Carsten Dahlgaard - Refrigerants trends in industrial refrigeration



PDF document
published on 7 April 2015

Carsten Dahlgaard from Danfoss presented on trends in industrial refrigeration, focusing on regulations, the environment and cost & profitability. He concluded that ammonia is the most dominant refrigerant within industrial refrigeration. It is well-proven and effective; however, its toxicity needs to be addressed by carefully evaluating system design and location. Dahlgaard emphasised the importance of safety, stating that "state of the art" standards, guidelines and management systems need to be fulfilled. According to Dahlgaard, low charge systems are a must in many locations to minimise risk.
