About Carrier Compressors

Carrier has built refrigeration and air-conditioning compressors for nearly a century and its compressor manufacturing division – Carlyle Compressor Company remains one of the most widely installed names in commercial and industrial refrigeration. The Carrier 5H and 5F open-drive reciprocating compressors, introduced decades ago, are still in service worldwide due to their rugged cast-iron construction and rebuildability. The Carlyle 06E and 06D semi-hermetic reciprocating compressors power everything from supermarket refrigeration racks to rooftop air conditioning and transit HVAC systems.

Because these platforms have such long service lives, demand for quality replacement parts remains strong and that’s where CAP HVAC comes in. Whether you’re rebuilding a 5H80 for a cold storage facility or replacing a valve plate on an 06D condensing unit, we supply the parts you need at competitive prices, without OEM lead times.

Carrier & Carlyle Model Families

5H Series – Open-Drive Reciprocating

Carrier’s flagship open-drive reciprocating compressor, driven by an external motor via direct coupling or belt drive. Spanning 4-cylinder (5H40, 5H46) through 6-cylinder (5H60, 5H66), 8-cylinder (5H80, 5H86) and 12-/16-cylinder frames (5H120, 5H126) roughly 15 to 150 HP. Renowned for durability and full rebuildability, found in industrial refrigeration, cold storage, food and beverage processing, marine refrigeration and process cooling, commonly on R-22, R-134a and R-404A. Common parts: valve plates, gaskets, pistons, connecting rods, bearings, crankshafts, shaft seals, unloaders, oil pumps, safety heads, impellers, oil screens, suction strainers and control valve assemblies.

5F Series – Open-Drive Reciprocating

It shares the 5H’s proven design in a smaller frame 2-, 3-, 4- and 6-cylinder configurations (5F20, 5F30, 5F40, 5F60), roughly 5 to 50 HP. Common in smaller commercial and industrial refrigeration, marine duty and laboratory/environmental test chambers. Common parts: valve plates, gaskets, pistons, rods, bearings, shaft seals, unloaders, oil pump components.

06E Series – Semi-Hermetic Reciprocating

Carlyle’s larger semi-hermetic compressor: 6-cylinder, nominal 25-40 HP (roughly 20-40 tons in A/C duty). Widely installed in packaged rooftop units, air- and water-cooled chillers and supermarket refrigeration racks – its serviceable design makes it a frequent candidate for field rebuilds. Common parts: valve plates, gaskets, pistons, connecting rods, bearings, crankshafts, unloader valves, terminal plates, oil pumps, motor parts.

06D Series – Semi-Hermetic Reciprocating

Carlyle’s compact semi-hermetic compressor, roughly 2-15 HP across 2-, 4- and 6-cylinder configurations. One of the most widely used compressors in commercial refrigeration, walk-in coolers and freezers, condensing units, supermarket systems and the standard platform in transit HVAC, cooling bus and rail fleets worldwide. Common parts: valve plates, gaskets, pistons, rods, bearings, shaft seals, terminal assemblies, oil pumps, service kits.
