Variable
Speed Compressors
Refrigeration compressors are normally selected to correspond with maximum expected loads. Since loads vary throughout the day and throughout the year, the compressor designed for maximum load turns out to be oversized during long stretches.

Murray Gibson Services Ltd are able to provide scroll compressors, reciprocating compressors and screw compressors from several manufacturers and repair services. Condensing units for commercial refrigeration and air conditioning applications.
With Maneurop compressors, motor rotation speed may be varied from 1800 to 5400 rpm. Thanks to speed increase, the selection of a variable-speed compressor can be scaled back several sizes smaller than a comparable compressor running at fixed speed. The nominal compressor capacity can then be easily aligned with the nominal system heat load. Speed reduction provides the opportunity, during periods of low system load for the compressor capacity to be decreased, consequently reducing power consumption.
