Our KOBELION series delivers stable performance even in the most demanding environments, bringing proven value and reliability to manufacturing sites in Japan and around the globe.
Proven Reliability in India’s Scorching Summers
India's summers are notoriously harsh, with temperatures in cities like Delhi and Phalodi often reaching nearly 50℃ from May to June. In Indian factories, indoor temperatures can routinely exceed 45℃, placing significant stress on both workers and equipment. In such conditions, a compressor's durability is essential to ensure it keeps running without failure.
KOBELCO entered the Indian market in 2015 and quickly earned a reputation for "reliability under extreme heat" through customer feedback. A top-class automotive parts manufacturer, Kansal Industries Ltd., chose KOBELCO for its "solid Japanese engineering, durability, and reliability". The company's factory manager confirmed that after 8 years of operation in intense heat and dusty conditions, there have been "zero issues" with the KOBELION units. The compressors have been proven to operate at full load even with an intake temperature of 52.2℃.
The Technology Behind KOBELION's High Heat Resistance
The main reason compressors shut down in high heat is an excessive increase in discharge temperature. To prevent this, KOBELION is designed with superior cooling performance.
Our key technologies include:
Optimal Unit Layout:
We optimized the internal layout through airflow analysis to improve cooling efficiency, ensuring stable air flow even at 50℃.
Large Cooler & Turbo Fan:
The cooler's capacity has been significantly increased to handle high ambient temperatures. The turbo fan technology generates low heat, contributing to energy efficiency and resilience.
Oil-Cooled Motor Cooling (VS models only):
This system replaces traditional fan cooling to improve cooling performance and resistance to environmental changes.
As a result of this development, KOBELION has achieved stable operation at ambient temperatures 5℃ higher than older models, delivering consistent air output without any drop, even at 50℃.
Committed to "Machines That Never Stop"
KOBELCO’s commitment to "machines that never stop" has been a key driver of our growth. We have always refused to compromise, believing that as long as there are customers operating in 50℃ environments, we will continue to push forward to meet their needs. This commitment defines our development and manufacturing spirit.
