In commercial refrigeration equipment, the compressor is known as the "heart" of the freezer, and its performance directly affects the refrigeration efficiency, energy consumption and equipment stability. Whether it's supermarket freezers, convenience store freezers, or catering refrigeration equipment, compressors are quietly playing a key role.
How the compressor works
The compressor compresses the refrigerant to change it from a low-temperature and low-pressure gas to a high-temperature and high-pressure gas, and then liquefies it through the condenser, and then evaporates it through the expansion valve to absorb the heat inside the freezer, so as to realize the refrigeration cycle. This process is repeated over and over again to ensure a constant temperature inside the freezer.
Common compressor types
Piston compressor: simple structure, low cost, suitable for small and medium-sized freezers, but the noise and vibration are high during operation.
Scroll compressors: high efficiency, low noise, often used in high-end commercial freezers, longer life.
How to choose the right compressor?
Energy efficiency ratio: High-efficiency compressors reduce long-term operating costs.
Durability: Commercial environments need to choose models that are resistant to wear and tear and high temperatures.
Applicable scenario: Freezers that are frequently switched on and off (such as convenience stores) need to choose a fast-cooling compressor.
Maintenance & Maintenance
Regular cleaning of the condenser, checking the refrigerant pressure, and avoiding overloading can significantly extend the life of the compressor.
The stable operation of commercial freezers is inseparable from high-quality compressors, and the selection of the right model and proper maintenance can ensure the efficient and long-lasting operation of the refrigeration system.
LVNi manufactures a wide range of commercial freezers, using well-known compressors, and is sold directly from the factory.
