Rheem 55-102649-03s HRM042T4LP6 Compressor

Product Description

The RHEEM 55-102649-03s is a Danfoss-manufactured hermetic compressor engineered for use in Rheem central air conditioning sealed systems. Compressors of this type serve as the heart of the refrigerant circuit, pressurizing refrigerant vapor so heat transfer can occur across the system's coils. This unit carries the HRM042T4LP6 model designation, which typically indicates a scroll or reciprocating design sized for residential or light-commercial cooling loads. Licensed HVAC technicians handle installation and replacement, as sealed system work requires EPA Section 608 certification for refrigerant handling.

This compressor is intended for use in Rheem central air conditioning systems requiring a direct OEM replacement in the sealed refrigerant circuit. It is suited for applications where the original compressor has failed due to electrical fault, mechanical wear, or contamination. Technicians servicing Rheem split systems and package units will find this part relevant when diagnosing compressor burnout, seized scrolls, or loss of compression capacity. The HRM042T4LP6 designation should be matched against the existing unit's data plate before ordering.

Key Features

• Danfoss-manufactured hermetic compressor designed to OEM specifications for Rheem sealed systems
• HRM042T4LP6 model designation for direct cross-reference against original equipment data plates
• Hermetic sealed design eliminates external shaft seals, reducing refrigerant leak points
• Intended as a direct OEM-style replacement to restore system refrigerant circuit integrity
• Applicable to central air conditioning sealed system service requiring EPA Section 608 certified technicians

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement compressor for Rheem central air conditioning sealed systems. Verify the HRM042T4LP6 model number and system data plate specifications before installation to confirm fitment.

Installation Notes

Sealed system compressor replacement must be performed by an EPA Section 608 certified HVAC technician. Recover all refrigerant from the system before opening the refrigerant circuit, in compliance with applicable federal and local regulations. Flush the system if a burnout is suspected, and replace the filter drier any time the sealed system is opened. Restore refrigerant charge to manufacturer specifications using the unit's data plate values after completing installation.
