Danfoss presents latest innovations and applications for refrigeration and air conditioning at Chillventa

Dubai, UAE, October 15, 2018:  At this year's Chillventa, Danfoss is presenting advanced and future-oriented package solutions for refrigeration, air conditioning, and heat pump applications to an international audience of cooling professionals. Danfoss is exhibiting efficient and energy-saving applications based on advanced refrigeration and control technology in four main sectors: Food Retail, Commercial Refrigeration, Industrial Refrigeration, and Air Conditioning & Heat Pumps. Virtual presentations – including Danfoss City for air conditioning and Danfoss Smart Store for modern deployment in retail or an interactive cold room– are among the highlights of Danfoss's trade fair exhibition. Along with the application realms, Danfoss focuses on its close personal relationships with customers and partners. Around the world, Danfoss assists plant engineers, OEMs and wholesalers with advice on optimal deployment of their products and engages in discussions to jointly meet the current and future challenges of refrigeration and air conditioning technology.

True to tradition, Danfoss is located in Hall 7, booth number 7-126 at the trade fair.

Next-generation refrigerants

In 2018, the refrigeration industry will undertake major steps to reduce CO2 emissions and cut down on refrigerants with high GWP values in response to the EU regulation on fluorinated greenhouse gases. Danfoss offers a range of tools that include Danfoss Coolselector® 2, the Refrigerant Slider app, and a low-GWP tool used to identify compatible combinations of refrigerants and expansion valves. They also offer an extensive self-study program and online help for switching refrigerants, which is available in many languages. New rules require new refrigerants, so visitors can learn at the Danfoss booth which alternatives are possible and how they can meet the challenges with Danfoss products.

Solutions for food retail

With smart and integrated solutions extending from refrigerated case to the cloud, the Danfoss Smart Store offers solutions for tomorrow's food retail sector. The Multi Ejector SolutionTM is highlighted as the one of the latest technologies that enables efficient use of CO2 as a refrigerant in all store sizes, system types, and in all climate zones. Further to the CO2 theme, we will also introduce the new CO2 pack controller for smaller format stores. AKV P, the next generation of Danfoss' pulse-width modulated expansion valves, is unveiled, providing enhanced range and performance. Moreover, Danfoss will be demonstrating the Danfoss Enterprise Services, the 24/7 monitoring solution, and introduce the newest additions to the System Manager portfolio.  

A turning point in commercial refrigeration

Alternative refrigerants, IoT, and life-cycle costs are the main pillars of the Danfoss commercial refrigeration strategy. The extensive portfolio for cold rooms and the foodservice industry includes compressors, OptymaTM condensing unit family, heat exchangers, solenoid and expansion valves, and electronic controllers – now compatible with lower-GWP refrigerant alternatives to R404A and R134a. Together with microchannel solutions to reduce refrigerant charge and costs and highly efficient condensing units that surpass the EcoDesign 2018 targets, Danfoss helps to significantly reduce the payback time of the installations. Along with this, IoT and cloud solutions enable 24/7 remote monitoring and management of refrigeration systems. 

Efficient solutions for industrial refrigeration 

Efficiency is paramount in the industrial refrigeration sector. At Chillventa, Danfoss is presenting new and innovative solutions for this area. Their range of heat exchangers features an efficient and flexible design of semi-welded heat exchangers. The ICF valve station solutions also mark a new milestone on the way to efficient and climate-friendly refrigeration. With the Danfoss Flexline™ products Danfoss reflects the global need for energy efficient and climate-friendly reliable solutions for heat pumps. Finally, advanced technologies, such as the new series of Danfoss plug & play gas detection units represent a step forward towards a secure refrigeration industry.

High efficiency and low-GWP for air conditioning and heat pumps

For chillers, rooftops, close controls as well as heat pump systems, Danfoss focuses on technologies that conform to energy efficiency standards, the demand for energy savings, conversion to low-GWP refrigerants, and expectations for lower costs. 

The new Danfoss Turbocor® compressor, the pioneer in oil-free, variable-speed centrifugal compressors, is optimized for the necessary high-pressure ratios used in air-cooled refrigeration systems in hot climate zones, heat pumps, and heat recovery applications.
