Emerson Climate Technologies GmbH, one of the world’s leading providers of heating, ventilation, air conditioning and refrigeration solutions for residential, industrial and commercial applications has joined ammonia21.com as a Silver Partner to present Vilter ammonia single screw compressors.

The Emerson Climate Technologies Group combines best-in-class technology with proven engineering, design, distribution, educational and monitoring services to provide customized, integrated climate control solutions for customers worldwide. Vilter’s contributions to the new refrigeration machinery throughout its 141-year history span throughout the globe.

Compressors by Vilter

Vilter Manufacturing, a business of Emerson Climate Technologies, provides a complete line of industrial refrigeration compressors, including reciprocating and single screw for use with ammonia.

Single screw compressors

The heart of the refrigeration system is the compressor. The Single Screw compressors for cooling applications consist of the VSM and VSS series. They are recognized on the market because of their efficiency, reliability, and flexibility.

For example, the Glacier “total inline freezing and/or chilling solution” offered by UK based Star Refrigeration was built around the Vilter single rotor screw compressor and was highly commended at the 2011 RAC Cooling Industry Awards in the Refrigerant Product of the Year category.

Vilter has also launched the Single Screw VSSH Series for high-pressureheat pump application. These screw compressor units, with frames constructed of cast steel, are capable of operating with ammonia at extremely high condensing temperatures. The heat pump compressors provide a cost effective solution to harnessing and converting heat of rejection to high grade hot water, up to 90°C.

A single screw compressor is a rotary, positive displacement compressor, which incorporates a main screw and two gaterotors. Compression of the gas is accomplished by the engagement of the two gaterotors with the helical grooves in the main screw. The drive shaft imparts rotary motion to the main screw, which in turn drives the intermeshed gaterotors.

Emerson Climate Technologies is committed to protecting the environment and providing solutions that decrease energy consumption, improve human comfort, safeguard food and protect the environment.

“For all these reasons, the natural refrigerants will play a major role on the market for cooling and heating applications. Because of its continuous and efficient promotion of ammonia, joining Ammonia21.com was the natural step for Emerson Climate Technologies, through Vilter products, to demonstrate our commitment in the use of natural refrigerants” says Achim Frommann, in charge of Media, Communication & Relations at Emerson.
