HFO chiller
29 January 2014
Part of a long-term strategy to develop products that reduce the total cost of ownership, Star Refrigeration has extended its high efficiency Indigochiller range to include HFO refrigerants. This solution provides an alternative to R134a as uncertainty remains in Europe over the future of the F-Gas Regulations and HFC refrigerants.
A highly energy efficient, low noise chiller solution for building services, HVAC and process cooling, the new unit uses the synthetic refrigerant R1234ze, which has a low Global Warming Potential of 6.
Star teamed up with Danfoss Turbocor and Honeywell when developing the new range, which features construction designed to minimise the risk of refrigerant leakage and provide an efficient operating life of 20+ years.
