Turbocor Compressor Chillers

Turbocor Compressor R134A air and water cooled chillers from 150kW to 2100kW
The Rhoss Turbo Power range of chillers is manufactured around the revolutionary Turbocor oil free centrifugal compressor which offers unprecedented levels of energy efficiency when compared with conventional screw, scroll or reciprocating compressors.
The compressor is one of the largest energy consumers within the HVACR system and at the heart of chiller operation. It’s for this reason that Turbocor chillers are such an important step forward for energy efficiency. In its target capacity range, there is no other compressor currently on the market that produces better efficiency in operation.
However, it is the seamless integration of the Turbocor compressor within the Turbo Power chiller which also featuring new heat exchange and control technology, which is providing outstandingly reliable operating efficiencies.
High points of the Turbo Power chillers include:
- An EER in excess of 8 at part load conditions and up to 4 at full load, representing an efficiency increase of more than 100% and up to 10% respectively on conventional chillers.
- Magnetic compressor bearings which have friction losses typically 500 times less than traditional oiled bearings, reducing starting current to just 2A
- An oil free compressor avoids the need for an oil management system and the inherent costs of maintenance.
- Micro channel condenser coils (air cooled series) increase performance by up to 45%, providing further energy savings by reducing the capacity or number of fans required.
- Condenser fans feature low noise sickle blades arranged to reverse on the compressor off cycle, to blow out accumulated dust on condenser surfaces to maintain efficient heat exchange.
- Flooded type evaporator specially designed for R134A and more efficient than a direct expansion shell and tube evaporator
- Electronic expansion valves achieve precise control of refrigerant mass flow and as the pressure drop across this valve is significantly less than a mechanical one, the system can operate at lower condensing pressures and further reductions in compressor power input are achieved.
- Microprocessor control provides management of each compressor and condenser fan speed control to give smooth control of variations in load and ambient temperatures down to 5ºC.
- Eurovent guaranteed performance. The performance of this range is further verified by testing carried out in the Rhoss Laboratory, itself Eurovent certificated.
