# Albassem Refrigeration Industries — refrigeration equipment catalogue

> Public product catalogue of Albassem Refrigeration Industries (BRI for Engineering, Cairo, Egypt): Karyer unit coolers, blast freezers, CO2 evaporators, brine coolers, condensers, dry and oil coolers, and BRI compressor racks. The catalogue publishes no prices; capacities are computed from the manufacturers' rating data and are for guidance only — confirm the selection with BRI before ordering.

## Organisation

Four levels: range (product family) > line (a vendor series) > model (one unit size, identified by its code, e.g. EB-445AE7-B07 C) > variant (defrost option; the datasheet unit). URLs follow the levels: /catalog/<range-code>/<line-slug>/<model-slug>.

## Rating conditions

- Evaporators (unit coolers, blast freezers, CO2 DX): rated per refrigerant and evaporating-temperature convention (dew / mid / bubble point; evaporating pressure in bar a where a saturation table exists). Nominal: R404A, dew point, evaporating -8 °C, air inlet 0 °C (Eurovent SC2). Rated window: air inlet −40…+20 °C, TD (air inlet − evaporating) 4–10 K.
- Condensers (EN 327): air inlet 25 °C, condensing 40 °C (ΔT 15 K), gas inlet superheat 26 K, no subcooling. Public rating basis: vendor.
- Dry coolers: water 40 → 35 °C at air inlet 25 °C. Oil coolers: oil 80 → 60 °C at air inlet 32 °C.
- Brine coolers: ethylene glycol 30 % −10 → −7 °C at air inlet 0 °C.
- Compressor racks: evaporating (Te) × condensing (Tc), dew points, superheat 10 K, subcooling 3 K; nominal points LT −35/40, MT −10/45, HT +2/45 °C.

## How to pick a unit

1. Choose a range above (or GET /catalog/api/ranges).
2. List its models, optionally filtered: GET /catalog/api/models?range=<code>&refrigerant=<name>&min_kw=<kW>&max_kw=<kW>&q=<code text>&limit=&offset=.
3. Compute the capacity at your conditions exactly as the site's calculator does: GET /catalog/api/capacity?model=<code>&<conditions>. The condition parameters are the site's own, per range type:
   - evaporator: ref, conv (dew/mid/bubble/pressure), ev (evaporating °C; bar a with conv=pressure), air (air inlet °C)
   - condenser: ref, conv (dew/mid/bubble), air (°C), dt (ΔT condensing − air, K); public basis is 'vendor'
   - dry_cooler: ref (fluid), air (°C), tin (fluid inlet °C; outlet = inlet − 5 K)
   - oil_cooler: ref (fluid), air (°C), tin (fluid inlet °C; outlet = inlet − 20 K)
   - brine_cooler: ref (fluid), air (°C), dtf (ΔT air − fluid inlet, K; outlet = inlet + 3 K)
   - rack: ref, te (evaporating °C), tc (condensing °C); dew points, superheat 10 K, subcooling 3 K
4. Open the model page (its 'url' in the API) for full specs and comparison.
5. Datasheet PDF per variant: /catalog/datasheet/<variant_code>.pdf (accepts the same condition parameters; the download is authenticated).
