Design and engineering

Design the cold room, calculate its load and complete it with correctly sized equipment.

Manage geometry, panel and door decisions, cooling load and equipment capacity in one project. Design changes remain connected to downstream engineering and quote preparation.

2D/3D design

Manage dimensions, angles and room relationships together.

Create rectangular or polygonal rooms with precise dimensions. Place doors, panels, columns, partitions, equipment and accessories, then inspect the same arrangement in 3D.

Live teamwork

Work in the same project and see changes without waiting for a handoff.

Multiple team members can open the same project. See who is present and whether they are working in 2D or 3D, follow a colleague’s view, and receive saved project changes live.

Engineering calculation

Understand what creates the cooling requirement.

Envelope, infiltration, product, people, lighting, fan, defrost and auxiliary loads are calculated separately. Inputs, methods and intermediate results remain available for review.

Lighting engineering

Solve luminaire layout inside the same cooling-load model.

Use the selected luminaire’s luminous flux and power to calculate target illuminance, fixture count, row-and-column grid and spacing. The resulting electrical power flows into the room’s internal load through the same engine.

Equipment and piping

Evaluate equipment against the current project load.

Compare capacity-matched candidates for individual or central systems. Manage indoor/outdoor relationships and lay out the 3D refrigerant pipe route in the project.
