TRENT Year-Round AC Condensing Unit
The Trent Year-Round AC unit is built on the same platform as the chiller and is designed to provide cooling year round. Not just the summer season.
The head pressure is modulated to increase the energy efficiency and also increase the life of the compressor by operating it a more moderate operating range. At higher ambient temperatures the fan will speed up thereby reducing the discharge pressure. In shoulder seasons the fan will slow down to maintain a moderate discharge pressure. This will allow the compressor too run more efficiently. In addition, it will reduce the fan motor power requirement. As well as reduce substantially any fan noise.
When colder ambient conditions, as well as winter, arrive the fan will shut off and the head pressure control will be controlled with a valve. This way the discharge pressure will be maintained high enough to allow the compressor to run properly, even on the coldest days. The Trent Year-Round AC unit is also equipped with a receiver, suction accumulator and crank case heater to allow for low temp operation.
