Pioneers in Screw Compressor Technology

Big 4 Semi-Hermetic Series

Company Information
Hartford Compressors Inc. designs, manufactures,
and supports an extensive range of rotary screw
compressors and reciprocating compressors for
use in air conditioning and refrigeration systems.
With decades of experience in developing
innovative products for commercial, industrial,
and marine applications, Hartford Compressors
sets the standard for precision engineering,
optimum performance, and customer satisfaction.

Hartford Compressors Big 4 reciprocating

compressors offer unmatched performance in
low-commercial and high-temperature
applications. Semi-hermetic and open-drive
models include crank-case heaters, oil pump and
an internal pressure relief valve. Low-temperature
models also include a discharge temperature
thermostat and an oil cooler with a desuper-
heating TX valve. Semi-hermetic models feature
an across-the-line or part-wind motor and built-in
thermal protection.

Capacity control is standard on all semi-

hermetic and open-drive R-22 compressors for
high-temperature applications; it is optional on
commercial temperature models. Low-
temperature units are not available with
capacity control.

Our latest generation of medium and large screw

compressors have been designed for long life, low
noise and vibration levels, improved reliability,
and lower operating costs. They are compatible
with environmentally friendly refrigerants and
gases with zero ozone depletion potential (ODP)
and zero global warming potential (GWP).

All of our products are engineering with the

highest attention to detail. Whether choosing a
standard model or one specially engineered, we
provide needed features and benefits. With this
philosophy, Hartford Compressors Inc. proudly
presents the Big 4 which illustrates all aspects of
engineering excellence.
