For OEMs of self-contained systems, meeting new design and sustainability requirements can present significant challenges. Achieving high energy efficiencies requires the use of large-capacity condenser coils that reduce available merchandising space. The placement of a standard vertical compressor can increase the case size, limit its aesthetic appeal, and create higher noise levels.

At roughly half the height of a vertical scroll, the low-profile Copeland horizontal variable speed scroll compressor solves known design challenges and represents the latest innovation in compliant scroll technology for refrigeration equipment.

Stand-alone commercial refrigeration equipment — such as medium- and low-temperature, reach-ins, walk-ins, food prep tables, and process chillers commonly used in restaurants, convenience stores (C-stores) and small-format food retailers — has been subjected to increasingly stringent energy requirements over the last decade. 

Copeland variable speed reciprocating hermetic compressors are designed to deliver significant efficiency and performance improvements. Our variable solution is comprised of a Copeland variable speed reciprocating hermetic compressor and a variable speed drive with an embedded smart controller.
