Only Qts is published — Qms assumed to be 6 and Qes calculated (barely affects box design).
Judging by its value, the published Re is for both coils in series — converted to per coil.
“≈” means the value isn’t in the spec sheet and a typical value for the size is used; “calc.” means it’s calculated from the published parameters. Check the manufacturer’s spec sheet before you build.
