IN LINE WITH GEA’s ongoing product de- velopment program, the company has an- nounced the release of GEA BluQ, the new generation of ammonia chillers, and GEA CompaX, the world’s first semi-hermetic compact screw compressors.
Describing it as a new concept of ammo- nia chiller, the BluQ went on show for the first time at Mostra Convegno in Italy.
Essential parts of the new chiller are the GEA CompaX semi-hermetic driveline and the heat exchanger combination of the well- established Blu chillers.
The 3-in-1 design of GEA CompaX com- bines in one unit a compressor of the GEA Grasso M series with a suction gas-cooled electric motor and a compact oil separator.
GEA CompaX compressors no longer have a shaft seal.
In addition, GEA has succeeded in using copper windings instead of aluminium – even in a semi-hermetic unit operating with ammonia as refrigerant which makes the en- tire system highly efficient. Features include:
Elimination of shaft seal to further minimize leakage risk - Suction gas cooled motor for more reliable motor cooling - Ultra-low am- monia content and very low service expenses.
Designed to reach -5/15°C secondary re- frigerant outlets, the chiller will be a perfect match for all air conditioning as well as light industrial applications.
GEA plans to release a small series of four chiller sizes in late 2018. ✺

THE NEW BENCHMARK IN EFFICIENCY AND DURABILITY.
The HYPERFREEZETM by AUTO MOSSA provides increased protection for freezer environments with its 30mm thick insulated door blade. The thicker insulation prevents ice from forming on the door blade while the new AIR-STRIPTM technology prevents compression of the insulation when rolling up, ensuring thermal performance is maintained over the life of the door.
