stainless steeldouble-walledload

Overview
An ice accumulator stores cooling energy as ice and supplies it as chilled water with a delivery temperature around ±0.5°C. It buffers thermal energy to cover short-term peaks in cooling demand without requiring a proportionally larger refrigeration unit or higher electrical power capacity. The system can also be charged during off-peak hours or using alternative energy sources such as solar.

Benefits

• Environmentally friendly solution for load shifting
• Reduced energy costs by shifting consumption
• Prevents peak loads on the electrical grid

Features

• Insulated stainless steel housing
• Low maintenance requirements
• Compatible with solar or other alternative energy charging

Technical specifications
