Copeland ZR32K5E-PFV-800 Compressor

The Copeland ZR32K5E-PFV-800 is an industrial-standard hermetic scroll compressor engineered specifically for high-efficiency residential and light commercial air conditioning applications. Delivering 31,300 BTU of cooling capacity at ARI conditions, this 2.5 HP unit is optimized for R22 refrigerant and operates on a standard 208/230V single-phase power supply. As a member of the proven ZRK5 series, it features a 2.69 in³/rev displacement and is a high-reliability choice for contractors performing drop-in replacements for aging reciprocating or early-generation scroll models.

Designed for professional field installation, the ZR32K5E-PFV-800 utilizes POE (Polyolester) oil, providing superior lubrication and miscibility compared to legacy mineral oils. It is equipped with 3/4" suction and 1/2" discharge stub connections for secure brazing, along with an integrated molded plug for simplified electrical termination. This model is a direct technical replacement for multiple OEM part numbers, including ZR34K5E-PFV-800, COM11191, and 922170, ensuring exact physical footprint compatibility with a 7.5" x 7.5" mounting base.

Key Technical Benefits:

• Broad Compatibility: Engineered as a direct mechanical match for ZR34K5E-PFV-800, 921048, and 55-23140-13S.
• Advanced Efficiency: Features a high-efficiency motor and optimized scroll sets with an EER rating up to 10.5.
• Thermal Protection: Includes internal inherent protection to prevent motor failure under high-temperature or locked-rotor conditions.
• POE Lubricated: Ships with POE oil, facilitating better oil return and compatibility with modern HCFC and HFC blends like R-407C.
• Quiet Operation: Scroll technology reduces sound levels to approximately 68 dBA, significantly quieter than traditional piston compressors.

Common Contractor Questions:

Can I use this compressor with R-407C?
Yes, because the ZR32K5E-PFV-800 is charged with POE oil, it is technically compatible with R-407C. When retrofitting an R22 system to R-407C, ensure a complete system flush and replace the filter drier to maintain performance.

Does this unit require a start kit?
While this is a permanent split capacitor (PSC) motor, a hard start kit is highly recommended for applications with long line sets or where the system may start under a pressure stool to prevent locked rotor trips.

What are the mounting dimensions?
The unit features the industry-standard 7.5-inch by 7.5-inch mounting bolt pattern, fitting most residential condensing unit bases without modification.
