Immediate Energy Savings and Positive Environmental Impact
Why Vending Miser?
Saves between 25% and 50% of energy normally used to power the machine
Saves ¼ to 1 tonne of CO2 emissions per machine per year.
Maintains product temperature even when in power saving mode
The machine is always available as it powers up when customers enter the vending area
Prolongs the life of the machine due to reduced compressor duty cycles
Alarms for compressor malfunctions
Savings are proportional to the time area around the machine is unoccupied.
Typical savings pay for the Vending Miser in 1 to 2 years
How Vending Miser Saves Energy & £’s
- Powers off cold drink vending machines when the area around them is unoccupied for 15 minutes and the completion of the next compressor cycle.
- Eliminates heat source from evaporator fan that lies within a vending machine’s cold box cabinet, thereby reducing refrigeration load.
- Repowers the machine periodically for one compressor cycle to ensure contents are kept cool.
- Vending Miser uses three different technologies:
- Passive Infrared sensor to detect occupancy
- Compressor monitoring sensor to determine optimum times for machine switch off and prevent “short Cycling” of it’s compressor
- Room temperature sampling while in energy saving mode . (re-powers the machine in 1 to 3 hour intervals to maintain product temperature)
