Default GMCC Inverter Rotary Compressors

Greetings,

Long time lurker and decided to register finally. Awesome forum. Finally a place for like minded individuals. The folks on HVAC talk and the various HVAC Facebook groups are a bunch of trade preservationist who will deliberately block outsiders from conducting any sort of experimentation. God forbid you find out how much a run cap replacement should really cost. Anyways..


So before I go applying power to my current WSHP water heater build, I’d like to know what to expect if I apply 220v single phase power to a mr. cool 18k btu compressor. Something tells me I won’t get what I’m looking for when the inkbird tells the contactor it needs heat and it closes those contacts. �� . Having 2 lbs of r290 sitting it might even make things interesting if it’s single phases and becomes rapidly hot.

It’s tough getting any information on them as they only furnish this documentation to their registered “partners” aka manufacturers…It’s a GMCC rotary compressor and the only information it gives is a model number and “160v at 180hz” and “Rated for flammable refrigerant”. My guess is that it’s the company’s cryptic way of indicating the ratio to which the inverter bored should drive the comp.


I have a smaller single phase comp which for sure runs on 110v but it’s capacity is an issue…. I have several of these GMCC rotary comps that I’d really like to put to use.
