Heatcraft Australia has leveraged advanced semi-hermetic compressor technology to provide its customers with a premium Kirby Integrated Rack solution providing extensive benefits to the end user.
The Kirby Integrated Rack systems developed by Heatcraft Australia features Copeland Stream compressors with CoreSense Diagnostics providing a completely integrated electrical control panel that is optimised through the use of the Stream compressors.
The switchboard is factory fitted with electronics and complete rack wiring shipped in a “ready-to run” configuration.
Heatcraft A/NZ refrigeration equipment business manager, Brett Hedge, said that while customers enjoy the immediate benefits of reduced cost through faster and simplified installation, the true long term benefits develop from the integration of the system controls and compressor diagnostics.
"The Copeland Stream compressors are the most technologically advanced semi-hermetic reciprocating compressors available,” he said.
“The benefits of advanced compressor technologies are gaining traction with the CoreSense technology incorporated in over 50 per cent of the integrated racks currently being sold to customers.
“The CoreSense capability provides protection for the compressor and system against critical faults. This is ideal for applications that have fluctuations in system demand.”
In application, the CoreSense has the ability to forewarn technicians of a potential field failure, so system related problems can be diagnosed faster or even before they occur. This saves the cost of repairs, prevents food spoilage and loss of storage temperature.
"Our customers can provide their clients a complete integral rack solution, providing savings through an optimised switchboard that also greatly reduces the installation and commissioning time,” Hedge said.
“In addition, the customer is only dealing with one manufacturer for wholesale components and warranty issues, should they arise. The Kirby integrated racks from Heatcraft are designed to meet Australian / New Zealand standards and are assembled locally at the company’s Milperra, NSW site.
