Advancing industrial refrigeration with GEA Grasso V
The introduction of the next generation of GEA Grasso V reciprocating compressors marked a new chapter in industrial refrigeration, bringing improved performance to a wide range of applications. Developed with the end-user in mind, every component of the GEA Grasso V series was carefully assessed to support a low total cost of ownership (TCO) while helping to reduce the carbon footprint – delivering a solution that is both efficient and sustainable.
The GEA Grasso V series includes both single-stage and two-stage reciprocating compressor packages. Two-stage models are ideal for applications requiring low evaporation temperatures, providing optimized performance for deep-freezing requirements.
