Hello,
I am new to this forum and know very little about refrigeration. I have clearly come to the right place to learn from others- this is a great forum! I have been reading over various posts trying to get a better understanding of suction pressure and temperature in an attempt to understand if products made by Smartcool actually work. (Smartcool.net) So far, I'm not sure.
To give you an idea who I am, the reason I am trying to figure this out is because I am an investor who is trying to determine if shares in SmartCool would be a good investment.
Smartcool claims to have invented a product that manages suction pressure in refrigeration and a/c units to lower electricity usage. They have trials listed in their news releases that are reducing energy consumption by 17%. Now, the company has been around since the late '90s, so why do they have dismal revenues? Their website says they include McDonalds, Apple and other big names on their client list. But, why don't we hear more about their technology??
From their website: "By controlling the suction temperature or pressure over a narrow band, it is possible to maximize the compressor performance, increase cooling capacity by as much as 30% and achieving compressor optimization." WITH NO impact on temperatures.
I would really appreciate any feedback anyone on this forum has.
Thank you for taking the time to read my post. :)
