The EcoDesign Directive has set high efficiency standards and we are all under a legislative and a moral duty to ensure chiller systems are fit for purpose and as energy efficient as possible. While EcoDesign has forced Chiller technology to improve significantly over the years, energy savings can be further enhanced by the addition of dry coolers.
However, a recent drop in dry cooler sales, shows that many new chiller installations are missing out on important energy and financial savings. Chiller systems have to hit Minimum Energy Performance Standards (MEPS) and have separate performance requirements depending on chiller type and application. Ensuring systems go above and beyond MEPS brings lower running costs, less env ...
