Provision Cooling Compressor · Compressors
The Bitzer 4FES-3Y is a compact semi‑hermetic reciprocating compressor designed to provide provision (galley/freezer) cooling on small to medium sized vessels. As a Provision Cooling Compressor, it is normally installed in the engine room, compressor room, cargo machinery space or refrigeration plant according to the listed duty. In that role, its primary purpose is to compress air, refrigerant or process gas for the shipboard service identified by the category. Starting-air, service-air, refrigeration and cargo-gas compressors differ in medium, sealing and protection, but all depend on sound compression elements, cooling, lubrication and controls. Power: 3 kW; capacity: 8 kW cooling. For exact ratings, dimensions, settings, capacities, materials and variant-specific limits, refer to the manufacturer documentation for the exact figure.
