Turbocor Chillers and Magnetic Bearing Chillers
Heat from process water is absorbed by water cooled chillers and transfers to a secondary water source such as a cooling tower. Water cooled chillers are generally used for large capacity industrial installation, where air cooled chillers are not an option due to the heat generated.
The Koch Applied Solutions line includes a variety of water cooled industrial chillers including Smardt Turbocor chillers and magnetic bearing chillers.
Smardt Water Cooled Industrial Chillers
Smardt water cooled chiller designs minimize complexity and streamline operation, delivering dependable performance and low operating costs.
- Oil-free
- Flooded shell-and-tube evaporation
- Soft start
- Low power consumption
- Low maintenance costs
- Remote monitoring option
- High reliability
- Only one main moving part
Smardt’s water cooled chiller range – 60 TR through 3600 TR – is designed for a 30-year operating life, with the lowest lifetime operating costs in the market.
Magnetic Bearing Chillers
Smardt proprietary magnetic bearings replace conventional oil-lubricated bearings in their water cooled chillers. This eliminates high friction losses, mechanical wear, and high maintenance oil management systems. This results in energy savings of 35 percent and more over conventional chillers while ensuring long-term dependability.
Turbocor Chillers
Smardt water cooled chiller designs were founded on Turbocor chiller technology to enhance chiller performance with the benefits of Turbocor oil-free centrifugal compressors.
