Enclosure
The stylish and practical R Series structural enclosure is robustly constructed with a rigid frame, powder-coated galvanised aluminium panels and heavy-duty castors. It is divided into two sections to ensure optimum airflow through the condenser. The R Series enclosure is designed for indoor or outdoor installation.
Condensers
Aqua Chiller uses a custom-designed and manufactured condenser in the R Series of chillers. The enclosure’s split design offers high efficiency by ensuring optimum airflow through the condenser. The R series uses an advanced hydrophilic coating on the condenser and has the option of e-coating for extreme environments. Remote condenser options are available.
Smart PCB Controller
The advanced PCB controller is standard with all R Series chillers. It allows benefits such as multi-chiller control allowing redundancy, remote start/stop, performance monitoring, BMS connectivity, and a wide array of parameter control settings.
Chilled Water Circuit
R Series chillers are equipped as standard with an internal buffer tank. Internal buffer tanks ensure that temperature remains consistent under varying loads.

Compressors
R Series chillers compressors bring you long-lasting reliability and durability with exceptionally high standards of quality. R Series chillers use world-leading compressor brands such as Emerson and Danfoss.
Pumps
A range of pump options is available for the R Series chiller. All of which are sourced from highly reputable and market-leading manufacturers. R Series chillers can optionally be used with an external pump if required.
