The Masterflux pages have quite a bit of info including diagrams of
the sizes of the parts.  It's not very big, in fact it's about the
size of my original compressor with an extra square box for the
electronics.  It weighs 15 pounds so the Masterflux page says.

As for which one I have... I have the SIERRA06-0982Y3, which is the
150VDC to 300VDC version with the high power compressor.  In hindsight
the SIERRA05-0982Y3 would have been more appropriate.  It's the 100VDC
to 150VDC version with the high power compressor.  It would have been
more tuned to my 144VDC pack and would have allowed me to take full
advantage of the compressor's cooling capacity.  As is, my compressor
is only at about 2/3rd of it's wattage rating... but it cools at least
as well as the stock air conditioner... so it is not a problem worth
my time or money to fix.


TTFN,
