Tecumseh ak111et-004-j7 208-230V 1ph 12000 Btu R22 Reciprocating Compressor 1 Hp

Product Description

The Tecumseh AK111ET-004-J7 is a single-phase reciprocating compressor rated at 12,000 BTU and designed for R22 refrigerant systems. It operates on 208-230V power at both 50Hz and 60Hz, making it suitable for a wide range of residential and light commercial air conditioning and refrigeration applications. HVAC technicians rely on this compressor for direct replacement work in window units, mini-splits, and packaged terminal air conditioners where R22 is still in service. The unit delivers 1 horsepower and uses a Permanent Split Capacitor motor with Low Start Torque, which is ideal for systems that do not require high startup loads. The compressor is fan-cooled and draws a Running Load Amps rating of 6.8 amps at 60Hz, with a Locked Rotor Amps rating of 34 amps. The displacement is 22.599 cubic centimeters, supporting efficient vapor compression across its rated evaporating range of -10 degrees Fahrenheit to 55 degrees Fahrenheit. Polyolester oil is used for internal lubrication at a charge volume of 504 cc with a viscosity grade of 32, ensuring proper lubrication and compatibility with refrigerant systems. The suction line measures 3/8 inches and the discharge line measures 1/4 inches, fitting standard copper line sets used in residential HVAC work. The unit includes mounting hardware, a terminal cover, and grommets for vibration isolation, reducing installation time on the job. It carries CURUS agency approval, confirming it meets safety and performance standards for use in the United States and Canada. The compressor weighs 37 pounds and measures approximately 8.954 inches in height, 10.579 inches in length, and 7.298 inches in width, allowing it to fit within typical compressor compartments without modification. This unit is a dependable drop-in replacement for failed R22 compressors in aging systems still requiring service.
