Planet friendly process cooling
Designed specifically for industry applications, the planet friendly i-Chillers feature the lowest global warming potential (GWP), and ozone depleting potential (ODP) refrigerants.
Unlike traditional HVAC units, our i-Chiller range has been designed with process applications in mind. As such, they can operate faultlessly and maintain accurate temperature control 24/7 under highly differing, and abruptly fluctuating operating conditions.
The planet friendly i-Chillers represent continuous progress in our e-Mission critical initiative. This ambition encapsulates several intrinsically linked energy-saving concepts and a range of next generation low GWP and ODP refrigerants, helping our customers to save energy, reduce costs, and lower their carbon footprint in the process.
Within the planet friendly portfolio, our customers can find solutions to achieve increased productivity, high temperature control precision, and elevated product quality with highest environmental awareness.
Futureproof your operation
The fluorinated refrigerants phase down in the UK and Europe requires that the production of virgin fluorinated gases (HFCs) is gradually reduced, and HFC consumption is cut 79% by 2030. This makes it even more vital to make a timely transition to high efficiency refrigerants with a low GWP.
R-454B Refrigerant
The R454B refrigerant is a non ozone depleting HFO/HFC* blend with a GWP level of 467, the lowest among the refrigerants available today for scroll compressor technology. R454B offers 76% reduction in direct GWP impact against R410A and 34% reduction against R32 refrigerant.
The chillers with R454B will deliver higher seasonal efficiency compared to R410A, offering up to 6% improvement, and offer more application flexibility compared to R-32 thanks to wider operating maps.
*HFO – Hydrofluoroolefins; HFC – Hydrofluorocarbons
R-290 Refrigerant
The R290 is a non-toxic natural refrigerant which causes no damage to the ozone layer. It has a GWP of 3 and excellent thermodynamic properties, offering higher energy efficiency ratio (EER) versus traditional alternatives.
Applying R290 allows customers to avoid carbon taxes, benefit from national incentives, and future-proof their investment as R-290 is exempt from the HFC refrigerant phase out programmes.
R-717 (Ammonia) refrigerant
The R717 (Ammonia or NH3) is a natural refrigerant with zero GWP and ODP. Its performance allows for deep freezing processes requiring heat transfer fluids between -12°C and -30°C.

Process chillers
Process chillers are designed and built from the ground up to be more reliable, operate within tighter specified tolerances and to be more robust for continued operation when compared to chillers designed for HVAC. Our i-Chillers are specifically designed to cope with the rigours of manufacturing and critical processes. Process chillers may cost slightly more than equivalent HVAC or comfort chillers but are significantly better value and fit for purpose in a critical process. A process chiller will deliver more accurate leaving water temperature, operate trouble free for longer, have a lower op-ex cost and a greater residual value. <strong>Chillers built for process</strong> Our range of process chillers is designed specifically for process, with features such as unique finned coil evaporators immersed inside the cold-water tank, making them less susceptible to freezing and able to cope with variable load and process fluctuations. The large integrated cold side buffer tank enables closer temperature control for process tolerance and reduces wear and tear from compressor start and stop operations. i-Chillers have high-pressure pumps as standard to cope with the more complex pipework found in process applications. Being fully enclosed in robust steel panels not only protects but creates a smaller footprint for ease of access and plug & play installation. <strong>Our approach</strong> Since 1989 we have created bespoke temperature control solutions across all manufacturing, industrial and critical process applications. With a network of highly experienced technical engineers nationwide, we will visit your site to understand your exact application needs and audit your facilities and potential constraints to develop the optimum solution for your circumstances.
