Advanced Refrigeration Technologies Products Now Worth Double Rebate Dollars.Business Editors LA QUINTA A division of Seagate that was originally an acquisition and then absorbed into the company by 1999. Quinta was the developer of Optically Assisted Winchester (OAW) technology. See OAW. , Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 2, 2000 Advanced Refrigeration refrigeration, process for drawing heat from substances to lower their temperature, often for purposes of preservation. Refrigeration in its modern, portable form also depends on insulating materials that are thin yet effective. Technologies (OTC OTC See: Over-the-counter. OTC See over-the-counter market (OTC). BB:ARGT ARGT annual ryegrass toxicity. ) has been authorized to be included in a doubling of the energy efficiency rebates presently being offered by the Pacific Gas & Electric Company (PG&E). PG&E recently extended its rebates for commercial refrigeration to incorporate Evaporator Fan Motor Controllers and has included those developed by Advanced Refrigeration Technologies (ART). This program will now give even larger cash rebates to commercial customers who purchase and install the ART fan controller in their walk-in cooler or freezer. This new program allows the utility customer to increase profits through energy saving more rapidly. The rebate reduces the pay back period for the device to less than three months, down from one year. The rebate can be applied to any of the three units manufactured and marketed by ART. All three models of evaporator fan motor controllers (ART4000, ART5000 and ART6000) regulate the speed of the evaporator fan motors in walk-in refrigerators and freezers to meet the need of each phase of the refrigeration cycle Refrigeration cycle A sequence of thermodynamic processes whereby heat is withdrawn from a cold body and expelled to a hot body. Theoretical thermodynamic cycles consist of nondissipative and frictionless processes. . It is the control of the motor speed that conserves energy and saves the customer money. The ART5000 and ART6000 store the energy savings data and can be interrogated by a personal computer or can send the data via modem to wherever the customer wants it sent. These systems have applications in fast food restaurants, convenience stores The following is a list of convenience stores organized by geographical location.
