Danfoss 120F0242 Compressor
The Danfoss 120F0242 Compressor is a high-capacity NTZ271A4LR1B hermetic reciprocating unit specifically engineered for low-evaporating temperature (LBP) refrigeration. Operating on a 460V 3-phase power supply at 60Hz (also compatible with 400V 3-phase/50Hz), this 4-cylinder model provides a robust 29,788 BTU capacity. Designed for use with R404A and R452A refrigerants, it is a frequent drop-in cross-reference for NTZ271A4LR1A and legacy LTZ100-4V models, making it a standard choice for supermarket racks and industrial walk-in freezers.
Built for the rigors of commercial refrigeration, the Danfoss NTZ271A4LR1B features a large internal free volume to mitigate risk from liquid slugging and hammering. The Rotolock connection system—utilizing 1-3/4" suction and 1-1/4" discharge ports—simplifies field piping. This 9HP-rated compressor includes an IP54-rated terminal box for protection in wash-down environments and utilizes a 3.9L initial charge of 175PZ POE oil to ensure consistent lubrication at low temperatures.
Key Benefits for Contractors- Optimized Low-Temp Performance: Specifically tuned for LBP envelopes where standard compressors struggle with efficiency.
- Broad Refrigerant Compatibility: Fully qualified for R404A and the lower-GWP R452A for modern compliance.
- Reliable Lubrication: Includes a 3/8" flare SAE oil equalization connection for parallel rack configurations.
- Durable Mechanics: High-torque motor and internal overload protection reduce field failures under heavy load conditions.
- Installation Ready: Shipped as a single pack including rotolock nuts, solder sleeves, and the necessary mounting grommet kit.
What is the maximum number of starts per hour for this model?
To prevent motor overheating and winding stress, the 120F0242 is rated for a maximum of 12 starts per hour.
Can this compressor be used in a parallel rack system?
Yes, it features a standard 3/8" flare oil equalization port, allowing for precise oil level management in multi-compressor configurations.
Is this unit direct-drive or inverter-compatible?
This is a fixed-speed compressor. For variable speed requirements, always consult the controller and drive compatibility guides for the NTZ series.
