Model Designation Of The Compressor - mycom 1612LSC series Instruction Manual

2 Compressor Specifications and Structure
2.1 Overview of the
Screw Compressor 1612LSC Speed Increaser Type
The 1612LSC is a compound screw compressor integrating two stages of compressor
into a single body. The 1612LSC has been developed based on the LSC model of the 1612C Series
compressors —our most popular and long-selling products boasting the delivery of over 1000 units
worldwide since they were first put on the market— by adding the speed increaser gear system to
provide it with optimum performance for applications to ultra-cold and rapid freezing storage systems in
bonito and tuna fisheries.
Generally, screw compressors use oil injection to keep discharge temperature low during operation
without loss of volumetric efficiency even at high compression ratios, with singles-stage usage possible
even at evaporative temperatures near −40 °C.
However, for low-temperature regular usage, to improve KW/RT (the ratio of power consumption versus
cooling ability), a 2-stage compression method is used. To use standard-type screw compressors in a
2-stage compression method, at least two screw compressors must be combined so that there is a
high-stage and a low-stage, which requires multiple sets of machinery, power, and utilities, etc. to be
installed.
This 2-stage screw compressor combines these two units into one compound machine.

Model Designation of the Compressor

This manual describes the 1612LSC-*B*-52, -62, -53, -63, and -54 speed increaser type models.
The meaning of the type designation stamped on the nameplate of the compressor MODEL column is
as follows.
