Daikin
launched two new air cooled inverter controlled chillers, the EWAD-AJYNN/S and the
EWAD-AJYNN/X that combine high full load efficiency with maximum efficiency at
partial load conditions. According to the companys press release, these new
chillers have the highest European Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (ESEER) in their
class - up to 5.01 for the /X version, resulting in the lowest possible annual
operating cost and representing energy savings of 20% over traditional high
efficiency chillers (EWAD-AJYNN/A) and 30% over traditional standard efficiency
chillers (EWAD-AJYNN).
Besides the overall efficiency, the VFD (Variable Frequency Drive) inverter
control of the EWAD-AJYNN/S and EWAD-AJYNN/X, has also a quiet operation and the ability to vary the
output power in relation to cooling demand by increasing the compressors
frequency.
Available in capacities from
329 kW to 515 kW, and in a standard seasonal efficiency model (/S) and high
seasonal efficiency model (/X), the new air
cooled Daikin chillers use two fully independent R-134a refrigeration
circuits, guaranteeing operation during maintenance periods.
