Turbocor VTCA400 Compressor – Danfoss

Danfoss’s Turbocor® VTCA400 Compressor is an oil-free, variable-speed, magnetic bearing centrifugal compressor that utilizes a hybrid compression design that is optimized for use with low-GWP refrigerant R-1233zd in water-cooled chiller applications. The patent pending design uses a combination mixed flow and radial impellers, enabling both high performance and a compact footprint. As a result, the VTCA400 reduces footprint and weight by up to 50% compared to traditional designs, giving users the advantage of a more compact chiller design and more mechanical room space — as well as lower chiller costs.
The compact design of the VTCA400 offers significant benefits to chiller manufacturers, including reduced costs, higher efficiency, lower product carbon footprint, improved serviceability, and redundancy. Manufacturers have the ability to place multiple compressors on the chiller, which provides higher part-load efficiency and more redundancy compared to single compressor configurations.

COOL-FIT PE Plus Pre-Insulated Polyethylene Piping System – GF Piping System

The new COOL-FIT® PE Plus pre-insulated polyethylene piping system from GF Piping Systems builds on the performance of its predecessor by providing significantly reduced maintenance and operational costs and faster installation time. The system is not only ideal for food and beverage production, such as dairies, fruit and vegetable processors, slaughterhouses, breweries, and wineries but also pharmaceutical production, refrigerated storage facilities, and data centers.

COOL-FIT PE Plus includes a complete range of pre-insulated pipes, fittings, and valves that efficiently convey brine, glycol, ethanol, and chilled water in temperatures from minus 58°-140°F (minus 50°60°C). All surfaces are sealed, vapor tight, and 100% UV-resistant. The system is 100% maintenance-free and will not corrode over time. These characteristics reduce expensive operation interruptions and maintenance.

Radiant Auto-Balancing System – Viega

Viega LLC’s new Radiant Auto-Balancing System (RABS) delivers an unprecedented level of control and consistency in radiant heating systems.

RABS gives users the ability to independently control each zone in a radiant heating system. Balancing valves are not required, and installers can commission as many as eight thermostats and 12 circuits per control unit. RABS achieves the desired temperature in each zone by analyzing the supply water temperature, each circuit’s return temperature, and zone air temperatures where a wireless thermostat is used. The system offers four operation methods that complement each other.

A web-based, app-enabled control lets users to manage the system from anywhere in the world. It allows remote control of power levels, thermostats and operation software. A local device can access the web app or it can be accessed remotely via the internet.
