GEA Grasso L XHP at Chillventa 2024

Optimized design of the screw compressor GEA Grasso L XHP for a wide range of applications

The L XHP is based on the proven technology of GEA's Grasso screw compressors, which have been continuously developed and improved for over 50 years. Thanks to its extended operating limits, the GEA Grasso L XHP is designed for a pressure of 70 bar and a maximum discharge temperature of 140 °C, making it ideal for high-pressure applications. The compressor series comprises three sizes with a swept volume of 1,990 to 2,748 m³/h at a speed of 2,940 rpm, which can be driven at up to 3,600 rpm. That leads to a heating capacity range of 2 to 11 MW per compressor.
