What Are Direct Expansion (DX) Units?

Direct Expansion (DX) Units are special air conditioning systems that cool air directly. The unit integrates air filtration, temperature reduction, dehumidification, heating, and humidification functions. Unlike other systems, they don't need water pipes or cooling towers. Instead, these smart machines use refrigerant to cool air right away.

As a leading Direct Expansion (DX) Units Manufacturer, SongXin makes these systems for buildings of all sizes. From small offices to huge factories, these units work everywhere.

Direct Expansion (DX) Units

How Do Direct Expansion (DX) Units Work?

Understanding how these systems work is simple. Every Direct Expansion (DX) Units system has two main parts:

Outdoor unit

Contains the compressor and condenser

Indoor unit

Handles the air inside your building

1
Compression

First, the outdoor unit compresses refrigerant gas.

2
Condensation

Then, this hot gas moves to the condenser where it cools down.

3
Flow Transfer

Next, the cooled refrigerant flows to the indoor unit.

4
Air Cooling

Finally, the indoor unit uses this cold refrigerant to cool the air directly.

This process happens continuously, therefore keeping your building comfortable all day long.
