Industrial chillers with inverter and integrated
free cooler MR-H/FC MR-M/FC
— the last series of machines designed
and produced by Green Box offer two functions
in one cabinet: the chiller function
and the free-cooler function.
The main advantage of this type of machines
is the extremely easy installation, exactly similar
to a standard chiller: in fact there is one inlet
and one outlet for the water circuit
and only one electrical connection.
A very important characteristic
of this range is related to the
fact that all the models are equipped
with two rows of fans,
one of the rows is
dedicated to the free-cooler and the other
row is dedicated to the chiller.
This MR-H/FC series combines
the traditional chiller with an additional
air/water heat-exchanger FC, to assure
a considerable energy saving whenever the ambient air
temperature allows to cool the process water.
There are three possible operating ways:
- highest energy saving, when the integrated Free-Cooler covers the complete
thermal load
- partial energy saving, thanks to the two independent rows of fans, when the
integrated Free-Cooler covers partially the required thermal load and the
remaining thermal load is covered by the chiller
- fully operating as chiller, when the ambient air temperature is the same or
higher than the process water temperature, therefore it is not possible
to use the Free-Cooler
The passage from one to the other way of operation is fully automatic and it
is controlled by a three-way valve.
This is the best way to grant high reliability to the system and easy
cleaning of the finned coils both of the chiller and of the free-cooler.
The basic series, which includes 8 models with cooling capacity from 76 to
302 kW, is characterized by a reduced price .
The commutation from operating as a free-cooler to operating as a chiller
(and viceversa) is fully automatic and it is operated by a Siemens 3-way valve,
controlled by a differential thermostat .
There is also an extremely high efficiency series MR-H/FC INVERTER.
