2. PRODUCT INTRODUCTION
Embraco offers a full range of hermetic reciprocating compressors for refrigeration from fractional
horse power (hp) up to 1.5hp with a long experience in developing innovative solutions for commercial
and professional refrigeration.
With the new range of scroll compressors for refrigeration Embraco complete the product range for
commercial and professional applications with a range of scroll compressors from 2hp up to 13hp
working with R404A, R452A, R449A, R448A and R134a, R513A (MBP only).
By visualizing the whole cycle of a scroll mechanism, we can notice that 3 phases: suction, compression
and discharge are simultaneously made in a continuous movement.
It represents numbers of advantages:
• Less parts in movement versus other compressor technologies; the compression system is
composed by only the mobile and the fix scroll.
• There is no dead space, the volumetric efficiency is close to 1.
• The absence of re-expansion loss makes that there is no reduction of the isentropic efficiency.
• The perfect suction system symmetry by two points diametrically opposed and discharge by
the center of spirals assure a functioning with much lower pulsations and noise.
