Copeland ZR21K5E-PFV-800 Compressor

The Copeland ZR21K5E-PFV-800 is a high-efficiency hermetic scroll compressor engineered specifically for R-22 and R-407C residential and light commercial air conditioning applications. Delivering 20,200 BTU at 230V single-phase power, this 1.75-ton unit features the proven ZRK5 platform, optimized for HVAC aftermarket replacement. It utilizes POE oil to ensure compatibility across multiple refrigerants, facilitating a smoother transition for systems moving away from mineral oil-based lubricants. As a direct replacement compressor for older models like the 921045, 917950, 11C29, and ZR22K3-PFV-830, it maintains a consistent 7.5" x 7.5" mounting footprint with a 3/4" stub suction and 1/2" stub discharge. Designed with 70% fewer moving parts than traditional reciprocating models, this Copeland scroll provides superior liquid handling, internal inherent protection, and a high EER rating for reliable, quiet performance under demanding system loads.

• Universal Compatibility: Charged with Polyolester (POE) oil, making it a versatile service compressor for both legacy R-22 and modern HFC systems.
• Direct Drop-in Replacement: Specifically replaces Lennox 11C29 and various OEM part numbers, minimizing the need for extensive piping modifications.
• Enhanced Reliability: Features internal pressure and temperature protection with a redesigned shell for improved sound attenuation and mechanical longevity.
• Optimized Efficiency: Engineered for 13-14 SEER standards, providing energy-efficient performance with a high-efficiency motor.
• Simplified Service: Durable stub connection design and a standardized capacitor requirement (35 MFD / 370V) streamline field installations.

Is the Copeland ZR21K5E-PFV-800 compatible with R-22?
Yes, this compressor is optimized for R-22 service when used in conjunction with a thorough system flush and proper lubricant management. Its POE oil charge simplifies the process for contractors servicing older equipment.

What are the electrical requirements for this 2-ton compressor?
The unit operates on 208-230V, 1-phase, 60Hz power, with a Locked Rotor Amperage (LRA) of 56.0 and a Rated Load Amperage (RLA) of approximately 10.8 to 12.0.

Are start components required for this scroll model?
While Copeland scrolls are designed to start under any system load, a 35 MFD / 370V run capacitor is required for operation (sold separately). In extreme low-voltage environments, a hard start kit may be used according to standard professional practices.
