High pressure ammonia reciprocating compressors for heat pumps
Optimize your heat pump applications with high-pressure compressors that deliver reliable performance, ensuring energy efficiency and maximum reliability in industrial-scale operations.
The GEA Grasso V HP series from GEA offers high-pressure ammonia reciprocating compressor packages designed for demanding industrial applications such as food and beverage processing, dairy production, and industrial cleaning. With a robust design pressure of up to 39 bar, these compressors are optimized for heat pump applications, efficiently delivering hot water up to 70°C. This makes them ideal for uses in processed meats, chilled beverages, and more.
The V HP series stands out with its state-of-the-art GEA Omni Control Panel, supporting sophisticated control options and advanced monitoring with the Continuous Status Analysis (CSA) function. The inclusion of an external flanged oil pump ensures pre-lubrication, maximizing reliability during both full and partial loads.
Leveraging zero-GWP ammonia refrigerant, these systems are eco-friendly, reducing environmental impact. Available in models like GEA Grasso V 300HP to 600HP, they cater to varied heating capacities and operational needs. Their heavy-duty power drive train further enhances durability, while the highest Coefficient of Performance (COP) underscores their energy efficiency. Designed for seamless integration in continuous operations, these packages support automation with features accommodating Industry 4.0 standards, ensuring you stay ahead in modern industrial processing.
