Hillphoenix has launched AdvansorUltra, its first standardised industrial CO2 rack, strengthening the company's position in the rapidly growing industrial refrigeration market.
The launch advances Hillphoenix's long-term strategy to capitalise on the accelerating adoption of transcritical CO2 refrigeration across cold storage, food processing, and pharmaceutical end markets.
AdvansorUltra reflects the evolution from Hillphoenix's engineered-to-order approach for industrial CO2 systems to a scalable platform model.
Senior product manager of Industrial Refrigeration Systems for Hillphoenix, Ousama Sabra, said this platform solution enables the company to consistently control quality and reduce lead times to meet market demands all while providing a product solution focused on customer needs.
Key features of AdvansorUltra:
- High Capacity: AdvansorUltra offers capacities up to 450TR (1,583kW) per rack. Large facilities may utilize multiple racks.
- Temperature Range: Handles temperatures typically ranging from -25 to 20F (-32 to -7C) and as low as -57F (-48C) for specialized applications like spiral freezing.
- Improved Serviceability: The platform design provides technicians with isolated and better access to serviceable parts to perform most service events without system shutdown.
- Optional Features: Includes parallel compression, various heat reclaim options (air, water, hydronic), and Hillphoenix's ChargeSecure charge-preservation system.
In connection with this launch, Hillphoenix has also upgraded its training facility in Conyers, Georgia, to help bridge the knowledge gap for technicians transitioning from traditional refrigerant systems to transcritical CO2 systems.
