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.
