Sonic RMS
Refrigerant Management System
Cost-effective refrigerant containment for up to six negative-pressure
chillers.
Carrier's Sonic RMS can save you money, aggravation,
refrigerant and time by combining critical refrigerant management
functions for up to six negative-pressure chillers in a single
unit. Here's how:
Sonic RMS features automatic, simultaneous, three-stage
purging and separation. Noncondensibles are removed using each
chiller's built-in purge. Then, remaining noncondensibles are
pumped to the Sonic RMS tank. Second-stage separation occurs
as refrigerant vapor condenses on the patented chilled-water cooling
unit. If the Sonic RMS detects remaining noncondensibles in the
tank, third-stage purging begins automatically, releasing no more
than 0.48 pounds of refrigerant per pound of air.
For air-bound chillers, a "Fast Start"
vacuum pump removes air and noncondensibles, bringing equipment
to 100% capacity in just three to five minutes. Sonic RMS' 10
cfm capture pump rapidly recovers refrigerant. Integral distillation
capability rapidly cleans and recycles refrigerant. Finally,
an optional overpressurization prevention package prevents refrigerant
loss from a rupture disc or relief valve.
