Challenge
The pharmaceutical manufacturer was looking for a new centrifugal water-cooled chiller to work with its existing Trane compressor chillers. The main objective was increased sustainability and reliability, with improved efficiency.
Solution
Trane delivered a 3MW centrifugal water-cooled chiller – at the time, this was the first chiller to use HFO R1233zd refrigerant.
The benefits of the eCTV #CenTraVac chillers are well-known to the facility engineers:
• Most Efficient - the industry’s highest full- and part-load #efficiency
• Lowest Emissions - a near-zero documented leak rate
• Most Reliable - the industry’s highest design #reliability rating of 99.7 % with an average lifetime of 30 years, some have even lasted over 50 years
• Quietest, vibration-free operation: Low-speed, direct-drive design gives CenTraVac the industry’s lowest sound and vibration levels.
Results
Thhis new eCTVCenTraVac chiller has joined six other high-performing Trane centrifugal compressor chillers, up to 25-year old, on site.
Series E™ CenTraVac™ chillers are part of Trane EcoWise™ portfolio of products that are designed to lower their environmental impact with next-generation, low GWP refrigerants and high-efficiency operation. With an average lifetime of 30 years — some have even serviced more than 50 years.
