    Upgrading Industrial Refrigeration with Danfoss PLC Controls

    When Jack Link’s Snacks, a Wisconsin-based manufacturer of beef and turkey jerky snacks, wanted to double the size of their production facility in 2022, they knew they needed to upgrade their refrigeration system. With a larger system – 50 new evaporators, 2 air handlers, plus new condensers, compressors, a recirculator and receiver - came the need for a more robust PLC (programmable logic controller) system to help them manage and monitor temperatures and refrigerant cycle performance for a larger production and storage footprint.

    Danish supermarkets turned into heat suppliers

    A Danish supermarket fulfills 95 percent of its heating demand from its own cooling display cases. The chain has installed Danfoss heat recovery units and managed to halve its CO2 footprint in five years. Imagine if this was done in all supermarkets in the world.
