FRA.BO AND RUBINETTERIE BRESCIANE AT CHILLVENTA 2024

Rubinetterie Bresciane and the Bonomi Group will once again be exhibiting at Chillventa 2024, the largest international HVAC/R trade fair, which will be held in Nuremberg from 8 to 10 October and will bring together more than 30,000 visitors and 850 exhibitors from over 43 countries.

The Fra.Bo range includes a wide range of products that meet the most advanced requirements of the refrigeration, air-conditioning and ventilation market, guaranteeing reliability, efficiency and sustainability. Among the series on display in hall 5 stand 5-136 will be:

FRABO 4000: characterised by fittings with bronze weld end, available in different sizes (from 6 to 108 mm) and compliant with UNI EN 1254-1 and threaded end manufactured following EN 10226-1. FRABO 5000OT: threaded fittings made of high-quality brass and available in the size range from 1/4’ to 3’ in compliance with EN 10226-1 and UNI EN 1254-4. FRABO G-SIZE: copper Cu-DHP soldered fittings designed and manufactured for soldered joints subject to high working pressure or severe mechanical stress. Size ranges from 22 to 133 mm. FRABO 5000: copper Cu-DHP soldered fittings available in several sizes (6 and 133 mm) and manufactured by the requirements of European standard UNI EN 1254-1. FRABO FRIO: copper Cu-DHP solder fittings in the 1/4' to 4’1/8 size range conforming to ASME B 16.22 and suitable for VRV-VRF air conditioning systems and industrial refrigeration applications.

During the event, Rubinetterie Bresciane will preview the new FRABO POLAR series: high-strength CuFe weld fittings designed for high-pressure refrigeration applications up to 130 bars. The FRABOPOLAR series of fittings are particularly suitable for CO₂ (R-744) in transcritical applications.

The FRABO POLAR series was developed to meet the growing need for components capable of withstanding the high operating pressures associated with CO₂ (R-744). Thanks to its low environmental impact (ODP of zero and GWP of one), making it a very environmentally friendly refrigerant, CO₂ (R-744) is increasingly being used in commercial refrigeration systems, particularly those for large-scale retail plants. FRABO POLAR fittings are perfect under these conditions as they guarantee high mechanical strength, safety and reliability.

The participation in Chillventa 2024 represents an important opportunity for Rubinetterie Bresciane to consolidate its leadership in the HVAC/R sector and to interact with the main global players in the market.
