RW Refrigeration Wholesale
The ‘Fridgesplits’ range has been launched by RW Refrigeration Wholesale. Fridgesplits is a range of refrigeration systems designed to take the guesswork out of cold room and freezer room selections. Ease of selection, efficiency, extended three year warranty, local stock and cost effectiveness were all considered and wrapped up in a simple package.
The initial ‘Fridgesplit Standard’ range is targeted at a very competitive market and sees a Danfoss Optyma condensing unit perfectly matched to a Modine ECO evaporator with the option of a ‘control’ pack. Capacity duties range from 1kW to 5.4 kW. Other systems will regularly be added to the range, with the next being the ‘Fridgesplit Premium’ which incorporates additional features to the Fridgesplit Standard including the Danfoss Optyma Plus condensing units matched to LU-VE evaporators. The Fridgesplit Premium will offer increased capacity, fan speed control, mains isolator and a network-able electronic controller.
Howard Noble, innovation and marketing director said: “We have been working with this concept for a long time. Before launching we needed to ensure we partnered with the right suppliers to ensure our criteria of quality, competitiveness were met along with ease of use.”

Blygold
Due to the recent and ongoing pandemic we are becoming increasingly aware of the effect of viral infection and microbiological infestation. A paper entitled Detection of Airborne Rhinovirus and Its Relation to Outdoor Air Supply in Office Environments was published in the American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine vol 169 2004; one of the conclusions was that upper respiratory tract infections were more frequent in air-conditioned buildings. Heat exchangers in air-conditioning used to cool down an airstream or room, are often exposed to corrosive environments and microbiological infestation. The condensation on the fins and the airborne pollution create the perfect conditions for both phenomena, corrosion and microbiological growth.
Blygold PoluAl XT-MB is an anti-bacteria, corrosion protective coating for AHUs and HVAC coils : The coating shields vulnerable metals from aggressive environments. The aluminium content in the coating provides the necessary heat transfer Special additives ensure the applied coating film is bacteria and fungi resistant.
Fully tested and approved (Fungi resistance Din EN ISO 846 method B - results are available upon request).

Scotsman has added to its ultra-hygienic XSafe range with the launch of EC and MXG versions, both of which make supercube gourmet ice cubes. EC models are undercounter machines with self-contained storage bins, offering production rates of from 25 to 145kg of ice per day. Their integral drain water pump means they are much easier to install than conventional undercounter machines. The MXGs are modular machines designed to sit on top of an ice storage bin. They offer production rates of from 152 to 400kg per day. The XSafe technology uses ozone, generated by ultraviolet light,
to create activated oxygen, which destroys bacteria and viruses while significantly inhibiting the growth of nasties like mould, mildew, yeast, slime and odours. Because the activated oxygen is blown throughout the ice machine, it creates an hygienic environment, enhancing the cleanliness of the ice and hence improving food safety. In lab tests against known viruses XSafe technology has been found to eliminate 99.9 % respiratory viruses in 0.44 seconds and will eradicate coronaviruses. Unlike ordinary ice machines, which have to be sited near to and above
the drains, the EC’s integral pump means they can be sited some distance from the drains, and even at a lower level.

Carrier
Carrier has developed an ultra-slim fan coil unit (FCU) designed to maximise living space in high rise residential buildings, boosting return on investment (ROI) for developers. At just 150mm high, Carrier’s new Idrofan 42EP range of ducted horizontal FCUs is the slimmest of its kind available. The unit has a noise ratings as low as NR22, making it particularly attractive for use in residential and hotel applications. It is also ideal for use in commercial offices, where similar space constraints and expectations for high performance increasingly apply.
The unit requires around 30% less void height for installation compared with standard units, creating significant additional useable space within a building envelope. Alternatively, space saved can be used to add additional stories within a given permitted building height. In the case of a 50-storey building, for example, where each floor is equipped with 42EP units, this equates to five meters of extra vertical space, creating an opportunity to add an additional floor within the permitted building height. The ultra-slimline profile was made possible by a number of design innovations, including a new patented internal lay-out that incorporates a split supply and return chamber before the cooling coil. This enables use of a compact plug fan, which is perfectly positioned to minimise the use of internal space within the unit, instead of a standard bulky centrifugal fan.
