Hey guys, after a little bit of advice/info....
The compressor in my mothers weatherwall gave it up last weekend, the unit is an email york unit, model no. fm61h.
the compressor is an M.D.K. compressor, model NH461VB.
this compressor is not being made anymore, so im looking for something to replace it.
its single phase and on R22.
my first question is that on the compressor name plate i have an AP rating of 28kg/cm2, and an SP rating of 84kg/cm2.
i have never heard of these before.... judging by the fact they are measured in kg/cm2, the only thing i can think of that they might perhaps mean a maximum working pressure? can anyone clarify this or correct me?
secondly, how can i size this compressor up to find a suitable one to replace it with? i know compressors can be measured in displacement, but unfortunately thats not on the name plate.... or the power of the compressor. other than that, the units total amps are 10.7, but included in this would be the compressor along with the 2 fan motors.
can anyone offer any advice? or point me in the right direction? i cant even find a kW rating of the unit.
any help would be greatly appreciated.... thanks!!
