EMERSON CLIMATE
TECHNOLOGIES ENHANCES
E2 RX REFRIGERATION CONTROLLER
New
capabilities lower retailer operating costs and increase equipment
lifespan
ST. LOUIS,
July 27, 2007 – Today, Emerson Climate Technologies, a business of
Emerson (NYSE: EMR), introduced the latest enhancement to its industry
leading E2 series of refrigeration controllers. Version 2.5 of the E2 RX
contains new algorithms that improve refrigeration system performance
for supermarket operators by reducing compressor cycling and making
compressor asset and performance information available to users.
Refrigeration
systems require considerable annual maintenance and energy budgets, and
are critical for supermarket retailers to operate efficiently. As part
of Emerson’s Intelligent Store™ architecture, the E2 RX optimally
manages low and medium temperature cases, as well as manages and
monitors the refrigeration racks that contain compressors and valves
necessary for proper system operation. The new algorithms in the E2 RX
reduce compressor cycling, which is a major cause of decreased equipment
life. Reduced compressor cycling may also contribute to reduced energy
consumption as well.
When used in
conjunction with Emerson’s Intelligent Store Discus® compressor, users
gain access to advanced asset management, upgradeable compressor
software, online fault history, and remote reset capabilities. Not only
do these abilities help supermarket operators track their valuable
assets, the remote reset capability can actually reduce service
calls—saving valuable maintenance dollars through service call
avoidance.
“These
enhancements demonstrate our continued commitment to lowering our
customers’ energy and maintenance costs through superior technology and
equipment integration,” said Bill Coulombe, president of Emerson’s
Retail Solutions group. “When combined with other products and services
in the Intelligent Store architecture, our customers realize new levels
of savings and insight into their enterprises.”
Emerson’s
Intelligent Store architecture establishes an integrated suite of
products and services that provides retail operators with a new level of
sophistication into their operations. When combined, these innovative
Emerson Climate Technologies products and services are proven to enable
maintenance, energy and other operational savings. Also included in the
Intelligent Store architecture is the Intelligent Store Discus®
compressor, Control Link™ device controllers, Electronic Stepper
Regulator (ESR) valves, select Lennox® rooftop units, and other
third-party devices. For more information on Emerson’s Intelligent Store
