REFRIGERANTS
signifi cant contributor to global warming. By using low viscosity fl uids in these secondary loops, refrigeration systems can achieve high effi ciency while maintaining lower GWP, meeting the goals set out in regulation.
A win-win Energy effi ciency is a critical issue for refrigeration
systems, particularly those operating on a large scale, such as in supermarkets, industrial processing, and cold storage. With rising energy costs and the push toward net-zero emissions, improving the energy performance of cooling systems is essential. Low viscosity heat transfer fl uids are a key
innovation in this space, enabling operators to cut energy costs while maintaining high cooling performance. Lower pumping power: Traditional heat transfer fl uids, like MPG, require signifi cant pumping power to circulate, especially in systems operating at lower temperatures. This results in higher energy consumption, which not only drives up costs but also increases emissions. LV HTFs, by comparison, fl ow more easily through the system, reducing the power needed for circulation.
The result is lower energy consumption, particularly in large-scale applications where systems are running 24/7. Improved heat transfer effi ciency: Another benefi t of LV HTFs is their superior ability to transfer heat. Their lower viscosity allows for faster and more effi cient heat exchange, ensuring that systems run smoothly even under heavy loads or in extreme conditions. By improving heat transfer, LV HTFs help systems maintain optimal cooling performance while using less energy, directly addressing the requirements of regulations like the EU’s Energy Effi ciency Directive, which mandates continuous improvements in energy performance across various industries. In addition to energy effi ciency, LV HTFs contribute to the longevity of refrigeration systems by reducing the strain on equipment. The lower resistance within the system leads to less wear and tear on components such as pumps and compressors. This not only improves operational reliability but also extends the life of the equipment, reducing the need for frequent repairs and replacements. By minimising mechanical stress, LV HTFs also help reduce the environmental impact associated
with the manufacturing, transportation, and disposal of replacement parts. In a world where resource conservation and waste reduction are becoming increasingly important, extending the life of equipment can make a signifi cant contribution to overall sustainability eff orts. Additionally, many LV HTFs are formulated with corrosion inhibitors that protect system components from damage, further reducing the likelihood of costly repairs and system downtime. The global push toward net-zero emissions is driving the need for more effi cient, sustainable technologies in refrigeration systems. LV HTFs provide a viable solution for operators
who are under pressure to comply with regulations, reduce energy costs, and operate systems more effi ciently. These fl uids help refrigeration systems run smoothly while cutting energy consumption, reducing emissions, and prolonging equipment life—all without sacrifi cing performance. In the broader context of climate action, the
role of LV HTFs in reducing energy consumption and emissions is critical. Whether in large-scale commercial refrigeration or industrial cooling applications, LV HTFs represent a key component in the future of green cooling.
