WFC SC Single stage hot water absorption chiller Cooling capacities from 17.6 kW to 175.8 kW CH K & CH MG Natural gas-fired chiller/heaters Cooling capacities from 105 kW to 703 kW Heating capacities from 86 kW to 572 kW Features WFC SC Features CH K & CH MG WFC SC chillers from Yazaki are single stage hot water driven chillers. Compared to electrically driven chillers the WFC SC series can dramatically lower system operating costs when using waste heat. Applications particularly well suited to the Yazaki WFC SC absorption chiller include waste heat recovery from cogeneration or biomass, waste heat from district power station or industry as well as solar thermal. This makes absorption cooling an environmentally friendly and cost-saving alternative to conventional air-conditioning systems. A low electrical energy consumption results in low CO 2 emissions and provide a relief for electricity grids by replacing conventional cooling demand peaks. All chillers are pre-filled and ready for “plug & chill”. Natural gas-fired chiller/heaters CH K & CH MG from Yazaki work with double effect thermo-cycle and may be used for both cooling or heating distribution. Compared to electrically driven chillers CH K & CH MG chillers can dramatically lower system operating costs. Driving heat source hot water WFC SC units can operate with entering hot water temperature from 70 to 95°C. Refrigerant cycle The Yazaki CH K & CH MG high efficiency double-effect absorption refrigeration cycle uses water as the refrigerant and lithium bromide (non-flammable, non-toxic, ecologically benign and ozone-friendly) as the absorbent. It is the strong affinity and ease of separation that these two substances have for each other that makes the cycle work. The entire process occurs in hermetic vessels in a near complete vacuum. A low electrical energy consumption results in low CO 2 emissions and provide a relief for electricity grids by replacing conventional cooling demand peaks. All chillers are pre-filled and ready for “plug & chill”. Direct fired chiller Driving energy is provided by natural gas. Typically a COP of 1.0 or above is achievable.
