A new exclusive project of CO2 equipment and solutions for the Latin American refrigeration sector was presented by the Mayekawa do Brasil group and the German company Teko, choosing the consultancy and products offered by Frascold S.p.A. as the heart of the project.

The demand for refrigeration systems characterized by the use of ecological alternatives is constantly growing and for this reason Frascold S.p.A. has chosen as a priority challenge to raise awareness of the market towards this new eco-sustainable direction. The Montreal Protocol and the Kigali amendment are in fact pushing the market today to engage in an ever greater use of natural gas, focusing on the issues of environmental sustainability and energy saving. Thanks to the constant work of the entire research and development team, Frascold assumes a crucial role in this regard, constantly striving to define new standards of reliability, sustainability and performance for the entire range of products offered.

CO2 is today the natural refrigerant on which the most relevant expectations are placed, leading transcritical CO2 systems to be the most efficient way for all low temperature cooling systems for various sectors, including the retail sale of products. food and all distribution centers with a cold to moderate climate.

The use of CO2 as a refrigerant in fact ensures numerous benefits from an environmental point of view, with an ODP equal to zero and a GWP equal to 1. Being non-toxic and non-flammable, it has advantageous thermo physical properties, including an excellent heat transfer coefficient, reduced sensitivity to pressure losses and extremely low viscosity. By virtue of all these positive aspects and the long experience gained over the years, Frascold offers a complete range in continuous expansion of compressors for subcritical and transcritical CO2 systems.

Frascold solutions also boast minimal oil drag, thanks to the exclusive piston design, characterized by three sealing rings and a fourth oil scraper, to guarantee maximum reliability and efficiency.

The very low level of vibrations, the best smooth running and minimum noise are unique characteristics that distinguish Frascold compressors on the entire refrigeration and air conditioning market.
