold air nozzles, uses modern R-454B refrigerant, runs on 220V single-phase service (NEMA 5-15 plug, 15-amp circuit), and includes a built-in condensate pump as standard. ETL listed.
Key Features
Engineered for dependable performance with the features that matter most.
Water-Cooled, No Venting Required
A closed-loop water cooling system removes condenser heat without warm air discharge — perfect for tightly enclosed spaces where ducting isn't practical or possible.
61,000 BTU Directed Cooling
Heavy-duty 5-ton spot cooling output through dual 5" front cold air nozzles — concentrated cooling for hot work zones in spaces that can't vent.
Dual 5" Cold Air Nozzles
Two front-mounted 5" diameter cold air nozzles let you split airflow between two work zones or aim both at a single hot spot for concentrated cooling.
Eco-Friendly R-454B Refrigerant
Modern low-GWP R-454B refrigerant — the newer-generation "R" model meets current environmental standards while delivering 5 tons of reliable cooling.
Built-In Condensate Pump
Auto condensate pump is included as standard — continuous moisture removal without manual tank emptying, even under heavy dehumidification loads.
ETL Listed & Protected
ETL listed with high/low-pressure switches, 3-minute compressor delay, thermostat protector, fan motor protection, and safety devices for reliable operation.
Note: The HWC-60R is engineered to operate with a closed water loop system — it requires a constant supply of cooling water through twist-and-lock connections. Particularly suited to environments where outdoor exhaust ducting is impossible or where ambient temperatures exceed what air-cooled units can handle. Operating range 68-113°F.
Ideal Applications
Heavy-duty 5-ton water-cooled spot cooling for the most challenging enclosed environments — industrial production, sealed clean rooms, and large institutional kitchens.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why choose a water-cooled spot cooler over an air-cooled one?
Water-cooled is the right choice when you can't vent warm air: tightly enclosed spaces, sealed clean rooms, hospitals, indoor kitchens without exterior wall access, or environments where ambient temperatures challenge what air-cooled exhaust systems can handle.
What's the cooling capacity?
61,000 BTU/h of directed cooling (5-ton) through two 5" front cold air nozzles. Operating range 68-113°F ambient.
What power does the HWC-60R need?
220V single-phase, 60 Hz service through a NEMA 5-15 plug on a 15-amp circuit. The water-cooling system makes it electrically efficient — just 12.6 A current draw at 1.5 kW.
What refrigerant does the HWC-60R use?
Modern, low-GWP R-454B refrigerant. The "R" suffix indicates this updated refrigerant generation versus the older HWC-60 (R-410A) — this is a fully refreshed model.
Is the condensate pump built in?
Yes. The HWC-60R includes a built-in auto condensate pump as standard — continuous moisture removal without manual tank emptying.
How does the water cooling work?
The HWC-60R uses a closed-loop water system — water circulates through the condenser to absorb heat, then returns to a chiller, cooling tower, or building water loop to dissipate that heat. Twist-and-lock water inlet/outlet connections make hookup straightforward.
