ChinaShop 2018: Haier Carrier exhibits CO₂ condensing unit

Signaling the growing interest in CO₂ systems in China, Haier Carrier exhibited its QuietCO₂OL CO₂ condensing unit at the recent ChinaShop 2018 exhibition, held on 1-3 November in Kunming, China.

“For the CO₂ outdoor condensing unit, several customers, including a few convenience store customers, have already shown interest in conducting some trials,” said Jefferson Li, marketing director for Carrier Commercial Refrigeration Asia.

“We are prepared to support these trials and the wider commercial success of CO₂ systems to demonstrate the investment value,” said Li.

Li explained that exhibiting the CO₂ condensing unit was a part of a larger plan for the company to lay the groundwork for further uptake of CO₂ systems in Asia.

In addition to the QuietCO₂OL CO₂ condensing unit, Haier Carrier also offers its CO₂OLtec Evo transcritical CO₂ system to the Chinese market, which features “adjustable modulating ejector technology”.

Li added that training is also a very important part of the company’s plans.

“We are committed to the success of CO₂, and in fact have sent 15 employees from the product, design, application, and service teams to the Carrier CO₂OL academy training centre in Mainz, Germany, for three weeks of intensive training on CO₂,” he said.

“Our team is ready to satisfy customer demand for CO₂ equipment, including design, application, installation, commissioning and service to provide ‘total solution life cycle care’.”

Haier Carrier is a joint venture established by Haier Group and Carrier (a division of U.S.-based UTC Climate, Controls & Security) in 2001.
