Zodiac – Compressor Z200 7 kW R32 – R08509

The Zodiac Compressor Z200 7 kW R32 (SKU: R08509) is a genuine OEM replacement compressor designed for Zodiac Z200 series heat pump units. As the core component of the refrigeration circuit, the compressor is responsible for pressurising the refrigerant gas, enabling the heat transfer cycle that allows the heat pump to extract thermal energy from ambient air and transfer it efficiently to your pool water. Replacing a worn or failed compressor with the correct genuine part ensures the heat pump returns to its original performance specification and continues to operate safely and efficiently.

This compressor is engineered to work with the R32 refrigerant, a next-generation low global warming potential (GWP) refrigerant that is increasingly used in modern heat pump technology. R32 offers excellent thermodynamic properties, meaning the heat pump can achieve strong heating output with lower refrigerant charge volumes compared to older refrigerants. The 7 kW output rating corresponds to the heating capacity of the Z200 model, making this compressor the correct replacement for that specific unit. Because compressor replacement requires handling refrigerant circuits, this work must be carried out by a qualified HVAC or refrigeration technician in accordance with local F-gas or refrigerant handling regulations.

Technical characteristics and compatibility

The R08509 compressor is a factory-specified spare part for the Zodiac Z200 heat pump range. It is matched precisely to the refrigerant type (R32), the thermal output class (7 kW), and the mechanical and electrical characteristics of the Z200 platform. Using the correct OEM compressor rather than a generic substitute ensures correct refrigerant pressures, correct electrical load on the unit’s inverter or start circuitry, and long-term reliability. The compressor integrates directly into the existing refrigerant pipework of the Z200 unit and must be installed with appropriate brazing, vacuum, and recharge procedures by a certified technician.

Suitability and application

This replacement compressor is intended exclusively for Zodiac Z200 heat pump units rated at 7 kW using R32 refrigerant. It is not a universal compressor and should only be installed in the specific model for which it is designed. It is suitable for residential pool installations where the Z200 heat pump is the primary or supplementary heating source. If you are unsure whether this compressor matches your specific heat pump model and serial number, consult the Zodiac technical documentation or contact an authorised Zodiac service partner before ordering. Professional installation by a refrigerant-certified technician is mandatory.
