The two GEA CompaX models 350 and 400 with a flow volume of 321 and 372 m³/h (at 2,940 rpm) extend the semi-hermetic screw compressor series from larger to medium and also smaller-capacity requirements. They use the natural refrigerant ammonia, a wide, stepless adjustable, variable internal volume ratio and a wide speed range.
In the introductory phase, the new GEA CompaX 350 and 400 models are available as both packages and chillers.. Customers can choose between a single version and a multipackage. The multipackage can optionally be configured by the customer with two, three or four identical CompaX 350 or 400 units in parallel arrangement.
Refrigeration capacities range from approximately 200 to 1,900 kW (NH3, -10/+35 °C).
The existing GEA BluX semi-hermetic chiller series is also extended by the new compressors, GEA BluX. With refrigerant inlet and outlet temperatures of +12/+6 °C and condensing at ambient temperatures (+35 °C), the GEA BluX capacity range extends from approximately 350 kW cooling capacity with 1x CompaX 350 at 3,000 rpm to circa 1,530 kW with 2x CompaX 400 at 6,000 rpm. Larger capacities are covered by the GEA BluX with the existing large CompaX 700 and 900 types.
