10 Innovations Transforming Retail Operations
Significant research and development (R&D) are underway to address these converging challenges. In a recent article for Progressive Grocer, I outlined 10 innovations that are poised to transform the future of retail operations.
Refrigerant Transition Highlights the Importance of Leak Detection
Although detecting and minimizing leaks in commercial refrigeration equipment have always been important goals, they’re about to become even more critical. As I discussed in a recent article for Engineered Systems, the transition to the next generation of refrigerants creates important considerations — for both legacy and emerging systems.
Let the Refrigerant Phase-in Begin
As I noted in a recent article for Contracting Business, the next generation of refrigeration equipment will be more diverse, with no one-size-fits-all solution. Proven eco-friendly refrigerants CO2 (or R-744) and R-290 (aka propane) — as well as emerging A2L options — are among the most likely successors capable of meeting needed global warming potential (GWP) reductions.
Simplify Refrigerated Case Servicing and Troubleshooting
Effective troubleshooting is a fundamental skillset for service technicians responsible for keeping refrigerated cases running at peak performance. They need tools to help them quickly set up new cases and diagnose issues in existing units — stabilizing air temperatures, superheat and defrost schedules — all while minimizing in-store disruptions. The Copeland CC200 case controller was designed with these priorities in mind. In the last blog of our Innovations in Case Control series, I review how its powerful combination of software, hardware and mobile app provides a robust collective toolset for simplifying every aspect of servicing and troubleshooting.
