Embraco NT2180UV Hermetic Compressor | 1 HP | 2,908 BTU/h (LBP) | R290 Propane | 115V/60Hz

Embraco NT2180UV is a 1 HP hermetic reciprocating compressor (eng. code 842LG02) for low temperature (LBP / freezer) commercial refrigeration. It operates with R290 (propane) refrigerant. Under ASHRAE LBP conditions (-23.3°C / +54.4°C) it provides approximately 2,908 BTU/h (~853 W) of cooling capacity. ⚠️ CAUTION: This model has a 115V / 60Hz (US mains) supply; it does NOT work DIRECTLY with the Turkish 220-240V / 50Hz mains.

R290 Propane, 115V/60Hz Hermetic Reciprocating Compressor (LBP Freezer)

Designed for freezer cabinets, ice machines and low temperature commercial refrigeration systems. R290 (propane) is an A3 flammable refrigerant; due to its 115V/60Hz supply, it is intended for the US market / export / special replacement applications.

Technician Tips

• ⚠️ Voltage: It is 115V/60Hz; do not run it on the Turkish 220-240V/50Hz mains without a transformer. Suitable for US supply / special projects / replacement.
• R290 is flammable (A3): Carry out charging/recovery/brazing in a spark-free, well-ventilated area following flammable refrigerant procedures.
• Select the start capacitor (243-292 µF / 250V) and relay to suit the model; braze the connections under nitrogen.
• It is intended for LBP freezer applications; do not use it in high evaporating temperature systems.
