16DE/DEH

Absorption Liquid Chiller Steam-Fired, Double-Effect

Carrier’s 16DE/DEH double effect, hermetic absorption liquid chiller provides an alternative means of efficient, cost effective water chilling. By utilizing high-pressure steam, chillers avoid high-cost electricity and quality for utility rebates and incentives as a gas cooling product.

Cooling capacity: 359~5,803 kW
16DE - Double-Effect (359~2,321 kW)
16DEH - Steam-Fired Double-Effect (422~5,803 kW)


16DE/DEH absorption chiller offers functional flexibility in a variety of installations:

  • No CFCs; non-ozone depleting
  • Two-stage high efficiency design reduces energy costs
  • Quiet, vibration-free operation
  • Few moving parts equates to high reliability
"

Features

  • Double-effect absorption cycle increases efficiency
  • The 16DE chiller offers typical full load steam rates of less than 10 lb/hr-ton at standard ARI (Air Conditioning and Refrigeration Institute) operating conditions.
  • The 16DE’s standard concentration control system allows stable, part-load operation at cooling water temperatures as low as 59 F (15 C) without the need for a cooling tower bypass
  • Every 16DE incorporates a condensate drain heat exchanger which reduces steam consumption, resulting in further energy savings.
  • The overall sound level of a Carrier 16DE is typically 80dbA when measured per Standard ARI Standard 575 (latest edition).
  • Chiller performance shall be rated in accordance with ARI Standard 560 (latest edition).
  • Chiller shall be manufactured and designed in accordance with ANSI/ASHRAE 15 (latest edition), Safety Code for Mechanical Refrigeration.
  • Chiller shall be designed and constructed to meet applicable (GB) requirements.
  • Each chiller shall undergo a series of standard factory tests to ensure that the unit is leak tight, that all electrical components operate as intended.
  • Environmentally Sound: Chilled water is produced using water as the refrigerant in place of ozone depleting chlorine-based compounds
  • Alternative Energy Use: Uses hot water as primary energy source. Electricity only required for pumps, controls
  • Application Flexibility: Hybrid chiller plants allows flexibility and optimization of energy costs
  • Cogeneration applications take advantage of waste heat often available in many facilities thus improving overall plant efficiency
  • Two-stage high efficiency design reduces energy costs
  • No CFCs; environmentally friendly
  • Quiet, vibration-free operation
  • Few moving parts equates to high reliability
  • Water is used as the refrigerant in vessels maintained under low absolute pressure (vacuum)
  • The 16DE series chiller shall be provided with a factory installed and wired PD5 control system with individually replaceable modular component construction.
  • The PD5 can be interface with the Carrier Comfort Network (CCN). The user interface is a touch screen. PD5 provides VFD for solution pump control.
  • Single-point box electrical connection
  • Automatic, motorless purge system extends machine life and ensures optimum efficiency and performance
  • Anti-crystallization controls maintain proper solution concentration
  • Enhanced part load design and energy efficient operation
  • Automatic multiple protection from crystallization
  • Automatic regulation of solution concentration without any manual control valve
  • Carrier patented automatic injector purge system
  • ICVC control system with more advanced features
  • Guarantee of quality by Carrier advanced equipment and workmanship
