1
Constant temperature maintenance resulting in greater product shelf life
Elimination of lengthy defrost cycles reaching 20-30 minutes which overwork compressors and stress system components
• greater reliability and lower maintenance costs
Increased profitability for the end-user / consumer due to energysavings, maintenance savings andgreater food shelf life

Storms accumulate ice on transmission and distribution lines and towers in thicknesses of tens of millimeters
The weight of ice imposes mechanical stress on cables and towers, as well as increases wind-induced stress
One instance of severe icing can lead to catastrophic and costly damage and disruption
Energy Application: Power Lines

Today’s lines carry much more power than their original design capacity
This results in two side effects:• Positive: excess buildup of heat
in cable serves as unintended de-icer, but at a huge cost
• Negative: immense energy loss, estimated at 30% of generated power, is lost in transmission
As power loads increase with new generating plants, corresponding energy losses will also increase

VRC switches electrical resistance from a very low value (used for transmitting energy) to a much higher value (used for de-icing)
High resistance temporarily heats the line, melting ice, all while providing uninterrupted electric power
VRC is a patent-protected solution developed & owned by IceCode

VRC is a state-of-the-art use of proven technology and materials for de-icing and anti-icing applications, safely and reliably using low-voltage and, thus, low-cost switches
All functions are controlled by the utility:• Time, temperature, and location• Automatic settings or manual remote control
No interruption of service to utility customers
Lifespan of components exceeds the 30 to 50 year lifespan of cables
VRC self-regulates line temperature so that no icing damage occurs
