Rcd ya20k1e-pfv-8a1 Scroll Compressor 20000 Btu/h R454B

Product Description

The RCD ya20k1e-pfv-8a1 is a scroll compressor designed for residential and light-commercial air conditioning systems using R454B refrigerant. Rated at 20,000 BTU/h, it operates on a 208-230 volt, single-phase, 60 Hz power supply. Scroll compressor technology delivers quiet, efficient compression compared to reciprocating designs, making it a common choice for modern high-efficiency cooling equipment. This part is an OEM-grade replacement unit intended for installation by a licensed HVAC technician. Its physical footprint — 14.5 inches long, 13.5 inches wide, and 20 inches tall — should be verified against the existing installation space before ordering.

This compressor is suited for split-system and packaged cooling equipment that has been designed or converted for use with R454B, a lower-GWP A2L refrigerant that has seen increasing adoption in residential air conditioning. Typical installation scenarios include replacing a failed compressor in an outdoor condensing unit or packaged rooftop system. Technicians working on A2L refrigerant systems should confirm that the service environment meets applicable safety requirements for mildly flammable refrigerants before beginning work.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement scroll compressor for R454B-based residential and light-commercial air conditioning systems requiring a 20,000 BTU/h, 208-230V single-phase unit.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed HVAC technician holding the appropriate EPA Section 608 certification for handling A2L refrigerants. Disconnect and lock out all electrical power to the condensing unit before removing the failed compressor. R454B is a mildly flammable refrigerant classified A2L — follow all applicable local codes and equipment manufacturer guidelines regarding ignition source control and ventilation during service. Verify suction and discharge line connections, oil compatibility, and crankcase heater operation before returning the system to service.
