Pricing
Request a quote for current pricing, lead time and delivery to your airport.The Ice Storage PCA Unit uses ice thermal-storage technology, producing and storing ice overnight on off-peak electricity and melting it to cool aircraft cabins during peak hours. The integrated unit combines refrigeration, thermal storage, electrical controls and air distribution, and Shenling states it needs around 50% lower electrical power distribution than traditional units. It runs on R410a refrigerant with IoT intelligent control and OTA capability.
