| CFC Free/Ammonia Refrigerant |
Environmentally friendly and no
reclaiming of refrigerants required. Economical in cost and no exorbitant price increases
anticipated. |
| Gas Fired |
Natural Gas accepted as the fuel of
choice in the U.S.A. |
| Air Cooled |
No costly water towers or water
treatment maintenance required. |
| Chilled Water Cooling Flexibility |
Water lines can be economical PVC
plastic. Offers more design freedom than electric DX equipment since it is easier to
transfer chilled water than "CFC" type refrigerants. Units can be placed on the
ground or the roof. In either case, if fan coils are used, the chilled water piping can go
through the side of the building so there is no roof penetration. Excellent application
for process cooling for industrial equipment, plating tanks, molding equipment, etc. |
| Multiple Zoning |
True comfort control without expensive
VAV controls; multiductless fan coil applications. Fan coils can be located in the plenum
to attack specific cooling areas. No expensive ductwork. Great part load running time and
savings. |
| Part Load |
Due to the staging of the PAC Series
and the RTC Series, the part load capacity of the SERVEL Chillers will be as low as 4 tons
(PACC96) or 5 tons for the PACC120 through RTCB300. These part load capacities are
substantially lower than comparable rated capacities of electric chillers and should
result in substantial savings in operation costs of the SERVEL chillers. |
| Low Wattage/Amps Requirements |
Allows smaller back-up generator
operation and reduced wiring costs. Three ton unit can be installed on any household 110
volt circuit. |
| Single Phase Power |
Eliminates or reduces electrical
wiring upgrade costs and eliminates demand charges. |
| Demand Charges |
Light commercial electric air
conditioners have ratings as high as 1.2 kw per ton and usually require 3-phase
electricity as opposed to SERVEL Chillers requiring on 0.255 kw/ton of single phase 230
volt electricity. This difference in electrical requirements results in substantial demand
charge savings for the SERVEL Chillers and continue to increase as demand charges increase
for the life of the equipment. |
| Local Rebates |
Local utilities (both electric and
gas) are providing incentives to put in gas air conditioning. Rebates, financing, special
summer gas rates, etc. |
| Quality and Reliability |
Every Unit is operated for nearly one
hour to insure quality. No compressors. Only three moving parts. Long life, with proper
maintenance many units operate for more than twenty years. |
