CTS is a pioneering force in CO2 refrigeration technology for environmental simulation systems. Already since 2018, it has been at the forefront of CO2 deep-cooling. Now, CTS is further expanding its CO2 product portfolio with pure CO2 refrigeration technology, in perfect alignment with the new F-Gas Regulation and sustainability goals.
Navigating the New F-Gas Regulation
The new EU Regulation 2024/573, effective on March 11, 2024, mandates significant changes in refrigerant usage. The regulation introduces stringent restrictions on high-GWP refrigerants, driving the transition to more sustainable options like CO2.
Key points of the regulation include:
- Reduction of High-GWP Refrigerants: HFCs and HFOs are to be reduced by 95% by 2030, aiming for zero by 2050. This includes refrigerants with a very high GWP, such as R23.
- GWP Limits for New Equipment: From 2025, new refrigeration systems must have a GWP below 150, making CO2 the only viable non-flammable refrigerant for environmental simulation systems.
Advancing with Pure CO2 Cooling
CTS is advancing towards pure CO2 cooling in response to these regulatory changes. CTS solutions are tailored to meet the stringent environmental standards and provide numerous benefits:
- Versatile and Efficient Cooling: CTS systems offer single-stage, two-stage, and cascade configurations with CO2 pre-cooling and deep-freezing stages. This flexibility ensures optimal application performance, including automotive testing at -40°C.
- Sustainable and Safe: CO2 (R744) is a natural refrigerant that is non-toxic, non-flammable, and available globally in unlimited quantities. It is a cost-effective and environmentally friendly alternative to synthetic refrigerants.
The Future of Refrigeration with CTS
CTS products not only meet the current standards but also anticipate future regulations, ensuring long-term viability and environmental responsibility.
By choosing CTS, you invest in advanced, sustainable cooling solutions contributing to a greener future.
