Thermal Care's Portable Accuchiller Family

EQ (1 to 3 ton), NQ (4 to 40 tons), NQV (5 to 20 tons)

Providing a suite of efficient, reliable, and high-quality industrial packaged chillers.  The Accuchiller combines a refrigeration chiller and pumping system in a portable industrial-grade cabinet.

EQ Series Portable Chillers feature a compact footprint with an easily accessible interior and a microprocessor that provides precise temperature control and extensive diagnostics.  Air-cooled, water-cooled and remote condenser models are packed with many standard innovative features that improve chiller performance and reliability.

NQ Series Portable Chillers use components such as R410A refrigerant, scroll compressors, micro-channel condensers, low noise fans, stainless steel brazed plate evaporators, and sophisticated controls provide the best available technologies for the ultimate performance and reliability in a chiller package.

NQV Variable Speed Chillers have the same great features as the NQ Series, but with the addition of an optional variable speed compressor for significant energy savings.  Available on 5, 10, 15, and 20 ton NQ Series.  This conventional portable chiller uses a compressor running at a continuous speed, also known as a fixed speed compressor. Regardless of the requirements placed on it by the process load, the compressor speed remains at 100%. Fixed speed chillers employ a “hot gas bypass” to maintain the demand on the compressor to avoid wide fluctuations in the coolant temperature delivered to the process for consistent output.

NQV Variable Speed Chillers with advanced PLCs are at the technological forefront of the process cooling industry. The controller constantly monitors the heat load and adjusts the compressor speed for peak efficiency and temperature control and eliminates the need for hot gas bypass. By automatically adjusting the compressor speed, the chiller works only as hard as necessary to provide optimum performance with significantly reduced power use. Studies have shown that a 20% reduction in motor speed can lead to a 51% energy savings.
