The EP MECA ice machine is a device that produces and stores the ice needed for cooling before use.
ONE MACHINE, ONE NEED
The ice machine makes it possible to spread cold production over time and therefore the use of smaller cooling equipment, which reduces the maximum demand at peak times, while taking advantage of the energy rate at off-peak hours.
The ice machine consists of an insulated water tank and submerged batteries of tubing that allow the circulation of the refrigerating fluid. In order to improve its efficiency, a bubbling system which allows to agitate the water is also integrated into the ice machine.
APPLICATIONS AND SPECIFICATIONS
In addition to the oil industry, this concept can be used in the food industry, chemicals, cosmetics and energy fields.
