A COMPLETELY new range of semi-hermetic reciprocating compressors capable of running with a number of different refrigerants, is set to make its UK debut on the Emerson Climate Technologies stand at the ACR Show.
The new Stream provides the industry with a portfolio of technologies: a range of 4 and 6 cylinder compressors for today's most commonly found HFC refrigerants, a range of Digital semi-hermetic compressors for simple continuous capacity modulation as well as a range designed for CO2 transcritical applications. All models are fitted with CoreSense Diagnostics that provides advanced compressor protection and diagnostics.


Emerson's engineers combined existing design techniques with new advanced technologies to create 16 models for HFC refrigerants, eight of them with Digital continuous modulation capabilities. They cover cooling capacities from 33 to 80kW medium temperature, 11 to 28kW low temperature with R404A and can be used also with R134a as well as R407A/C while being the most efficient compressors available.

Having the choice between several refrigerants for the same compressor without any compromise on performance has been made possible by the Emerson's Discus valve plate technology. Compared to other semi-hermetic reciprocating compressors, this technology allows 10% better performance with R404A.

The new Stream range is just one of a host of new ground-breaking air conditioning and refrigeration technologies awaiting visitors to the ACR Show, which runs at the NEC, Birmingham, from March 13-15. To register visit www.acrshow.co.uk
