LAB2 is a large calorimeter with a double cold room equipped with a cavity to eliminate heat loss towards the external environment. It was designed to test the performance and efficiency of forced convection air-cooled evaporators for refrigeration according to EN 328 and allows you to measure cooling capacities from 200 W up to 65 kW, with extremely high accuracy and repeatability of the data across the entire measurement range. It is also possible to test the fluid dynamic efficiency of thermostatic valves and fluid control systems. If necessary, LAB2 can be transformed into a climatic chamber for tests on refrigeration systems by simulating external temperatures down to -30°C.
