Refrigeration Cycle

Refrigeration Cycle for Residential and Commercial Air Conditioning and Refrigeration Systems

Air conditioning manufacturers are increasingly confronted with complex design challenges due to stricter regulations, demanding HVAC environments, lower leakage rates, and the move to lower global warming potential and natural refrigerants.
For large facilities like office buildings, hospitals, restaurants, hotels and other public locations, rooftops and chillers are widely used for cooling buildings. They are complex, costly systems, that consume more energy than any other piece of equipment in large buildings, therefore operating them smartly can lead to important energy and cost savings.

Food waste reduction, decentralization of supermarkets and refrigerated food storage units, and the need to lower the overall carbon footprint are driving huge shifts in the supermarket refrigeration sector.

Strategies include better control of pressure and temperature monitoring, minimizing refrigerant leakage, and better component selection such as compressors, heat exchangers, pressure and temperature sensors and controls.

Sensata’s pressure sensors ensure higher efficiency in air conditioning and refrigeration system operation, allowing real time monitoring, system automation and maintenance feedback, while switches and thermostats provide the crucial safety factor.
