The German expert for compressors and condensing units is joining hydrocrabons21.com to showcase its expertise in the field of natural refrigerants.

Bock has been the first European manufacturer that offers certified ATEX-conform semi-hermetic compressors for potentially explosive environments. These are also suitable for hydrocarbon applications, offering system manufacturers an alternative to conventional refrigerants. The special ATEX version is certified by TÜV SÜD according to ATEX appliance group 2.

At the Mostra Convegno Expocomfort 2010 in April Bock showcased, besides its established compressors for use with hydrocarbons, its new specially for Hydrocarbons modified compressors for use where ATEX certification is not required, namely HG34P HC and HG4 HC.
