Fast Lane Cooler launched
Staycold International have recently launched their new Fast Lane Cooler to complement their product range of self-contained commercial fridges and freezers .
This was bought about primarily at the request of retailers , who were looking for a cooler to use in their stores for impulse purchases . Staycold ’ s R & D department have been developing this cooler , which has past all the field marketing tests and is ready for the market .
This is a sliding door cooler which can be accessed from both the front and the back of the unit and has a low footprint ideal for check-out aisles in supermarkets . The requirement was that this needed to be aesthetically pleasing based on the location , and easily
accessible for people spending time queueing and waiting to pay in the aisles .
The cooler incorporates all the latest energy saving technologies and uses a hydrocarbon refrigerant ( R290 ) which is a net-zero compatible alternative to HFC-based systems .

Digitalisation to drive innovation
The new Alfa Laval CM Connect marks the next step in the digitalisation journey to drive innovation and growth for customers in the hygienic processing industries .
The CM Connect is a subscription-based condition monitor and cloud gateway . It enables plant operators to access data of rotating equipment on processing lines from a remote location . With data on actual runtime , trend analysis , and time to next service close at hand , plant operators can make informed maintenance decisions using their personal computers and mobile devices .
This protects process continuity and critical assets , improves workplace safety , saves time and money , and delivers competitive advantage .
As Industry 4.0 evolves , the CM Connect is a natural next step on the customer digitalisation journey , expanding the Alfa Laval range of condition monitoring solutions . With complete visibility of all connected assets , plant operators can detect issues that impact future performance , prevent unplanned downtime , and improve asset management .
Advanced vibration analysis enables detection of any deviation from pre-set equipment threshold values . Should deviations occur , an SMS or e-mail notifies users who can take action in real time based on data analysis . Besides linking the CM wireless vibration monitors , the
CM Connect can also act as a sensor . It measures vibration , inboard temperature , and total runtime when mounted on Alfa Laval LKH , SRU , SX and DuraCirc pumps , or other rotating machines , such as agitators or mixers .
