We've got a really old three phase R22 system here
that's freezing up that's probably going
to need to be replaced.
And as you can see, there's no nameplate that we can read.
I'm going to try to tell you,
I'm going to show you how to look at these compressors.
This is an old Copeland compressor.
You see these numbers right here?
It's 0500. That actually means
that's a 5 horse power compressor.
power motor in that compressor but that also tells
you that's a five ton compressor so not many of
them have nameplates like that anymore
but that's one way to tell what size a really old system is
