Semi-hermetic ammonia screw compressor
Experience minimal leakage and enhanced efficiency in ammonia-based cooling systems with advanced semi-hermetic screw compressors, ideal for seamless integration into refrigeration and air conditioning applications.
Compresses Ammonia for Efficient Cooling Solutions
The GEA CompaX 350 and 400 from GEA Heating & Refrigeration Technologies are semi-hermetic ammonia screw compressors that revolutionize cooling efficiency. Designed to reduce leakage risks by eliminating the need for a shaft seal, these compressors ensure high safety and reliability across industrial cooling applications. Featuring a variable speed range up to 6,000 rpm, the CompaX models integrate seamlessly into existing systems, making them ideal for refrigeration, air conditioning, and food processing industries. With flow volumes of 321 and 372 m³/h respectively, they support both small and large capacity requirements, delivering energy-efficient performance by leveraging ammonia’s superior refrigerant properties. GEA CompaX compressors are made with robust materials to handle rigorous conditions, and their low vibration and sound levels make them suitable for use near populated areas. Configuration support is available through GEA RT Select, ensuring optimal equipment selection for your plant’s specific needs.
