A leading manufacturer of soft drinks contacted Newsome with a view to replacing an aged unreliable 300kW chiller. During on site discussions, the Newsome team established the chiller was operating at a set point of 12*C and, as such, Newsome not only had the opportunity to replace an old inefficient chiller with a new energy efficient unit, they could also consider the inclusion of a free cooling coil to increase the new chiller’s life expectancy & reduce site running costs. The Newsome team completed a running cost evaluation of the running cost benefits of the free cooling addition to the circuit and, with a payback in less than 18 months, the client elected to proceed with the installation of both the new chiller and free cooling coil.
