Danfoss simplifies CO2 system control

DENMARK: The new Danfoss AK-PC 572 MiniPack controller is said to provide a complete pack solution for small store retailers looking to benefit from using CO2 as a refrigerant. 

The AK-PC 572 MiniPack is also said to make using CO2 much more approachable, even for those who have little-to-no experience with it. 

Danfoss has designed the AK-PC 572 to contain all the essential functionality of a dedicated CO2 controller, but with reduced complexity and ease of use. It comes with a pre-configured wizard, optimised for the fast and simple setup of CO2 systems.
