Powerful, Energy-Efficient and Sustainable /// Temperature control featuring natural refrigerant R290 We Care ! In laboratories worldwide, sustainability and efficiency are becoming increasingly important. This is not only a question of constantly stricter legal regulations, but also an issue of corporate image. However, those who work in an environmentally friendly manner and save resources in laboratory operations not only fulfill sustainability goals better, but also reduce costs in terms of total cost of ownership (TCO). But how can this be done? Two design measures on temperature control devices make a major contribution to environmental protection and, at the same time, reduce operating costs and increase power density: › Natural instead of fluorinated refrigerants › Demand-controlled temperature control devices

Refrigerant in temperature control devices Even today, many common refrigerants are partially fluorinated. These contribute to the greenhouse effect and thus to climate change. A reduction of the Global Warming Potential (GWP) of refrigerants is therefore politically desired. Since 2020, certain refrigeration machines may no longer be supplied with R134a. By 2030, fluorinated refrigerants are to be reduced to one-fifth of the volume still placed on the market in 2015. In the USA, this will already be completely banned by 2024. But how exactly does more sustainable cooling work? The natural refrigerant...

Demand-controlled for even more sustainability The units in IKA's RC lite/ basic/ control as well as HRC basic and control series differ significantly from other devices. Their core is a speed-controlled compressor, which is used to react to the current cooling power requirement. Depending on the load or the required cooling capacity, the unit can thus flexibly adjust its output. If little power is required, the compressor runs at low speed. Further advantages › very quiet operation › enormous energy savings are possible › permanent switching on and off of the unit is therefore not necessary...
