Strathbrook Refrigeration Services has undertaken the design and installation of numerous specialised Ammonia cooling and blast freezing systems tailored for specific applications.
Ammonia proves highly effective as a refrigerant in large industrial and commercial settlings, such as spiral freezers and is adaptable to micro-charged water chillers with exceptionally low refrigerant volumes.
While ammonia may not suit every application and demands thorough research, its efficiency can be remarkable if installed to exacting standards, complemented by essential safety equipment and accompanied by comprehensive staff training.
By law, ammonia systems necessitate a more rigorous maintenance and safety regimen compared to more prevalent refrigerants, yet they can represent the optimal choice for certain systems. Ammonia particularly excels in extreme temperature conditions, both high and low.
For instance, black freezing, which required rapid freezing of large volumes of warm product, exemplifies a low-temperature application. Conversely, cooling water at elevated temperatures, such as 10 degrees Celsius and above, illustrates another area where ammonia thrives.
Upon discussing your requirements, we offer guidance on refrigerant options, ensuring the most cost-effective solution for your project, while prioritising longevity, operations safety and maintenance considerations.
Carbon Dioxide (CO2) serves as a long-term, naturally occuring replacement for many currently available GFC- type refrigerants, known for its exceptional energy efficiency and non-toxic nature. Its rapid expansion across various applications is driven by reduced power consumption and smaller, quieter plant rooms, making it a cost-effective and versatile option for refrigeration needs.
Strathbrook Refrigeration Servies boasts significant experience in managing commercial and industrial projects.
To prevent any unexpected breakdown or malfunctions, regular servicing of refrigeration plants/equipment and air conditioning is required.
We recognize that refrigeration and air conditioning issues can arise at any time and your refrigeration plant runs 24/7, which is why we provide round the clock emergency breakdown service.
Warm glycol defrosting has been a longstanding method, proven highly effective in swiftly removing frost and ice from freezer room evaporators while minimising the introduction of heat into the freezer environment, therefore ensuring optimal operational conditions.
