Bitzer VariPack adds IP55/IP66 enclosures

GERMANY: Bitzer has added models with IP55 and IP66 enclosure classes to its range of VariPack frequency inverters. 

Varipack frequency inverters are designed for safe and easy capacity control and have been specially adapted for refrigeration and for the operation of Bitzer refrigeration compressors. 

The frequency inverters are suitable for refrigeration and air conditioning systems as well as heat pumps and can be combined with single compressors and compound systems alike. After intuitive commissioning, the frequency inverters take over the control functions of the refrigeration system. They can be mounted in a switch cabinet (IP20) or outside of the switch cabinet thanks to the higher IP55/66 enclosure class.
