Patented asset level reduction and intelligence.
Refrigeration runs 24 hours a day on a thermostat that reads the air. Every door opening, every warm night, every empty cellar triggers cooling the product never needed. KBR Intelligent fits to each cold asset and only lets it run when the product itself needs it. Same temperatures. Same food safety. A third less energy on a cellar, more on a walk in.

Or start with one asset. We meter it for a week before we quote it.
One controller per cold asset.
A family of controllers, one per asset, that wire into the asset's own control circuit. They never add cooling and never hold it off past a safe band. A probe reads the product, not the air.
Each unit learns the asset it is fitted to in 24 hours and sets its own control point. Every unit reports to Pulse so the saving is measured, not estimated. Patented, designed and built in the UK, fitted to more than 15,000 cellars since 2002.
Six products.One cold chain.
Each one fits a single cold asset and reports to Pulse.
Cellar Manager
Intercepts the cooling call and lets the cooler run only when the beer needs it. Set point lifts at night when nothing is moving through, hands back before you open. Around a third of cellar cooling energy recovered, with the beer where it was.
Walk In Fridge and Freezer Manager
A probe that replicates product temperature, a door switch that blocks cooling while the door is open, separate day and night set points, and fans that rest when the coil is clear. 3,230 kWh saved per walk in per year in a measured trial.
Remote Optimiser
Demand led control for under bar and python coolers. Learns each cooler's set point. 45 to 55% of a remote cooler's electricity recovered in metered trials.
Bottle Fridge Manager
A motion sensor powers idle bar fridges down and brings them back before service.
Post Mix Timer
Chillers off during closed hours, on before trading.
LineProof
Antimicrobial drop lines and fob detection, so beer lines go five weeks between cleans instead of seven to ten days. 99.98% fewer bacteria, independently verified. Less beer down the drain, fewer engineer visits, a cleaning record a brewer will accept.
Fits in 30 minutes.Learns in 24 hours.
Fits between the panel and the plant
One unit per asset, plug in, door switch supplied. All mains connections made and certified by a qualified installer. About 30 minutes an asset, no downtime.
Learns the asset in 24 hours
It finds the lowest temperature the box actually reaches and sets its control point just above it, tuned to that cabinet.
Saves without staff noticing
Cooling is blocked during door openings and quiet nights. A traffic light display, a 30 day audit log, PIN protected settings, and a yellow button that hands the unit to an engineer for 24 hours.
On the unit,not in the cloud.
Learns your week
Builds a map of when each door is used, half hour by half hour, and tunes night mode to it. Nothing to program. It keeps up when your hours change.
Ready before opening
It leaves night mode just ahead of the first door opening it expects, so the room is at day temperature when the kitchen starts.
Early fault warning
It tracks cooling load against the unit's own baseline and against the outside temperature, and flags a drift early. Typically three weeks' warning before a cooler fails.
On the unit, not in the cloud
The intelligence runs on the controller itself. It proves itself first in shadow mode, reporting what it would do and changing nothing until you switch it on. Its learning survives a power cut.
Never above 5°C.Never above minus 18°C.
The night band never goes above 5°C on a fridge or minus 18°C on a freezer. The controller can only shorten a wait or deepen a setback within the limits your engineer has set.
After a high temperature alarm it hands back to standard settings for 24 hours. Lose the signal, the server or the board, and the asset runs on its own thermostat.
Every number came off a meter on a customer’s site.
A baseline with nothing changed, then the control switched on, then kWh and pounds on their own bill. On four walk ins across two restaurant sites, temperatures held throughout. Pulse shows compliance and savings side by side, logged for your next inspection.
