Horizontal & Vertical Type Condensers

Horizontal & Vertical Type Condensers

Features & Applications

  • Friterm FCH / FCV series condensers are manufactured for outdoor installation and operation, without considering additional external pressure losses.
  • Fans are arranged as single row (1 to 4 fans) or double row (2 to 14 fans) configurations
  • Capacity range: 11 to 1428 kW
  • All models are suitable for both horizontal and vertical installation and airflow configurations
Coil Features
  • Staggered tube arrangement
  • Internally grooved copper tubes with aluminum fins, specifically designed for condenser applications
  • Fin spacing: 2.1 – 2.5 mm (other options available)
  • Designed for refrigerants such as R404A, R507, R134a, R407A, and R407C (capacities based on R404A)
  • Tube-to-tube sheet contact is prevented to ensure leak-free operation and long service life
  • Copper headers and inlet/outlet connections
  • Air vent / service valve on inlet header
  • Standard test pressure: 34 bar (PED 2014/68/EU compliant)
Casing
  • Robust structure allows installation on steel or concrete surfaces without additional support 
  • Galvanized steel casing with epoxy-polyester electrostatic powder coating, providing  UV resistance and corrosion protection
  • Standard color: RAL 7044
  • Each fan section is separated by sheet metal partitions to prevent reverse rotation of idle fans
  • Lifting lugs and mounting feet are included in all models
