FMCS-P: FriconUSA Modular Chiller System

The most common applications are for oil cooling systems in plastic processes such as injection molding, extrusion and blow molding, laser cutting, medical equipment, chemi-cal processing, beverage industry, glycol cooling systems, industrial laundry, ice rinks, thermal ice energy storage and petroleum. Additionally it is ideal for demanding air condi-tioning in industrial plants or data centers.

The FMCS-P: FriconUSA Modular Chiller System, Premium series, air cooled condenser, satisfies a wide range of capacities. The flexible modular design allows it to work inde-pendently in capacities between 15 to 50 TR or grouped in different combinations of sizes to form one or various sets and meet the requirements of capacities up to 750 TR per set.

The quality, high efficiency up to 11.3 EER and excellent IPLV, according to AHRI Standard 550/590, assure our customers reliability, low operating costs and long equip-ment life.

By using Bitzer Ecoline semi-hermetic compressors with infinite variable capacity control "CRII" between 10% and 100% or the implementation of an external Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) or “Varispeed Compressor” on the Master unit, we convert this unit into an incredible Variable Refrigerant Flow (VRF) system resulting in a greater adaptability to the thermal load of the set, stabilizing the fluid temperature and maximizes energy savings at partial load.

Bitzer semi-hermetic compressor(s) with unloader and with spring mounted vibration insulation, crankcase heater and internal thermal protection.
Step unloader(s) on each compressor (4 cylinders: 50-100%, 6 cylinders: 33-66-100%).
Aluminum structure with galvanized steel reinforcement, high efficiency condenser with reinforced structure and aluminum micro-channel coils. Its low weight and size reduces the costs of transportation, installation and construction.
Galvanized, powder coated, acoustically semi-insulated and weatherproof semi-enclosed compressor cabin.
EcoFriendly; Air cooled micro-channel condenser coil with internal volume reduced requires between 40% and 60% less refrigerant charge and results in a significant reduction of the refrigerant charge necessary for normal or flooded operations.
Wide range of applications at different working ambient temperatures.
Quiet, high efficiency, external rotor motor, two speed, AC type axial fans for a better operation.
Built-in, Direct Expansion (DX) brazed plate Evaporator, one circuit with reduced internal volume requires less refrigerant charge.
