4RM Refrigeration: Hydroloop system with natural refrigerant R290

4RM Refrigeration: more than 10 years of experience in the development of Hydroloop systems using natural refrigerant R290

4RM Refrigeration continues to strengthen its position as a technology leader in retail refrigeration. For more than ten years we have been developing and implementing Hydroloop system on natural refrigerant R290 (propane) - a solution that has proven its efficiency, reliability and economic benefits at dozens of sites.

From convenience stores to large supermarkets, the Hydroloop system has been used in a wide range of applications

Over the past decade, Hydroloop has been successfully implemented in stores of various formats across the country. Among the key projects:

"Hippo" chain

Supermarket in Galereya shopping center (Minsk)

Facilities in the village of Borovlyany (Malinovskaya Street, 2B)

Store in Lesnoy (15 Aleksandrova str.)

"Euroopt" network

Stores in Minsk (31A, Logoisky trakt str.)

Object in Orsha

"Dobronom" chain

Store in Stolbtsy (15 Mira str.)

Branded trade of meat processing plants

"Grodno MK: stores in Grodno (Shchorsa St.) and Lida (Komsomolskaya St., 13A).

“MeetHouse” of “VelesMIT” company (Minsk, Dzerzhinskogo avenue, 19).

The project in Lida, where a full-featured heat utilization system has been implemented, is particularly noteworthy: the energy removed from the refrigeration equipment is used for heating the store through a “warm floor” system in winter. This is one of the most representative examples of Hydroloop's energy efficiency.

Technological advantages of Hydroloop

The Hydroloop system integrates refrigeration equipment into a single glycol circuit, offering retailers a number of key benefits:

Environmental friendliness and compliance

Propane R290 with GWP=3 is fully compliant with the Kigali Amendment and F-Gas 2025 regulations.

This protects businesses from the risks associated with synthetic refrigerant restrictions.

Energy savings

Up to 30% reduction in energy consumption .

25-40% savings on heating and DHW thanks to heat recovery.

Space optimization

Eliminating the engine room frees up to 15 m² of usable space.

In the WPI (Water Pump Integrated) version, the pumps are integrated in the cabinets, making the system as autonomous as possible.

Comfort for urban areas

The absence of freon lines and remote units is an important advantage for stores located in residential buildings.

Fast installation and flexibility for retail

Hydroloop allows installation in just 2-3 hours, without welding work and without interrupting store operations. This is especially important for chains that regularly update their display or expand their assortment.

Thanks to years of experience and dozens of realized projects, 4rm refrigeration solutions provide payback within 3-5 years and stable operation in the long term.
