Danfoss IPS 8 Intelligent Purging Systems
The Danfoss IPS 8 is an intelligent purging system that automatically removes non-condensable gases (air) from ammonia (R717) refrigeration systems. Non-condensables trapped in condensers and receivers raise condensing pressure, increase energy consumption and accelerate corrosion — automatic purging keeps the system efficient without manual intervention.
