Daikin Modular Chiller

Chilled Water System....

Everthing you need under one roof

Daikin Chilled Water System works by using air to cool down the refrigerant circuit. The
cooled refrigerant is then circulated to the Brazed Plate Heat Exchanger (BPHE) where
heat exchange takes place to cool down the water. The chilled water is next circulated to
the Fan Coil Unit (FCU) for cooling at desired places.

Long Piping Application

Unlike normal Direct Expansion system with constraints in piping
design and installation, Daikin Chilled Water System has no
limitation in piping lengths by correct pump sizing. All refrigerant
circuit is within the system making it no risk of leakage in building
and no oil return issue.

Time and Cost Saving

Daikin modular chiller is designed to best facilitate user
installation. It is fully assembled, complete with all necessary
components and undergo a series of stringent testing and quality
check in the factory. Customers do not need to refill refrigerant or
invest more money due to refrigerant is pre-charged to achieve
time and cost saving.

investment. Especially for the capacity expansion project in phases,
modular chiller can be installed separately in phases to reduce high
initial investment and installation cost.

Easy Installation
Unit designed to best facilitate user installation. Due to its compact size, its dimensions and weight are significantly reduced and
hence provides highest mobility. It can be lifted without large lifting tools and located on the roof, balcony or any possible outdoor
space. Space utilization can also be maximized by installing the modular chiller separately in non-uniform compound due to
building layout.

Partial Loading
Daikin Chilled Water System is designed with two or more separate refrigerant circuits with multiple compressors. By doing so,
the unit has part load capabilities. This will improve the reliability and energy efficiency especially during low loading operations.

Redundant Operation
For modular chiller, if one of the systems breaks down, the others can still operate normally due to independent refrigerant
system design with two compressors. Similarly, if one of the units breaks down, the others can still operate normally without
affecting the whole building operation.

Power Start Up In Stages

Unit adapts modular design and start one by one, reducing
the impact upon the grid when starting and hence reduce
initial starting power surge. Unit features 2-grade modulation
which can be transformed to multi-grade modulations in
modular combinations. With operation grades controlled
electronically, the unit exerts less shock to the power grid
and saves more energy.

As R410A inverter air-cooled modular chiller adopts the extreme DC inverter Hermetic
Scroll Compressor and DC inverter fan motor technology, it enables the chiller to
achieve an IPLV of 4.36, which is 20% higher than of the non-inverter air-cooled
modular chiller. Moreover, it can also meet COP of 3.38 during full load condition. With
all the energy saving features in this inverter system, it helps to minimise the operating

Unlike non-inverter chiller with only 2-stage capacity

control (0% - 50% - 100%), Inverter E-Series can
perform step-less capacity control (15% ~ 100%)
precisely which is to control the output capacity
according to dynamic load requirements by adjusting
compressor frequency. In other words, it can be adjusted
to low output capacity to suit to low load condition for
energy saving.

Thus, each unit auto adaptive to real capacity needs for a high level of
comfort.
Besides that, it is also equipped with good humidifying function even
for low load and high humidity conditions. With that, it can be applied
at process cooling as well as high humidity industrial area.

Reliability of inverter compressor is always better since there is lesser

Low Inrush Current

By utilising the innovative inverter variable speed fan motor,

the sound performance introduces sound level as low as 58
dBA with respect to conventional non-inverter unit. At
part-load conditions, typical at the night, the inverter device
adjust speed variation to have lower sound levels than
conventional on-off compressor systems in both running
and start-up periods.

Inverter driven compressor requires lower starting torque which features soft starter to ensure a smooth ramp up profile
without withdrawing high current. This aspect avoids peak fluctuation that potential to harm sensitive equipment and no
need of expensive additional components for power factor correction.
