At Re/Gent, we provide high-quality, standards-based and custom testing for key refrigeration components. Our laboratory delivers reliable, repeatable, and traceable results that support product development, certification, and performance optimization. Our test environment covers a wide range of refrigerants, including natural refrigerants such as R290 and R600a.
We test refrigeration and heat pump compressors according to ISO 13771-1, measuring:
- Cooling capacity and electrical power input
- Coefficient of performance (COP)
- Mass flow rate and volumetric characteristics
all at standard and extended operating points
We test condensing units in accordance with ISO 13771-2, determining:
- Cooling capacity
- Electrical consumption
- Efficiency and COP
All at defined operating conditions
We test heat evaporators & condensers. Beyond formal standards, we also test evaporators, condensers, and other heat exchangers using a variety of well established test methods tailored to customer needs. Depending on the component type we can determine:
- Heat transfer capacity
- Pressure drop
- Heat transfer coefficients
- Fluid distribution
For different refrigerants, loads, and airflow/water-flow conditions
These flexible test setups allow us to support:
- New product development
- Component selection and matching
- Troubleshooting and performance optimization
- Verification before integrating components into full systems
