Description
Copeland ZRD72KCE-TFD-965 Digital Scroll Compressor Overview
The Copeland ZRD72KCE-TFD-965 is a high-performance Digital Scroll compressor engineered for commercial HVAC and refrigeration applications. Operating on a 460V, 3-phase power supply, this unit delivers approximately 6 tons of cooling capacity with the advanced modulation capabilities that Copeland’s Digital Scroll technology is known for. Designed for reliability and energy efficiency, it is an ideal replacement or upgrade compressor for demanding commercial systems.
Digital Scroll Technology
Copeland Digital Scroll compressors use a patented solenoid-actuated unloading mechanism that allows the compressor to cycle between fully loaded and fully unloaded states. This rapid modulation effectively varies the system’s capacity from approximately 10% to 100%, enabling precise temperature and humidity control while significantly reducing energy consumption compared to fixed-capacity alternatives.
Key Features
- Digital Scroll modulation technology for variable capacity control (approx. 10–100%)
- 460V / 3-Phase power supply
- Approximately 6-ton (72,000 BTU/hr) nominal cooling capacity
- ZRD-series scroll compressor platform — proven reliability in commercial applications
- Designed for use with R-410A refrigerant (TFD designation)
- Improved part-load efficiency for reduced operating costs
- Enhanced temperature and humidity control capability
- Suitable for rooftop units, chillers, and split systems
Application
The ZRD72KCE-TFD-965 is well-suited for commercial air conditioning systems, precision cooling environments, and any application where tight temperature control and energy efficiency are priorities. Its Digital Scroll design makes it an excellent choice for variable-load conditions common in commercial buildings, data centers, and process cooling.
