Thermal Ice Building Chillers

Centrifugals will not work in this application according to the DLT application manual. they can't pull down to ice building temperatures, hope this helps you.

No, most centrifugal compressors do NOT have sufficient compression ratio, they generally only operate between 35deg F and 85 deg F.

hi there ;

centrifugals are traditional used for the chilled water temp range

scrolls tend to werk in a narrow amp range,bad when ice builds up / amps hold up even though suction pressure goes down /
a mix of scroll and reciprocating compressor seems to the most economical way / scroll for hi temp , reciprocating compressors for low temp /

I suggest to contact Trane Company, they can assist you on your requirements.

Trane offer Ice storage production from screw compressors and to CTV chillers.
