Copeland CR35K6E-PFV-875 Compressor
The Copeland CR35K6E-PFV-875 is a high-performance, 6th generation reciprocating compressor engineered for commercial and residential air conditioning, heat pump, and geothermal applications. Operating at 208-230V on a single-phase, 60Hz circuit, this 3-ton unit delivers a nominal capacity of 35,000 BTU/hr. Designed specifically for R22 refrigerant systems (and compatible with R-407C in certain retrofit scenarios), it features a standard 7.5" x 7.5" mounting base and 3/4" suction by 1/2" discharge stub-out connections for straightforward installation. As the primary HVAC replacement part for legacy model 55-22972-09S, this hermetic unit utilizes a permanent split capacitor motor and includes an internal line-break protector to prevent thermal overload. For contractors performing a field swap, verify that your run capacitor is rated for 40 MFD at 370/440V and ensure the 42-inch molded plug wiring harness is utilized for a secure electrical interface.
Key Benefits for Technicians- Direct OEM Compatibility: Serves as the precise drop-in replacement for the 55-22972-09S, minimizing piping modifications during emergency repairs.
- Enhanced Efficiency: Utilizes a 6th generation reciprocating design reaching an EER of up to 10.7, optimized for 13 SEER residential equipment.
- Internal Protection: Features a built-in line-break motor protector that guards against high-temperature and overcurrent failure modes.
- Quiet Operation: Benefit from the refined internal suspension and 2-cylinder design common to the Copeland CR family, reducing vibration throughout the refrigerant lines.
- Field-Ready Components: Often includes a crankcase heater and a pre-installed terminal plug to speed up the charging and commissioning process.
What is the correct oil for the CR35K6E-PFV-875?
This model typically ships with Polyolester (POE) oil, which is required for R-407C retrofits but also supports R-22 systems. Always verify existing system oil to prevent contamination.
Can I use a 35/370 MFD capacitor if a 40/370 is not on the truck?
No. To ensure proper starting torque and motor winding longevity, you must use a 40 MFD run capacitor. Using an undersized capacitor can lead to frequent tripping on the internal overload.
Why are the suction and discharge lines "stub-out" instead of threaded?
The stub-out (sweat) connections allow for a more reliable, leak-proof braze joint, which is critical for maintaining high-pressure integrity in R22 and R-407C systems.
