Refrigeration Systems
Energy Savings
FortaCool® Variable Speed systems
by Advanced, Inc. are energy efficient
refrigeration compressor systems
guaranteed to give customers amazing
savings on energy costs, as well as savings
on overall cost of ownership.
Remote Communications
Off-site maintenance and system
management allow remote technicians
to troubleshoot and monitor systems in
real-time, reducing service calls, increasing
efficiency, and decreasing the overall cost of
ownership.
Variable Speed
Variable Frequency Drives lower energy
consumption because the compressors only
run at the speed necessary to match the
refrigeration loads. Demand charges are
greatly reduced because the compressors
are “soft started” and run at reduced RPMs.
Conventional compressors come to operating speed from a dead
stop to 1800 or even 3600rpm within one second, putting significant
physical stress on the motor, causing more failures and higher
maintenance costs. Over 500% of normal running power is needed
to start conventional motors, resulting in a power “spike” with high
“demand charges” which can have a considerable effect on electric
KW usage rates. The key to our energy efficiencies is the Advanced
Control Strategy ™. Our Variable Speed Drives control the speed of
the motors as needed, bringing the motors to operating speed by
soft starting them, resulting in a more energy efficient system.
FortaCool® Variable Speed Compressor Racks are proven to be 20-
50% more efficient than conventional systems, resulting in enormous
energy savings for our customers. Variable Speed equals consistent
saturated suction temperatures, which translates to stable product
temperatures and puts less stress on persihable products. This
results in superior overall product integrity.
