Abstract: A refrigerated cabinet (10) includes a cabinet base (20) defining an open top compartment having a refrigerated interior for housing a refrigerated product (50) and a canopy (30) disposed atop the refrigerated compartment. A transparent glass window in the front wall of the canopy (30) is extended downwardly to the product fill line within the refrigerated compartment thereby expanding the customer view area. The rear wall of the canopy (30) includes a transparent service door (40) and a framework (42). The service door (40) may be rotated independently of the framework (42) to an open position providing service access to the refrigerated compartment. The service door (40) and the framework (42) may also be rotated together as a unit to a second open position to provide access to the refrigerated compartment for cleaning and sanitizing. A lamp (80) for illuminating the cabinet interior is disposed externally of the canopy (30).
Abstract: A compressor control system for a commercial refrigeration system includes a variable speed compressor and multiple fixed speed compressors. The control system calculates a variable which fluctuates according to the desired capacity of the system and is calculated as a function of the difference between a variable indicative of the refrigeration load on the system, such as compressor suction pressure, and a target value. A "PID" proportional-integral-differential (PID) controller is used in which terms have been added which fluctuate as a function of the square of the difference between the sensed variable and the target value and as a function of the second derivative of the control variable with respect to time. Fixed speed compressors are turned on or off and the speed of the variable speed compressor is adjusted to bring the actual refrigeration capacity of the system in line with the system refrigeration requirements.
