The EPA recently Published the 2023 reclaim summary. You can find the direct listing here: https://lnkd.in/eHNMQ8TQ. The report highlights top-level activity, and we glean three takeaways. 1. Three (3) refrigerants from the Comfort Coolingsector dominate 80% of all refrigerants R-134a, R-22, R-410 2. Refrigeration gasses account for less than 20% of all refrigerants returned to reclaimers 3. Only 15 Million LBS were returned to reclaim The mixed gas amounts are no longer precise but appear low—not the same as last year. Reclaim is down 2% 2023 versus 2021

Refrigerants in self-contained refrigeration systems must comply with a #GWPlimit of 150 by 2025. What does this mean for you? With devices and systems for environmental simulation tests typically operating in temperature ranges from -40°C to over 100°C, ensuring precise control and adherence to various test specifications is paramount. While single-stage refrigeration systems with R449A reach a minimum temperature of -40°C, cooling slows down from around -25°C. Our #CO2 (R744) systems, on the other hand, can cool powerfully down to -50°C with much higher heat compensation. So fear not, with CO2, we can cool down to -50°C even more effectively than with our previous refrigerants. But what about those ultra-low temperatures? For chambers requiring even colder temperatures, we'll continue to utilize our other refrigerants, with cascade systems using R-449A/R-469A/R23. Stay tuned to learn more about the recent CO2 updates and what they mean for you.💡 #weisstechnik #FGasRegulations #EnviromentalSimulation

Summer is coming. Is your refrigeration ready? Summer can be a challenging time for businesses relying on commercial refrigeration. High temperatures push refrigeration systems harder, which can lead to wear and efficiency losses. Preparing your system for summer isn't just about maintenance; it's about protecting your bottom line. Consider these steps: 1. Inspect and Clean: Regular checks and cleaning can prevent major issues. 2. Upgrade: Consider updating older systems to more efficient models to save on energy costs. 3. Monitor: Keep a close eye on temperature fluctuations to catch problems early.

WARNING for prospective owners of new industrial refrigeration systems - don’t get stuck with using the new HFO Freon refrigerants, as the last HFC Freon refrigerants are being phased out!! It’s only a matter of time before EPA makes them illegal too. Insanity is repeating the same mistake over and over. CFC’s >>>illigal (1990’s) HCFC’s.>>>illegal (2000’s) HFC’s>>>illegal (2010’s) HFO’s>>>illegal NEXT (2020’s) !!! Use natural refrigerants such as ammonia and CO2. They are the future proof answer!! https://lnkd.in/ex2d8HAg

As CO2 systems continue to evolve for warmer climates, ejectors play a crucial role in easing the load on medium-temperature (MT) packs. Here’s how they make a difference: The ejector can take over the functionality of the high-pressure valve, maintaining system pressure while also increasing efficiency. During the summer, when pressure rises, the ejector reaches supersonic speeds, redirecting gas from the MT suction and pushing it into the high-pressure ejector. This gas is then handled by the IT (Intermediate Temperature) compressor, taking the load off the MT compressor and improving system performance. By optimizing the flow of gas, ejectors not only protect the MT pack but also enhance the overall efficiency of CO2 systems in warmer conditions.

Hot summer weather can increase the energy use of #refrigeration systems by 11%. There is also a greater potential for a breakdown of individual refrigeration units, which would increase maintenance costs and the potential for food waste. Our blog details steps retailers can take to ensure their refrigeration system is running smoothly during the summer: • Using energy-saving software • Remotely monitoring refrigeration system performance • Switching to CO2 refrigeration or cascade systems Read the full blog here: https://buff.ly/3N8tcCn
