Features and Benefits

Flexibility Icon

Application Flexibility

The low-profile compact footprint and lightweight design allows for a more compact equipment machine compartment.
Low Sound Icon

Low sound level and low vibration

The innovative scroll compressor design generates lower dBA for a more pleasant environment. Lower compression torque and discharge pulse minimizes cabinet vibration and pulsations, reducing the potential for damage to piping and other system components.
High Reliability Icon

High reliability and superior quality

The high-side pressure design eliminates the need for a thrust bearing and tip seals, reducing friction and improving alignment of the scroll set. This results in reduced wear plus improved oil circulation rates and the elimination of oil foaming.

High Efficiency Icon

High efficiency thanks to advanced technology

The unique high-side pressure design with direct suction delivers less compression losses and improved volumetric efficiency.
Innovation Icon
