Key Cooling Performance
Steady State Temperature Control
The AquaEdge 19DV maintains precise setpoints under varying load conditions. Its intelligent Purge system optimizes refrigerant flow, reducing temperature drift and improving comfort in sensitive spaces.
Low Part Load Efficiency
Centrifugal design with advanced modulating impeller delivers high efficiency at partial loads. This is ideal for facilities with fluctuating cooling demands across the day.
Water Cooled System Integration
Compatibility with Cooling Towers
Designed to connect with existing water cooled tower infrastructure, the chiller leverages tower water for condenser heat rejection. This supports higher energy efficiency and lower operating costs in suitable climates.
Space and Installation Considerations
The compact footprint simplifies mechanical room layout. Clear access paths and service clearance are still required for panel removal and maintenance tasks during installation.
