Johnson Controls safeguards your catch all the way
In the tough world of ocean-going fishing fleets, success means getting the best possible catch from each voyage.
Johnson Controls offers unique expertise and experience within HVAC and refrigeration systems, backed by a truly global footprint. Our extensive range of solutions for fishing vessels allows us to enhance the business of our customers by providing environmentally sustainable, efficient, flexible, and economically sound solutions that safeguard the quality and value of their catch as well as providing the best possible indoor climate comfort.
Advanced RSW
The RSW concept has been developed to meet tomorrow’s demands for top-quality fish and versatility. The concept has been designed for installation aboard fishing vessels, where the most important single factor affecting the quality of fish is the post-catch refrigeration and temperature control processes.
Benefits:
- The quality of the fish on landing
- High COP value, which means lower operation costs
- Lower cleaning and maintenance costs
- Faster installation times
Ammonia/CO2 Cascade for Large Fishing Vessels
Our freezing cascade plants use a CO2 refrigerant on the low-temperature side and a NH3 refrigerant on the high-temperature side. Compared to a normal plant (NH3 direct), the freezing capacity is 25% higher within the same floor space.
Benefits:
- Up to 30% capacity increase in the freezing plant
- 25% reduction in the required space for freezers
- Faster defrosting at lower temperature
- Operating with positive pressure, which ensures that air in the system is not an issue
- Wet return lines are reduced to half the diameter in comparison with ammonia / R22
- Coefficient of performance (COP) is increasing up to 15% at evaporation temperature of -45°C
- The increased COP gives savings in diesel and generator capacity – up to 10% saving in power
- In case of leakage, the cargo will not be affected
- CO2 is a safe, natural and future proven refrigerant
- CO2 gives a constant freezing capacity output in everyday operation
