Marine Refrigeration Controls and Systems typically include the following specifications:
Size: Compact to large-scale systems, ranging from 1 HP to 100+ HP depending on vessel requirements.
Grade: Industrial-grade, marine-certified (e.g., ABS, DNV, or Lloyd’s Register approved).
Viscosity: Refrigerant viscosity varies by type (e.g., R404A, R134a, ammonia) and operating conditions.
Buoyancy: Systems are designed to withstand marine conditions, with buoyancy considerations for floating components.
Material: Corrosion-resistant materials (stainless steel, copper, aluminum) for durability in saltwater environments.
Temperature Range: Typically -40°C to +50°C for standard marine refrigeration applications.
Pressure Rating: High-pressure systems (up to 300 psi or more) for efficient cooling.
Power Supply: 24V DC, 110V AC, or 220V AC, depending on vessel electrical systems.
Control Type: Digital or analog controls with automated defrost and temperature monitoring.
Refrigerant Type: Eco-friendly options (e.g., R134a, R404A) or ammonia for industrial use.
Insulation: High-density foam or fiberglass to minimize heat transfer.
Weight: Varies by system size, typically 50 kg to 1000+ kg for large installations.
