Why the Right Compressor Matters
Advances in compressor technology have greatly enhanced the reliability and efficiency of refrigeration systems. However, with increasing governmental focus on environmental sustainability, selecting a compressor that complies with legislation surrounding safer, low-GWP refrigerants is more important than ever. The right compressor not only ensures compliance but also optimises energy efficiency, reducing both operational costs and environmental impact.
Choosing the Correct Compressor can Have a Profound Effect On:
- Adhering to environmental regulations.
- Improving energy efficiency and system reliability.
- Reducing energy consumption and running costs across your business.
Key Factors When Choosing a Refrigeration Compressor
The first step in selecting a commercial refrigeration compressor is to evaluate the refrigeration capacity required for your application. Different compressor types, reciprocating, rotary, or scroll all operate within specific ranges, which may influence your options.
Additionally, factors such as:
- Refrigerant compatibility (including low-GWP options).
- Nominal cooling specifications (e.g., capacity, input power, condensing temperature, and evaporative temperature).
- Noise levels and energy efficiency metrics
All these elements play a vital role in determining the best compressor for your system.
At Axair Refrigeration, our team of experienced refrigeration experts will analyse your system requirements, operating conditions, and project budget to recommend the most suitable hermetic compressor. We specialise in helping businesses to design and integrate compressors that meet their unique needs while ensuring optimal performance and cost-efficiency.
Leading the Way with Variable Speed Compressors
Our variable speed compressors are a game-changer in energy efficiency. By electronically adjusting compressor speed to match the precise cooling needs of your system, these units:
- Improve the Coefficient of Performance (COP) by up to 50%.
- Provide greater cooling output per unit of electricity used.
- Significantly reduce energy consumption and operating costs.
In addition to lowering costs, choosing an energy-efficient compressor supports environmental goals by reducing your business's carbon footprint. With global initiatives to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050, Axair Refrigeration is committed to offering products that contribute to a sustainable future.
