Suction gas cooled aluminum reciprocating compressors, based on the classic HG compressor series in grey cast iron, are specially designed for mobile refrigeration applications due to their lightweight construction. They are approx. 40% lighter and have a reduced overall height, making them particularly suitable for roof mounting on vehicles. Together with the robust K-design valve plate, which was specially developed for bus air conditioning, they are the first choice for electric applications. With the special oil management, the mobile aluminum compressors are also suitable for large inclination angles. Incidentally, the K valve plate developed by Danfoss BOCK has already been used successfully hundreds of thousands of times in our vehicle compressors.
