Sindelfingen, Germany, 14 March 2018: The compressor manufacturer, Bitzer, is exhibiting its ORBIT+ series of scroll compressors, which exceed the Ecodesign Directive, at Mostra Convegno, Milan, from March 13 to 16, the company said in a Press communiqué.
The communiqué said the models are equipped with a line start permanent magnet motor, which improves the seasonal performance (SEER/IPLV) by up to 8 per cent, while also increasing cooling capacity by up to 5 per cent.
According to Bitzer, users have been able to choose from two families: ORBIT 6 and ORBIT 8. For increased market requirements, such as F-gas Regulation and Ecodesign Directive, Bitzer has developed the new ORBIT+ series with high efficiency motor technology and ORBIT FIT with economiser technology, the communiqué said, adding that both technologies are going to be exhibited for the first time at Mostra Convegno.
The communiqué further said all Bitzer ORBIT models are designed to work with R-410A as well as the most recently introduced low-GWP refrigerants, such as R-454B and R-452B. The communiqué also said the ORBIT+ models are able to operate with a frequency inverter at 35 to 75 Hz, while performing with a low sound level and low oil carry-over rate.
