Laird Thermal Systems has launched a new Eco-Friendly Recirculating Chiller, utilizing the natural refrigerant R-290. The high-performance EFC Chiller Series offers zero ozone depletion potential (ODP) and low global warming potential (GWP) operation. Built on a proven platform, the EFC Chiller thermal management solution is compliant with foreseeable future global refrigerant regulations.
The reliable, cost-effective thermal management solution, charged with less than 100 grams of refrigerant, is suitable for air freight. The product features high-quality components, including a high-performance variable speed compressor to reduce system noise and maintain a high coefficient of performance (COP) during partial load operation, and a semi-closed hydraulic system to prevent evaporative losses and biological growth within the fluid.
With a cooling capacity of 2350 watts, the EFC 2400 Chiller provides precise temperature control, maintaining a fluid set point with an accuracy of ±0.1°C of the desired temperature. Offering application-specific configurations, the EFC Chiller is used in a wide range of demanding applications including analytical instrumentation, industrial, medical, semiconductor, laser systems and more.
A user-friendly touch screen display makes set-up and operation easy. These plug-and-play units run on universal input of 200-240V, 50/60Hz, and can operate anywhere in the world.
The chiller design simplifies maintenance procedures, offering significant time savings compared to competing models. Advanced features, such as the chiller’s alarm monitoring system, helps prevent failures and maximize uptime.
“Cost and performance are critical factors when selecting a chiller. Compared to traditional hydrofluorocarbon chiller systems, the EFC Chiller delivers similar performance specifications with a near-zero Global Warming Potential at a very economical price,” said Greg Ducharme, Product Director at Laird Thermal Systems.
