Cold room split for A2L refrigerants

UK: Marstair has announced the introduction of its new A2L SysteMatch cold room refrigeration split system, specifically designed for lower GWP A2L refrigerants.

Engineered to keep the refrigerant charge to a minimum, the A2L SysteMatch has been manufactured to meet BS EN 378: 2016 standards. 

Suitable for a variety of A2L refrigerants including R454A, R454C and R455A, Marstair says the refrigerant charge for any system match with a known pipe run can be easily calculated.

The range of condensing units and cold room evaporators available can be mix-matched to suit specific room temperature requirements, with duty range of 1kW-6kW. 

Installed using standard controllers, it is also suitable for applications with up to 80m pipe runs, and requires no extra safety measures. To support this, Marstair also provide a DSEAR risk assessment template within its instructions giving best practice installation guidance to installers.

Marstair says these new systems are also 3% more efficient than its existing ECO design certified and ETL listed range of condensing units.
