Screw compressors for hydrocarbons are designed for safe and efficient operation in systems using natural refrigerants such as propane (R290), propene (R1270) and isobutane (R600a). They are halogen-free and are considered future-proof refrigerants with very low GWP. Thanks to their excellent thermodynamic properties, they are suitable for numerous applications.

BITZER screw compressors for hydrocarbons contribute to efficient and safe operation. Optimised series are available for process cooling and heat pumps. Due to enhanced tightness in accordance with EN1127-1, no ATEX zone needs to be assumed around the component. Wide application limits enable a high degree of flexibility, including in:

• Process cooling
• Air conditioning
• Data center cooling
• Heat pumps

Displacement at 50 Hz:

• Semi-hermetic screw compressors: 192 to 535 m³/h
• Compact screw compressors: 137 to 1120 m³/h
