Cerma Blue Ice A/C & Refrigeration

CERMA BLUE ICE PRESENTATION

Cerma Blue Ice is an advanced A/C and refrigeration treatment designed to reduce energy consumption and improve system efficiency. The following test documents the real-world energy savings achieved with Blue Ice treatment.

Cerma Blue Ice Test

Test Overview

Parameter	Details
Test Start Date	May 30, 2013
Test Duration	Two weeks (one week baseline, one week with treatment)
Equipment Tested	Walk-in freezer with 5-ton 3PH 208V Freon compressor
Location	Villarina's Pasta and Find Food, Danbury, CT
Test Conditions	Indoor freezer, constant ambient temperature

Test Methodology

On 5/30/13 Cerma began a two-week monitoring of a walk-in freezer cooled by a 5-ton 3PH 208V Freon compressor owned by Villarina's Pasta and Find Food of Danbury, CT. Since the freezer was indoors, the ambient temperature was constant.

The first week we recorded existing energy consumption. Without disconnecting or stopping any monitoring equipment, on the seventh day we injected CERMA BLUE ICE into the Schrader Valve on the low pressure line and continued monitoring energy consumption for another week.

Monitoring Equipment Used

We used a power logging system to monitor the energy consumption before and after adding the CERMA BLUE ICE treatment. The system consisted of:

• HOBO UX120 Pulse Logger – Data recording device
• E50B2 Energy and Power Meter – Energy measurement
• 20 AMP Mini Split-core A/C Current Transformer – Current sensing
• A/C Current switch – Monitoring component
• HOBOware Pro Data Logger Software – Data analysis

Why This Test Matters

• Real-world conditions – Commercial food service application
• Controlled environment – Indoor freezer with constant ambient temperature
• Before and after comparison – Same equipment, same conditions
• Professional monitoring – Industry-standard power logging equipment
• Continuous monitoring – No equipment disconnection between baseline and treatment

Applications for Blue Ice

Application	Benefits
Commercial Refrigeration	Walk-in coolers, freezers, display cases
HVAC Systems	Commercial and residential A/C units
Industrial Cooling	Process cooling, manufacturing
Restaurant/Food Service	Kitchen refrigeration, prep coolers
Transportation	Refrigerated trucks and trailers

How Blue Ice Works

• Reduces friction in compressor components
• Improves heat transfer efficiency
• Lowers operating temperatures of compressor
• Reduces cycle time – system runs less frequently
• Extends equipment life – less wear on components
