Airedale launches the DeltaChill - a compact, quiet and highly efficient air cooled chiller
Leeds, UK, April 6, 2009 -
Airedale has launched a brand new range of high efficiency air cooled R410A chillers, the DeltaChill. A compact, quiet and highly efficient chiller, the DeltaChill has excellent part load efficiencies and configuration flexibility, as well as easy maintenance access.
Optional EC fan technology integrated with smart control logic such as interactive head pressure setpoint management and compressor sequencing raises the DeltaChill’s seasonal efficiency ESEERs* to over 4.5.
Offering 100 to 450kW nominal cooling capacities across 42 models, the DeltaChill delivers an adaptable cooling solution for a wide range of close control, comfort and process applications. Configuration flexibility enables selection of the optimum model in terms of capacity, number of fans, pump sets, energy efficiency and sound.
The DeltaChill features a distinctive ‘V’ frame, modular, coil-fan arrangement which substantially improves part load performance and control and allows easy access to all components so facilitating installation, service and maintenance. The ‘V’ frame configuration also means that the pumps are located below the condensers and can easily be maintained while the system is running.
Sequenced scroll compressors have been designed into the DeltaChill in a way that significantly increases efficiency of the chiller’s staged cooling. DeltaChill utilises up to a maximum of three scroll compressors on a single refrigeration circuit or six compressors across two circuits, thus offering two to six stages of cooling and enabling capacity to more precisely match the application.
Low sound levels have been a prime consideration throughout the design process of DeltaChill and the selection of components. DeltaChill offers two sound ranges – Quiet and Extra Quiet – both featuring latest AC fan technology as standard. Extra Quiet models are designed with slower fans to minimise sound levels and feature acoustically-lined compressor enclosures.
Optimised for R410A, the DeltaChill requires minimum refrigerant charge and has a high heat transfer coefficient. Large surface area condensing coils, electronic expansion valves, chiller sequence management and optional Energy Manager further enhance the DeltaChill’s energy optimisation.
An optional inverter controlled pump and electronic flow meter combine to offer the ultimate in water flow control. Significant savings in energy costs can be made by running the pump to achieve exactly the right flow for the application.
The advent of the DeltaChill follows close on the heels of the new SmartCool precision cooling solution recently unveiled by leading air conditioning manufacturer Airedale and paves the way for an exciting programme of new product launches during 2009.
