Components
The SpaceSaver® II System Components
The SpaceSaver® II Baffle System or Wireless Deli Moulding (WDM), is an innovative display system that improves the airflow over pegged meats, cheese and other perishables. This reduces case temperatures, energy costs and eliminates warm areas commonly found in peg bar systems without baffles.
The basic kit includes one 48″ Baffle, one 48″ Moulding, three Clips and a Splicer. The clips attach to the bar, the 48” baffle securely slips into the clips, and the moulding attaches to the baffle with integral locking tabs. A Splicer aligns continuous runs of mouldings. No tools are needed.
We offer four different moulding designs. Models 1 and 3 will position your label above the product, which is the most common method. Models 2 and 4 position it below the product like a shelf. Models 1 and 2 have channels same as a conventional tag moulding, while Models 3 and 4 have a ledge for lining up the label, no channels. The most popular is our Model 1 which we stock. The others are available on special order. They are all designed for standard 1-1/4″ shelf tags with paper or adhesive labels, ensuring clean, organized, and professional display setups.
They can be purchased as components or kit packed at no extra cost. Custom lengths for 3-foot shelf systems and pre-assembly of mouldings to baffles are also available at extra cost.
- The Basic Kit: Includes one 48″ Baffle, one 48″ Moulding, three Clips and a Splicer.
- Standard Peg Bar Adaptability: Baffles are sized to match peg hang lengths of 10”, 12”, and 15”. When ordering we need to know the overall length of the merchandise peg. Other baffle sizes are available special order.
- Durable Components: Made of super tough, food grade PETG plastic, ideal for low temperatures.
- Universal Compatibility: Adaptor clips fit most major peg bar systems such as Cannon Magna Bar, making it easy to integrate into your current setup. Inquire about clips for other peg bars.
- Uniform, Attractive Appearance: The clear moulding and baffle creates a uniform label display and the clear components allows light to shine through, enhancing product visibility and presentation.
Optimize your dairy, deli and meat displays, and maintain a clean, professional, clean look with the SpaceSaver® II Baffle System. Perfect for keeping your pegged refrigerated products at the ideal temperature while enhancing customer convenience.®
The Air Curtain Explained -
Consistent Temperatures, Energy Savings, and Superior Product Freshness
The SpaceSaver® II Baffle System ensures consistent, safe temperatures in pegged refrigerated cases by directing refrigerated air to the front of the case, creating an envelope of cold air, known as an “air curtain” around your perishable products. This addresses a common problem in refrigerated displays when shelves are removed. Cold air is physically heavier than warm air. Without shelves or baffles, the cold air dispensed from the back wall of the case falls before it can reach the front of the case. This in turn creates turbulence that sucks warm air from the store into the case. The result is that the packages in the front are warm. Depending on the temperature of the air entering the case, which is usually around 24°F, the packages in the back may freeze. This problem also applies to using push trays without baffles.
The knee-jerk reaction is to lower the suction temperature thermostat for the incoming air from your system. This only makes the problem worse by degrading the product and unnecessarily increasing the cost. The refrigeration system will run longer to maintain the thermostat setting, putting more demand on your system which will result in higher maintenance costs as well.
When this happens, product throughout the case may not be kept at or below the Food Code limit of 41°F. Some will be frozen and may thaw and freeze repeatedly. All of this will lead to increased spoilage, increases the risk people getting sick, potentially causing them to shop elsewhere, and substantially increase energy costs.
Installing the SpaceSaver Baffle System for pegged products and using baffles for push trays, will usually pay for themselves in the first year with little to no additional expense over many future years. The savings in energy consumption and costs keep accumulating year after year.
An analysis by Hussmann concluded that an 8-foot, low-front deli case set to 24° will use 800 kWh more electricity per year without baffles than with baffles. At an average of $.20/kWh, it costs $160 more per store per year than if baffles are used. If you have 24 lineal feet of case, the cost is $480. Installing baffles in 100 stores would save $48,000 PER YEAR. Note – the additional energy cost applies to the entire run of a compressor so even if the peg display is only 8 feet of a 24-foot run, your additional energy expense will be based on 24 feet.
If you turn down the thermostat to 19° to try to cool the front packages because you aren’t maintaining the air curtain, the same 8 feet will use an additional 2,380 kWh compared to using baffles or $475 per store for 8 feet; 24 feet would cost $1427/store. Installing baffles if this condition exists would save $142,700 PER YEAR.
- Consistent Temperatures: Maintains the integrity of the air curtain, preventing temperature fluctuations that compromise food safety. Prevents both freezing and overheating products.
- Lower Energy Costs: Maintaining the air curtain enables your system to operate efficiently, saving energy and lowering operational costs. It eliminates the need for lowering suction temperatures which exponentially increases energy costs.
- Spoilage Reduction: Improves product freshness and safety, increasing profitability through reduced spoilage and maintaining happy customers.
- Quick ROI: Usually pays for itself in the first year with little or no additional expense for many years. Just wipe the baffles periodically like any shelf.
