to 2.88 million BTU/h. These chillers typically have shell-and-tube heat exchangers and accessible semi-hermetic compressors which can be opened for
maintenance to ensure peak performance throughout the life of the system.

Each compressor is driven by a frequency inverter which controls the starting electrical current peak and the frequency/speed range while running. The

 Chilled Water Air Conditioning

A Complete Chilled Water Air Conditioning System From One Source

From sophisticated electronic controls to hand-made air grilles with custom wood finishes, Dometic Marine can design and build a complete chilled water
air conditioning system for your superyacht. Our engineering team is available to review the plans for your vessel, calculate all load requirements, and
design the system best suited to your needs.

At the heart of a chilled water air conditioning system is the chiller itself. All Dometic Marine chillers — manufactured by Condaria, Cruisair, or Marine
Air — are expertly constructed with components and marine-grade materials of the highest possible quality. Multi-stage chillers for high capacities can
be custom engineered to satisfy the most demanding cooling and heating requirements, and designed to fit unique installation spaces.

Air handlers by Condaria, Cruisair, and Marine Air are designed to perform quietly and efficiently while
pilot house
fitting virtually any installation space, including overhead compartments and walls. Luxury options such as
"WhisperCool" DC blowers, fresh air make-up, and electric heat are available on most models, as well as
custom configurations.

Advanced electronics provide precise control and monitoring of the chiller and air handlers.
Optional CAN bus capability makes one-touch control possible over the ship-wide network
and via Modbus/TCP Ethernet protocol.
