The SLV will also make life easier for shop owners who plan for – and aim to comply with – future refrigerant legal requirements. As one of the only compressors in its category, the SLV is designed to work with the environmentally friendly R290a propane refrigerant as well as the more traditional commercial refrigerants currently in use.
But increased environmental friendliness is not the only feature offered by the new compressor. It is designed with a number of built-in options for data-logging, thereby enabling shop owners to comply with the HACCP standard on food quality. And if more detailed logging options are required, the SLV can easily be connected to the Danfoss ADAP-KOOL® Next Generation store control solution.
The SLV also offers a greatly reduced noise-level. The reason is that the variable speed control keeps the compressor operating at a lower average speed level.
Further benefits include failure detection, thermostat control, and a compact design with integrated electronic controls that make it easy to integrate and service in existing systems. It also features motor protection for longer product life-time and a new motor design securing high cooling capacity in ambient temperatures up to +45 °C.
The SLV compressor is produced at Danfoss Compressors GmbH in Flensburg, Germany.
