Artificial intelligence (AI) has become an aspect of everyday life. E-commerce, smartphones, social media, manufacturing, appliances and almost everything else has some form of AI.

AI and advanced machine learning algorithms analyze streams of data to gain insights and optimize performance of almost every system. Commercial refrigeration, food retail and foodservice are no exception.

AI is not a new concept for the food retail and foodservice industries. AI assists in customer service related areas such as personalizing their consumer rewards and loyalty programs. It also assists in food purchasing and tracking. And it also exists in refrigeration, assisting with equipment maintenance, food storage issues and energy management.

The advantages that AI offers are numerous. It delivers significant reliability and longevity benefits to commercial refrigeration equipment, it optimizes food quality and safety and reduce waste, it tracks and contributes to enhancement of employee practices and helps to monitor energy and equipment use.

So how can you get this AI for your commercial refrigeration units?

Our ArtikControl™ WIC & WIF is a state of the art Intelligent Energy Saving Refrigeration Controller for the retro-fit of Walk-In Coolers & Freezers.

A configurable energy saving refrigeration controller for the retrofit of walk-in cooler and freezers with: web-based scheduling and set-point optimization; integrated evaporator controls; adaptive defrost controls; failure alarming; predictive diagnostics and ready for demand-side-management (DSM) program integration and, all while offering remote monitoring and control from anywhere via a smartphone, tablet or laptop.

“Arti” our ArtikControl™ Dashboard offers real-time information, remote access, and intelligent energy controls. Giving you the constant information you need to monitor your systems.
