Product Title

Frascold V Series Semi-Hermetic Reciprocating Compressor

Product Description

The Frascold V Series comprises four-cylinder semi-hermetic reciprocating compressors designed for medium- and large-capacity commercial and industrial refrigeration systems.

The available models on this page cover volumetric displacements from 58.5 to 102.9 m³/h at 50 Hz and nominal motor ratings from 15 to 35 HP. Different motor versions are available for low-, medium-, and high-temperature refrigeration applications.

The V Series features pressure-fed oil-pump lubrication, electronic compressor protection, part-winding-start motors, and compatibility with optional capacity-control systems. It is suitable for cold storage facilities, freezer rooms, food-processing systems, condensing units, compressor racks, and other demanding refrigeration applications.

Selection Notice

Cooling capacity must not be determined from compressor displacement or motor power alone. It varies according to refrigerant, evaporating temperature, condensing temperature, suction superheat, liquid subcooling, operating frequency, and system configuration.

Before ordering, please provide:

• Required compressor model or cooling capacity

• Refrigerant

• Evaporating temperature

• Condensing temperature

• Suction superheat

• Local voltage and frequency

• Low-, medium-, or high-temperature application

The final compressor selection should be verified using Frascold selection data.
