Looking for value for money?.
Low Charge Pressure Receivers are an effective, efficient and enduring system package that, once installed will decrease your overall refrigeration costs
Capital Expense, Operating Expense, Maintenance Expense.
Capital Expenses
Require less floor space
Specifications are fully discussed and adhered to
Compressor / receiver package is manufactured off site, resulting in less site work
Operating expense
Installation is quick
Electricity input reduced (typically by 70%)
Simple control and Automatic monitoring of system
Maintenance Expense
Unit can be shut down without closing whole system
Better control under part load conditions.
High reliability and reduced risk of compressor damage

Benifits of
LCPR's
Compared to Pumped Circulation System
Reduced charge with the low-pressure receiver (typically 70% less)
Reduced capital cost
Simplicity of operation
No power required for refrigerant pumps
Easier to maintain
Less pressure drop in wet suction line
Smaller suction and liquid lines
Simpler and more efficient defrost system
Simpler control system
Compared to DX Systems
Enhanced efficiency
Lower compressor discharge temperature
Better use of evaporator surface (flooded operation)
Good distribution in evaporator due to sub-cooling
Receiver can store excess refrigerant
Higher reliability and reduced risk of compressor damage
All control valves on the packaged unit
Can combine easily with reversed cycle defrost
Improved efficiency in low ambient conditions
Longer life and lower maintenance costs
Minimum sitework required
Closer approach temperature in evaporator (no superheat)
Automatic oil return from evaporator
Performance not adversely affected by pressure drop in liquid line
Better control under part load conditions
Benefits of using low pressure receivers with ammonia.
evaporator is overfed purely because the effect of the refrigerant has been increased by the sub-cooling.
it acts as a liquid receiver.
it acts as a suction trap.
it allows refrigerant to be supplied to the evaporator, which can then operate in a flooded manner.
it allows excess evaporators to be operated efficiently at very low temperature differences (no need to produce a superheat signal in the evaporator).
it allows the ammonia expansion device to be of the high-pressure float type.
it allows the collection of excess lubricating oil which can be returned to compressor suction.
The evaporator is overfed purely because the effect of the refrigerant has been increased by the sub-cooling.
It reduces power consumption
Compressor/receiver packages built in factory so less site work
