MTA Australasia has been supplying plug-and-play all-in-one solutions for food and beverage manufactures worldwide since 1982. Its latest product developments are designed for reliability and energy saving. This article was first published in Food & Drink Business May 2021.

MTA chillers and heat pumps have a robust design and are fitted with components purpose built for industrial applications. They are specifically designed for the food and drink industry, where absolute reliability 24/7 is required whatever the conditions.

Complete flexibility to all user needs is ensured thanks to MTA’s evaporator configuration, offering water supply temperatures from -24ºC to +30ºC. Key development areas for the MTA range of air-cooled water chillers are:

TAEevo Tech

Cooling capacity of 2–260 kW,  with MTA’s custom evaporator-in-tank configuration. The chilled water supply temperature range is 30ºC down to -10ºC for the standard range, and down to -24ºC for LWT version.

It offers precise control and adaptability to rapidly changing requirements, ensuring all process phases are catered for, even in the harshest conditions.

Aries Tech 2

Cooling capacity of 230–940 kW, with shell & tube evaporators and multi-scroll technology. This series now comes as standard with V configuration condenser coils, and optional internal chilled water buffer tanks with choice of single or dual water pumps.

This series also provides a choice on refrigerant type, standard with R410A or the option of a lower GWP refrigerant, R545B.

The iPhoenix G series

Cooling capacity of 382–1945 kW, with inverter technology for medium to large processes. This series comes as standard with screw compressors fitted with variable speed technology, shell & tube evaporators, V configuration condenser coils, and with low GWP refrigerant R513A.

This is the solution when energy-saving and adaptability are paramount.
