Chillers
Air-cooled chillers
Chiller, air source for outdoor installation 159-352 kW
Series
NX 0614T - 1214T

Outdoor unit for the production of chilled water with hermetic rotary Scroll compressors, ozone-friendly refrigerant R410A, axial-flow fans, shell and tubes heat exchanger, micro-channel full-aluminum air coils and thermostatic or electronic expansion valve, according to the model.The range is composed by units equipped with four compressors in tandem configuration on two independent refrigeration circuits.

CONTROLS

Electronic control W3000TE
The W3000TE controller offers advanced functions and algorithms.
The Compact keypad features an easy-to-use interface and a complete LCD display that allows consulting and intervening on the unit by means of a multi-language menu (19 languages are available).

The regulation is based on the patented “Quickmind” water temperature regulation logic uses self-adapting control to maintain flow temperatures and optimise performance even in low water content scenarios. As an alternative, the proportional or proportional-integral regulations are also available.

The diagnostics comprises a complete alarm management system, with the “black-box” (via PC) and the alarm history display (via display or also PC) for enhanced analysis of the unit operation. 

Optional proprietary devices can perform the adjustment of the resources in systems made of several units. Consumption metering and performance measurement are possible as well.

Supervision can be easily developed via proprietary devices or the integration in third party systems by means of the most common protocols as ModBus, Bacnet, Bacnet-over-IP, LonWorks.

Compatibility with the remote keyboard (up to 8 units).

The programmable timer manages a weekly schedule organised into time bands to optimise unit performance by minimising power
consumption during periods of inactivity. Up to 10 daily time bands can be associated with different operating set points.

The defrosting (air source reversible unit only) follows a proprietary self-adaptive logic, which features the monitoring of several operational parameters. This allows to reduce the number and duration of the defrost cycles, with a benefit for the overall energy efficiency.

CLASS A EFFICIENCY

The full range is available with the Class A efficiency rating. Thanks to the generous sizing of the heat exchangers and an accurate control of the fan speed, the CA versions grant a premium level efficiency in every noise configuration.

ALUMINIUM MICRO-CHANNEL HEAT EXCHANGERS

The full aluminium micro-channel condenser coils deliver high efficiency whilst ensuring a reduced refrigerant volume and a lower unit weight. The e-coating protection (optional) grants the highest level of resistance to corrosion in any condition, even in the most aggressive environments.

ELECTRONIC EXPANSION VALVE SUPPLIED STANDARD

The use of the electronic expansion valve generates considerable benefits, especially in cases of variable demand and different external conditions. It has been introduced into these units as a result of accurate design choices concerning the cooling circuit and the optimisation of operation in various different working conditions. The electronic expansion valve comes standard in the high-efficieny CA version, optional for the compact K versions.

WIDE OPERATING RANGE

Full load operation is ensured with outdoor air temperature up to 46°C, partial load operation is possible up to or even beyond 50°C. The unit can produce chilled water at negative temperature (down to -10°C of leaving water temperature). Dedicated accessories allow the unit operation down to -20°C of outdoor air temperature. 

EXCHANGER

The shell and tube exchanger allows to achieve the highest flexibility on the unit’s installation, keeping on the hydronic side the pressure drops at the minimum level, thus representing the best choice for all the hydronic applications on the residential, commercial and industrial markets.

INTEGRATED HYDRONIC GROUP

The optional built-in hydronic module already contains the main water circuit components; it is available with single or twin in-line, for achieving both low or high head.
