AACHEN, GERMANY (March 21, 2024) – Copeland, a global provider of sustainable climate solutions, has recently launched a new R-290 variable-speed scroll compressor for commercial heating applications – the Copeland YHV119 variable-speed scroll compressor. This launch expands Copeland’s R-290-compatible product portfolio of compressors for heat pumps and reversible chillers.
The new Copeland YHV119 variable-speed scroll compressor has a heating capacity up to 42kW at maximal speed. Its design is not only compact with a reduced footprint and weight easing system’s design, installation, and maintenance but it is R-290 optimized enabling a low superheat capability of <5k. with its unique scroll axial and radial compliance for increased reliability and efficiency, this compressor perfectly fits commercial heat pumps and is particularly advantageous in transient conditions with reversible systems. the yhv119 variable-speed scroll compressor is the first model in a future series that will be expanded to a larger capacity to serve the various application requirements of the commercial heating sector.>
The shift to low GWP refrigerants, combined with the need to maximize energy efficiency, is driving the HVACR market towards more sustainable choices. This trend is further reinforced by the demand from end users to reduce energy consumption and operating costs.
“Copeland is fully committed to helping customers achieve their decarbonization and regulatory compliance goals,” said Maurizio Boldrini, director of commercial comfort marketing, Europe for Copeland. “Copeland R-290 scroll compressors are safe, reliable, and highly efficient. They are designed to assist industry stakeholders in their transition to lower global warming potential (GWP) refrigerants and meet sustainability goals and environmental regulations in a timely and competitive manner.”
