GEA
Your partner for low temperatures
GEA is a synonym for industrial refrigeration technology. Since the end of the 19th centu-
ry, it has been our business to cool processes and products, and to control the temperature
of goods in transport.
You will find our solutions in the food and beverage sector; in the petrochemical, che-
mical, and pharmaceutical industries; on fishing ships; in natural gas liquefaction; in
infrastructure facilities; and in ice factories. We are also at the top with know-how when
it comes to refrigeration at leisure facilities. After all, we have been excited about refrige-
ration for decades now. As a result, our staff enthusiastically goes about its development
and production projects – to include preventive and remedial maintenance of your refri-
geration systems.
This enthusiasm is highly apparent in the daily work of all companies in our Segment.
Whether it’s complete systems or individual valves: we have the experience in every sec-
tion of our company to optimally design, manufacture, and install refrigeration systems.
And to take full advantage of this experience, we not only carry out development in our
own company: we also manufacture, assemble, and test the core components. A chain is,
after all, only as strong as its weakest link: and this also applies equally well to refrigera-
tion technology, cooling processes, and cooling chains.

This makes it all the more important that you have a partner in GEA that has learned to
master refrigeration from A to Z. From this history of GEA you will profit in the form of
technical expertise and top sector know-how.
But we all live in the present and think about the future. We ponder a future in which
more and more processes need energy around the world, and fewer natural resources are
available. As a result, we have taken it as our goal to create solutions that are not only long-
life and cost-effective, but also energy-saving and environment-protecting. We feel obliga-
ted to sustainability in many respects. Our objective is to produce longlife and material-
saving products over the long run – as well as products that use environmentally benign
refrigerants. And we aim to produce efficiently. But our responsibility does not end at
the factory gate. As a result, we take great pains to ensure that our systems are energy-
efficient and that they protect the climate. With GEA Refrigeration Technologies, you can
also count on optimal economy: saving energy indeed means reducing money spent for
energy. At the same time, you protect the environment. Thanks to our refrigeration tech-
nology, your processes will run more economically and more ecologically. To maintain our
standard of living and to assure quality of life for future generations as well.
Our claim of combining economy with saving natural resources is reflected in all com-
ponents of our company, such as the following: compressors, chillers, heat pumps, ice
machines, fittings and valves, control systems, and many, many more. You can find proof
of the above throughout the world. Our international corporate network – and above all
our reference projects – are spread all over the globe.

GEA - More than a compressor
As part of the GEA Group AG, GEA offers the right compressor for
refrigeration and air conditioning in all commercial, industrial, rail,
bus and transport sectors.

The F model series provides modern open type compressors for

separate drive systems (using V belts or direct couplings) in 6 mo-
del sizes and 8 capacity stages from 10,5 to 178 m³/h. Load transfer
through a V pair.
GEA F compressors are compact, robust and due to their open type
construction they are easy to handle in almost all application fields
of refrigeration technology.

As an alternative to the established F compressor series, a special-

ly modified compressor series F NH3 is available for use with the
refrigerant R 717. The F NH3 series is especially suitable for small
to medium capacities.
No matter what your application is – we offer you the ideal
compressor for your individual demand.

Be inspired. By our new products, our established product series

and the entire passion that goes into each of our products.

At a glance

Based on the F compressor series, a specially modified selection

of compressors is available for use with the refrigerant R 717.

The special features:

2, 4 and 6 cylinder models with displacements of 10 to 180 m³/h (1450 rpm)

Deviations from the basis compressor F:

-- Pistons with three-ring assembly
-- Connecting rod with additional oil supply oil to the small end
-- Valve plate with optimized pressure unit
-- Shut-off valve with steel connector for welded joints
-- all connections are designed as compression joints for steel pipes
-- increased oil volume by elevated base plate
-- special oil filling for NH3 (Fuchs Reniso KC 68). If R723 or other oils are used,
please consult our application engineering department.
-- You will find further information on the F basis compressors in
the chapter entitled „F series single-stage compressors“ from page 8 onwards.

FDK compressor units

Based on the F compressor series with its many designs and application options, a selection of compressor units with compact construction
is available for use with direct drive.
Compressor with flexible shaft coupling for direct drive mounted on a profile base frame. The power transmission from motor to compres-
sor occurs via an elastic flexible shaft coupling. ICE standard motors of type IM B3 are used as drive motors (option).

The special features:

Designed for optimum running comfort

- simple and robust construction
- use of standard motors
- optimum power transmission via direct coupling

Service-friendly
- Flexible shaft coupling can be separated in its installed state,
which enables maintenance work to be carried out on the compressor
and motor, without having to dismantle them from the base frame.

 GEA open type compressors

Compressor solutions for the entire ship

GEA compressors fulfill the high maritime demands already for many years. They help to provide a comfor-
table climate in cabins, keep provisions cooled and are additionally used in many other applications.

GEA compressors also work reliably on container ships, passenger ships or fishing boats.

With a broad product range of open type and semi-hermetic compressors, the GEA program has the right
compressor for nearly all refrigeration and maritime applications.

Together with the program of industrial Grasso piston and screw compressors, GEA offers the broadest
compressor program for maritime applications.

Air-conditioning
The sometimes extreme temperature
fluctuations make the air-conditio-
ning of passenger and crew cabins
on modern ships necessary.

Cooled provisions
To keep the provision for passengers
and crew fresh, a reliable cooling system
is needed.

Process cooling
Different other processes on a ship
require the use of refrigeration technology.
