Why this compressor matters
Real-world: on a Friday arvo call-out, a café merchandiser in Melbourne was icing up and struggling to hold temp. Swapping in an NEU-series Embraco meant a neat fit, quick braze, nitrogen purge, fresh drier, weigh-in of charge — and she was back within spec before the rush. That’s fewer call-backs and a fair dinkum happy customer. If you’re comparing options across brands and sizes, you can also browse our Refrigeration category for compatible gear and accessories.
Pro Tip
Always replace the liquid-line filter drier when changing a compressor, and purge with nitrogen while brazing to prevent carbon. Weigh in the charge per nameplate — it’s quicker and avoids over/undercharge drama.
