CHICAGO - Tecumseh Products Co. hit the ground running on Monday of the 2018 AHR Expo, showcasing the IntelliCOOL Technology Platform during an afternoon press conference.

Tecumseh’s IntelliCOOL™ Technology Platform encompasses the latest product innovations and initiatives in variable capacity cooling, intelligent control, energy management, and heat transfer to provide commercial refrigeration systems that are compact, quiet, and deliver great performance. 

“IntelliCOOL includes initiatives in energy management, heat transfer, and energy savings,” said Robert Terry, director of global product management for Tecumseh. “Inside IntelliCOOL is a way to deliver dynamic variable capacity cooling, ECO mode, adaptive defrost, smart lighting control, and other features.”

According to the company, the four main benefits of IntelliCOOL are in the areas of Energy Savings, System Performance, Connectivity and Serviceability, and Reliability. 

During 2018, Tecumseh will begin applying various elements of the IntelliCOOL technology platform to its line of commercial refrigeration compressors, condensing units, and value-added systems.

Doug Murdock, chief executive officer for Tecumseh, highlighted the company’s outlook for 2018 and said the company plans to continue launching and innovating products that customers want.

“We are working globally to improve hand-in-hand with our innovation concepts,” he said.

Alongside IntelliCOOL, Tecumseh also announced the launch of its Masterflux line of ATLAS and MESA Mini and Micro Rotary compressors.  The rugged yet compact and lightweight design makes them ideally suited for mobile and transport cooling applications, per the company.  By combining advanced motor technology with high efficiency compression technology, Tecumseh delivers mini and micro rotary compressors with an efficiency up to 9.7 EER (2.85 COP).
