Select the compressor in the BITZER SOFTWARE.
If necessary, hit the "Calculate" button in the top left-hand corner again.
Then choose the "Accessories" tab on the right in the top menu bar.
The software suggests suitable accessories (liquid receiver, oil separator, oil cooler, motor, coupling, compressor module, etc.).
A frequency inverter is only suggested if "External FI" has been selected previously in the menu on the left.

In addition, accessories can also be found in the BITZER price list, wholesale catalogues and the spare parts software ePARTS.

Which certifications (CE, UL, UKCA, ASERCOM, etc.) a product has can be seen on the BITZER website: select "PRODUCTS", then search for the desired product (and if necessary go to the "Certifications" tab).
Approval certificates for special approvals (e.g. DNV●GL) are compiled in the document AU-100.

Depending e.g. on the production site and target market, BITZER products are designed for approvals according to e.g.
CE (EU region),
UKCA (United Kingdom),
UL/CSA (USA, Canada, Saudi Arabia).
In addition, BITZER cooperates internationally with many testing and notification bodies, especially with ship classification societies. The desired special approvals must be specified when the order is received - subsequent approval certificates are not possible.
Certificates for basic approvals are compiled in document AU-100.

The model designations are explained in the respective brochures.
For reciprocating compressors, they usually start with the number of cylinders (double for tandems), followed by identifiers e.g. for bore x stroke, series, type of lubrication, motor size, oil charge, motor code. For examples see brochures KP-180 (compressors), KP-261 (condensing units).
For screw compressors, they usually start with the series, followed by identifiers e.g. for application range, refrigerant, housing size, displacement, motor size, oil charge, motor code. For examples see brochures SP-100 (HS screw compressors), SP-170 (CS screw compressors), SP-500 (open drive screw compressors).
For scroll compressors, they usually start with the model, followed by configuration, application, housing size, identifier for refrigerating capacity, application optimisation, connection type, motor code, motor protection, design variable. For examples see brochure ESP-130 (ORBIT scroll compressors).
