A Star in the Industrial Refrigeration Field
The OS.A95 extends the capacity range of the BITZER ammonia screw compressors upwards and may be combined with the existing OS.A series in compounding operation. The intelligent control electronics ensures maximum efficiency at all times and monitors the application limits with the aid of the newly developed power and control slider. The integrated Modbus interface handles the communication with the overriding system controller. Visit RETA Booths 525 & 527.
