Case Study / CO2 Refrigeration
The PX G1300 pressure exchanger supports your transition to CO2 refrigeration by increasing energy efficiency and safeguarding against heat waves. The PX G1300 saves energy, decreases water usage in water savings mode, and provides operational reliability. When a rack is under high temperature stress, the PX G1300 offers extra capacity and high temperature rack stability to protect against high-pressure discharge failure and associated downtime.


Reduce power consumption with projected annual energy savings of up to 15%. *
Drastically reduce water consumption of adiabatic water cooler systems in water savings mode.
Add to existing systems and safeguard against heat waves.
Maximize emissions reductions potential with an energy efficient, PX G1300-enabled system.
Discover the performance gains achieved by incorporating the PX G1300 into diverse CO2 refrigeration system designs and load sizes in our latest white paper.

At its core, the PX G1300 pressure exchanger improves the efficiency of a CO2 refrigeration system by recovering the high-pressure energy from the exit of the gas cooler that would have otherwise been wasted. It expands the refrigerant, like a valve, but recovers the expansion energy and provides compression. This lowers the workload on the main compressor rack, reducing energy usage and increasing system capacity without water.

For 30 years, Energy Recovery’s technology has provided significant energy and cost savings for our customers in desalination. Our leading PX® Pressure Exchanger® is a globally trusted technology with a long history providing efficiency, installed capital cost (CAPEX) reduction, and operational reliability.
