BT5-8144 Heavy-Duty A/C Compressor – Sanden SD7H15-SHD, 24V, 8-Groove

Description

The BTRAC BT5-8144 A/C compressor is built for farm and off-road HVAC systems that operate under heavy load and long duty cycles. It uses the Sanden SD7H15-SHD platform, which supports high refrigerant flow and dependable cooling in demanding conditions.

Because this compressor uses a direct-mount configuration, it installs cleanly into compatible brackets. In addition, the horizontal tube-O fittings on the MD head simplify hose routing and reduce stress at the connections. As a result, installation is more consistent and long-term reliability improves.

The BT5-8144 operates on a 24-volt electrical system and uses an 8-groove serpentine clutch with a 119 mm diameter. Therefore, it delivers smooth belt engagement and stable power transfer during continuous operation.

This unit ships with a 135 cc factory oil charge and uses PAG 100 oil for R134a refrigerant systems. Furthermore, the long key shaft, clockwise rotation, and diode-protected wiring support dependable operation in severe service applications.
