Corval was the refrigeration contractor responsible for installation of a complete refrigeration system at Dold Foods’ new 150,000 SF refrigerated warehouse, where pre-cooked bacon is produced for commercial customers.
Corval provided engineering, design, procurement, and site installation of the two-stage refrigeration system, providing room cooling and bacon processing cooling. The system provides 630 TR low side/2,050 high side, which is expandable to 1,000 TR low side/2,900 high side.
The scope of work included a complete compressor and engine room, 5 high side compressors, 3 low side compressors, 12 blast evaporators, 58 evaporators, 2 four fan condensers, as well as ammonia refrigerant piping for low temperature service (below -20° F), which included stainless steel piping in production areas for R717 refrigerant grade ammonia. The full refrigeration vessel assembly included high-temperature and low-temperature receivers, a high pressure receiver, and an inter-cooler.
The aggressive schedule– just eight months to design and complete the work– required day and night crews to successfully execute in the field for this large design-build project. Corval also provided complete commissioning and start up support.
