TOPICS
Ice-skating rinks & artificial snow production facilities
Ice-making system for maintaining ice rinks in peak condition.

Applications and markets
-Indoor and outdoor ice-skating rinks

-Permanent and temporary ice-skating rinks

-Sports rinks
 Speed skating, Ice hockey, figure skating, short-track speed skating, Curling

-Leisure and event skating rinks

-Upgrading of existing ice-skating rink facilities

 
Functions
Maintains ice at optimal condition by controlling ice temperatures to suit requirements.

-Feedback control based on brine, ice interior, or ice surface temperatures.

-The freezer includes a controller to control brine outlet temperatures and freezer capacity.

-Enables control of the number of units to achieve efficient operations.

Features

Can be operated using various energy sources.

Allows selection of a range of energy sources to reduce operating costs.
*Electric motor operation
*Gas engine operation
*Diesel engine operation (Class A heavy oil, kerosene, diesel fuel)
*Can be used for water-cooled, air-cooled, or evaporator-condenser




Helps prevent ozone layer depletion and global warming.

*The cooling unit supports a wide range of refrigerants, including natural refrigerants R-717 (NH3), R-134a, R-404a and refrigerant mixtures
*Allows replacement of just the refrigerant, meaning the same equipment can be used for all refrigerants
Allows use of multiple refrigerants




Can be used to power other systems.

Can be used to power systems other than ice-skating rink cooling systems.
*Allows reuse of engine waste heat
*Combined air-conditioning use (air-conditioning in summer, rink cooling in winter)

Advantages
-Enables operation of energy-saving/high-efficiency ice-skating rinks meetingd client requirements.

-In addition to supplying cooling systems for ice-making, Mayekawa also designs and installs fences and rink-side equipment, key components of any ice-skating rink. The rink cooling system (sprinkler type or embedded type) can be selected to suit the budget and intended use (including off-season use). Mayekawa provides installation plans based on ease-of-use, economy, benefits, safety, and environmental considerations for efficient facility operation and management while providing the optimum environment according to the intended use.

-Feel free to consult Mayekawa on matters such as ice-skating rink ice temperature control, high-efficiency operation of freezer systems using sensors, or existing facility upgrades.
