Dorin's compressor offers high refrigeration capacities and Coefficient of Performance (COP). Operating in trans-critical conditions, the semi-hermetic piston type is suitable for commercial refrigeration and heat pump systems. It combines compact dimensions with an enhanced bearing and valve plate design, featuring also a generously dimensioned shaft support.
The CO2 compressor has been designed using the most advanced calculation methods, such as FEM analysis. It features low pressure pulsation levels and it is approved under the EU Pressure Equipment Directive to work with a PS value of 163 bar and a Pss value of 100 bar. Dorin decided to develop a completely new compressor platform to meet all challenges posed by the refrigerant CO2.

*PS is the maximum allowable pressure on the high pressure side of the compressor, according to the definition given in EN 12900.
**Pss is the maximum standstill pressure, e.g. the maximum pressure the compressor crankcase is able to withstand during standstill conditions, according to EN 12900.
