III. Unit Description
1. Scope of Application, Purposes and Characteristics
The modular Inverter air-cooled chiller (heat pump) uses the innovative inverter technology
and modular design. The entire unit is composed of one or more modules, each of which
consists of one or two independent cooling systems. The electric controllers of modules are
independent of each other and modules are connected through communication cables to
form a control network.
Modular inverter air-cooled chillers (heat pumps) can be widely applied in new and
restructured Industrial and civil construction projects, such as hotels, shopping malls, office
buildings, entertainment centers, theaters, stadiums, plants, hospitals, high-grade apartments,
and industrial cooling sites. Modular air-cooled chillers (heat pumps) do not need dedicated
equipment rooms and cooling towers, and therefore, they become the optimal choice for
Central Business Districts (CBDs) and water-stressed regions.
The unit has the following features:
High efficiency, energy saving, and reliable performance
The unit uses efficient DC Inverter scroll compressors and world famous excellent cooling
parts, to ensure the maximum energy efficiency of the unit. The modular combination design
allows the unit to automatically regulate in the case of partial loading, thereby achieving
energy-efficient operation.
High-precision EXVs for throttling
The unit uses Electronic Expansion Valves (EXVs) as fine and adaptive control components
for refrigerants, to implement dynamic matching between the refrigerant and compressor for
the cooling system. This fully improves the optimum efficiency of every component in the
system and ensures the best operation pressure and temperature for the system.
Support for connection to the building automation system
The unit is equipped with RS485 interfaces for connecting to the centralized building control
system. It can be integrated into the centralized building control system via legitimate
protocols, to implement building automation.
Convenient installation
The compact air-cooled heat pump modular machine can be placed on roofs, spacious
balconies, and other appropriate open spaces, which saves installation space. In addition,
cooling towers, cooling water pumps, boilers, and relevant pipes are not required, making the
installation of the entire central air conditioner easier.
