What are ideal applications for a large gas chiller system?
The ideal application for a large gas cooling installation would be for a project or facility that has many of the following attributes: Cooling load of 200 tons or more Built-up chilled water system In preliminary planning/design phase Electric power has high demand charges and/or high on-peak rates Majority of the cooling load is during periods of peak electric rates Higher emphasis on life-cycle cost than first cost As noted above, the economics of a project are site specific and do need to be evaluated accordingly
