Copeland ZR68KCE-TF5-930 Compressor
The Copeland ZR68KCE-TF5-930 is a high-performance 5.5-ton scroll compressor designed for commercial air conditioning and heat pump applications. This 230V 3-phase compressor delivers a nominal 68,000 BTU cooling capacity and is optimized for use with R-22 and R-407C refrigerants. As a direct service replacement for the ZR68KC-TF5-930 and ZR68KC-TF5-950, it features an internal inherent motor protector and POE oil (polyolester oil) to ensure compatibility with modern HFC refrigerants. Built with the industry-standard 7.5" x 7.5" mounting base, this unit utilizes 7/8" suction and 1/2" discharge ODF sweat connections for a streamlined install in existing systems. Engineered for reliability in demanding environments, it maintains high volumetric efficiency while providing the quiet operation characteristic of the Copeland Scroll design.
Key Benefits:- Direct OEM Replacement: Drop-in compatibility for older ZR68KC-TF5-930 and ZR68KC-TF5-950 models, reducing field modification time.
- Dual Refrigerant Compatibility: Charged with POE oil to support both R22 legacy systems and R407C retrofits.
- Superior Efficiency: Optimized scroll technology provides high EER ratings and 156 LRA for robust starting performance under load.
- Compact and Quiet: Features a hermetic scroll design with fewer moving parts than reciprocating units, lowering vibration and sound levels.
Is the ZR68KCE-TF5-930 compatible with my existing R-22 system?
Yes, this model is the official replacement for the older ZR68KC series and is designed to operate in R-22 systems. Because it contains POE oil, ensure the system is clean and free of moisture during the swap.
What are the electrical requirements for this 68,000 BTU compressor?
