TurboChill DCS™ is the ultimate high capacity, energy efficient, air-cooled chiller solution, combining the unparalleled efficiency of oil-free centrifugal Turbocor® compressor technology, with the power saving benefits of free-cooling.
TurboChill DCS™ is frequently specified by data center operators requiring a high-performance cooling solution that leverages extended periods of free cooling without compromising operational integrity during mechanical cooling demand. Engineered with an emphasis on thermal reliability, acoustic attenuation and energy optimization, the system maintains stringent performance standards across varying load conditions and ambient profiles.
Customized cooling solutions
At Airedale by Modine, our design philosophy prioritizes flexibility over prescriptive solutions. TurboChill DCS™ reflects a baseline model, showcasing some achievable configurations to serve as a starting point for discussion. Our DCS engineering team collaborates directly with clients to develop customized solutions that align precisely with operational parameters and site-specific demands.
Data centers have evolved at an unprecedented rate, and so has the technology that cools them.
The dedicated data center engineering team at Airedale by Modine has redesigned the TurboChill DCS™ range from the ground up.
Re-evaluating every component for optimal efficiency, reliability and performance, design parameters have been pushed to create a chiller that not only supports the sustainability targets of our clients, but extends the boundaries of cooling technology in the data centers of today, and tomorrow.
