Carrier P032-4956 Compressor

The Carrier P032-4956 is a professional-grade hermetic reciprocating compressor designed for high-efficiency performance in light commercial and residential HVAC systems. Engineered for R-22 refrigerant applications, this unit delivers a nominal 49,000 BTU capacity and operates on a 208/230V single-phase power supply. As a direct OEM replacement compressor, it ensures precise fitment and restores original system specifications for Carrier, Bryant, and Payne condensing units. The internal pressure relief valves and high-torque motor design provide reliable starting even under high head pressure conditions. Technicians should verify LRA (Locked Rotor Amps) and RLA (Rated Load Amps) ratings during installation to ensure electrical compatibility with existing contactors and capacitors. This HVAC compressor 49,000 BTU model is built to withstand rigorous duty cycles while maintaining optimal volumetric efficiency across traditional R-22 cooling platforms.

• Optimized R-22 Performance: Specifically tuned for R-22 refrigerant systems to maintain pressure ratios and cooling capacity.
• High-Torque Motor: Reliable 208/230V single-phase operation ensures consistent startup in demanding ambient conditions.
• Durable Hermetic Seal: Rugged internal components reduce mechanical wear and extend operational life in commercial environments.
• OEM Precision: Direct replacement design eliminates the need for extensive piping modifications or mounting adjustments.

Is the Carrier P032-4956 compatible with R-407C?
While physically similar, this compressor is designed for R-22. Conversion to R-407C requires a POE oil flush and careful consideration of expansion valve compatibility.

What is the proper capacitor for this 49,000 BTU compressor?
Always check the rating plate on the individual unit, but most 49,000 BTU hermetic compressors in this class require a 45+5 or 50+5 MFD 370/440V dual run capacitor.

Does this unit include the internal overloads?
Yes, this Carrier compressor features internal thermal-overload protection to prevent motor burnout during localized overheating or electrical transients.
