Sitrad is an essential tool in refrigeration projects in the Middle East

Sitrad is an essential tool in refrigeration projects in the Middle East

The capacity to remotely adjust operations and manage the performance was crucial for Leotech Group to warrant a precise temperature control, high power efficiency, and a reliable operation in commercial applications and industries. The company, which has been offering complete solutions for refrigerated storage for almost 30 years throughout the entire Middle East region, found in Full Gauge Controls and the Sitrad software the solution for several operational challenges faced by their clients, including refrigerated transport, pharmaceuticals, and supermarkets, among others.

Through the Full Gauge Controls commercial partner in the Middle East region, Trimac Inc., Leotech performed their first installation over 15 years ago, in a commercial refrigeration project. The experience was easy due to the intuitive setup and the robust performance of the products. Since then, Full Gauge solutions have been integrated in countless projects, adapting to the clients’ specific needs.

Operational challenges in food storage

A notable Project involved a large food storage center that faced operational challenges such as uneven cooling loadouts and outdated control methods. These issues frequently resulted in overloaded compressors, high energy consumptions, and inconsistent refrigeration performance. For example, during peak operating periods, the cooling system struggled to maintain optimal performance due to imprecise control of the coolant and limited management capabilities.

The solution: RCK-862 and Sitrad for savings of over 15% in the electric bill

By implementing the RCK-862 compressor rack controller, together with the electronic expansion valves controllers VX-1050E and VX-1025E, and the Sitrad system, it was possible to solve these issues, providing a precise superheating control and an ideal coolant flow at all times. This resulted in a higher refrigeration efficiency, a reduction in the compressors workload, and savings of 15% in the client’s electric bill.

According to Rakesh Saxena, Trimac’s CEO, Full Gauge has been crucial for Leotech’s projects success by providing reliable and innovative solutions. “The high quality and durability of the products, combined with Sitrad’s advanced resources allow us to offer exceptional value to our clients, ensuring efficiency in our systems and operational peace of mind,” he stated. “We are excited to continue this fruitful partnership and explore new opportunities that all of Full Gauge’s technology can offer,” he concludes.
