Explanation of the motorcodes

In consideration of the varoius power supply systems Bitzer offers motors with different operating voltages and frequencies for all compressors. In the following tables the available operating voltages for the specific compressors are listed. To identify the operating voltages and the motor connection, Bitzer adds the motor code to the compressor name.
