Replacement of condensing units
Standard series (LH)
Condensing units that are no longer available (incl. LD and LHQ series): LH32/2KES .. LH135/6H
Current models (recognisable by the notation "LH..E"): LH32E/2KES .. LH265E/6GE
Further current models outside the EU (recognisable by the notation "LH../..E"): LH32/2KES .. LH265E/6GE
For replacing the compressor, refer to the compressor model: In the designation of the condensing unit, it is listed behind the slash, e.g. 2KES. If this compressor is no longer available, choose the respective current model among the reciprocating compressors (Replacement of compressors).
Ecostar series (LHV)
Condensing units that are no longer available: LHV6/2DC .. LHV6/4CES
Current models (recognisable by the notation "LHV.E"): LHV5E/2DES-3.F1 .. LHV7E/ 4NE-14.F3
In the models LHV7E, the suction gas cooled .F3 frequency inverters were replaced in 2023 by air cooled VARIPACK frequency inverters (model FOY+39-4, IP66). The model designation changes from LHV7E/ .. .F3 to LHV7E/ .. .F.
Old model | New model |
|---|---|
LHV7E/4DE-7.F3 | LHV7E/4DE-7.F |
LHV7E/4CE-9.F3 | LHV7E/4CE-9.F |
LHV7E/4VE-7.F3 | LHV7E/4VE-7.F |
LHV7E/4TE-9.F3 | LHV7E/4TE-9.F |
LHV7E/4PE-12.F3 | LHV7E/4PE-12.F |
LHV7E/4NE-14.F3 | LHV7E/4NE-14.F |
This change does not apply to ECOSTAR models with .F1 frequency inverter.
For replacing the compressor, refer to the compressor model: In the designation of the ECOSTAR, it is listed behind the slash, e.g. 4DE. If this compressor is no longer available, choose the respective current model among the reciprocating compressors (Replacement of compressors).
