Trane COM6434 Compressor
As a seasoned technician, you know that commercial HVAC compressor replacement in 14-ton circuits requires exact OEM specifications to maintain system equilibrium. The Trane COM6434 is a CSHA model scroll compressor engineered specifically for heavy-duty R-22 applications. Operating on a 460V 3-phase power supply at 60Hz, this unit delivers a nominal cooling capacity of 168,000 BTU/hr. Designed for reliability in large-scale chillers and rooftop units, it features a 1-5/8 inch suction and 1-1/8 inch discharge with brazed connections to ensure a leak-proof hermetic seal. When swap-outs occur, maintaining the correct mineral oil charge is critical for scroll longevity. This 14-ton Trane compressor provides the high-volumetric efficiency needed to handle demanding industrial cooling loads while minimizing vibration and noise levels compared to older reciprocating technology.
Key Benefits- OEM Compatibility: Direct replacement for Trane CSHA series models, including CSHA140K0000 and CSHA140K0E00, ensuring proper fitment and performance.
- Efficient Power Distribution: The 460V 3Ph compressor configuration reduces amperage draw, lowering operational strain on your commercial electrical infrastructure.
- Durable Scroll Technology: Engineered with fewer moving parts than traditional pistons, offering superior liquid handling and resistance to wear.
- Precise Capacity: Rated at 168,000 BTUH, providing the exact displacement necessary for original Trane condenser and chiller configurations.
What refrigerant and oil are compatible with the COM6434?
This R-22 scroll compressor is factory-charged with mineral oil. It is essential to verify that the system is free of contaminants and that the oil acid levels are tested during installation to prevent premature failure.
Can this unit replace a reciprocating compressor?
While often used in Trane compressor retrofit kits, you must consult the original equipment serial number. Adjustments to piping, including the removal of unnecessary riser traps, may be required to ensure proper oil return for scroll operation.
What are the electrical requirements for this 14-ton unit?
The unit requires a 460-volt, 3-phase, 60Hz power source. Always verify the terminal block connections and utilize the correct wire gauge to handle the high starting torque of a 14-ton load.
