General Description

Screw compressor central water chilling stations are available in water-cooled and remote air-
cooled designs. They differ only in the condensing media used. These units are configured
with two independent circuits using multiple compressors for each circuit. This manual lists
information specific to these units.
Screw Compressor central chilling stations may be configured with stainless steel pump tanks
for use as reservoirs for chilled water processes. These dual-well models hold hot and cold
water before and after it is pumped through the chiller. Tanks have recirculation pump(s) to
send return water to the chiller and process pump(s) to pump cooled water directly to process.
Standby pumps may be utilized to distribute pump service or to allow uninterrupted chiller
operation during pump maintenance.
Properly installed, operated, and maintained Screw Compressor Central chilling stations
provide many years of reliable operation. To get the most satisfaction from your new
chiller, read and follow the instructions in this manual.
