Mobile Backup Refrigeration Unit for the Pharmaceutical Industry
Sometimes industrial refrigeration needs backup units, active at well-defined times in the company’s productivity: this is the case of the Italian headquarters of a pharmaceutical multinational, to which Frigofluid supplied a removable chiller.

Removable custom cooler: the requirement
When an industrial plant is expanded, the industrial refrigeration section must also be able to scale up with the addition of new chiller units. However, for different plant requirements over time, customised solutions can be considered: such as the custom chiller equipped with wheels, requested by a company in the chemical-pharmaceutical sector.
The customer for this customised solution is a group with 100 years of history in the production of pharmaceuticals. The basic product selected by Frigofluid, in agreement with the customer, is an RWA 4 ax air-cooled chiller: electronically controlled axial fan for modulation of operating parameters, internal storage at atmospheric pressure. Power requirement: 3.9 kW. We are therefore talking about a model for limited performance, to which we have added the possibility of easy transport on wheels.
The refrigerant gas used is R513A, with a GWP (Global Warming Potential) of low environmental impact.
All Frigofluid units are prepared for remote control: the customer can therefore monitor parameters, performance and operation of the machine even from a company management system.

RW ax Liquid Chiller
These liquid chillers combine efficiency and performance control with brushless axial fans: they are chillers suitable for achieving average fluid outlet temperatures while optimizing energy use. In standard execution, ambient temperatures up to +40°C are allowed, but set-ups for even higher ambient temperatures can be requested.

Chillers for Chemical and Pharmaceutical Industry
One peculiarity is required of chillers for chemical and pharmaceutical industry: to ensure operational continuity and thus adapt cooling capacity quickly to fluctuations in cooling demand.
