Frequently Asked Questions FREECOLD ®

Can I use FREECOLD ® devices anywhere?

Les composants de la gamme ont été dimensionnés (en particulier le condenseur ventilé) pour fonctionner aussi bien en zone tempérée comme la France qu'en zone chaude où la température de référence de jour s'élève à 43°C. Les appareils de la gamme FREECOLD® sont équipés d’un accumulateur de froid composite exclusif breveté pour maintenir la qualité du froid la nuit et les journées non ensoleillées, avec une autonomie complète de 3 à 5 jours suivant les conditions extérieures.

The components of the range were sized (in particular the condenser fan) to operate both in temperate as France in the hot zone where the reference temperature by day is 43 ° C. The devices range FREECOLD ® are equipped with an icepack exclusive patented composite to maintain quality of cold nights and sunny days not with a complete autonomy of 3 to 5 days depending on external conditions.

What is a solar photovoltaic panel?

A photovoltaic cell is an electronic component that exposure to light generates an electrical voltage (volts). Photovoltaic modules are composed of silicon wafers (semiconductor). Light particles, called photons, strike the surface of thin silicon. The photovoltaic cells then convert sunlight directly into electricity. The resulting current is a DC. The latter can be stored in batteries that can use the entire production. But this application is cleaner, much more expensive than conventional energy and is used until now only in isolated locations. Today it is possible to directly use the energy to power systems FREECOLD ® "over the sun".

Why refrigerators / freezers FREECOLD ® they have a safe form and not a front door?

Refrigerators / freezers FREECOLD ® were designed to optimally use the available energy by minimizing heat loss through walls (super-insulation 90mm thick) and at door openings. Access by the above limit losses from the cold. With a front door, we consider that each opening, the entire volume of air inside escapes outward.

Where can I install the refrigerator / freezer and solar panel?

FREECOLD ® systems are sold as standard with a power cable of 4 meters, which means that the solar panel can be installed outside (ground, rooftop or terrace) and the refrigerator / freezer at interior habitat. The distance of 4 meters may be increased by replacing the power cable, whose cross section in mm ² must be equivalent to its length in meters to reduce power losses in line (for example, a 6m cable must have a section of each 2-wire 6mm ²). The solar panel must face south, and inclined to the ground at an angle equal to the latitude.

Is it imperative to dedicate a solar panel in the refrigerator FREECOLD ®?

No, you can use an existing solar panel. If powerful enough, you can feed in parallel the refrigerator FREECOLD and your existing application, or place an automatic load-shedding for power to turn.

What is a Wpeak (Wp)?

The power of solar panels is indicated by Wp. This is the maximum power of a module obtained in optimal conditions of use. In particular the power panel that can provide illumination under 1000W / m²

What is eco-efficiency of a solar photovoltaic refrigerator FREECOLD ®?

Solar installations are clean. But photovoltaic systems use energy for their production and transportation. Today, it is between 1.6 to 4 years of operation (ADEME study - HESPUL) for a sensor to produce as much energy as is consumed during its manufacture and transport. This means that a PV system can produce up to 10 times the energy needed to manufacture.

What is the economic viability of a solar photovoltaic refrigerator FREECOLD ®?

FREECOLD ® offers solutions economically and technically efficient where there is no power supply network while avoiding the use of batteries at high cost and limited lifespan. Economic performance is even more important to deal absorption systems using gas or oil.

What is the shelf life of refrigeration / freezing solar photovoltaic FREECOLD ®?

There are no time limits! The technologies and components we use on the entire range FREECOLD have over 25 years experience. The photovoltaic panels are guaranteed by the manufacturer in 25 years to 80% of theoretical yield.

Why is this one of green energy?

The production of electricity through a photovoltaic emits no CO2. Photovoltaic solar energy is considered a viable long-term mass production of carbon-free energy.

Can you help us in the steps of shipping and transportation?

Tous nos produits sont vendus EXW, c'est à dire sortie usine. Cependant, dans le but de simplifier la vie de nos clients et parce que nous maîtrisons l'ensemble des procédures, nous pouvons sur demande organiser le transport et nous charger de toutes les formalités administratives FOB et DDU.
