Ammonia Compressor Applications

Ammonia is a common refrigerant and chemical feedstock. Ammonia compressors must handle its toxicity and corrosiveness safely.

Applications

  • Industrial refrigeration and cold storage.
  • Fertilizer and chemical production.
  • Heat pump and process cooling.

Selection

  • Material compatibility with ammonia.
  • Flow and pressure requirements.
  • Sealing to prevent leaks.

Safety

  • Ammonia is toxic and flammable in concentration.
  • Leak detection and ventilation.
  • Compliance with safety standards.

Why is ammonia used as a refrigerant?

It is efficient and has zero ozone depletion potential, making it common in large industrial refrigeration.
