Overview

This unit features single or dual compressor(s) and a vertical discharge air-cooled condenser that is suitable for large walk-in coolers and freezers, blast freezers, warehouse applications and spaces where roof mounted condensers are most practical. Using high efficiency compressors and utilizing the THERMOSPAN™ condenser core design, the unit meets all application needs from 6 to 40 HP (high/medium temperature) and 7.5 to 44 HP (low temperature).

Our KM-line of condensing units meet or exceed the new “AWEF” requirements for condensing units. Use this guide which collects all of the AWEF numbers for compliant equipment: https://docs.k-rp.com/awef/kr_awef_quick_reference.pdf

Features/Options

Certification:
Features:
  • Compatible with Low GWP Refrigerants
  • Designed for use with a wide variety of refrigerants
  • Energy efficient compressors with POE. Several Options to choose from: Copeland Discus, Bitzer reciprocating.
  • Single, Dual and parallel-piped (optional) compressor configurations available.
  • ThermospanTM condenser core design eliminates tube sheet leaks and provides reliable operation.
