The 30' Container

Specially designed as a machine container for the accommodation of the chilled water unit, air-cooled condenser, supply and return distributors, water/brine pump, and control cabinet.

The mobile cooling systems can be quickly installed and operated by ARCTOS on-site, including transport, installation, filling, commissioning, and, if necessary, maintenance.

You only need to provide electrical power and, of course, take delivery of the cooling output.

If available, the cooling production can be started on-site within 3 days.

An NH3 absorption unit ABSL175 can be optionally retrofitted to absorb refrigerant in emergency situations.

Some mobile cooling systems are equipped with titanium plate heat exchangers, allowing operation with CaCl2 / NaCl2 or other aggressive media as the coolant.

All details about our mobile replacement refrigeration can be found in our JOB REPORT ARCTOS Replacement Refrigeration.
