Case Study Food Process Refrigeration Milk Chilling
A milk storage tank has been successfully converted from R22 to R407C, an HFC with expected long term availability into the future.The system comprised of two bulk storage tanks fitted with two refrigeration units running in parallel. The units used Prestcold compressors with air cooled condensers. One system was converted to R407C while the other was left running on R22 for reference.The retrofit was carried out using the now well documented procedure for converting to R134a.
