Sierra is a European leader in the production of finned block heat exchangers for use in civil and industrial applications. The Sierra heat exchanger catalogue offers a wide range of solutions in terms of external copper tube diameters (or copper-nichel tubes), coil patterns and fin types (alluminium or copper) available. THE CORPORATE SYSTEM Investments in research, a production philosophy focusing on maximum qualification, specialised technicians and teams, guarantee constant and high quality standards. Sierra does not just produce: each new client is a business partner, and the optimal solution for any situation is identified, designed and manufactured in close collaboration and in accordance with the specific needs of the client. Sierra’s core lies in its staff who, together with Giordano Riello, built this successful company. Involving and training people is the foundation of Sierra's quality philosophy.

RESEARCH AND INNOVATION THE CERT3000 RESEARCH CENTRE There can be no technological progress without continuous research. The new CERT 3000 facility, created at the Isola della Scala plant, is another sign of the quality policy that Sierra has always adopted. The new testing, research and experimental laboratories that Sierra makes available to developers and designers, derive from the thirty years of experience gathered in the field of research aimed at obtaining maximum efficiency for refrigerators and thermal exchangers.The laboratories use the most advanced precision technologies for measurement systems. With CERT 3000, developers and designers of air conditioning units, refrigeration systems and thermal exchange devices benefit from a complex which is spread over 450 sq.m., featuring a testing and experimental facility with complete test services for energetic efficiency that only a leading company like Sierra can provide. OVERVIEW OF THE TESTS CARRIED OUT BY CERT 3000 The CERT 3000 laboratory can test small and medium-sized thermal exchange devices. The laboratory employs high precision thermometers, flow, humidity and pressure transducers; a periodical calibration of instruments is performed by an ACCREDIA accredited laboratory. The research is carried out for the optimization of heat exchangers and air conditioning machines with new low GWP refrigerant gases, in order to allow out customers to comply with the rules of the F-Gas regulations, for the reduction of the amount of refrigerant gas, and Ecodesign legislation, for the reduction of electrical absorptions. In addition, in the laboratory area, a workshop has been created for the realization of prototypes. SIERRA STUDIO The customers can select autonomously the proper heat exchanger, simulating its behavior under different working conditions. Sierra Studio offers to the Customers the important know-how about the heat exchange that Sierra S.p.A. has developed in the ongoing searching in materials, fluids and technologies. Sierra Studio is the first step towards a wide renovation process where the Customers will be supported by software during the selection and offer phases.
