FRICO2 Sub-Critical Cascade refrigeration systems have been designed for large supermarkets and hypermarkets having in mind efficiency and reliability.
It is the answer to environmental concerns as it combines low energy consumption and the use of natural refrigerant CO2.
FRICO2 is the protection of investment against cost increase and legislation upon not using synthetic refrigerants.
The system provides refrigeration capacities for a wide range of applications for different temperature ranges.
FRICO2 is designed for both Medium and Low-Temperature applications. Also, combined MT and LT models are available.
A compact frame allows for fast installation and a stable platform for superior performance and durability.
STANDARD FEATURES
• Double temperature regime is optimal for supermarket applications
• Semi-hermetic compressors for both High Temperature and Low-Temperature Cycles
• Hermetically sealed pump for brine refrigeration system configuration
• The racks are fully insulated in headers, lines, and components
• Gauge Panels and pressure transducer locating points
• Touch screen availability for easy remote control of the system
• Pressure tested with nitrogen and delivered with pressure charge for system integrity
• Frequency controlled compressors for both High and Low-Temperature Cycles for compensation of variation in refrigeration capacity
• Frequency control also allows better efficiency in the overall system COP
• On-board auxiliary unit
• Easy service, all the components are easily accessible
ADVANTAGES
Using CO2 in cascade systems gives a number of advantages:
• Efficiency of the system is high even in the hot climates
• Only a small amount of refrigerant is needed for high-temperature stage
• Temperature difference for the cascade heat exchanger is relatively low
• On the high side various refrigerants can be used (HC / HFC)
• Lower first cost
• Less space required
• Lower temperatures at reasonable costs
• CO2 is non‐toxic and non‐flammable
• CO2 does not damage products
• CO2 Cascade Systems reduce CO2 emission
