Danfoss Industries Private Limited, a leader in mechanical and electronic components and solutions, hosted a Product Expo in Mumbai on July 1, 2008 to launch Danfoss Turbocor, the world's first totally oil-free compressor that has been specifically designed for the heating, ventilation, air conditioning and refrigeration (HVAC&R) industry. The Product Expo is to spanned four days from the 30th of June across New Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai and Bangalore. 

A path-breaking innovation as the world’s first totally oil-free compressor, designed for the HVAC&R industry, the Danfoss Turbocor offers several advantages over conventional compressors. Most significantly, the compressor is 33% more energy efficiency and has totally oil-free operation. It provides outstanding energy savings from digitally controlled, frictionless, two-stage centrifugal compression. That way it achieves significant reductions in operating cost and environmental emissions associated with energy production. The convergence of aerospace and industrially proven technologies enables the Turbocor family of compressors to achieve the highest overall efficiency for middle-market, water-cooled, evaporatively cooled, and air-cooled HVACR applications. Such technologies include magnetic bearings, variable-speed centrifugal compression, and digital electronic controls. 

“We are very pleased that we can introduce this revolutionary new compressor to stalwarts in the Indian industry. The Turbocor addresses a demand in the market for energy efficient applications with oil-free operation. We feel confidant that this product will not only provide exceptional benefits to our customers, but will also revolutionise the industry,” said M Anuraaga Chandra, Vice President, Danfoss Refrigeration & Air Conditioning Division, Danfoss Industries Pvt Ltd.

With over 300 visitors attending the Product Expo, the introduction of the Danfoss Turbocor to the Indian market has been well received. (Chandra Anuraaga, VP – Sales & Marketing, Danfoss Refrigeration & Air-conditioning Danfoss Industries Pvt Ltd. E-mail: anuraag@danfoss.com)”
