microDS: Water-Cooled Refrigeration Systems
Revolutionize Your Retail Environment with Water-Cooled Systems
Transform your retail space into a model of sustainability and efficiency with Hussmann’s microDS water-cooled refrigeration systems. Whether you're remodeling or upgrading your current setup, microDS systems offer an energy-efficient solution that fits easily into your operations. With less refrigerant use, simple installation, and minimal downtime, microDS is an ideal choice for retailers looking to boost their environmental sustainability while improving cost-efficiency.
Hussmann's water-cooled refrigeration systems are self-contained and hermetically sealed, offering an environmentally friendly and customer-friendly solution. MicroDS water-cooled refrigeration systems are designed for easy installation with little downtime. They come pre-charged, tested, and programmed before delivery to quickly integrate into existing setups without causing disruptions.
Regulatory changes now allow for a 304g R-290 charge for cases with doors, & 494g of R-290 for open cases allowing for a single compressor unit per case & enabling use of thermostatic expansion valve. This is 90-95 percent less refrigerant than is typically used in systems charged by HFC.
R-290 has a small global warming potential (GWP) rating of 3, compared to an average HFC refrigerant, which has a GWP rating greater than 1300.
MicroDS system can provide excellent refrigeration in full-sized grocery merchandisers, even open multi-deck (up to 12 feet in length) and reach-in units up to 5 doors, a major scientific and technological achievement by Hussmann.
