Will highlight Bock HG44e semi-hermetic range at HVACR trade fair in Milan

GEA has announced that it will present various compressor solutions for a range of applications at the Mostra Convegno Expocomfort (MCE) 2014, the HVACR trade fair in Milan, being held from March 18 to 21.

The highlight at this year’s GEA stand (A21 B22 at Hall 24) will be the new semi-hermetic compressor range GEA Bock HG44e, the announcement revealed. These new four-cylinder compressors, the manufacturer claimed, offer a considerably greater coefficient of performance (COP), larger displacement stages, and more compact dimensions than the previous models from the HG4 range. With four model sizes, the compressors enable closely matched coverage of a range of maximum displacements from 41.3 m³/h to 67.0 m³/h, and are ideally suited for supermarket applications, it added.

GEA said that it would also be presenting its new eight-cylinder GEA Bock HG88e compressor as well as the GEA Plusbox, which is a complete outdoor condensing unit with modular design for application for cold and freezing rooms, convenience stores and filling-station shops, the company highlighted.

According to GEA, in line with the current efforts to use natural refrigerants, it will showcase subcritical and transcritical CO2 compressors, including an HC-compressor, for use with hydrocarbons. The stand will also reportedly feature a GEA Bock ATEX compressor, especially designed for explosion-risk environments.
