Copeland ZR72KCE-TFD-950 Compressor

The Copeland ZR72KCE-TFD-950 is a heavy-duty 6-ton scroll compressor engineered for high-performance commercial air conditioning and heat pump applications. Operating on 460V, 3-phase power, this unit is a direct replacement for ZR72KCE-TFD-522 and R08290. Designed for use with R407C refrigerant and pre-charged with POE oil, it provides a versatile solution for maintenance and retrofits in systems originally utilizing R22 or R134a. The scroll design minimizes moving parts, ensuring superior liquid handling and operational reliability under demanding thermal loads.

Technical professionals rely on the ZR72KCE-TFD-950 for its internal inherent motor protection and high energy efficiency ratio (EER). Its centrifugal oil pump ensures consistent lubrication across the bearing surfaces, extending the service life of the 60Hz motor. Whether you are servicing a rooftop unit or a large-scale split system, this 72,000 BTU compressor delivers the cooling capacity required for mission-critical HVACR infrastructure.

Key Technical Benefits

• Phase and Voltage: Optimized for 460V 3-phase industrial electrical configurations to ensure balanced motor loads.
• Refrigerant Versatility: Specifically designed for R407C, while maintaining compatibility with R134a and R22 systems using appropriate oil management.
• Duty Cycle: Engineered for A/C duty, providing stable compression for both cooling and heat pump cycles.
• Reduced Noise: Advanced scroll technology reduces vibration and acoustic output compared to reciprocating alternatives.
• Build Quality: Features a rugged internal assembly with inherent protection to prevent motor burnout during phase loss or overheating.

Common Questions

Is the ZR72KCE-TFD-950 a drop-in replacement for the ZR72KCE-TFD-522?
Yes, the ZR72KCE-TFD-950 is the direct functional replacement, sharing the same electrical characteristics and physical footprint for seamless integration.

What type of oil is used in this compressor?
This model is charged with POE (Polyolester) oil, which is required for R407C and HFC refrigerants to ensure proper miscibility and lubrication.

Can this unit be used in a 230V system?
No, this is a 460V 3-phase motor. Attempting to install this on a 230V circuit will cause immediate equipment failure. Always verify site voltage before installation.
