Brazil. The Carel Group recently presented its new factory in Brazil, located in the industrial zone of Valinhos, about 100 km northwest of Sao Paulo, thus becoming its fourth commercial and productive subsidiary, after those of Italy, China and the United States, integrating into the remaining 9 commercial subsidiaries.
The new facility has an area of more than 1,000 square meters and a "green field" plant, constituted from scratch. It will handle the production of electronic solutions for the HVAC/R sector and has high-tech facilities such as mounting systems, automatic welding and testing.
The production process is controlled by means of automatic "in-circuit" and functional test systems on 100% of the production and completed with the application phases of the protection coating.
"The choice to invest in Brazil also reaffirms our business strategy focused on growth in emerging markets, which will increasingly mark the future of the global economy," said Luigi Rossi Luciani, President of the Carel Group.
Argentina. The Ministry of Industry established new restrictions on imports of air conditioning equipment from the East, especially China, by renewing anti-dumping duties to avoid a further decline in that nation's industry.
According to the Association of Argentine Electronic Terminal Factories (Afarte), so far this year more than 1 million of these equipment have been sold, that is, 250 thousand more than those sold in the 2009-2010 season. With the measure, what the government seeks is to facilitate the development of local investments and maintain employment.
The ministry established the following prices for the entry of new equipment: US$307 for splits less than or equal to 2,500 refrigerators, and US$332.42 for those over 2,500. For compact equipment less than or equal to 2,500 refrigerators the value will be US $ 253.73 and for those over 2,500 the figure increases to US $ 277.4.
With respect to the evaporated unit of less than 2,500 refrigerators, its value will be US $ 110.49 and for those over 2,500 US $ 117.30 must be paid.

Por: Rafael Behar, Gerente de Apoyo de Aplicación, Armstrong Fluid Technology Los sistemas de energía de distrito se caracterizan por una o más plantas centrales que producen agua caliente, vapor y/o agua fría, que luego fluye a través de una red de tuberías aisladas para proporcionar agua caliente, calefacción y/o aire acondicionado a los edificios cercanos. Los sistemas de energía de distrito sirven a una variedad de mercados de uso final, incluidos los centros de las ciudades (distritos comerciales centrales), campus universitarios, hospitales e instalaciones de atención médica, aeropuertos, bases militares y complejos industriales. Al combinar cargas para múltiples edificios, los sistemas de energía urbana crean economías de escala que ayudan a reducir los costos de energía y permiten el uso de tecnologías de alta eficiencia. En este seminario web vamos a introducir a Armstrong Fluid Tecnología y su dirección para la energía urbana con enfoques en plantas de calefacción. https://www.acrlatinoamerica.com/20...
