How to use the refrigeration system filters

Model configurations: filters and specifications describe the base model. If you select an alternative condensing-unit configuration, check its own dimensions and technical data separately.

  1. Start with the application: standard storage, unpacked meat, high humidity, wine/cheese or cooled working rooms. These applications use different evaporators and controls.
  2. Compare capacity and room volume at the SAME room temperature. For example, select both +5 °C ratings for a +5 °C room, or both −20 °C ratings for a −20 °C freezer.
  3. Choose the evaporator to suit the room: low-profile saves headroom, cubic provides directed circulation, double-flow supplies both sides, and quasi-static circulation suits unpacked meat.
  4. Filter refrigerant according to the project. R455A A2L installation conditions must follow the exact model instructions.
  5. Check the dimensions of BOTH units and allow additional ventilation and service clearances.
  6. Use the series filter after narrowing the application. The following manufacturer-series table explains the actual range groupings.

Do not constrain every temperature point at once: a unit without a published value at a selected point will not match that condition. Estimated room volume does not replace a heat-load calculation.

Main range families

  • MSH / BSH use horizontal condensing units for positive / negative temperature rooms; MSF / BSF are low-noise Sigilus packages. Check the exact axial or centrifugal configuration.
  • ASF / ASH serve cooled working rooms with double-flow evaporators and +9, +12 and +15 °C sizing points.
  • MSF-U / MSH-CU use gentle quasi-static double-flow evaporators for unpacked meat around 0 °C. Maturation and active humidity control are optional.
  • HSF-D / HSH-CD serve high-humidity rooms. Standard 60–95 % control is passive and depends on room/product conditions; steam humidification is optional.
  • VSF-G / VSH-CG serve wine and cheese rooms. Distinguish insulated and uninsulated volume estimates; (K) configurations include a humidification kit.

R455A piping and factory pre-charge

INTARCON commercial R455A units are factory-adjusted and pre-charged for up to 10 m of refrigerant piping. This does not mean copper pipes are included. Units have service valves, Flare connections up to 3/4 inch and ready-to-braze connections from 7/8 inch.

Select liquid and gas line diameters for the exact model and pipe length. Runs exceeding 10 m require the specified additional refrigerant and POE oil charge in grams. For example, the medium-temperature -026 group specifies 100 g refrigerant / 90 g oil at 15 m and 200 / 180 g at 20 m. Do not apply these values to another model or temperature group. Where two rows are listed, identify the exact configuration.

R455A line diameters and additional refrigerant/oil table, catalogue pp. 300–301.

Split refrigeration systems for cold rooms and freezer rooms

This category features professional IMPAFRI and INTARCON split refrigeration systems for chilled and frozen storage, food-handling facilities and specialist controlled-temperature rooms. A split system combines a manufacturer-matched condensing unit with an evaporator installed inside the cold room. Controls, protective devices and refrigeration components depend on the exact factory model.

Unlike a monoblock, the condensing unit and evaporator are installed separately and connected by refrigerant pipework. This can make heat rejection outside the cold room, noise management and equipment servicing more practical.

Which evaporator type should you choose?

  • Slim low-profile evaporator – a compact ceiling-area installation where available headroom matters, particularly in lower rooms.
  • Cubic industrial-type evaporator – suited to stronger air circulation in larger or longer cold rooms. Air throw must be checked against the individual model data.
  • Double-flow evaporator – distributes air in two directions and may be suitable where more even airflow is important in working areas.
  • Low-velocity / quasi-static evaporator – designed for specialist applications where gentler air movement is preferred, including selected meat storage and ageing systems.

Temperature duties and applications

Standard ranges include positive- and negative-temperature systems. Depending on the series, the manufacturer's capacity and estimated cold-room-volume tables provide data at 0, +5 and +10 °C or −25, −20 and −15 °C. Special high-temperature duties may also use separate +9, +12 and +15 °C reference points. These values must not be applied indiscriminately to every model.

Factory-matched specialist systems are available for meat storage and ageing, high relative humidity, and wine or cheese storage. Humidification, dehumidification or heating may require specific factory options and are not necessarily included in the standard equipment price.

How to select the right split system

Consider more than room volume: required temperature, insulation thickness, ambient conditions, door-opening frequency, incoming product temperature, daily throughput and installation location all influence the cooling load. Cooling capacity (W) and estimated room volume (m³) should be compared at the same reference temperature; a catalogue volume estimate does not replace a project-specific heat-load calculation.

Some models are available with axial or centrifugal condensing arrangements. They differ in air-discharge characteristics, technical data and price. Duct resistance must be assessed when choosing a centrifugal version. Refrigerant type, power supply, dimensions and defrost configuration must be verified for each SKU.

Scope of supply, accessories and installation

Unless a product specifies otherwise, the listed price is for the factory-matched equipment package. Refrigerant copper pipework and insulation, electrical and refrigeration installation, commissioning and any additional refrigerant are generally excluded. Certain series specify a factory charge for a stated pipe-run length; the permitted vertical separation between units is a different technical limit.

Factory options such as electrical protection, anti-corrosion coatings, condensing control and humidity management apply only to compatible series and sizes. Options already included as standard must not be charged again. The final configuration and installation requirements should be confirmed before ordering.
