This guide details its 150ml oil charge, electrical specs, and competitive advantages for technicians.
When technicians open a scroll compressor casing, the real engineering lives in internal mechanisms invisible at first glance: the floating seal preventing vacuum damage, the motor protector monitoring temperature and amperage, the pressure relief valve, the discharge check valve preventing reverse rotation, and the optimized bearing system. Understanding these core…
The Donper K400CZ1 is a hermetic reciprocating compressor designed for commercial refrigerators and chest freezers operating with refrigerant R134a on 220‑240V 50Hz single‑phase power. It offers roughly 1/2 hp class performance with about 400 W cooling capacity, making it suitable for medium‑size display cabinets and storage equipment in supermarkets and…
When a refrigerator or freezer arrives with a worn nameplate, identifying the compressor becomes difficult. The Danfoss and Secop model codes—such as TFS 4 AT, FR 8.5A, or SC 18B—tell you exactly what you're dealing with. This chart breaks down those codes into horsepower, watt consumption, and amp ratings for…
The data plate on the Copeland ZR61KCE‑TF7‑522 compressor matches the official Copeland Scroll specifications for R407C air‑conditioning duty and includes the Copeland authenticity label linking to copeland.com/v, a key anti‑counterfeit feature. When purchased through an authorized distributor, these details strongly indicate that the unit installed in your system is genuine.
Tecumseh commercial compressors range from 1/9 HP (230 W) to 3 HP (4,000 W), delivering refrigeration capacities from 278 W to 6,973 W across R404A, R134a, and legacy refrigerants. This complete technical guide provides exact horsepower, input wattage, evaporating ranges, and application types for all ten major models used in…
