In 2021, Actrol had some exciting new product launches, below are some of the highlights:
The Refco Refmesh app. The app now integrates with three new Refco products, REVAC (digital vacuum gauge), REFSCALE (electronic charging scale) and TRITECTOR (3-in-1 leak detector). All connected devices communicate wirelessly and can be used as part of the network or stand-alone. Integrated screens display readings at the point of installation, and in real time on the REFMATE and in the REFMESH app.
The Recfo Portable Lifter. The new Refco LFT-230 does all the heavy lifting. The lifter lifts up to 120kg with telescopic arm up to 3 meters. This lifter can be controlled by remote and has a carry bag to make transporting a breeze.
Kaden R32 wall hung split.. The new KSI range is Wi-Fi compatible and features a more compact design being 25% lighter and 20% smaller in size. Built tough to withstand Australia's harsh weather conditioners with a superior ambient operating temperature range from -15°C - 50°C.
Tecumseh’s new FH2 Compressor. Designed to be more robust and reliable for the demands of commercial refrigeration applications. The FH2 is more compact in size compared to previous models, bolstering more energy efficient performance and better acoustics.
Digital Services
Actrol is continuing to look for ways to give customers more time to do things that matter. The wholesaler recognises the importance of helping customers digitise, leading the way with business support apps such as maX, the online management system.
maX gives customers access to product pricing and allows them to build product lists, manage their account, generate quotes and even place orders online. maX integrates seamlessly with leading accounting software like MYOB and Xero and job management platforms like Aroflo, Fieldpulse, Fergus and SimPro.
Alongside maX is Flexitrak, offering a complete refrigeration cylinder management tool. Actrol customers can easily track, measure, and transfer cylinders. Flexitrak reduces cylinder loss, manages refrigerant usage more efficiently and offers cost saving for businesses.
Actrol will continue to support customers with the highest quality products and services, where and when they need it. Actrol has a strong focus on increasing install efficiency, product innovation and technology when selecting and installing. Through ongoing support, engineering advice and the right tools, Actrol strives to give customers back time in their day to grow their business.
