5F
Open-Drive
Reciprocating Compressor
5 to 25 Nominal HP
34 to 102 Nominal m³/h
20 to 60 Nominal cfm
- Versatile and reliable performer for comfort or refrigeration.
- Belt- or direct drive.
- Compatible with R-134a, R-404A, R-407C refrigerants.
Suitable for air conditioning or refrigeration applications, belt drive or direct drive, purchase the bare compressor and build up your own system, or let Carrier build a complete marine condensing unit for you.
Features
- Automatic unloaded starting, expensive high-torque motors are unnecessary, reducing initial expense.
- High-efficiency motor can further increase efficiency of 5F and 5H compressors.
- Crankcase casting, cylinder head, and valve plate designs allow for a smooth, unrestricted refrigerant flow.
- Refined, two-piece shaft seal assembly virtually eliminates seal leakage for maximum reliability over a wide temperature range.
- Efficient crankcase heater design prevents accumulation of liquid refrigerant in the crankcase during shutdown, dilution of the compressor oil supply.
- As suction pressure changes, capacity control automatically reduces compressor capacity to as low as 35% of full-design load, reducing horsepower requirements as demand changes. Part-load operation increases energy efficiency, reducing utility bills.
- Large-capacity, manually reversible oil pump, automatic pressure regulator, and oil-filtering system provide positive pressure lubrication, extending life.
- Suction gases flow around cylinder sleeve to keep the cylinder cool, reducing cylinder wear.
- Greater operating efficiencies by running an over sized compressor at a reduced RPM.
