OptiChill FreeCool 750 – 1365kW

The OptiChill FreeCool (OFC) is a large capacity, low energy R134a air-cooled screw chiller that meets diverse cooling loads with a flexible, low sound cooling solution.

More than 95% free-cooling over a year
Can save more than 50% of the energy consumed by a conventional chiller
Free-cooling EER’s* of up to 75
ESEER of up to 3.44

Units within this range are Ecodesign compliant for both process (SEPR)and comfort cooling (SSCEE) applications. Please refer to the technical manual, website, or your Airedale account manager for full details

Highly energy efficient, the OptiChill FreeCool offers more than 95% free-cooling over a year (cumulative hours, London, UK) and can save more than 50% of the energy consumed by a conventional chiller thus greatly reducing operational costs.

For up to 30% of the year, the OptiChill FreeCool can operate purely in free-cooling mode, leading to Free-cooling EER’s* of up to 75. During any mechanical cooling, excellent part load efficiencies ensure an ESEER (European Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) of up to 3.44.

EER 3.21 ESEER up to 4.21

  • Free-cooling virtually all year round
  • Interactive head pressure setpoint management to achieve optimum EER
