CAREL REFRIGERATION CONTROL SOLUTIONS

CAREL μRack Controller

Condensing Units & Compact Compressor Racks

Intelligent refrigeration control for compact compressor racks, condensing units and transcritical CO₂ systems — featuring advanced compressor management, energy-saving control and convenient mobile commissioning.

Basic Medium Advanced CO₂ / R744

Smarter Control for Compact Refrigeration Systems

The CAREL μRack is a compact electronic refrigeration controller designed for the management of condensing units and small compressor rack systems.

It combines compressor sequencing, suction pressure control, condenser fan management, system alarms and energy-saving functions in a versatile platform. With selected versions supporting NFC and Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE), setup and maintenance can be simplified using CAREL's APPLICA mobile application.

The range includes Basic, Medium and Advanced configurations for conventional refrigeration applications, plus a dedicated μRack CO₂ version for transcritical R744 refrigeration systems.
