Exhibited Products

Compressor

Fixed Displacement Compressor

Seeking to achieve reliability, compactness, light weight, and high efficiency in harsh operating conditions, the Company offers a wide variety of car air conditioner compressors with indispensable features and functions, comprising the swash plate, scroll, and vane types. Since starting mass production of the world's first 10-cylinder swash plate compressor, the Company has further refined its technology. Its extensive product range has earned it the largest share of the global compressor market.

Variable Displacement Compressor

A variable displacement compressor controls the amount of refrigerant displaced by changing the angle of the rotating swash plate. Smooth control synchronized with engine and driving conditions not only improves driving comfort, but also, by reducing the energy required, improves engine performance with regard to the environment. Since the Company began mass production of the world's first one-way swash plate variable displacement compressor in 1995, it has continued to develop the technology, leading to energy efficiency and superior reliability.

Fuel Cell Vehicle

Air Compressor & Hydrogen Circulation Pump

The air compressor feeds oxygen into the fuel cell. The hydrogen circulation pump circulates hydrogen through the fuel cell. The Company has achieved superior efficiency by utilizing technology developed by air conditioning compressors.

Hydrogen Circulation Pump Inverter

The revolutions of the hydrogen circulation pump's motor are controlled by commands issued by the vehicle. The position of the motor is detected without sensors.

Power Control Unit Case

This case houses the output control module of a fuel cell. In order to protect electronic components, which generate heat during operation, it is constructed with a fine groove called a "fin" through which coolant flows. Thanks to a newly developed aluminum material, the case combines the necessary thermal conductivity with strength that resists vibration to remove heat quickly.
