refrigeration systems

Industrial cooling equipment

Refrigeration systems are mechanical or chemical setups that remove heat from a space or substance to lower its temperature, used in everything from household refrigerators and air conditioners to industrial cold storage and food transport.

Most work by cycling a refrigerant through compression and expansion stages, absorbing heat in one location and releasing it in another.

The building's refrigeration systems failed during the power outage, spoiling thousands of dollars in inventory.
