Solar Assisted Cooling
With its BD35F and BD35K solar compressors, Secop offers a refrigeration solution for places with poor or no power supply. Thanks to the exceptionally low starting current, batteries are not required if an ice bank is used for energy storage.
BD35F and BD35K solar compressors offer numerous functions for manufacturers within the rapidly growing area of mobile and stationary refrigeration. For example, storage and transportation of drugs, storage of food under difficult conditions without power supply, ice cream stands in holiday resorts, remote bottle coolers, refrigerators in boats, just to name a few.
At times when there is no sun, the ice packs keep the cabinet at the set temperatures.
Its wide voltage range (10–45 V DC) makes the BD very suitable for powering photovoltaic systems.
The new BD50K with its High Speed controller needs an addional capacitor or battery but offers higher cooling capacity.
An example on the latter was displayed at a UN summit in Johannesburg, South Africa. On this occasion, we supplied the compressor for a solar cabinet, complying with the tough demands of WHO (storage for 3 days without power supply).
The concept is well accepted by WHO and UNICEF today.
