Secop’s SLVE18CN energy-optimized 18 cc propane variable-speed compressor is an ideal choice for food retail, food storage, and other commercial applications. It is suitable for both LBP and MBP applications.
The compressor delivers more than 2 kW of cooling capacity and achieves a COP of up to 2.25 (ASHRAE MBP). It is capable of continuous operation across an evaporating temperature range from –45 to +10 °C. Energy savings of up to 40% compared to a fixed-speed R404A compressor are possible. Even savings of up to 50% are possible when a complete system is optimized and upgraded with an SLVE18CN and its controller.
The compressor is controlled by the new °CCD MP (Multipurpose) controller, which enables speed control via Adaptive Energy Optimization (AEO), frequency signal, or serial communication. This multi-voltage controller is compatible with all global voltages and frequencies and complies with US GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) requirements. The MP controller offers enhanced robustness and safety, including a fire-proof IP54 housing, PCB coating, galvanically isolated I/Os, and software safety layers. In addition, the intelligent variable-speed controller provides automatic input detection, two additional relay outputs for case control, and two-speed defrost control.
