Bitzer has optimized its 2-stage reciprocating compressors. All models can now be run with R448A and R449A refrigerants and thermostatic expansion valves.
Bitzer modified all models of its 2-stage reciprocating compressors to enable them to run with R448A and R449A refrigerants.
The EU F-gas Regulation prohibits the use of R404A beyond the year 2020 in stationary areas.
"Alternatives with very low global warming potential are the only long-term refrigerants on the European refrigeration and air conditioning market," says Gianni Parlanti, chief sales and marketing officer at Bitzer. "For many years, our company has been committed to the development of compressors that run with eco-friendly refrigerants and is now benefiting from the knowledge it has amassed."
