International. The Component Solutions division of LG Electronics USA Inc. and Heatcraft Refrigeration Products announced a sourcing agreement to manufacture new Heatcraft condensing units with LG refrigeration scroll compressors.
The companies explained that LG's new scroll compressor for commercial refrigeration will come factory installed on medium temperature models of the air-cooled condensing unit from 1.5 to 5 HP.
"LG's relationship with Heatcraft is a testament to the extensive research and innovative designs developed by our compressor engineers," said Kwangho Kim, president of LG Electronics Component Solutions.
LG's displacement compressor for commercial refrigeration features a highly calibrated vacuum compression prevention device and a more sensitive and sensitive discharge sheet valve, designed for harsh operating conditions within refrigeration applications.
This medium temperature model is designed for commercial refrigeration applications on foot, such as supermarkets, convenience stores, restaurants and cold stores.
"As the only commercial refrigeration manufacturer to offer two scroll compressor manufacturer options for medium-temperature condensing units from 1-1/2 to 5 HP, Heatcraft is continually looking for ways to improve our ability to meet our customers' needs as they move from airtight to scroll compressors to comply with the epa's new SNAP rules, as well as future DOE regulations," said Larry Golen, vice president and general manager of Heatcraft Refrigeration Products. "We are committed to creating proactive solutions for our customers as their business needs evolve due to industry regulations and emerging market trends."
LG's medium temperature models of the Heatcraft condensing unit are designed to meet all new EPA SNAP regulations and are compatible with multiple refrigerants, including R-404A, R-407A/C, R-448A, and R-449A.
