A new refrigerant detection and management system works with VRF (Variable Refrigerant Flow) air conditioning systems. In the unlikely event of a refrigerant leak, it shuts down the specific section of pipework involved, while enabling the rest of the system to continue operating as normal.
The refrigerant detection and management system received the 2018 Ancillary Product…
The low GWP HFC/HFO blend refrigerant R-454C, a “mildly flammable” refrigerant is being used in an air-source heat pump designed for use in factories. According to the manufacturer, it is the industry’s first heat pump of its type capable of heating water to 75°C with an outside temperature as low as -20°C,…
The 8th Emissions Gap Report, published by UN Environment (UNEP) estimates the potential contribution short-lived climate pollutants (SLCPs), including HFCs, could make in the global effort to keep the planet’s warming well below 2°C. Two impacts of the Kigali Amendment are reduction in direct refrigerant emissions (HFCs) and likely improvements in energy…
A new range of variable-speed screw chillers, exceeds the European Ecodesign energy performance standards by 35%. Available with HFC-134a as refrigerant, the chiller is designed with the ability to be upgraded to A2L refrigerant HFO-1234zeE (GWP <1) while on-site.
With cooling capacities from 500 kW up to 1100 kW initially it achieves exceptional…
