Hi
Done a reasonable search though few hits regarding a Coke vending machine that has a faulty compressor, basically the fan wiring connector arc through insulation & burnt a hole through the side of compressor adjacent klixon. Obviously lost it's charge & comp needs to be changed.

Ok here in Syd Aust. told that Carrier have replacement comps for these 115Volt units though
when I contacted them were puzzled!
The comp is a Matsu****a Elec. model No. QA125V29CAU6, 115V.

Can anyone shed some light with a replacement? If not 115volt change to 240volt using a relay perhaps?

Should I look at a reco?

All advice appreciated.

get the details of the matsu sh it a compressor - displacement, gas,high /med/low back pressures, capillary or exp valve, starting method, psc or csr- dimensions, pipe positions, then you can compare with others for a suitable alternative compressor- danfoss ,kirby/tecumseh are reliable

That's good but having trouble getting any further info off the existing comp other than I posted above!

Size a replacement off the cubic capacity of the fridge, maybe ask a wholesaler to do it, is there a transformer fitted? Is it a Unifrigor fridge?

Thanks IM reckon that could be the original runs on R12 an oldie.
Probably go with the slightly higher capacity one. The unit does have a step down tranny from 240v-115v
so could easily install a relay & run the 240v model.
Thanks again very helpfull :)
