16DF Direct Natural Gas-
or Oil-Fired
Double-Effect Absorption
Chiller/Heater
135-1000 Tons (475-3520 kW)
A cost-effective,
CFC/HCFC-free alternative.
Unlike vapor compression-type
refrigeration systems, the 16DF operates without CFC/HCFC refrigerant
and with minimal electricity. Instead, it draws the driving force
necessary for operation from a lithium bromide/water solution,
coupled with direct firing of natural gas or oil. The result?
Economical, dependable, environmentally responsible water chilling/heating
- and the sure-fire compliance with rapidly changing environmental
codes that will allow your 16DF to operate right on into the next
century.
