Abstract
Standalone and self-contained cooling systems using compressed liquid and/or gas COcontainers positioned in an insulated or non-insulated vessel and consisting of a specially designed unit where the containers are vertically positioned in an upright or upside-down position. The liquid and/or gas COcoolant is then released into capillary tube(s) embedded into a heat transfer plate or heat exchanger thus leveraging the COcoolant properties. The temperature is controlled by a metering COreleasing system encompassing an electronic control device which can be operated remotely and/or via a touch screen and which sends alerts when pre-defined thresholds are exceeded. The invention's metering COreleasing system may be triggered by an electronic or a thermostatic valve or may be triggered manually or by an electronic solenoid. The invention's cooling system also encompasses check valves, which avoid liquid and/or gas COfrom escaping when removing or replacing COcontainers individually.
