Australia’s industrial sector is pivotal to the economy, and energy-efficient solutions are essential in today’s sustainability-focused world. Rittal’s Blue e+ S cooling units set a new standard for sustainable industrial cooling, offering unmatched energy efficiency and reliability.
A recent case study from a leading US brewery highlights the effectiveness of these units. The brewery faced high energy consumption and operational inefficiencies due to outdated cooling systems over 15 years old. These aging units not only escalated energy costs but also posed risks to operational reliability because of limited spare parts availability.
Rittal addressed these challenges with a comprehensive solution. An in-depth analysis streamlined the number of cooling models from 72 to 10, ensuring precise matches between units and specific requirements. The Blue e+ S units, with their multi-voltage capability, facilitated global deployment and scalability. This approach improved energy efficiency and simplified maintenance and operations.
The results were immediate and impressive. The brewery achieved energy savings of 82% to 85% after switching to Blue e+ S units. This dramatic improvement led to the standardisation of these units across all their locations, ensuring consistent and efficient operations. With the highest Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER) on the market at 7.2, the Blue e+ S units provided sustainable cooling with a reliable and lasting design.
Rittal’s Blue e+ S units not only cut costs but also reduce emissions. Covering output categories from 300 to 1000 W, these units feature a new refrigerant that lowers the Global Warming Potential by 56%. With advanced climate control technology, they maintain optimal enclosure temperatures and enhance efficiency.
Rittal’s Blue e+ S cooling units offer several key benefits:
- Energy Savings: Achieve average energy savings of 75%, reducing carbon footprints and operational costs.
- Longer Component Life: Speed-controlled cooling extends the working life of installed components.
- Carbon Reduction: Annual carbon savings per unit equate to the CO₂ absorption of 80 trees.
- Global Usability: Multi-voltage capability for applications worldwide.
- IoT Integration: Enhanced efficiency and monitoring with smart apps and services.
Since its launch in 2015, the Blue e+ technology has continuously evolved to deliver exceptional energy efficiency and reduced temperature fluctuations. The new Blue e+ S units, designed for outputs of 300 to 1000 W, offer superior energy efficiency, easy installation, and digital connectivity.
As Australia works towards its sustainability targets, businesses adopting Rittal’s technology will lead the way. The Blue e+ S units are more than just cooling systems; they represent a commitment to a greener future.
