Air-cooled, low energy chiller range launched
September 1st 2006

Coolmation, distributor of Rhoss chillers into the UK, has introduced the new aircooled series of low energy Powercool chillers (76.5 to 182kW cooling capacities) for comfort aircooling applications.

Coolmation says that these were developed by Rhoss to provide the best EER (European Efficiency Ratio) performance in their range.

The eight-strong Powercool series is approved and listed under the government's ECA scheme.

Running on R407C refrigerant, Powercool chillers can generate water within a temperature range of +20 to -5C as standard or, optionally, down to -10C if required.

They integrate the latest in energy efficient heat exchanger and scroll compressor technology combined with advanced control strategy techniques to deliver low energy performance whatever the application.

Every Powercool chiller features two high efficiency scroll compressors as standard. Reliable in operation, these compressors are housed in a dedicated, sound insulated compartment, ensuring low noise levels and reduced vibration.

Each chiller also incorporates special plate type evaporators with two refrigerant circuits and one water circuit in a design that is said to improve energy efficiency at partial loads.

Chiller operation is managed by an intuitive, multi-functional microprocessor controller which automatically regulates fan speed to optimise efficiency and maintain constant condensing temperatures in ambient conditions to -10C.
