Advancing Hands-On Learning in Sustainable Refrigeration
At Labtech International, we’re revolutionizing GreenTVET education with cutting-edge training systems that prepare technicians for the future of sustainable refrigeration. This CO2/R744 Commercial Refrigeration System Trainer, exclusively designed for UNIDO’s HVAC training centre in South Africa, features transparent demonstration panels, comprehensive control systems, and real-time monitoring capabilities — all designed to provide hands-on experience with natural refrigerants. This collaboration represents another milestone in our commitment to advancing sustainable cooling technologies worldwide.
Real-World Experience with Natural Refrigerants
The system incorporates dual-stage compression technology, allowing students to witness the complete CO2 refrigeration cycle in action. With operating pressures reaching up to 120 bar, this trainer provides real-world experience with transcritical CO2 systems that are rapidly becoming industry standard across commercial refrigeration applications.
As the world transitions away from high-GWP refrigerants, this CO2-based training systems offer vocational institutions the tools needed to develop skilled technicians ready to install, maintain and troubleshoot environmentally friendly cooling systems. The skills gap in natural refrigerant technology remains a significant barrier to widespread adoption — our mission is to bridge this gap through innovative training solutions tailored to regional needs.
We’re particularly proud that this system was designed to UNIDO’s specifications, incorporating safety features that allow students to work confidently with high-pressure CO2 systems while gaining invaluable practical experience. Each component is clearly visible and accessible, transforming complex refrigeration theory into tangible understanding.
