Today’s centrifugal chillers offer some of the highest efficiencies ever. The technology may be more advanced, and the refrigerants are newer, but some things remain the same: the systems’ need for regular maintenance.
To help today’s high-efficiency chillers maintain those efficiencies in the field, their major components — tubes, oil, compressor, condenser, refrigerant, and starting equipment, to name a few — need to be inspected and maintained regularly.
