Your plant’s performance depends upon refrigeration
equipment reliability and efficiency. That’s why, while evaluating productivity improvements, it’s a good idea to take a close look at life cycle cost. When you add up maintenance, operating, and repair costs, you’ll find that the Frick RXF screw compressor provides the kind of increased productivity and ef- ficiency that results in lower total cost. It’s the “all work, no waste” compressor that helps you save energy and money as never before.
The RXF performs at peak efficiency under
varying loads and operating conditions.
Volumizer® Variable Volume Ratio Control adjusts
the compressor volume ratio during operation to the most efficient point, depending upon system requirements. This reduces energy waste caused by under- or overcompression.
Infinite capacity reduction from 100% to 25% of full
load provided by a slide valve control—the most efficient method of capacity control for screw com- pressors. Allows close system control under widely varying load conditions.

Forget about ever having to change blown fuses due to power spikes and other line voltage disturbances. If a disturbance occurs, you will be back on line with the flip of a switch. UL, cUL, CE, and ISO 9001 Certifications Flash Setpoint Memory. All setpoints are stored on a Flash chip, which requires no battery backup, and can be downloaded to a flash card for storage.You will nev- er again lose a setpoint or have to reenter setpoints due to power loss. Setpoints can be field programmed within defined limits. A notice is displayed if setpoints are entered outside of the defined ranges. Intuitive Operator Interface. All of the Quantum control panel screens are menu driven and easy to use and understand. Help screens and prompts are available to assist in setup or monitoring of system information. Calibration and operation instruction can be accessed on-line using the Help key. Pass- word protection is provided. Software Diagnostics. Numerous diagnostic features have been incorporated to assist in troubleshooting. The largest selection in the industry.
