Case Studies
With a compressor upgrade, a beverage processing company was able to improve production throughput and efficiency. Together with tighter process control, they also experienced energy savings.
A leading food and pharmaceutical distribution company partnered with Copeland to enhance its cold storage warehouse. By installing a low-charge ammonia refrigeration system featuring four Vilter single screw compressors, the company achieved a durable, economical, and safe solution that significantly improves part-load performance and energy efficiency.
A global healthcare leader sought to eliminate HFC refrigerants and adopt eco-friendly, energy-efficient solution. Copeland provided a packaged low-charge ammonia refrigeration system with Vilter single-screw compressors. This compact, efficient system reduced costs, improved safety, and ensured optimal performance.
A world-class venue relies on Vilter reciprocating compressors to maintain world-class ice conditions for elite speedskating. With eight compressors, strategic maintenance, and precise temperature control, the speed skating oval delivers "fast ice" for record-breaking performances.
