ow exactly can refrigeration professionals such as yourself comply with the EU F-Gas regulation? What technologies can you use to make the transition to compliant refrigerants? And how do you specify, install, service, and use such solutions? Innovation and new approaches require know-how, and Danfoss Cooling is offering extensive, user-centric content that builds know-how by training, educating, and sharing knowledge with the company’s partners, customers, and other stakeholders, such as policy- makers, on several platforms. The consequences of climate change are becoming increasingly clear, and increasingly well-known. Extreme weather, floods, and droughts, and their human and social consequences, are making climate change an important issue on the global agenda. All over the world, authorities are acting on this knowledge, taking steps to counteract climate change by imposing regulations that affect many industries, including refrigeration and air conditioning. In the EU, for example, the F-Gas regulation will result in a gradual phase-down of HFC refrigerants towards 2030 by means of quota systems and sectorial bans on high GWP refrigerants, and manufacturers and other industry professionals are following suit. Danfoss Cooling is actively supporting the transition to more sustainable refrigeration by developing innovative solutions. Working to simultaneously keep people, products, and the planet cool, the company offers components for efficient and economical refrigeration using refrigerants such as CO2
and
intelligent control solutions that save energy by accurately adjusting system performance to current demand. The knowledge that climate change is real needs to be matched
by knowledge of solutions that can be employed to fight climate change. New technologies developed by Danfoss Cooling and other industry stakeholders create a constant need for know-how, and therefore for training and education. After all, developing and marketing climate- friendly refrigeration solutions would be all in vain if no one realised the benefits and used the solutions. Industry professionals know this and actively seek knowledge which will help them get an overview of what is possible and what is available as they work to comply with national, regional, and global regulations. Danfoss has a long history of supporting its customers through comprehensive training that satisfies the need for know-how on several levels. The aim is to support customers in building capabilities and acquiring new knowledge. Existing and prospective customers must be aware of how to use Danfoss products. They need to understand the features and the value the products can add, and they must know how to install and service them. Customers have different needs and habits, and Danfoss Cooling training therefore takes many different forms. The company makes an effort to meet and support its customers across all touch points no matter where the customers are, online or offline.
Danfoss Cooling also recently hosted the second annual Refrigerant Week, a whole week dedicated to webinars and knowledge sharing, all centred on the refrigerant challenge. All the tools and webinar recordings are available for download at
refrigerants.danfoss.com. The most widely used training offering from Danfoss Cooling is the Danfoss Learning portal, an online solution offering training courses around the clock to anyone interested

and willing to make the effort. Danfoss Learning offers around 1,500 different courses, many of them available in up to 26 languages. The system requires registration but is free of charge. It is used by Danfoss customers, partners, students, and prospective users – everyone in need of reliable information about issues such as refrigerants. Training programmes in Danfoss Learning include Refrigeration fundamentals, Cold room, Chiller, and Industrial refrigeration, to name just a few. For partners in need of specialised training, Danfoss Cooling offers tailored certification programmes. In addition to providing know- how through the channels above, Danfoss also offers several software tools that are free of charge. The HVACR Service Tool, for example, is a trouble-shooting solution designed to save valuable time in the field for contractors and service technicians, with features like digitised fitters’ notes and image recognition. Meanwhile, the Coolselector 2 software helps users specify refrigeration solutions based on parameters such as cooling capacity, refrigerant, evaporation and condensation temperature. Both tools offer unbiased, trustworthy calculations and knowledge to refrigeration professionals. The challenges of tomorrow can only rarely be solved by relying on yesterday’s technologies. New solutions need to be found, and awareness of those solutions needs to be widely available; in fact, it needs to become as widely available as the awareness of the challenges. This is why training and education is so important on all levels – from tips and tricks on how to optimise CO2
systems to analyses of how the refrigerant transition away from HFCs can contribute to a better climate worldwide.
