Here's why:

Reliability  

Copeland Scroll compressors are the most reliable compressors available. Our patented scroll design has superior liquid handling capability and requires no tip seals that wear out. We rigorously test every compressor design before it goes into production to guarantee it meets your demanding standards and specifications.  

Efficiency

Copeland Scroll compressors achieve high efficiencies due to 100% volumetric efficiency during the compression process. Our patented scroll design operates under continuous flank contact, maintained by centrifugal force. This minimizes gas leakage and maximizes efficiency.  

Size and Weight 

If space is a precious commodity, a Copeland Scroll compressor is your answer. Its small footprint and vertical orientation reduces the square footage you need. It is lightweight and stackable, making it the ideal solution for refrigeration systems where space is critical.  

Sound  

Copeland Scroll compressors function with fewer moving parts, and no discharge or intake valves.  The scroll design allows several pockets of gas to be compressed simultaneously providing a smooth, nearly continuous compression cycle.  This enables the Copeland Scroll compressor to operate more smoothly and quietly, with less vibration.

How it Works

Copeland Scroll compressors employ two identical, concentric scrolls, one inserted within the other. One scroll remains stationary as the other orbits around it. This movement draws gas into the compression chamber and moves it through successively smaller "pockets" formed by the scroll’s rotation, until it reaches maximum pressure at the center of the chamber. There, it’s released through a discharge port in the fixed scroll. During each orbit, several pockets are compressed simultaneously, so operation is virtually continuous.  

Product Line-Up

New Scroll Technology

Copeland was first to develop scroll technology for the commercial refrigeration market.  We continue to evolve the Copeland Scroll compressor platform into larger displacements as well as new applications such as Open Drive Scroll for truck transport systems and Cryoscroll compressors for cryogenic cooling of superconductors.
