Overview of VCC 3rd Generation Technological Innovations:
The VCC 3rd generation introduces a compact electronic design, 45% smaller than its predecessor, and offers a drop-in solution for conventional on/off compressors. It is compatible with both electronic and electromechanical thermostats and features easy assembly with EM and EG shells. The new controller boasts greater processing capacity, reducing consumption during compressor stop times and providing flexibility in system connections. The electronic module is available in two assembly versions: direct coupling (FENCE) and separate (STAND ALONE).
Energy Efficiency and Performance:
Since its launch in 2001, Embraco's Variable Capacity Compressor (VCC) has been recognized for its low energy consumption and quiet operation. The 3rd generation VCC offers up to 45% energy consumption reduction compared to conventional compressors. It provides high efficiency at low rotation speeds and improves capacity/efficiency by 5-7% over the 2nd generation. The compressor's speed control significantly reduces noise levels.
Applications and Compatibility:
The VCC 3rd generation is suitable for domestic refrigeration systems using R 134a and R 600a refrigerants, compatible with 115 and 220V, and 50 and 60Hz frequencies. It allows for customized solutions with smaller products (VEMY series) and electronics integrated into the compressor. The system supports multiple electrical connections, requiring minimal design alterations and low investment in production processes.
Technical Specifications and Standards:
The VCC 3rd generation includes features like an auxiliary AC outlet, software configuration, and storage of parameters in non-volatile memory. It minimizes electromagnetic noise according to IEC/VDE/UL standards and eliminates electromechanical noise by removing the relay present in the 2nd generation.
Model Specifications:
The document provides detailed specifications for various VCC models, including VEGY and VEMY series, with information on capacity, speed range, and refrigerant type. These models are designed to operate efficiently across a range of voltages and frequencies, offering flexibility for different refrigeration needs.
