Seamless. The Ice Bear® 50 product pairs its patented energy storage module with an off-the-shelf air conditioning condensing unit, integrating seamlessly with conventional rooftop and split-system air conditioners that cool almost all light-commercial and residential buildings.

Adaptable. The Ice Bear® 50 system has a capacity of 50 Ton hours of cooling, including 45 latent + sensible and an additional 5 sensible only. The unit provides 7.5 Tons of cooling capacity for 6 hours of continuous cooling.

Typical configurations:

• 7.5 Ton for 6 hours
• 5 Ton for 8 hours or more
• Offloading of 10 Ton rooftop unit, where 10 Ton unit is oversized due to high rooftop temperatures
• Offloading one stage of a 10, 15, or 20 Ton, 2-stage rooftop unit

Pre-engineered. The energy storage module is an integrated unit consisting of the Refrigerant Management System (RMS), CoolData® controller, and insulated storage tank. The tank contains a specially designed heat exchanger submerged in about five hundred gallons of tap water.

The Ice Bear module is paired with a 5 Ton condensing unit used to freeze water in the Ice Bear insulated storage tank.. It operates the condensing unit at night, when energy is less costly. During the day when the thermostat calls for cooling, standard refrigerant is circulated through coils in the ice. The chilled refrigerant then flows to the building’s air-conditioning system inside the home or business to provide immediate, efficient cooling.

The Ice Bear product reduces building peak demand associated with cooling by up to 95% because the peak demand setting condensing unit is off during the day.
