Expert insights on commercial HVAC compressors and refrigeration systems.
Not only do grocery stores dedicate more square footage to refrigeration than the average business, but they also utilize plenty of commercial compressors.
Commercial compressors are powering some of the most demanding refrigeration systems around, they are indispensable to both dairy and meat farms.
From the moment the processing of a meat animal is started, the carcass must be stored under precise conditions to ensure maximum safety.
Over the last several years, a number of Copeland commercial compressor models have won the loyalty of dairy producers with their superior performance.
Milk is at the heart of the dairy industry, and Bitzer has gradually become the brand of choice for farmers who want superior performance for their unique needs. While other brands compete in the dairy space, Bitzer stands out – that’s especially true of the Bitzer 6FE-50.
Although Del Monte is not the biggest distributor of bananas, it is one of the smartest. Its entire supply chain has been optimized for a superior product. One of the secrets to Del Monte’s success has to do with the inventive way the company uses compressor technology to ripen bananas.
Today’s meat processing, packing, and transportation all rely on commercial compressors. Without reliable and powerful refrigeration compressors, meat could not travel as far to supermarkets and thousands of pounds of meat would be at risk of spoilage every single day. Compressors make modern dietary variety possible!
Although many compressor companies were founded here in the United States, almost all have sophisticated multinational operations these days. It is a good idea to check into all your options before you select your screw compressor, and one brand you shouldn’t overlook is Japan’s Hitachi.
As winter rolls in, your commercial compressor has a whole new job to do.
A remanufactured compressor is one that has gone through a complete inspection, cleaning, replacement, and testing process to bring it up to the highest performance standards.
Whether you are cooling the air or heating it, everything depends on the efficient operation of the compressor. It does most of the mechanical work involved in pressurizing refrigerant gas and driving it through the rest of the system.
The basics remain the same – the compressor moves refrigerant gas through the system and air is heated or cooled depending on which components it goes to next – but there are many more considerations to bear in mind.
