Application Guidelines Danfoss scroll compression principle In a Danfoss SM / SY / SZ scroll compressor, the compression is performed by two scroll elements located in the upper part of the compressor. Suction gas enters the compressor at the suction connection.
Application Guidelines Features In addition to the existing SM range compressors • Part protection and assembly reduces internal previously available, Danfoss is completing its leaks and increases life durability. range with 3 compressors. • Improved part isolation reduces greatly The new SM112-124 and SM/SZ147 compressors acoustic levels.
