Features
Operates with a maximum energy savings of 57%※
These Orion chillers respond to work loads using the least amount of energy. (※)
- Compared with HB control models running at a 30% load
Highly Precise liquid temperature control possible.
The chiller senses the liquid temperature and adjusts the compressor speed accordingly, thus achieving liquid temperature precision control of ±0.5 to ±1.0 ℃. (Precision is subject to work loads. Please consult your dealer if high precision control is demanded)
Wide range of liquid temperature control.
Wide range of liquid temperature control.
Comes with built-in communications interface as standard equipment.
Allows temperature control via RS232C or RS422 interfaces.

- Operation when liquid temp is 20℃, ambient temp is 32℃, and cooling water temp 32℃. Cooling capacity is at least 95% of listed figures.
- Source voltage phase unbalance should be less ±3%.
- The figure noted is when the equipment is operating at the highest capacity of its normal operating range.
- Stable load indicates continued operation with maximum load fluctuations of ±10% of the current load. (However, this is excluding loads is in the range of 25 to 40%.) Setting can be changed by adjusting parameter F15. (Default setting is the high-precision setting)
- Please operate with a head of 50m or less.
- Operating noise levels are from a position of 1m in front of the unit and at a height of 1m.
- Unit comes with a built-in multi-purpose overload and short circuit protection earth leakage breaker.
- Please install the included strainer (40 mesh) to the liquid intake port.
- The recommended liquid (chilled water) that can be used is either clean water or a 30 to 40% industrial-use ethylene glycol solution. Alternatively, if deionized water is used, it should have an electrical conductivity of at least 1µS/cm.
- Heat output from the product (in kW) is about 1.3 times the cooling capacity. (Air Cooled only.)
- RKE18000A-VW model is a built to order item.
