Liquid chillers designed for process cooling applications operating 24/7, 365 days a year, air-cooled and equipped with two refrigeration circuits and tandem/trio scroll compressors optimized for the use of R410A/R454B refrigerants, plate or shell-and-tube evaporators, and cooling capacities ranging from 165 kW to 560 kW. Cosmotec’s experience in process cooling has led to the development of this range of industrial chillers, capable of meeting the wide operating limits required by modern energy-saving technologies, both on the ambient side and the process side. All chillers in the WPA range are characterized by high levels of energy efficiency (Class A or B) and comply with the requirements of the 2009/125/EC Ecodesign ErP 2021 Directive.
Low GWP (Global Warming Potential) version
The WPA units are available with the low-environmental-impact refrigerant R454B, which ensures a reduction in global warming potential (GWP = 467). Classified as A2L, R454B is non-toxic but mildly flammable, in safety group PED 1.
Free Cooling
WPA chillers are available with an Integrated Free Cooling version, providing significant energy savings, particularly in applications requiring high cooling fluid temperatures (such as plastics processing and data centers) and in installations located in cold or temperate climates (minimum ambient temperature down to -20°C). By using outdoor air to cool the fluid, the Free Cooling system can completely replace the refrigeration circuit under suitable conditions, allowing the compressors to be switched off entirely.
