Product details

Danfoss Maneurop Reciprocating Compressor | 400V 3-Phase | MT160-4VM

Product Description:

The Danfoss MT160-4VM (MT160HW4EVE) is a powerful, heavy-duty cooling solution built to withstand the most extreme high-ambient conditions in the UAE. As the largest model in the Maneurop MT series, it is optimized for R22 refrigerant and mineral oil, boasting a massive displacement of 271.55 $cm^3/rev$. This “Blue Compressor” is renowned for its 100% suction gas-cooled motor and a remarkably large internal free volume, which serves as a critical safety reservoir against liquid slugging—essential for the large-scale cooling plants of Dubai and Abu Dhabi. Built for continuous operation under heavy loads, the MT160 is the ultimate choice for large supermarket racks, cold storage complexes, and industrial chillers where mechanical durability and cooling power are the top priorities.

Key Features & Benefits:

  • Maximum Industrial Capacity: Delivering the highest cooling volume in the series, it is ideal for the UAE’s largest commercial and industrial refrigeration projects.
  • Unmatched Liquid Tolerance: The expansive internal volume acts as a superior buffer against liquid refrigerant return, protecting the compressor in complex UAE field installations.
  • 100% Suction Gas Cooled: Maximizes thermal protection for the motor, ensuring the unit operates reliably even in the extreme heat of the UAE summer.
  • Engineered for Durability: Features heavy-duty internal components and high-precision valve plates to ensure a long service life in demanding Middle Eastern environments.
  • Professional Monitoring: Comes standard with a built-in oil sight glass and Rotolock connections, allowing UAE service teams to perform precise maintenance and monitoring.

FAQs:

  • Q: Why is the MT160-4VM considered the “standard” for large UAE projects?
  • A: Its reputation for surviving extreme heat and handling liquid return better than many competitors makes it a trusted “workhorse” for critical UAE infrastructure.
  • Q: Can I use this model with R404A in the UAE?
  • A: No. The MT series is designed for mineral oil. For HFC refrigerants, you must use the MTZ160 model with POE oil to maintain system warranty and lubrication.
  • Q: What is the benefit of the Rotolock connections for UAE sites?
  • A: They allow for faster replacement and easier maintenance compared to brazed connections, which is a major advantage for reducing downtime in busy UAE commercial centers.
