IDEA® DEFROSTING SYSTEM
“Patented” defrosting system with dynamic reading of working
parameters. Thanks to proprietary software it senses the real
presence of brine on the coil starting defrosting cycles only in that situation. This brings a remarkable energy saving (more than 20-
30% on the average) and a higher working continuity compared with
traditional systems.

WORKING LIMITS IN COOLING MODE
Chilled water outlet temperature: -12÷20°C Ambient temperature: -10÷45°C

PLANT HEAT EXCHANGER
Copper brazed plate type with cover plates, plates and connections in AISI
316 stainless steel:
Single circuit on water side .
Single refrigerant circuit for S version machines.
Double refrigerant circuit for D version machines.
Anticondensate insulation made of polyurethane.
Temperature sensors on water inlet and outlet.
Factory assembled differential water pressure switch for water flow control.

Antifreeze heater.

AIR/GAS HEAT EXCHANGER
Heat exchanger coil with internally corrugated copper tubes and high efficiency aluminium fins, specifically developed to provide high heat transfer and lower pressure drops. The combination of two factors, special tubes and fins, allow to optimally combine the following aspects:
Maximum capacity relative to the size of the exchanger.
Minimum charge of refrigerant.
Reduction of the air flow required for the heat exchange.
Particular circulation on refrigerant side, in order to optimize performance in heat pump mode.
Frame in galvanized steel.
Temperature sensor on ambient air.

FANS SECTION
Axial fans with sickle-shaped blades, fan guard and optimized for low noise
levels.
AC type electric motor for condensing pressure control (in summer working mode) or evaporating pressure control (in winter working mode) with stepless variable speed of the axial fans.
IP54 enclosure class.
