Product catalog summary
Overview: The document details the technical specifications and features of the VSK series compact hermetic screw compressors by BITZER Kühlmaschinenbau GmbH. These compressors are designed for air conditioning units, liquid chillers, and railway carriage air conditioning, focusing on space-saving design and ease of installation.
Key Features:
  • Hermetically sealed, simple, and robust construction.
  • Low weight and compact size for confined installations.
  • Low noise and vibration levels, optimized for refrigerant R134a.
  • Integrated oil separator and filter, with built-in check and pressure relief valves.
  • Suction gas cooled motor with direct drive, eliminating gears.
  • Motor protection includes thermal PTC and phase sequence monitoring.
  • High efficiency due to optimized rotor profile and precise machining.
  • Stepless capacity control via variable speed (frequency converter) and optional integrated mechanical regulator.
  • Terminal box rated IP66 (IP65 for VSK31 models).
Design Safety: The compressors comply with the EC Pressure Equipment Directive 97/23/EC, with a maximum allowable pressure of 25 bar.
Capacity Control and Start Unloading: The VSK41 series features a new regulating system for maintaining compressor housing stability and efficiency. A hydraulically activated piston adjusts the rotor profile length to control capacity, with electrical control via solenoid valves.
Application Limits: Performance data is based on 10 K suction gas superheat and 5 K liquid subcooling, with specific limits for continuous operation and start-up conditions.
Technical Data: Specifications include displacement, oil charge, weight, pipe connections, electrical supply, and frequency range for various models within the VSK series.
Specifications: The document outlines the specifications for the VSK series, detailing synchronous operation voltages as 230 V∆/400 VY/3/50 Hz and 275 V∆/460 VY/3/60 Hz. The compressors have capacity control with steps at 100% and 50%. Special designs like VSK3161-15Y and VSK3162-15Y with 2-step capacity control are available.
Procedures: For selecting contactors, cables, and fuses, the maximum operating current must be considered. The operational category for contactors is AC3, and motor contactors should be selected for approximately 60% of the maximum operating current. Stepless capacity control can be achieved with a frequency inverter.
Standards and Recommendations: The document recommends considering the maximum operating current for electrical components. Other electrical supplies are available upon request.
Dimensional Drawings: Includes dimensional drawings for standard versions, detailing connection positions such as high pressure (HP) and low pressure (LP) connections, oil sight glass, oil drain, oil fill plug, and valve for capacity control.
Additional Information: The document is subject to change and was last updated in May 2010 by BITZER Kühlmaschinenbau GmbH, located in Sindelfingen, Germany.

Hermetic Screw Compressors VSK31 / VSK41 Die hermetischen Kompaktschrauben ergänzen das SchraubenverdichterProgramm im unteren Leistungsbereich. Sie eignen sich für den Einsatz in fabrikmäßig gefertigten Klimageräten, Flüssigkeits-Kühlsätzen und insbesondere für die Klimatisierung von Schienenfahrzeugen. The hermetic compact screws complete the compressor screw programme in the lower capacity spectrum. They are suited for insertion into factory finished air conditioning units, liquid chiller units and in particular also for the air conditioning of railway carriages.

Capacity control and start unloading Régulation de puissance et démarrage à vide Für die Serie VSK41 wurde ein neuartiges Reglersystem entwickelt. Das grundsätzliche Funktionsprinzip entspricht dem eines Steuerschiebers bei IndustrieSchraubenverdichtern. Dabei wird das Fördervolumen durch Verschieben der Ansaug-Steuerkante reduziert. Die Reglereinheit ist so ausgeführt, dass das Rotorgehäuse in seiner Stabilität nicht geschwächt wird. Damit bleiben die Spalte zwischen Rotoren und Gehäuse auch bei hohen Temperaturen in engen Grenzen. Diese Maßnahme ist bei kleineren Schraubenverdichtern – bedingt...
