The Flower environmentally friendly chamber

Environmental protection and preservation are among the highest priorities for Angelantoni Industrie. They have been conducting research and development related to reduce energy consumption and to use ecological and recyclable materials in order to develop products that reduce environmental damages at all stages of the product lifecycles.

The new chamber called 'Flower' is the first result of this research, a truly innovative product in the field of climatic test chambers.

About 50% reduction of energy consumption can be assured during the stabilization phases due to a unique and patent pending system such as:

• An inverter that controls compressor speed and allows the adaptation of compressor power to different working needs



• A heat sink to increase the cooling efficiency

20% noise reduction is obtained due to:

• The inverter on the compressor which reduces the rotation speed to about 40% of its nominal value according to working conditions.



• A silencer installed on the compressor which lowers noise during maximum rotation speeds.



• An automatic control system that reduces condensers blower rotation speed according to ambient temperature and cooling power.

These advantages are combined with the use of environmentally friendly materials during production phases:

• water based paints



• no polyurethane in the insulation process



• recyclable or easy disposable packing materials
