Background
An existing customer proposed a large chill distribution store with a high product throughput. The store is to operate at +1⁰C and must have a high degree of standby using a minimum charge Ammonia system and energy efficient.
Short description of the solution
To provide a high degree of standby we supplied and installed three independent ammonia Grasso chiller packs with air cooled condensers on a common secondary system using Tyfoxit. Each chiller has a nominal capacity of 500kW maintaining a store temperature of +1⁰C using compressor waste heat. The Tyfoxit is heated to provide warm Tyfoxit for cooler defrosting reducing energy consumption. The control system is fully integrated allowing remote access for off-site monitoring
Key figures
Capacity in kW (at temperature level): 500kW
Refrigerant: R-717 (NH3)
