250-3,000 TR (880-10,550 kW)
Although less than 5% of the global-warming potential (GWP) of a
centrifugal chiller comes from the refrigerant it uses, we still take
this contribution seriously. But simply adding a lower-GWP refrigerant
to an existing chiller won’t solve the problem. The chiller will either
run less efficiently or at a lower cooling capacity, or both. To solve
this, the re-engineered YORK® YK chiller has been designed specifically
for use with R-1234ze as the primary* refrigerant.
Additional Benefits
- Re-engineered YK chillers can be shipped from the factory with
ultra-low GWP refrigerant R-1234ze or low-GWP refrigerants R-513A or
R-515B, all without a size penalty.
- YK chillers are designed and tested to ensure refrigerant stays inside the chiller for reduced refrigerant emissions.
- The state-of-the-art OptiView™ Control Panel optimizes chiller
performance by precisely controlling the leaving chilled liquid
temperature and motor current.
- Variable-speed drive (VSD) technology can operate up to 30% more
efficiently in the real world versus chillers optimized for a single,
full-load efficiency.
