THE 7 FACTORS YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT

The 7 factors that must be taken into account to optimize refrigeration installations, improving their effectiveness and guaranteeing quality and intelligent management of the cold chain.

9% food waste

  • Up to 9% of food losses occur in cold rooms due to an inadequate storage temperature and the lack of information on the environmental conditions inside.
  • Every year 1 in 10 people is affected by an easily preventable foodborne disease with efficient management of environmental conditions during the handling of perishable food.

33% in losses of stored product

  • Up to 33% of perishable product suffers deterioration before being consumed due to inadequate storage conditions and ignorance of the state of the food.

15% more electricity consumption

  • Commercial refrigeration has a gas leak rate of between 15% and up to 33% per year on average. Up to 20% of total leaks occur in the sales room and up to 40% in the compressor room.
  • An installation operating at 80% of its nominal gas load increases its electricity consumption by 15%.

Sanctions

  • Current regulations require the installation of alarm systems to guarantee the safety of individuals inside cold rooms, workrooms, preparation rooms and compressor rooms.

Personal risks

  • The formation of ice on the refrigerator doors causes blockages, slippery floors that cause accidents and the growth of bacteria and mold that cause product losses.

35% less power consumption

  • In a supermarket, electricity consumption from refrigeration accounts for approximately 66% of total consumption. Cold room stores account for a third of this consumption.
  • Smart control AKOCORE ADVANCE with Self-Drive algorithm® reduces the electricity consumption of cold rooms stores by up to 35%.

15% call-outs

  • Between 10% – 15% of post-sale interventions are associated with inappropriate parameter adjustments or manipulations and can be easily avoided with self-adapting control systems.

Preventive maintenance of commercial refrigeration equipment

Preventive maintenance of commercial and industrial refrigeration equipment has a direct impact on day-to-day business, considerably reducing costs due to loss of product and energy consumption both interms of refrigerant gases and power Preventive maintenance helps us to prolong the optimal functioning of the machinery and systems involved in the cold chain.

Implementing a preventive maintenance protocol has a direct economic impact, achieving energy savings and a longer useful life of the system. Without this protocol and control of your refrigeration systems, you’ll soon see your expenses for repairs, consumption and product losses increase day by day.

Installation remote management and monitoring system

Connected monitoring or remote management helps to optimize the maintenance and operation of our facilities. Being connected to a remote management system, it allows you to control what is happening and to be able to anticipate possible breakdowns in real time.

AKO has created AKONET.Cloud, an intelligent monitoring and control software that allows you to know the status of your installations from anywhere, and provides you with relevant information for making strategic decisions.
