Better chillers - from the inside out
The constant innovation in chiller design is driven by new demands for energy efficiency, local regulations and standards such as LEED, combined with requirements for new, low GWP refrigerants.
Increasing population, level of comfort and high penetration of IT technologies are putting strong pressure on electric grids and driving up overall energy consumption.
The next generations of chillers and HVAC for new builds as well as retrofits are designed to meet new standards. The revolution in the A/C market opens up new opportunities. To meet the needs of an increasingly complex HVAC market, our extensive range of components offer functional benefits and savings throughout the lifecycle of the chiller system from development and operating costs to servicing and maintenance.
Danfoss can offer different options for meeting these requirements in air-cooled and water-cooled chillers, using scroll, centrifugal or screw technology, with excellent technical support from our expert teams. Compressors can be configured as tandems, trios or using inverter or Turbocor technology. With our electric expansion valves, controllers and sensors we can supply you with the right solutions for a highly efficient air conditioning system that responds quickly to variable operating conditions ensuring constant user comfort.

Software
Coolselector®2 offers a scientific, time-saving way to select Danfoss manufactured components and ensuring optimal performance in refrigeration and air conditioning systems by providing accurate technical information. Coolselector®2 features unbiased calculations for the selection of refrigeration and air conditioning components based on the user’s input or based on standard operating conditions.
Hexact immediately identifies the right heat exchanger for your chiller, heat pump or other application. The heat exchanger design software covers both innovative MPHE and traditional BPHE types of brazed heat exchangers. It is easier than ever to find the right heat exchanger for your chiller, heat pump or other application.
The Danfoss ChillerROI app simplifies the decision-making process by allowing you to estimate the return on investment (ROI) using a few pieces of basic information. Simply enter the parameters into the app, and you’ll get a side-by-side comparison that displays the expected long- and short-term costs. Then, you can choose the best chiller for the situation.
