VFD screw compressor for improved reliability and efficiency

The chiller portfolio includes screw compressor units equipped with variable frequency drives (VFD) designed and manufactured in-house and mounted onto the compressor for better reliability and efficiency. Thanks to VFD, precise modulation of cooling loads is allowed, with capacities up to 2.150 kW and scroll compressor chillers with capacities up to 1.344 kW.

Despite their large cooling capacities, the Daikin products are compact, which allows them to be fitted in restricted areas. This is specifically true for free cooling units with a configuration that does not exceed the unit footprint.

Daikin offers different types of free cooling, including glycol free systems. Dedicated data center configuration includes an integrated active harmonic filter, directly into the unit’s electrical panel to keep compactness.

  • VFD screw compressor for improved reliability and efficiency
  • Max. leaving water temperature: +30 °C
  • Min. ambient temperature: –30 °C

Our chillers’ heart

Daikin offers technology that is designed to be extremely reliable and durable, even in harsh environments. That is the case of the VFD screw compressor by Daikin, designed and manufactured in-house and mounted onto the compressor for better reliability and efficiency. It differentiates from other screw compressors for providing greater energy efficiency thanks to the optimised screw design and the integration of a specifically designed VFD.

This integration allows the compressor to perfectly match the different load requirements of the data center, through the capacity control of the compressor, resulting in outstanding part load efficiency, and thereby low PUE and low operating costs. On top of this, VFD and the integrated active low harmonics filter are both refrigerant cooled, further enhancing reliability, especially for those applications in extreme ambient conditions, where traditional air-cooled VFD would not be the best option
