❄️ Refrigerants
The ZF/ZFI family covered by your catalogue is qualified for:
R404A, R507, R407A, R407C, R407F, R448A, R449A and R22.
For modern systems, refrigerant selection should always be confirmed against the compressor version, local regulations and the system design.
🌡️ Low-Temperature Application
The ZFKQ series is designed for low-temperature refrigeration, with the overall family having an operating envelope extending down to approximately −40°C evaporating temperature, depending on the refrigerant, condensing temperature and specific model.
Typical applications include:
- Walk-in freezers
- Frozen food cold rooms
- Meat and seafood freezing/storage
- Supermarket refrigeration
- Commercial display freezers
- Food processing refrigeration
- Low-temperature condensing units
📊 R404A Cooling Capacity
For R404A at 50 Hz and 45°C condensing temperature, Copeland's current selection data gives approximately:
| Evaporating Temperature |
Cooling Capacity |
| −35°C |
1.32 kW |
| −30°C |
1.65 kW |
| −25°C |
2.02 kW |
| −20°C |
2.46 kW |
| −15°C |
2.97 kW |
| −10°C |
3.56 kW |
| −5°C |
4.24 kW |
These capacities are useful because the same 2 HP compressor produces very different refrigeration capacity depending on the evaporating and condensing conditions. Copeland
⚡ Electrical Options
For the three-phase 50 Hz versions, your catalogue identifies:
TFC: 200 V, 3 Phase, 50 Hz
TFD: 380–420 V, 3 Phase, 50 Hz
For markets such as New Zealand and Australia, the TFD 380–420 V, 3-phase, 50 Hz version would generally be the relevant three-phase option, but the exact electrical code should be confirmed when ordering.
⭐ Key Features
The Copeland ZF06KQE offers:
Low-temperature scroll technology for freezer applications, liquid injection for discharge-temperature control, compact hermetic construction, low vibration, and fewer moving parts compared with traditional reciprocating compressors. The catalogue also notes internal thermal protection for ZF*KQE compressors.
