Meat and food processing
Cutting, fast freezing, curing and cured meats. Refrigeration takes most of the electrical consumption and steam most of the thermal, with CIP cleaning as the hidden load that is almost never metered separately.
- Refrigeration: NH₃ compressors, cold rooms at −25 °C and 0 °C with very different demands.
- Steam and CIP: boilers holding temperature between cleans, outside duty cycles.
- Defrost: on demand rather than on a timer, without touching the cold chain.
- Framework: EN 378 and F-Gas Regulation on any measure affecting the refrigeration plant.
