When selecting new commercial refrigeration equipment, it’s essential to consider the environmental conditions of the space where the unit will be installed. Key factors include ambient temperature, humidity, and air ventilation. These conditions directly affect the performance, efficiency, and lifespan of commercial refrigeration units.
All commercial refrigeration will show information about their Climate Class on the energy label (if appropriate), technical data sheet and/or manufacturers brochure pages.
Climate Class information will show the maximum ambient working temperature and relative humidity in which the cabinet has been designed to work efficiently.
Climate Class information is provided is by refrigeration equipment manufacturers for the use of distributors, installers and businesses using the equipment.
Here at angelrefrigeration.co.uk you will find the Climate Class information on the product page in the Temperature/Climate section.
The Climate Class of a commercial refrigerator or freezer forms an important part of the decision-making process when choosing what equipment to buy and where to position the equipment.
Climate Class provides information about the ambient operating conditions in which the refrigerated equipment has been designed to work. Understanding the Climate Class is an important aspect of ensuring your refrigeration works as efficiently as it has been designed to work, preserving precious ingredients, food and drink products.
Using commercial refrigeration equipment outside of the stipulated Climate Class can lead to significant temperature and energy performance issues.
Each Climate Class represents specific environmental conditions. Selecting a refrigeration unit with the appropriate climate class ensures optimal performance.
Here is a breakdown of the Climate Classes you can expect for the refrigerated cooling, display, production and storage equipment we offer.
Climate Class 3:maximum ambient temperature +25°C with 60% RH
Climate Class 4:maximum ambient temperature +30°C with 55% RH
Climate Class 5: maximum ambient temperature +40°C with 40% RH
N Class (temperature class): ambient of +16°C and +32°C
SN Class (extended temperature class): ambient temperature between +10°C and maximum +32°C
ST Class (sub-tropical class): ambient temperature between +18°C and maximum +38°C
SN-T Class (tropical class): ambient temperature between +18°C maximum +43°C ambient temperature
When choosing new commercial refrigeration, it is important to study both the Climate Class and Energy Label information as the information related to different aspects of the equipment.
The objective of energy labelling is to reduce energy consumption, by manufacturers bringing increasingly efficient products into the market and for business to make more informed decisions when selecting new commercial refrigeration.
Here in the UK, the information for all commercial refrigerated storage cabinets must include an Energy Label. This includes:
It is important to remember that open top, open fronted and glass door display refrigeration such as Serve Over Counters, Self Service Merchandisers and Multidecks are most likely to be affected by their operating environment.
The proximity air conditioning, open doors, shop window, heat from other refrigeration equipment or ovens can quickly make an impact on the ambient conditions.
Our team at Angel Refrigeration would be pleased to answer questions you may have regarding Climate Class, Energy Labels or any further information you may need as part of your refrigeration selection process.
