IceQube enclosure air conditioners cross to the Pfannenberg DTS series for side mount and the DTT series for top mount. The tables below cover the V, VS, EV, ECO, MM and T series, compared at the 95°F/95°F rating point. Every IceQube model below carries NEMA Type 12, 3R, 4 and 4X, matching the DTS series, so the substitution comes down to capacity, voltage and cutout.

Pfannenberg DTS part numbers carry a voltage code, so a family name such as DTS 31X1 covers the 115, 230 and 460V builds. Where a 95/95 figure is shown as two or three numbers, they are the 115 / 230 / 460V values in that order. Send the voltage and we return the full orderable part number.
The IceQube BDC series runs on 48 VDC. Pfannenberg DTS air conditioners are AC powered in 115, 230 or 460V, so a DC powered application needs a different approach. Send the application and we will tell you what fits.

Compare capacity at 95°F/95°F, not the nameplate
Enclosure air conditioner ratings are not published at a single standard condition, so nameplate BTU/hr numbers across brands are not directly comparable. The honest comparison is capacity at 95°F ambient and 95°F enclosure temperature, read off the manufacturer's performance curve. A unit sold as 3,900 BTU/hr can deliver 3,400 BTU/hr at the 95/95 point. Every table on this page shows both numbers where the curve is published.
Four things have to line up before a substitution is valid:
- Capacity at the rating point. Match 95/95 performance, not marketing BTU.
- Voltage. 115, 230 or 460V must match the nameplate.
- Enclosure rating. NEMA Type 12, 3R, 4 or 4X on the air conditioner must match the enclosure environment.
- Mounting cutout. A capacity cross is not a cutout cross. Pfannenberg adapter plates cover specific retrofits; otherwise send the cutout dimensions with the model number and we confirm the mounting approach on the quote.
Also check where the cold air supply sits relative to the hot air return. Several competitor designs place them within 2 to 6 inches of each other, which lets cold discharge short-cycle straight back into the return and cuts effective cooling. Pfannenberg DTS units separate supply and return across the full height of the unit.
Common questions
What is the Pfannenberg equivalent of the IceQube IQ4000VS?
The Pfannenberg DTS 31X1. The IQ4000VS delivers 3,750 to 4,200 BTU/hr at the 95F/95F point depending on voltage, and the DTS 31X1 delivers 4,100 at 115V and 4,500 at 230V. Both carry NEMA Type 12, 3R, 4 and 4X.
What is the Pfannenberg equivalent of the IceQube IQ6000 series?
The Pfannenberg DTS 31X5 for the IQ6000VS, IQ6000ECO and IQ6000EV, which deliver 5,300 to 6,000 BTU/hr at the 95F/95F point against 6,142 at 115V and 6,995 at 230 and 460V for the DTS 31X5. The IQ6000V runs lower at 5,000 to 5,200 and crosses to the DTS 31X1 SL.
Does Pfannenberg have an equivalent to the IceQube BDC series?
The BDC series runs on 48 VDC and Pfannenberg DTS air conditioners are AC powered in 115, 230 or 460V, so a DC powered application needs a different approach. Send the application and the load and we will tell you what fits.
Are IceQube nameplate ratings the same as performance at 95F/95F?
Not consistently, and they move in both directions. The IQ2500V sells as 2,500 BTU/hr and shows 2,600 to 2,750 at 95/95, while the IQ6000V sells as 6,000 and shows 5,000 to 5,200. Compare both columns in the table before sizing a replacement.
