    Generaly speaking, higher motor power could lead to overheating of compresor if density of refrigerant is low at low evaporating temperature.

    Compressor is pump for gases. It does not know or care what refrigerant it is pumping. If you are in compressor operation range regarding temperatures and compression ratios, and using correct oil for that used refrigerant, you should not have any problem for using different refrigerant than what is on nameplate.

    Therefore you should use refrigerant with similar heat transfer capacity, since that is what determinate size of motor of compressor for given displacement.
