Refrigeration Compressor
Item Name Code (INC) 29304
![]() |
A centrifugal, reciprocating, or rotary compressor designed to compress refrigerant gas(es) from an initial intake pressure to a final discharge pressure. It is designed to be driven by an independent power source, such as an electric motor, gasoline or diesel engine, or the like. It does not include the prime mover, condenser(s), external filter-drivers, and the like. It may include various peripheral components such as drive pulley, flexible coupling, and the like.
Additional Information for Refrigeration Compressor
Refrigeration compressors are a type of mechanical device used in refrigeration and air conditioning systems. They are part of the supply class "Refrigeration And Air Conditioning Components" in the supply group "Refrigeration, Air Conditioning, And Air Circulating Equipment."
The main function of a refrigeration compressor is to compress refrigerant gas, which increases its pressure and temperature. This compressed gas is then circulated through the refrigeration system, where it releases heat and cools down, allowing for the cooling of the desired space or object.
There are different types of refrigeration compressors, including reciprocating compressors, rotary compressors, scroll compressors, and centrifugal compressors. Each type has its own advantages and is suitable for different applications based on factors such as capacity, efficiency, and noise level.
Refrigeration compressors are essential components in refrigeration and air conditioning systems, as they play a crucial role in the cooling process. They are typically powered by an electric motor and are designed to provide reliable and efficient operation.
In summary, refrigeration compressors are mechanical devices used in refrigeration and air conditioning systems to compress refrigerant gas, allowing for the cooling of a space or object. They are part of the supply class "Refrigeration And Air Conditioning Components" in the supply group "Refrigeration, Air Conditioning, And Air Circulating Equipment."
