How It Works
The PX G1300 works to maximize energy efficiency in CO2 systems, transferring energy from high-pressure to low-pressure. This efficient transfer of energy significantly reduces the electricity consumption of the system, lowering operating costs and emissions. The PX G1300 is able to provide both expansion and compression; it can also replace or reduce the size of existing system components, potentially lowering capital costs. Simple, modular and efficient, the PX G1300 can integrate easily into a range of systems and operating conditions whether a new or existing system.
Based on laboratory and real-life results, the PX G1300 device can increase the energy efficiency of CO2-based commercial refrigeration systems by more than 25% at 35-40°C (95-104°F) and more than 30% above 40°C (104°F), compared to a standard CO2 system with no energy recovery devices or systems.
Solutions for a Wide Range of Temperatures
Whether it’s heat waves or cold snaps, refrigeration systems need to perform. The PX G1300 offers high temperature rack stability, but also performs even more efficiently at higher temperatures. At an installation in Northern Italy, it improved efficiency by more than 30% at temperatures above 40°C (104°F).
