Refrigeration Compressors
Commercial refrigeration compressors are used across a wide range of cooling applications including cold rooms, freezer rooms, supermarket refrigeration, process cooling systems, and industrial refrigeration installations. ACES supports refrigeration engineers, contractors, facilities management companies, and end users across the UK with refrigeration compressor sourcing, technical support, and replacement compressor solutions for commercial and industrial refrigeration systems.
We can assist with sourcing brand new refrigeration compressors as well as remanufactured refrigeration compressors tailored to your specific requirements. From semi-hermetic reciprocating compressors through to screw refrigeration compressors for industrial cooling applications, our team supports a wide range of refrigeration systems and refrigerants.
Refrigeration Compressor Types
As the compressor is at the heart of any refrigeration system, selecting the correct refrigeration compressor is essential for efficient and reliable operation. Different refrigeration applications require different compressor technologies depending on the system design, refrigerant, cooling capacity, and operating conditions. Here at ACES, we support a wide range of refrigeration systems and applications, specialising in multiple refrigeration compressor types for commercial and industrial cooling systems.
Semi-Hermetic Refrigeration Compressors
Semi-hermetic refrigeration compressors are widely used within cold rooms, freezer rooms, supermarket refrigeration systems, and industrial cooling applications where long-term reliability, serviceability, and maintenance capability are important. Due to their bolted construction, semi-hermetic compressors are suitable for overhaul and remanufacturing, making them a dependable and cost-effective solution for many refrigeration systems.
Whether requiring semi-hermetic reciprocating compressors or semi-hermetic screw compressors, ACES specialises in the remanufacturing and overhaul of a wide range of semi-hermetic refrigeration compressors.
Screw Refrigeration Compressors
Screw refrigeration compressors operate using twin rotating screw rotors which provide smooth and continuous refrigerant compression. Their ability to handle higher cooling capacities and long operating hours makes them particularly suitable for industrial refrigeration systems, process cooling applications, and large commercial cooling installations.
ACES supports customers with both brand new and remanufactured screw refrigeration compressors for commercial and industrial refrigeration applications.
Reciprocating Refrigeration Compressors
Reciprocating compressors operate using pistons to compress refrigerant within cylinders, making them a durable and widely used solution for commercial refrigeration systems. They are commonly found within cold storage facilities, freezer rooms, supermarket refrigeration systems, and medium to low temperature refrigeration applications.
ACES supports customers with both new and remanufactured reciprocating refrigeration compressors for a wide range of refrigeration and industrial cooling applications.
Scroll Refrigeration Compressors
Scroll compressors operate using two interlocking spiral elements which compress refrigerant efficiently with minimal vibration and noise. Due to their compact design, energy efficiency, and reliable operation, scroll refrigeration compressors are widely used within chillers, refrigeration systems, and process cooling applications.
ACES supports customers with replacement and brand new scroll refrigeration compressors for a wide range of commercial refrigeration and HVAC systems.
Industrial Refrigeration Compressors
Industrial refrigeration systems require reliable compressor solutions capable of operating continuously within demanding environments. Industrial refrigeration compressors are commonly used within food manufacturing facilities, pharmaceutical cooling systems, distribution warehouses, process cooling systems, and large-scale refrigeration plants where cooling performance and operational reliability are critical.
