1. Introduction (DTC) makes the world's first oil-free, magnetic bearing centrifugal compressor designed for the commercial heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) industry. Using a combination of aerospace, magnetic bearing, and digital electronic technologies, its compressors are used in air and water-cooled chillers and rooftop units. The DTC compressor is one of the most energy efficient compressors in the industry. Hotels, hospitals, industrial facilities, office buildings, and schools are primary users of its products. DTC operates a 72,500 sq. ft., stage-one manufacturing plant in Tallahassee, Florida, USA and maintains offices in North America, Europe, Australia and Asia.
