When sourcing compressors for air conditioners, heat pumps, or refrigeration systems, one of the initial considerations is the selection between a scroll compressor and a rotary compressor. GMCC manufactures both types, each designed for distinct operational requirements.
| Parameter | Rotary Compressor | Scroll Compressor |
|---|---|---|
| Displacement range | 6.8 – 60 cm³/rev | 55 – 96+ cm³/rev |
| Cooling capacity | 2 – 20 kW | 17 – 35+ kW |
| COP (efficiency) | 3.9 – 4.2 W/W | 3.25 – 3.5 W/W |
| Noise level | Lower | Moderately higher |
| Common refrigerants | R32, R290 | R410A |
| Power supply | 1φ or 3φ DC inverter | 3φ DC inverter |
| Typical applications | Residential AC, small heat pumps | Commercial AC, large heat pumps |
Rotary compressors are compact, quiet, and efficient for small to medium-capacity systems.
Suitable applications:
Residential split air conditioners
Small to medium heat pumps (under 20kW)
Dehumidifiers and portable AC units
Systems requiring single-phase power
Reference specification: R32, 1φ 220-240V/50Hz, 6.8 cm³/rev, 2020W cooling / 2538W heating, COP 3.9
Scroll compressors handle higher capacities and continuous operation in commercial settings.
Suitable applications:
Commercial air conditioners (rooftop units, VRF systems)
Large heat pumps (30kW and above)
Chillers and industrial cooling systems
Facilities with three-phase power
Reference specification: R410A, 3φ DC inverter, 96 cm³/rev, 31.4kW cooling, 9.66kW power input, COP 3.25
