DESCRIPTION OF THE UNIT
The RCV series includes air-cooled or water-cooled (optional)units built on the basis of the single-block
principle. They consist of:
4
OPERATION
RCV single blocks are compression units where cold is produced by vaporizing a liquid refrigerant (HFC
type) at low pressure in a heat exchanger (evaporator). The resulting vapour is brought again into the
liquid state by mechanical compression at a higher pressure, followed by cooling in another heat exchanger
(condenser).
The compressor is hermetic, with reciprocating motion, supplied with single-phase or three-phase power.
5
HANDLING
The unit can be handled by lifting and transport means.
WARNING
Make sure that no one is in transit in the operating area of the lifting/transport
means to prevent any possible accidents to people.
If the unit is in a wooden case or crate, sling the packing properly before
handling it.
Lifting speed shall be such as not to make the packed unit oscillate dangerously
and possibly fall.
