Bitzer adds hydrocarbon condensing units

GERMANY: The LHE PRO series is expanding Bitzer’s portfolio of air-cooled LHE condensing units for medium and low temperature applications.

Now available for the “natural” refrigerants R290, R1270 (propene) and R600a. Equipped with the specially optimised Ecoline PRO compressors, they enable medium and low temperature applications with an evaporation temperature of –40°C to +10°C and ambient temperatures of more than 43°C. 

All the compressor’s components and its oil management have been adjusted to fulfil the requirements of these refrigerants. Flexible solutions with additional factory mounted components in accordance with system requirements are possible.

The condensing units are available in eleven construction sizes and two motor versions. At present, displacements of 4m3/h to 13.4m3/h are available for R290, which corresponds to cooling capacities of 1.74kW to 5.71kW for medium temperature application and 0.69kW to 1.78kW for low temperature application (*operating conditions: tamb = +32°C, t0 = -10°C for medium temperature application and t0 = –35°C for low temperature application, each at 50 Hz).
