Smardt launches AeroPure AF Series air-cooled chillers

Smardt Chiller Group, manufacturers of equipment for data center, industrial and comfort air conditioning, has launched the AeroPure AF Series, a new generation of air-cooled chillers with oil-free, magnetically suspended compressors. The AF Series chillers are available in 72 predesigned, preconfigured models: 36 models for data center cooling, with capacity range of 211 to 2500 kW (60 to 710 TR), and 36 models for comfort air conditioning, with capacities ranging from 211 to 1800 kW (60 to 510 TR). Configurable options include extensions for extreme high and low ambient temperatures, harmonic filters, quiet variable speed fans, Smardt Cool (to optimize low-ambient performance), and Smardt Fast Restart (minimizing power failure impact). The AF Series is Smardt’s next series of air-cooled chillers, a development of the AE Series, operating with an Energy Efficiency Ratio (EER) from 10.1 – 13.4  and an Integrated Part-Load Value (IPLV) from 19.3 to 25.9 based on AHRI conditions and EER up to 16 (based on 88°F EWT,  74°F LWT,  113°F OAT ), making it even more energy-efficient than previous models. Certifications by AHRI, ETL, and CE guarantee reliable, safe, and code-compliant operation of the new chiller series. To simplify installation and operation in confined building spaces, the overall footprint and dimensions of the chillers have been optimized compared to the previous models. For easy global transportation & shipment requirements, the units in the AeroPure AF Series have been designed to fit comfortably into 20- or 40-foot high-cube shipping containers for most configurations.
