Description
The TICA Large Air-Cooled Scroll Chiller (Heat Pump) is a premium central HVAC solution engineered to provide dependable cooling and heating for medium to large commercial and industrial facilities. Designed with modular architecture and high-efficiency scroll compressors, the system offers exceptional performance, operational flexibility, and long-term energy savings while eliminating the need for cooling towers or complex condenser water systems.
Configuration & Scalability
The system is designed with modularity at its core, offering high installation flexibility and built-in redundancy:
-
Broad Capacity Range: Available in cooling-only and heat pump configurations, with single-module capacities ranging from 165 kW to 500 kW.
-
Modular Coupling: Supports the linking of up to 8 modular units to work in unison, allowing for scalable system expansion and exceptional backup capacity.
-
Eco-Friendly R410A Refrigerant: Utilizes a chlorine-free refrigerant with zero Ozone Depletion Potential (ODP) to ensure high heat transfer efficiency with a reduced environmental footprint.
Key Technical Features
