Indoor Air Cooled Chiller Packages

Berg industrial indoor air cooled refrigeration units have a choice of semi-hermetic refrigeration compressors, scroll refrigeration compressors or screw refrigeration compressors with a double pump tank mounted with the chiller module, plus the advantage of being able to reclaim waste heat. All Berg industrial refrigeration units are fully tested under actual load conditions before being shipped.

Indoor Air Cooled Chiller Packages

The Berg air cooled package chillers are recommended for industrial applications with clean air, when heat reclaim is beneficial, and wherein an integrated pumping system is required. These units are part of Berg’s complete line of packaged industrial chillers. They are self-contained and include both a liquid chiller and a double pump tank system for a complete industrial cooling solution. This chiller comes pre-piped and pre-wired, and requires a minimum of installation effort and only occupies a small amount of floor space.

Centrifugal Pump Assembly

  • Evaporator pumps circulate water from the hot well to the chiller and back to the cold well.  This provides a constant flow and pressure for stable operation, maximum efficiency, and safety.
  • Process pumps circulate water from the cold well to the process and back to hot well.  This flow may fluctuate without affecting the flow through the chiller.
  • Optional combined standby pump, complete with valved header assembly is capable of acting as either the chiller or process pump if necessary to prevent any unnecessary shut-downs due to an operating pump fault.

Pump assembly includes:

  • Close coupled TEFC motor
  • Non-overloading impeller
  • Cast iron volute
  • Brass shaft sleeve
  • Mechanical seal
  • Suction shut‑off valve
  • Discharge flow/shut‑off valve
  • Discharge check valve
  • Discharge pressure gauge
