Copeland CRNQ-050E-TFD-556 Compressor Sourcing for Peru

A Copeland CRNQ-050E-TFD-556 hermetic reciprocating compressor order for Peru, followed from nameplate verification through fitted wooden-case packing.

A Peruvian customer needed a Copeland CRNQ-050E-TFD-556 compressor for an HVAC replacement order. The request was handled by complete model, not by a general “5 HP Copeland compressor” description.

MAVORIX coordinated the China-side purchase, checked the visible nameplate, recorded the compressor inside its fitted wooden case and followed the closed-case packing before dispatch to Peru. These photos document the actual product and packing used for the order.

Starting with the complete compressor model

The label in the open case clearly shows CRNQ-050E-TFD-556. It also shows Copeland branding, thermal protection, three-phase supply, 50/60 Hz and two voltage ranges. The LRA marking is 65.0 A.

Those details matter because CRNQ-050E is a family reference, while the motor code and final bill-of-material suffix identify a more specific configuration. A compressor with the same first characters may still differ in voltage, phase, connections, refrigerant application or included components.

What the open wooden case shows

The compressor was placed upright in a purpose-sized wooden case and held on its mounting feet. Small connection components were bagged and fixed separately near the top of the case instead of being left loose against the compressor shell.

This view is useful because it connects the readable label to the unit being packed. It also shows that the compressor is not free to roll inside an oversized box. However, a packing photo is not an operating test. It does not prove cooling capacity, winding resistance, internal condition or compatibility with the customer's HVAC circuit.

Replacement checks before ordering

For a compressor replacement, an exact-looking shell is not enough. The old compressor label, equipment model and system data should be compared before purchase.

The main checks include:

  • Complete model and suffix.
  • Refrigerant used by the existing system.
  • Lubricant type and service history.
  • Voltage, phase and frequency at the installation.
  • Required capacity at the actual evaporating and condensing conditions.
  • Suction and discharge line sizes and positions.
  • Mounting footprint and available cabinet height.
  • Start components, protection and control arrangement.
  • Site rules for refrigerant, electrical installation and pressure equipment.
Cooling capacity is condition-dependent. A catalog value measured at one evaporating and condensing point should not be treated as the guaranteed result in another climate, coil selection or control setup.

Why the Peru destination changes the purchasing review

Peru commonly uses both 50 Hz and 60 Hz industrial equipment depending on the facility and imported machine. The visible compressor label provides both frequency rows, but that does not remove the need to confirm the actual site supply and the HVAC unit design.

The buyer should also confirm which refrigerant is installed, whether it can be legally and practically serviced, and whether the replacement will be commissioned by a qualified refrigeration technician. A compressor should never be selected only because a seller describes it as “suitable for air conditioning.”

Closing and strapping the export case

After the compressor and accessories were recorded, the wooden case was closed and secured with multiple plastic straps. The outside condition and lifting arrangement were photographed before dispatch.

For compressor transport, the unit should remain upright, ports should stay protected and the base should restrain the mounting feet. Loose accessories need separate identification. Where sea freight or long storage is expected, the packing plan should also address moisture protection and the destination unloading method.

What buyers should send for a Copeland compressor inquiry

An efficient RFQ includes:

  • Clear old-compressor nameplate photo.
  • Complete model, including every suffix.
  • HVAC unit brand, model and wiring information.
  • Refrigerant and lubricant.
  • Voltage, phase and frequency.
  • Operating temperatures or required duty.
  • Suction and discharge connection details.
  • Mounting dimensions and cabinet restrictions.
  • Required accessories and spare parts.
  • Quantity, destination and packing requirement.

MAVORIX support for HVAC compressor sourcing

MAVORIX provides independent sourcing and supplier coordination. We can keep model information consistent across quotations, request supplier documents, collect product and packing photos, and consolidate the approved compressor with controls, sensors, valves, filters or other maintenance items.

We do not manufacture the compressor and do not claim authorized Copeland distribution without specific documentation. Final compatibility, installation and commissioning should be approved by the buyer and a qualified HVAC professional.

Peruvian buyers can combine this service with Peru sourcing support, electrical and mechanical parts sourcing, factory spare parts and export support. Send the old label and destination through the contact page.

FAQ

What type of compressor is the CRNQ-050E-TFD-556?

It is a Copeland hermetic reciprocating compressor. The complete model and the existing HVAC system should be checked before replacement ordering.

What voltage is shown on this compressor?

The photographed nameplate shows 380/420 V at 50 Hz and 380/460 V at 60 Hz, with a three-phase motor.

Does the photo confirm the refrigerant and cooling capacity?

No. The photo confirms the model and visible electrical markings. Refrigerant and capacity at the required operating conditions must be verified separately.

How was the compressor packed for Peru?

The compressor was secured upright inside a fitted wooden case, with separate components bagged and fixed. The case was then closed and strapped for handling.

Can MAVORIX check an alternative compressor model?

MAVORIX can coordinate an alternative comparison, but the supplier should provide written cross-reference data covering refrigerant, capacity, electrical supply, connections, mounting and operating envelope.

Need an Exact-Model HVAC Compressor?

Send the old compressor nameplate, HVAC unit model, refrigerant, electrical supply, connections, quantity and destination. MAVORIX can help verify the full model and follow export packing.
