Mayekawa Manufacturing Company Ltd., Japan, is planning to launch four new models of its highly efficient natural refrigerant-based cooling system, the NewTon, on the 21st of July 2016. The four new models comprise the NewTon R-3000 and R-6000 for cold storage, and F-300 and F-600 for frozen storage and all four will feature reduced refrigerant charge, system size and weight compared to previous models. Mayekawa have disclosed that they have upgraded the technology used in the previous models and so, while still maintaining high energy efficiency.
The new models are set to offer minimised refrigerant charge and improved maintenance in a bid to ease any potential anxiety users may have regarding the everyday operation of the system. Mayekawa claims that the new models’ more compact size and weight should help reduce the impact of facility renovation, which is expected to increase as Japan’s 2020 deadline for completely phasing out of ozone-depleting HCFCs under the Montreal Protocol draws nearer.
