Frequency-regulated compressors in demand

Bitzer says Chillventa 2012 confirms customers take life-cycle costs into account

Bitzer, manufacturer of refrigerant compressors, in a post-Chillventa news release has reported positive results this year. In its third year at the Nuremberg trade show, the company said that it made a 3-D presentation of the compressors at its stand, and added that Lodam, its subsidiary company, was also featured for the first time in its own section of the trade fair stand and enjoyed a high volume of visitors as well.

The company claimed that the new products that attracted the most attention were the New Ecoline reciprocating compressor range, the innovative CSV range, the LE condensing units, and the ORBIT 6 scroll compressor series, which it said have high energy efficiency, a wide range of applications, and low life-cycle costs.

“Discussion at Chillventa has again confirmed that our customers are increasingly basing their investment decisions on the life-cycle costs of a system, demonstrating that we’re on the right path with our energy-efficient innovations such as the new Ecoline reciprocating compressors and CSV frequency-regulated screw compressors,” said Michael Bauer, Bitzer’s Chief Sales and Marketing Officer. “We received a great deal of positive feedback and now have numerous suggestions to consider.”
