Superior Energy Efficiency and Refrigeration Performance

Variable capacity modulation combined with smart controls delivers energy and performance improvements that far exceed fixed capacity models.

ASVF112EU_drive
Integrated Solution

Combines Copeland variable speed reciprocating hermetic compressor and variable speed (VS) drive with an embedded smart controller.

Sustainability
By using the refrigerant R-290 with a low global warming potential (GWP) of 3, operators can meet the most stringent refrigerant regulations.
Energy Savings

Increases system energy efficiency by 13% compared to a high-efficiency, fixed speed, R-290 compressor. The embedded drives and controls help reduce compressor cycling by 90%.

Improved Reliability
Provides protection and proactive prevention of compressor failure; the ability to handle voltage fluctuations; and a reduction in start/stops.
Performance Gains
Variable capacity modulation delivers faster temperature pull-downs, more precise temperature holding, and less wear on system components.
Operational Advantages
SKU reduction simplifies servicing while delivering a wide range of application versatility.
