Award-winning Rack System Cuts Energy Consumption Up To 25%
Master-Bilt’s GPS series glycol parallel rack systems use a high efficiency refrigeration system to chill a glycol loop, which is then used to cool various refrigeration equipment in a foodservice kitchen or retail environment. The GPS series system has received a 2013 “Kitchen Innovations” Award from the National Restaurant Association. The system cools a brazed-plate heat exchanger,
which removes the heat from the glycol loop. The glycol is then circulated by a high efficiency variable speed pump to the kitchen fixtures. Sources say the most unique feature of the Master-Bilt glycol system is that it uses floating heat pressure technology to lower the energy consumption of the refrigeration system by as much as 25%. The system also uses full digital controls rather than mechanical controls used in competitive equipment. State-of-the-art digital controls provide greater precision, diagnostics, data logging and monitoring capability. The glycol system saves energy and uses a reduced refrigerant charge, which is completely contained within the wall of the parallel rack system. Only the chilled glycol is distributed to the kitchen. Less refrigerant and piping mean less chance of refrigerant leaks. — Master-Bilt master-bilt.com
