The V-Range includes all chillers with scroll and reciprocating compressors, whose main feature is the guarantee of reliability and durability, with consequent advantages in terms of cut in management and maintenance costs. These chiller are characterized by compact size and light weight, and, therefore, turn out to be particularly suitable for small plants. In addition to that, the few vibrations and the very low noise levels ensure that these chillers are used in industrial but also in civilian applications (comfort cooling). The great innovation introduced by Geoclima, especially as far as scroll compressors with R410A are concerned – but some applications have been studied also for reciprocating compressors with R290 – consists in the possibility to combine several compressors in a single unit. Indeed, if this kind of chiller usually has a very reduced capacity (from 3 to 50 kW), the redundancy enables the development of machine with higher capacity, even of hundreds kW. In thereby, the V-Range units are no more restricted to small-size applications but, on the contrary, can also be used for bigger plants.
Within the V-Range, we have developed two lines of products, which are distinguished by the type of refrigerant used: the Energymiser line and the Greenmiser line.
Refrigerants
The Energymiser equipment offers chillers with scroll compressors and R410A, a refrigerant that came into use to replace the R22. This refrigerant has been used for more than a decade: such experience ensures not only a deep knowledge of its qualities and wide range of use, but also great reliability and efficiency. Moreover, compared with other refrigerants, R410A provides higher energy efficiency and lower energy consumption. The V-Range Energymiser chillers are small and compact. They are characterized by low vibration and low noise levels: these features, together with the reduced management costs, make these chillers particularly suitable for “comfort cooling” applications.
All units are tested in a 120 square metres of our factory are dedicated to a fully equipped test center in order to test our chillers by simulating the environmental conditions of the chambers they will be placed in. The new test bench is able to provide a climatically controlled room for air cooled chiller up to a maximum ambient temperature of 52 °C and a minimum of 0 °C.
Since 1994, we have been designing and developing special chillers for applications in air conditioning and refrigeration systems, with particular attention to quality and environmental sustainability. This has helped us to receive prestigious international awards and obtain quality certifications according to the strictest standards.
