Summary

A start-up company from Poland working on an innovative solution for real-time monitoring and control of industrial refrigerating systems would like to conclude a commercial agreement with technical assistance, a research cooperation or a financial agreement. The client is interested in further testing of the developed solution and introducing it to the international market. The system will monitor the status of the refrigerating equipment and allow to control leakages of harmful substances.

Description

A Polish start-up operating in the heating, ventilation and air conditioning branch is working on an innovative solution for monitoring and control of industrial refrigerating systems. 



The client is looking for universities and R&D institutions interested in cooperation in  research and development works concerning a remote monitoring system for refrigerating equipment, as well as distributors in the air conditioning branch (industrial cooling and refrigeration) interested in testing and implementing the offered innovative solution on the market. Investors willing to provide additional funding are also welcome.



The developed technical solution consists in real-time monitoring of refrigerating equipment operating with refrigerating mediums that are hazardous for the environment. Such substances contribute to global warming, and in case of leakage, generate costs (fines) for the operator.



The developed system will consist of an innovative control module mounted on the refrigerating device and a connected web application. It will support and monitor the operation of refrigerating equipment, gathering data and sending those data to a cloud database. The application will help managing the refrigerating equipment by analysing all parameters of individual devices and scheduling all required maintenance works. Dedicated calculation algorithms will allow the user to receive alerts concerning the status of the equipment on a mobile device. If any anomaly is detected, the system will send an alert to a predefined user. There will be two types of users: service company (3 levels) and device owner. Users will be assigned to particular sites and will be able to access various data concerning the status of the device and the alerts, according to the level of authorisation. Higher level users will be able to access reports. If any failure occurs, service personnel will be able to enter the details of the repair, including the volume of medium refilled.



The system will be based on the plug&play solution to enable quick installation and application in almost every low to medium efficiency refrigerating system (including refrigerated vehicles). Individual solutions are envisaged for extensive refrigerating systems.



The offered system is a simple solution that can be primarily applied by many clients from the agrofood sector. Currently the system is being tested by a meat producer from Poland, but further testing is required to improve the solution and make use of all features that it may offer.

Advantages and Innovations

- innovative control module mounted on the refrigerating device

- web application analysing all parameters of individual devices

- alerts generated based on the data analysed with use of calculation algorithms

- immediate failure location

- plug&play installation

- suitable for almost every low to medium efficiency refrigerating system (including refrigerated vehicles)

- individual solutions possible for extensive refrigerating systems

Stage Of Development

Under development/lab tested

Requested partner

Companies from the air conditioning branch (industrial cooling and refrigeration) interested in implementing and testing the offered innovative solution as part of the further product research and development process, as well as investors willing to provide additional funding, R&D institutions and universities interested in participation in the research.



The developed solution is currently tested at a single facility, but further testing in a broader scale is required. Support in module and software programming would also be valuable.



Commercial agreement with technical assistance or research cooperation agreement is considered.
