Description
Product Summary
The Kramer KWO500E4SEA is a 5 HP extended medium temp scroll water-cooled condensing unit from the Next-Gen WC-Series line rated at 42,680 BTU/h (+25°F SST, 105°F condensing, 85°F entering water, R-448A). It is wired for 208/230V 3-phase 60 Hz power.
As a water-cooled unit it is designed for indoor mechanical rooms where rooftop or outdoor condenser placement is not practical, rejecting heat to a water loop instead of the surrounding air.
Approved refrigerants: R-448A, R-449A and R-404A. Pair it with a matching evaporator sized to the box load; contact HVAC365 for a system match.

Frequently Asked Questions
What refrigerant does the KWO500E4SEA use?
The KWO500E4SEA is approved for R-448A, R-449A and R-404A.
What power supply does the KWO500E4SEA need?
It requires 208/230V 3-phase 60 Hz power. Confirm MCA and MOP on the unit data plate before sizing the circuit.
How much refrigeration capacity does the KWO500E4SEA provide?
It is rated at 42,680 BTU/h at +25°F SST, 105°F condensing, 85°F entering water, R-448A. Actual capacity depends on box temperature, ambient temperature and line length, so size the system to the calculated box load.
Is the KWO500E4SEA for a walk-in cooler or freezer?
It is an extended medium-temperature unit for walk-in coolers and medium-temperature boxes, with a wider suction temperature range than standard medium-temp units.
What evaporator should I pair with it?
Choose an evaporator rated for the same refrigerant and temperature application with capacity matched to the condensing unit at your design suction temperature. HVAC365 can help match the right evaporator to this unit.
