Danfoss SM185-3QAI Compressor
The Danfoss SM185-3QAI is a high-capacity R22 scroll compressor designed for demanding commercial air conditioning and heat pump applications. Operating on a 200-230V 3-phase power supply, this 15-HP workhorse delivers a nominal cooling capacity of 185,400 BTU/h. Engineered for reliability in large-scale systems, the SM185S3QAI model features an internal motor protection module and a robust 3-leg scroll design that handles liquid slugs more effectively than reciprocating units. With a 1-5/8" suction and 1-1/8" discharge ODF connection, it integrates seamlessly into existing infrastructure. Field technicians value the low sound level and high energy efficiency ratio (EER) during peak load conditions. Its internal pressure relief valve and motor temperature sensors ensure long-term operational stability. This Danfoss Danfoss scroll compressor is the industry standard for maintaining precise climate control in heavy-duty HVACR environments where downtime is not an option.
Key Benefits
- Optimized Efficiency: High EER ratings reduce operational costs in large-scale commercial chillers and rooftop units.
- Durability: Engineered with premium internal components to resist wear during high-cycle operations.
- Simplified Installation: Standardized footprints and sweat connections facilitate faster compressor swap-outs for contractors.
- Vibration Control: Advanced scroll technology minimizes mechanical vibration, protecting the integrity of the refrigerant piping.
Common Questions
What refrigerant types are compatible with the SM185-3QAI?
This specific model is optimized for R22 and is compatible with mineral oil (160P). Ensure the system is thoroughly flushed if retrofitting.
Is the internal motor protection auto-resetting?
Yes, the internal protector breaks the circuit if temperatures exceed safe limits and resets once the motor cools to a safe operating range.
What is the maximum operating pressure for this unit?
The low-side suction pressure is typically rated for 22.6 bar (328 psi), while the high-side discharge can sustain up to 34.3 bar (497 psi).
