The agriculture and food retail industries as we know them today rely on the reefer container. These refrigerated containers are used in freight transport to maintain the quality of temperature-controlled cargo. Everything from fruits and vegetables to meat and ice cream is stored in these containers for transportation.
A well-maintained commercial or industrial compressor can last for 10-15 years or more. With that in mind, compressor replacement is relatively rare. Unless your enterprise uses several compressors of various ages and sizes, you might buy just one in your entire career.
When you need a commercial compressor, there are three main options:
What’s the best option? Let’s take a closer look.
The compressor is one of the more expensive components to replace in a commercial HVAC system. However, the systems are built dynamically and will serve you for many years without breaking down, if you follow the appropriate maintenance procedures.
Air conditioning is easy to take for granted – but without it, some areas of the United States would be inhospitable, if not downright uninhabitable. Air conditioning is ubiquitous in the south, Midwest, and western United States in a way unmatched by any other country.
When it comes to refrigeration solutions, Danfoss offers excellent options for both residential and commercial purposes. Innovations are happening across various industries, and the dairy industry is no exception. There is a race to not only reduce operational costs but also milk prices. This race starts at the production level through the use of advanced compressors and cooling mechanisms.
HVAC systems are among the biggest energy consumers in commercial establishments. Therefore, it’s no surprise that most green initiatives and policies aim to make air conditioning systems more efficient. An article posted at the World Economic Forum paints a more ominous picture -- commercial air conditioning is a big hindrance to efforts aimed at tackling climate change.
How can you accurately identify a new or remanufactured compressor straight out of the box? The answer is: you most likely can’t, unless you are a commercial compressor repair expert.
Five decades is a long time in technology circles. Talking about air conditioning technology, the A/C industry has gone from the basic ventilation and cooling systems used in mines to Willis Carrier’s implementation of a commercial air conditioning system over a century ago.
Installing remanufactured compressors rather than new units is a recommended green approach of renewing industrial warehouse cooling systems. By choosing a remanufactured compressor, you are essentially sidestepping the energy-intensive processes of creating the main compressor body and accessories, which typically involve smelting steel from raw materials.
