OPEN compressors SERIES - LT

Frascold’s Open LT Series of screw compressors came about after many hours of research and development from our gifted design engineers. The result is a high-performing, reliable, and energy-efficient screw compressor that’s perfectly suited for applications at low temperatures with high compression ratios.

The Open LT Series screw compressors have specialized rigid bearings to provide incredibly accurate operation and excellent resistance to radial and axial loads, even with the use of ammonia. This innovative configuration within the compressors also protects the screws from any counter rotation which can otherwise occur when a system is shutting down.

With the Open LT Series, you’ll get a broad range of cooling capacities for a diverse range of different applications. Marine and industrial refrigeration, process cooling, heat pumps, and air conditioning are some of the many areas where these compressors prove their worth every day. Every Open LT Series compressor has been designed to ensure high-performance operation with the use of ammonia, hydrocarbons, traditional HFCs, and low GWP refrigerants.

The high-quality mechanical seal you’ll find on these Frascold open screw compressors provides for an extremely quiet, vibration-free operation that’s perfectly compatible with any type of refrigerant chosen and under a number of different working conditions. The extremely quiet operation is made even more so due to special bearings mounted on each compressor, which help increase the load coefficient and maintain a long operational life.

By design, these compact units provide an easy and straightforward installation and easier maintenance down the road—even in small spaces. The combination in parallel of the compressors along with a single oil separator adds to the stress-free installation and future maintenance.
