WCPU Water Cooled Units – Advanced Scroll Compressor Features Explained

EKG Malaysia Sdn Bhd proudly offers Water Cooled Packaged Units (WCPU) equipped with advanced scroll compressors, delivering superior performance for commercial, industrial, and high-rise buildings across Malaysia. These indoor-installed, water-cooled systems use water to reject heat (via cooling towers or condensers), making them ideal where outdoor units are impractical or aesthetics matter.

Unlike traditional reciprocating compressors, scroll compressors feature two spiral-shaped scrolls—one fixed and one orbiting—to smoothly compress refrigerant in a continuous, non-pulsating process. This design results in fewer moving parts (often 70% fewer than reciprocating types), leading to exceptional reliability and longevity.

Key Advanced Features of Scroll Compressors in WCPU Systems

• Superior Energy Efficiency Scroll compressors achieve higher isentropic and volumetric efficiency, with near-continuous compression that minimizes losses. This translates to lower electricity bills, especially in part-load conditions common in Malaysian commercial spaces. Many models offer excellent performance at varying loads, helping systems meet green building standards.
• Ultra-Quiet & Low-Vibration Operation The smooth orbital motion eliminates the piston-like reciprocating action, resulting in significantly reduced noise and vibration. Combined with sound-proof insulation and anti-vibration base pans in WCPU designs, these units create a more comfortable indoor environment—perfect for offices, hotels, malls, and high-rises where noise is a concern.
• Enhanced Reliability & Durability With minimal moving parts and no valves or pistons subject to high wear, scroll compressors offer longer service life and fewer breakdowns. They handle liquid slugging better and require less frequent maintenance, reducing downtime and long-term costs for building owners.
• Compact & Space-Saving Design The hermetic, streamlined construction allows for smaller overall unit sizes while maintaining high cooling capacity. This is especially valuable in Malaysia's space-constrained commercial buildings, where WCPU units are typically ceiling-mounted or floor-standing indoors.
• Smooth Capacity Control & Modern Compatibility Many advanced scroll compressors support staging (multiple compressors) or even inverter/variable-speed options for precise load matching. This improves comfort, reduces energy waste, and enhances humidity control in tropical climates.
