Bitzer Compressors for Cold Rooms
The compressor is one of the most important components of a refrigeration system. It circulates refrigerant through the refrigeration circuit and works together with the condenser, expansion device and evaporator to provide the required cooling.
We supply compressors suitable for different refrigeration applications, including:
Medium-Temperature Refrigeration
Bitzer compressors can be used in refrigeration systems for applications such as:
- Chillers
- Dairy storage
- Fruit and vegetable cold rooms
- Meat storage
- Supermarket refrigeration
- Food processing
- Commercial refrigerators
- Beverage cooling
Bitzer identifies commercial medium-temperature refrigeration as an important application area, including refrigeration for fruit, vegetables, dairy products and meat.
Low-Temperature Refrigeration
For frozen products and freezer applications, the appropriate compressor must be selected according to the required evaporating temperature and system capacity.
Typical applications include:
- Walk-in freezer rooms
- Frozen food storage
- Blast freezers
- Ice-making systems
- Frozen meat storage
- Fish and seafood freezers
- Bakery freezers
- Industrial freezing systems
Bitzer’s portfolio includes compressor solutions for low-temperature and ultra-low-temperature refrigeration applications.
Air Conditioning Applications
Selected Bitzer compressor ranges are also designed for air-conditioning applications. The ECOLINE range, for example, is specified for refrigeration, process cooling, air conditioning and heat-pump applications.
Bitzer ECOLINE Compressors
The Bitzer ECOLINE range is a major family of semi-hermetic reciprocating compressors.
The range is designed around high efficiency, reliable operation, flexibility in refrigerant selection and a broad application range. Current Bitzer information lists standard ECOLINE compressors across multiple housing sizes and models, with options for different refrigeration requirements.
Depending on the application, ECOLINE compressors can be used for:
- Low-temperature refrigeration
- Medium-temperature refrigeration
- Commercial cold rooms
- Freezer rooms
- Process cooling
- Air conditioning
- Heat pumps
- Food refrigeration systems
Bitzer Semi-Hermetic Compressors
Semi-hermetic compressors are widely used in commercial and industrial refrigeration because the compressor and motor are contained within the same housing.
Bitzer’s reciprocating compressor portfolio includes semi-hermetic ECOLINE compressors, tandem configurations, single-phase versions, two-stage compressors and specialist versions for different refrigerants and applications.
Choosing the Right Bitzer Compressor
Choosing the correct compressor is important for achieving reliable cooling and avoiding premature equipment failure.
We recommend selecting a compressor based on the complete refrigeration system rather than choosing one based only on horsepower.
Important selection factors include:
1. Refrigerant
The compressor must be compatible with the refrigerant used by the refrigeration system.
2. Evaporating Temperature
The required operating temperature has a major effect on compressor selection.
For example, a compressor for a chilled-food cold room will have different requirements from a compressor used for a deep-freezer or blast-freezing application.
3. Cooling Capacity
The required cooling capacity must be calculated based on factors such as:
- Room dimensions
- Product load
- Product entering temperature
- Desired room temperature
- Ambient temperature
- Insulation
- Door opening frequency
- Pull-down requirements
- Evaporator capacity
4. Condensing Temperature
Ambient conditions and condenser performance affect the operating conditions of the compressor.
5. Electrical Supply
The available electrical supply must also be considered, including:
- Voltage
- Phase
- Frequency
- Motor configuration
6. Application
The compressor should be selected according to whether it will be used for:
- Cold rooms
- Freezer rooms
- Blast freezers
- Ice makers
- Supermarket refrigeration
- Process cooling
- Air conditioning
- Industrial refrigeration
Bitzer Compressor Replacement in Kenya
If your existing compressor has failed, replacing it with the correct Bitzer model can restore your refrigeration system and reduce unnecessary downtime.
Before recommending a replacement, we can assess information such as:
