Product details
Maneurop Hermetic Reciprocating Compressor | MT56-4VM | 3-Phase | R22
Product Description: The MT56-4VM is a core model in the Danfoss Maneurop MT range, specifically engineered for use with R22 refrigerant and 160P Mineral Oil. In the UAE market, it is a primary choice for maintaining and servicing existing R22 infrastructures in supermarket cold rooms, industrial chillers, and milk cooling systems. The “-4VM” designation indicates it operates on a 380-400V 3-Phase (50Hz) power supply, providing the high starting torque and balanced electrical efficiency required for professional refrigeration systems in Dubai and Abu Dhabi.
This compressor features Maneurop’s signature large internal free volume and a 100% suction-gas cooled motor. This specialized design provides a critical safety buffer against liquid slugging and ensures the motor stays cool even when ambient temperatures reach extreme levels during the UAE summer.
Key Features & Benefits:
- Industrial 3-Phase Performance: Offers higher efficiency and more stable operation for continuous-duty commercial refrigeration racks compared to single-phase versions.
- Legendary Liquid Handling: The large internal housing acts as a built-in accumulator, protecting the valve plates from damage caused by liquid refrigerant return.
- T3 Climate Resilience: Specifically engineered to perform under the high-pressure conditions typical of the Middle Eastern summer.
- Rotolock Serviceability: Equipped with Rotolock suction and discharge ports for fast, clean installation and easier maintenance in the field.
- Robust Reciprocating Tech: Built with heavy-duty internal bearings and high-precision valves for a long service life in demanding environments.
