FLEXIBLE DESIGN

This unit is suited for a variety of steam pressures found in CHP systems, commercial cooling and industrial process applications.

LOWER COST OF OWNERSHIP

Our world-class engineering and service teams reduce the cost of ownership by simplifying the operating cycle and deliver worry-free peace of mind.

Features

Innovative YORK® two-step evaporator and absorber design enhances absorption of the refrigerant into the concentrated solution, reducing overall pressure and risks of crystallization.
Solution plate heat exchanger optimizes efficiency by enabling effective heat transfer between the diluted and the concentrated lithium-bromide solutions.
Control center with graphical, animated LCD display offers present and past operational status, data recording and chiller safeties accessible at a touch.

Lower pressure steam into the generator can be used to drive the absorption cycle for higher system efficiency.
Tubes made with deoxidized, low-phosphorus (DLP) copper protect against corrosion cracking. Water boxes coated with epoxy paint deliver corrosion resistance.
Isolation valves on the suction and discharge of the solution and refrigerant pumps allow quick and easy servicing of pumps, which typically have a 60,000-hour life.
