Trane COM11215 Compressor 208-230V 3-Phase 4.5Ton R-22

The Trane COM11215 Compressor is a workhorse designed for moderate cooling loads in commercial and industrial settings, utilizing R-22 refrigerant (Important Note: R-22 usage is being phased out due to environmental regulations). A robust, self-contained unit (hermetic) constructed from cast iron, weighing around 70 lbs. Unlike traditional piston compressors, this Trane compressor uses a scroll mechanism for efficient operation. Within the sealed housing, two interlocking scrolls work together to compress refrigerant gas, creating high pressure. This design translates to a 4.5-ton capacity (54,000 BtuH), ideal for maintaining cool conditions even in environments with temperatures ranging from 45°C to 50°C. Secure brazed stub tubes (discharge size ½") provide leak-free connections for refrigerant circulation. Due to its weight and role within the system, professional handling is recommended for safe installation.
