CUBO₂ Smart
Compact transcritical condensing unit with BLDC inverter compressor and natural CO₂ refrigerant
Description
The CUBO₂ Smart series from SCM Frigo is a range of compact transcritical condensing units , designed to offer maximum energy efficiency, ease of installation and reduced environmental impact thanks to the use of the natural refrigerant CO₂ (R744).
Each unit is equipped with TOSHIBA BLDC rotary compressors with integrated inverters, a gas cooler with EC fans, and CAREL electronic control for precise capacity modulation (from 25% to 100%). The system's high efficiency ensures stable operation even in variable conditions, with low noise levels and a compact footprint.
Thanks to its plug & play design , CUBO₂ Smart is ready for installation and suitable for a wide range of applications in the retail, foodservice and light industrial refrigeration sectors, both in single and multi-split configurations.
