Typical Specifications

Typical cooling capacity

For this class of equipment, cooling capacities commonly range from 5 kW to 30 kW, depending on the compressor and evaporator sizing.

Power supply

Units of this type typically require a 3-phase electrical supply, commonly 400V/50Hz.

Refrigerant type

Modern units commonly utilise HFC refrigerants such as R404A or R407C, though older systems may use different types.

Evaporator configuration

A twin-fan evaporator, as described, is commonly used for efficient air circulation in medium to large cold rooms.

Compressor type

Copeland compressors are widely recognised for their reliability and are commonly found in commercial refrigeration applications.

Temperature range

Refrigeration sets are typically designed to maintain temperatures between -5°C and +10°C, suitable for chilled storage.
