How does the Variable Speed Compressor (Variable Capacity Compressor) work?
Unlike standard compressors that run on a set cycle (either at full speed, around 3,500 RPM or completely off), the Variable Speed Compressor operates at multiple speeds (1,500 RPM to 4,100 RPM) at different times depending on what is occurring in the cabinet. This saves energy and prolongs the life of the compressor. When placing a warm product into the cabinet, the compressor senses the change in temperature and immediately runs full speed (4,100 RPM) for rapid cool down. As the temperature of the cabinet drops, the Variable Speed Compressor will adjust its speed and allow the RPM’s to drop as well. Because the compressor can sense the temperature of the compartment, PERLICK is able to maintain incredible control of the temperature inside the cabinet (freezers maintain +/- 5 degrees, refrigerators maintain +/- 3 degrees, and wine +/- 2 degrees of set temperature). Thermal mass testing has proven that contents stored inside the compartment will not vary in temperature; therefore exten
