Reduction in Electricity Consumption at Hubert Cloix

Since switching our machines to the touchscreen interface, we have undertaken a redesign of the interior of our machines in order to have consistent machines in terms of interface and components for good perceived value.

Introduction

At Hubert Cloix, we are aware of the importance of energy efficiency and we are committed to reducing our environmental footprint. With this in mind, we have recently modernized our range of machines with significant innovations, reducing energy consumption while optimizing performance.

Technology Updates

We have equipped our machines with new touch screens which offer an intuitive user interface. This update allows operators to manage energy more efficiently, resulting in reduced operational costs. In collaboration with our design office and our customers, we have explored and implemented solutions to optimize every aspect of energy consumption.

Savings thanks to Solid State Relays

One of the most impactful changes has been the replacement of traditional electrical contacts with solid state relays on our machines like pasteurizers. This technical advance has made it possible to reduce the heating consumption of our machines. For example, on our 240 liter pastocooker, this modification resulted in a 25% reduction in energy consumption, demonstrating the efficiency of this new technology.

Optimization on Small Models

On our smaller models, such as the 14 liter combi-ice, we have managed to reduce the running time from 1 hour 15 minutes to 47 minutes. This improvement has been achieved through more precise and efficient regulation, which significantly reduces the energy required to operate the machine.

Compressor Improvements

Increased Performance, Reduced Energy

We have also optimized the power of the compressors in our machines such as pastocuiseurs and ice cream turbines. By improving the pigging system and heat dispersion, we have not only increased refrigeration efficiency but also reduced energy consumption. These adjustments contribute to a significant reduction in energy costs while improving the overall performance of the machines.

Conclusion

Our commitment at Hubert Cloix goes beyond the simple manufacturing of machines; we aim to offer solutions that are both efficient and environmentally friendly. These innovations are a testament to our dedication to sustainability and technical excellence, and we are proud to share these advancements with you, our valued customers.
