INTARCON MSH-CUY-44136A split refrigeration system with meat-storage evaporator

Unpacked meat preservation and optional maturation

INTARCON MSH-CUY-44136A is a split system for unpacked meat preservation. This range is designed for unpacked meat storage in cold rooms around 0 °C. Its quasi-static evaporator uses very low-speed fans and distributes air in two directions, producing movement similar to natural convection. Gentle circulation helps limit direct exposure and moisture loss from the product surface.

Practical benefits

• Gentle double-flow circulation: helps reduce surface drying. Leave both discharge paths and the return-air path unobstructed when planning rails, racks and hanging products.
• Separate heat rejection: allows the condensing unit to be positioned outside the cold room and serviced without clearing the storage space.
• Electronic control and electric defrost: manage room temperature and frost removal. The factory refrigeration circuit includes solenoid and thermostatic expansion valves and high/low pressure protection.

Range configuration and selection limits

Meat preservation and maturation need different configurations. The manufacturer offers optional maturation control with humidification and dehumidification, a VTIPG touch display and a steam humidifier rated up to 3 kg/h. That configuration is intended for rooms around 0 °C with a 40–95 % relative humidity control range. It is ordered separately and is not a standard preservation feature.

Condensing unit location and installation

This model has a centrifugal condensing-unit fan for ducted rejection of warm condenser air. Size the duct against the actual airflow and available fan pressure, not the connection dimensions alone. Provide sufficient make-up air.

The manufacturer specifies a maximum vertical separation of 15 m with the condensing unit above the evaporator, or 6 m with it below. These are elevation limits, not pre-charge pipe lengths. Provide a trapped, sloping condensate drain and follow the installation drawing for refrigerant piping and oil return.

How to size this model

Published capacity points for this factory model: 0 °C. In the specification, compare capacity and estimated room volume at the same room temperature. Cooling capacity is not electrical input. Provide internal room dimensions, insulation, ambient temperature, daily product load and incoming temperature, door-opening frequency and the proposed pipe route. An unpublished operating point must not be substituted by a rating at a different temperature.

Supply scope and documentation

Supply covers the factory condensing unit, evaporator and range-specific controls. The cold-room enclosure, site copper pipework and insulation, electrical installation and commissioning are planned separately. Pre-charge for 10 m does not itself mean that pipes or all interconnecting cables are supplied.
