    turbocor



    hey guys,

    i have spoken to an engineer of Geveke , and he was interested in my opinion of the Turbocor compressor.

    i told him i never hurt any complains yet,but they where also to young in existence and operations. they are about 3 years on the market now. i only have red some articles about them, it looks good but that dont mean anything. Is there anyone ho had the chance of seeing them or worked on them ??

    more info would be nice, thnx

    Ice

    As you say these compressors have been around in the UK and Europe for 3 years or so. I have worked on chillers totalling about 20 compressors in all across 5 sites. In general the compressors have been good with clients very happy with the energy savings. There have been some teething problems regarding spikes on the electronics which have been addressed with site retrofits with parts and detailed instructions from Danfoss Turbocor. Condensation appeared to be the main problem. 2 compressors have been replaced due to inverter and motor failure. Both were i believe due to external influences eg failed open exv.
