A new technology has been developed that can decompose refrigerants, using a catalyst made from industrial waste called “red mud.'’ 

As the industry continues to evolve, it’s essential for HVACR contractors to embrace comprehensive training programs that address both foundational knowledge and hands-on experience with CO₂ systems.

In this episode, The ACHR NEWS speaks with Andre Patenaude from Copeland about some of the current issues that are shaping the commercial refrigeration industry.

A compressor design proposes a new drive mechanism for compressors used for cooling in homes, buildings, airplanes, and cars.

Compressor manufacturers have been improving the products on multiple fronts in recent months.

At the AHR Expo, refrigeration manufacturers displayed their latest equipment and components that are geared toward the commercial refrigeration market.

Digitalization is a technological paradigm shift that is transforming our lives, and is set to have a compelling impact on the cold chain.

NASRC to offer free training event for refrigeration technicians in St. Louis who want to learn more about natural refrigerants, such as CO₂ and propane.

NASRC will offer free comprehensive CO₂ and propane refrigeration training at its Natural Refrigerant Training Summit.

This product introduces two fan speeds to evaporator fans: low speed when no refrigerant is needed and high speed only during active cooling.

Home builders need to begin preparing for the big refrigerant shift that is quickly approaching.

Here is the potential problem: A contractor quotes a customer on the compressor replacement, and he agrees to repair the cooler at the quoted price. Then, as the technician is completing the job — or even after he has finished replacing the compressor — he finds out there is another system problem.

Refrigeration systems can become restricted in both their high and low sides for a variety of reasons.

With over 20 years of experience in natural refrigerants, Embraco’s compressor portfolio features products for commercial food service, food retail, merchandisers, and aftermarket segments. Conveniently, the booth was sectioned into these four different segments, so AHR Expo attendees could easily find the R-290 solution they were looking for.

In Greek mythology, Argus was a son of Zeus. Having the king of the gods up on Mount Olympus for a dad probably raised the bar in terms of expectations. Fortunately, Tecumseh seemed comfortable with that kind of lofty namesake for its biggest launch at this year’s AHR Expo, the ARGUS condensing unit platform.

SPX Corporation has completed the acquisition of SGS Refrigeration Inc., based in Dixon, Illinois.

There are several reasons why the compressor discharge temperature of a refrigeration system can be high when the condensing temperature is not, and a checklist can help a technician figure out the root problem.

Integrated Facility Services (IFS), a full-service mechanical contractor with offices in St. Louis and Columbia, Missouri, announced it has acquired Wally’s Refrigeration, Lake of the Ozarks, Missouri.

The U.S. commercial refrigeration systems market is projected to expand at a healthy compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.2 percent in terms of value through 2025, according to a report from Future Market Insights.

This year’s Dealer Design Awards gold winning product in the Refrigeration and Ice Machine category is the Quantum Air™ Remote Air Cooled Condenser from Heat Transfer Products Group Inc.

Emerson spent more than three years researching and designing its 2018 Dealer Design Award gold-winning product in the Refrigeration and Ice Machines category.

Like other companies working in the sector, Heatcraft Refrigeration Products faced a new set of DOE Annual Walk-In Energy Factor (AWEF) standards taking effect on Jan. 1 of this year.

The Gold award in the Refrigeration and Ice Machines category goes to the Copeland Digital Outdoor Refrigeration Unit, X-Line Series by Emerson.

The Refrigeration & Ice Machines category winners include a refrigerant charging scale, evaporative control technology, and a condensing unit.

The Gold award in the Refrigeration and Ice Machines category goes to a self-contained refrigeration system for walk-in coolers and freezers that eliminates several of the steps required for a traditional system.

The winner is a kit that is a universal, field-mount refrigeration controller with temperature sensors and pressure transducer kit that can be installed up to 40 feet from an air or electric defrost unit cooler.

Bacharach has been in acquisition mode lately, and the company was showing off the new products and relationships that resulted from that at this year’s AHR Expo in Atlanta.

At the AHR Expo, RectorSeal LLC highlighted several new products designed to combat leaks and corrosion, both on the inside of the unit and from salty sea breezes on the coast.

Available for commercial and industrial applications, this product supports safety compliance inside of machinery rooms, mechanical equipment rooms, chiller plants, cold storage facilities, and walk-in freezers by monitoring for refrigerant leaks for numerous gases including HFCs, HFOs, HCFCs, CO2, and ammonia (NH3)).

This product detects all CFC, HFC, and HCFC refrigerants as low as 0.006 oz/yr, including R-410a and R-507.

Refrigerant leaks in HVACR equipment – particularly commercial refrigeration systems -- are a significant problem.

Know what type of detector you are using, know how to use it, and ensure it’s capable of detecting leaks by calibrating it on a regular basis.
