Tecumseh AE1240E-679-J7 115V1Ph 1467Btu R134A Compress
The Tecumseh AE1240E-679-J7 compressor is designed specifically for refrigeration systems. It works by compressing the refrigerant gas, increasing the pressure and temperature. This hot, high-pressure gas then passes through the condenser coils, releasing heat into the surrounding air and causing the gas to condense into a liquid. The cooler liquid refrigerant then passes through the expansion valve, which reduces its pressure and temperature. This allows the refrigerant to absorb heat from the surrounding air in the evaporator coil, thereby cooling the air. Finally, the low-pressure, low-temperature refrigerant gas is drawn back into the compressor, completing the cycle. This Tecumseh compressor is commonly used in commercial refrigeration systems, such as walk-in coolers, ice machines, and beverage coolers.
