FireChill products efficiently convert a heat source into a stream of chilled water suitable for a range of high-end residential, commercial and industrial cooling systems.
Introducing FireChill cooling technologyFireChill uses a closed loop ammonia refrigerant system to recover the energy from a high temperature source (either directly from a natural gas burner or from the waste exhaust heat from microturbines or other sources) to produce the chilled water. FireChill products are particularly relevant in areas which are hot, overpopulated have plenty of gas and/or where electricity supply is unreliable or expensive. The unique air-cooled chiller design fits well with the needs of the modern marketplace, where water-cooled absorption chillers requiring a cooling tower and careful water treatment are incompatible with typical maintenance practices.
Friends and familyA continuing development programme means the FireChill family will eventually extend to include smaller and larger systems to provide for a whole range of environments, capacities and applications. The family members include:
- AC500 – entry level 5RT, direct-fired
- ALT500 – captures waste heat recovery and operates in dual mode
- MultiPack – available to both the ALT and AC range and enables scaling to 30RT
- PowerChill – unique, integrated, all-in-one system comprising gas microturbine, chillers and heat exchanger. Containerised for ease of installation.
