New Twin Scroll and Digital join Hubbard ECA Condensing Unit range

Hubbard Products, the U.K.’s principal manufacturer of ECA qualifying energy-efficient refrigeration equipment, has added 17 new Twin Scroll Compressor models to its highly successful range of ETL approved Zenith and Zenith Digital Condensing Units. Available in two case configurations, large and small, Single or three phase, Digital or non-digital, the medium temperature units all feature twin low energy EC fans and are suitable for R404A, R407A and R407F refrigerants.

The Condensing Units offer seamless variable capacity from 10 percent to 100 percent directly reflecting the duty requirement at any given time by giving a truly energy efficient and responsive performance. This flexibility is designed to suit the increasing prevalence in retail environments. By incorporating variable temperatures, the units allow multiple close door runs of chiller cabinets; offering realistic energy savings when cabinet doors remain closed overnight or at times of low footfall and real-time requirement.

As the first digital condensing unit technology to feature on the Carbon Trust’s Energy Technology List, Hubbard continues to be a leading force in the development of innovative refrigeration and chilling solutions. With a significant consumer move toward Express and Convenience stores, energy efficiency is a key consideration for national, signature and independent retailers. By claiming Enhanced Capital Allowance (ECA) tax relief on both capital expenditure and the associated installation costs of ETL approved refrigeration and cabinets, users benefit from improved cash flow, lower energy costs and identifiably improved sustainability credentials.

The Zenith Twin Scroll Compressor Condensing Units also offer a range of additional ‘Green’ options, including the ability for heat reclaim to water that has been successfully introduced by a number of Hubbard's Retail and Hospitality Sector clients and is now available to all users.

As the leader in the energy-efficient refrigeration Hubbard now dominates, the ETL Air cooled Condensing Units' sector with 33 qualifying models listed, more than double of any other ETL accredited manufacturer.

Dougie Stoddart, Commercial Director of Hubbard Products explains the need to expand the Zenith range: “The original Zenith Digital Scroll compressor range was launched in January 2013 and has been a resounding success with increasing popularity with specifiers, facility managers and refrigeration engineers. The continually changing face of retailing, and the pressure on retailers to respond quickly to market forces has led to a significant increase in the number of standalone Express and Convenience format stores. This is undoubtedly going to be the face of everyday shopping for the foreseeable future. The need to listen carefully to retailer’s plans and to be one step ahead is the key to our design philosophy. With 10 small and seven large unit sizes, on demand, easy to install and maintain, seamless refrigeration has arrived in time to meet the needs of the future.”
