Nouvelles des membres de l'IIF : Danfoss inaugure son nouveau laboratoire de tests pour les frigorigènes inflammables en France (en anglais)

Danfoss a inauguré la nouvelle extension de son laboratoire de test situé à Trévoux, en France. Elle permettra à l'entreprise d'accroître sa capacité à tester des compresseurs frigorifiques et de conditionnement d'air contenant des frigorigènes de substitution inflammables.

Danfoss opened last month its newly extended ATEX lab (ATEX standing for Explosive Atmosphere). Now six times its original surface, this lab is now the largest in Europe with 3,000 m2. It is located in Trevoux, near Lyon, in France.

 

 

The safety of flammable refrigerants will be tested in this facility. The ATEX lab will be focused on compressor reliability and performance and will help Danfoss replicate a full range of tests with A3 (hydrocarbons) and A2L class refrigerants.


Two teams can work in the facility (day and night). 50 test benches have been installed. They are capable of testing compressors from 1.8 to 210 kW and parallel compressors from 1.8 to 850 kW per circuit.
