Centrifugal Chillers
For medium-sized to large
facilities, centrifugal chillers
are a popular choice. They
offer high operating efficiency
and low maintenance  
requirements in a relatively
compact design. But while
centrifugal chiller PM
requirements might be low,
their maintenance is critical.  
Ignoring ECT tube inspection
may drastically reduce
performance and efficiency,  
while contributing to frequent
breakdowns and early failure.

While centrifugal chillers
have been the industry
standard for years,
absorption units are  gaining
ground.  The cost of  
electricity, particularly for
those who pay high demand
charges or peak rates, has
led many facilities to
consider chillers driven by
alternative fuels.  With its
ability to use steam or
natural gas, the absorption
chiller gives users that
flexibility.
