Emerson Collaborates with Clauger to Create a High-Performance Industrial Heat Pump Solution
ST. LOUIS — Emerson has contracted with Clauger, a global industrial refrigeration solutions manufacturer based in Lyon, France. Emerson’s Vilter product team worked collaboratively with Clauger to create an industrial heat pump solution for the European market. This product innovation was driven by the increasing demand to reduce the carbon footprints of French agribusiness manufacturers.
Emerson engineers, collaborating with the Clauger team, addressed the market need for improvements in performance and operational efficiency by utilizing a Vilter single-screw compressor for industrial refrigeration applications. By using ammonia, Vilter’s compressor technological solution offered Clauger a refrigerant that has an environmentally conscious profile (non-ozone depleting and zero global warming impact). Vilter’s compressor technological solution also enables Clauger’s heat pump to reach higher desired temperatures while also providing superior performance benefits in efficiency.
