Type of article: Article

Summary

A COMPARISON OF TESTS OF THE PERFORMANCE OF DISPLAY CABINETS FOR FRESH MEAT SHOWED THAT THE ENERGY CONSUMPTION COULD VARY A FACTOR 2 ALTHOUGH STORAGE CONDITIONS WERE COMPARABLE. AS THE DIFFERENCES COULD NOT BE EXPLAINED, THE TEST PROCEDURE WAS EXTENDED IN SUCH A WAY THAT DIFFERENCES IN ENERGY CONSUMPTION COULD BE UNDERSTOOD. THE MEASUREMENTS ACCORDING TO THE NEW TEST PROCEDURE, CARRIED OUT ON A DISPLAY CABINET FOR PACKED FRESH MEAT SHOWED THAT BY SIMPLE MEANS A 35% CUT IN ENERGY CONSUMPTION COULD BE ACHIEVED. AN IMPORTANT REDUCTION IN ENERGY CONSUMPTION IN COMMERCIAL REFRIGERATION COULD BE OBTAINED BY THE INTRODUCTION OF AN ENERGY LABEL FOR DISPLAY CABINETS (CHILLED AND FROZEN FOOD).
