What is Industrial Refrigeration?
Industrial refrigeration systems are specialized, large-scale refrigeration solutions designed for commercial and industrial applications like food processing, manufacturing, pharmaceutical storage and more. Unlike residential refrigerators, industrial refrigeration systems often use ammonia or carbon dioxide (CO2) as the refrigerant, which are more environmentally friendly and energy-efficient than traditional HFC refrigerants. These systems require expert design, installation and ongoing maintenance for reliable, high-performance cooling around the clock.

How Industrial Refrigeration Works
An industrial refrigeration system is essential in many manufacturing and storage facilities. These systems are crucial in maintaining precise temperature control for various applications, from food processing and pharmaceutical storage to laboratory environments and industrial processes.
The key to understanding how industrial refrigeration works lies in the five core components of the system:
- Refrigerant: The refrigerant undergoes phase changes to absorb and release heat. Common industrial refrigerants include ammonia, R-134a, carbon dioxide and hydrocarbons. The refrigerant cycles through the system, absorbing heat from the product or environment and expelling it outside.
- Compressor: The compressor pump elevates the pressure and temperature of the refrigerant vapor as it enters the system, allowing the refrigerant to release heat in the condenser.
- Condenser: The condenser is a coil where the hot, high-pressure refrigerant releases heat, condensing it back into a liquid. Industrial systems may use air-cooled, water-cooled or evaporative condensers.
- Metering Device: The metering device, such as an expansion valve, controls the flow of liquid refrigerant into the evaporator to reduce its pressure and flow rate.
- Evaporator: The evaporator is a coil where the low-pressure, low-temperature liquid refrigerant absorbs heat from the product or environment, causing it to evaporate back into a vapor. This heat absorption provides the desired cooling effect.
These core components allow industrial refrigeration systems to maintain precise temperature and environmental control for various applications.
Reliable, Cost Effective Refrigeration Equipment Installation
Design, construction, and installation of industrial refrigeration systems is an enormous undertaking. You need a true authority in industrial refrigeration systems to install cost-effective, cutting-edge, and reliable refrigeration systems that keep the product at the proper temperature around the clock.
