Smartcool Systems Inc. Providing effective and reliable energy efficiency solutions for HVAC-R customers around the globe.
What Does Smartcool Do? • Smartcool reduces the electricity usage (kWh) and demand (kW) of air conditioning, refrigeration and heat pump systems by improving the energy efficiency of their compressors. • Smartcool delivers cutting edge energy efficiency and cost reduction solutions for customers around the world • The ECO3, a modular retrofit technology, can be applied in air conditioning, refrigeration and heat pumps systems • Average payback period for customers is 18 to 36 months.
ECO3 Features • Reduces compressor run times • Usage (kWh) savings averaging 15% • Interfaces with existing controls • No risk to current equipment or effect on manufacturer warranty • Maintains temperature performance • Optimizes efficiency of the cooling & heating cycles on compressor driven heat pump units • Two models: • Single Channel, for use with a single compressor • Dual Channel, use with two compressors cooling same controlled space
Overview of the ECO3 • No risk technology: • Temperature performance is unaffected • Equipment warranties are unaffected • Will always fail to safe and can be manually bypassed at any time • Does not allow over-cycling of compressors • Rapid installation by trained technicians means minimal system downtime. • Technology verified and proven to work by independent third party testing and over 30,000 installations worldwide. • Easily verifiable energy savings provide peace of mind and the ability to qualify for government or utility rebates and other financial incentives. • Smartcool’s patented compressor optimization algorithm is used by the ECO3 to reduce the run time of compressors by 15% to 40%. This reduces kWh usage by an average of 15% and kW demand by an average of 10%.
Background Theory • Chart illustrates the percentage of energy used per drop in temperature degree. • The last degree of pull down uses 28% of the total energy for the cycle Unfortunately, this increases the mid point temperature from 7.5°C to 8°C.
Technology Overview • Compressor optimization dynamically adjusts the length of each operating cycle in order to have the compressor run more often at a higher suction pressure where it is most energy efficient. • Smartcool achieves greater energy efficiency for the compressor without allowing the compressor to short cycle and without affecting the controlled space temperature.
Compressor Optimization • Designed to work with the existing HVAC equipment, along with the current control methodology, to reduce energy consumption • When a call for cooling comes from the existing controller, the advanced control module takes over to determine when, and for how long, each compressor or unloader will run • This advanced control technology enables the compressor to maximize the rate of heat removal by optimizing the natural physical properties of the compressor operating cycle • This solution is used by thousands of packaged air conditioning, refrigeration and heat pump systems around the globe.
Save Energy and Save Money • International energy consumption is projected to increase by 50% by the year 2030 • Energy costs and green house emissions will continue to rise, resulting in significant environmental and financial impacts • Energy efficiency can curb these increases and produce environmental and financial benefits • Smartcool’s average return on investment is 18-36 months
