Rheem 55-107225-238 Scroll Compressor R-454B 208-230V

Product Description

The RHEEM 55-107225-238 is a fixed-speed scroll compressor designed for use with R-454B refrigerant in split and packaged air conditioning and heat pump systems. Built on LG M Generation scroll compressor technology, it incorporates bypass valve design for easier start-up and improved operating efficiency. Rated at 208-230 volts and available across 1.5 to 3.5 ton capacity variants, this compressor is engineered to deliver true OEM-level performance in residential and light commercial cooling and heat pump applications. Licensed HVAC technicians handling refrigerant-side repairs are the primary installers of this component.

This compressor is suited for residential and light commercial split-system air conditioners and packaged heat pump units operating on R-454B refrigerant. The fixed-speed scroll design is commonly specified in systems where steady-state capacity delivery and reliable start-up performance are required. The 208-230 volt rating covers standard single-phase residential and light commercial supply configurations. Capacity range falls within the 1.5 to 3.5 ton window, making it appropriate for smaller residential loads through mid-range light commercial applications.
