A heat exchange unit is provided with which, even if a flammable refrigerant is used, the likelihood of the refrigerant reaching an electric component unit is reduced. An outdoor unit (20) constitutes a portion of an air-conditioning apparatus (1), and is connected to an indoor unit (30) via a liquid-side refrigerant connection pipe (6) and a gas-side refrigerant connection pipe (5). The outdoor unit (20) includes an outdoor housing (50), an outdoor heat exchanger (23) disposed inside the outdoor housing (50) and in which a refrigerant flows, a liquid-side shutoff valve (29) connected to the liquid-side refrigerant connection pipe (6), a gas-side shutoff valve (28) connected to the gas-side refrigerant connection pipe (5), and an outdoor electric component unit (8) disposed inside the outdoor housing (50). The refrigerant is a flammable refrigerant containing at least 1,2-difluoroethylene. When the outdoor unit (20) is in its installed state, the lower end of the outdoor electric component unit (8) is positioned above the liquid-side shutoff valve (29) and the gas-side shutoff valve (28).

A single-package air conditioner unit may include, a housing, an outdoor heat exchanger assembly, an indoor heat exchanger assembly, a compressor, an electronics casing, and an electronics board. The housing may define an outdoor portion and an indoor portion. The outdoor heat exchanger assembly may be disposed in the outdoor portion and include an outdoor heat exchanger and an outdoor fan. The indoor heat exchanger assembly may be disposed in the indoor portion and include an indoor heat exchanger and an indoor fan. The compressor may be in fluid communication with the outdoor heat exchanger and the indoor heat exchanger to circulate a refrigerant between the outdoor heat exchanger and the indoor heat exchanger. The electronics casing may be disposed in the outdoor portion apart from the outdoor heat exchanger. The electronics casing may define a board chamber in which the electronics board may be mounted.

Disclosed are an electric control box and a window air conditioner. The electric control box (200) includes a box body (210) including a bottom plate (211) and a box cover (212) that covers the bottom plate (211). The box cover (212) includes an outer box cover (500) and an inner box cover (600), and an edge of the inner box cover (600) is configured with a water blocking member (611); and the water blocking member (611) protrudes outward from the edge of the inner box cover (600) toward an edge of the outer box cover (500), and the water blocking member (611) is configured for blocking water on the outer box cover (500) from flowing into the inner box cover (600).

An electric control box assembly includes an outer box body, an inner box body provided in the outer box body and including an insulating member, an electric control board provided in the inner box body, and a component provided in the outer box body and located outside the inner box body. The component is connected with the inner box body.

A heat exchanger includes a pipe made of aluminum, a thermistor, and an attaching portion with which the thermistor is attached to the pipe. The pipe carries a flow of refrigerant. The thermistor detects a temperature of the refrigerant. The pipe includes a sacrificial layer provided on a part of a surface of the pipe. The sacrificial layer is lower in potential than the aluminum of the pipe. The attaching portion is higher in potential than the sacrificial layer. At least one part of the attaching portion is attached to the surface of the pipe where the sacrificial layer is not provided. The attaching portion includes a brazed portion that is higher in potential than the sacrificial layer. The thermistor is attached to the pipe with the brazed portion.
