Case Studies
Processed Chilled Fluid Case Study
Challenge: A customer within the industrial sector presented Climate Technologies with a specific engineering challenge: the requirement for an air-cooled chiller to provide process chilled fluid. This system needed to adhere to ASHRAE (American Society of Heating and Air-Conditioning Engineers) A1 class refrigerant requirements, which specify low toxicity and non-flammability. A1 fluids are generally recognized
Low Temperature Test Cell Chamber Case Study
Challenge An automotive industry client faced a specific engineering challenge: the need for precisely controlled low-temperature test cell chambers for internal gear testing. The client requested a mechanical engineered package for four test cell chambers with demanding performance criteria. Specifically, each chamber needed to achieve a temperature range of –40F to 120F within a four-hour
Epsilon Packaged Mechanical Plant for Holy Cross Hospital
The Challenge Hospitals are heavily regulated in terms of their size, total number of beds, the services they can provide, and fees they can charge. Given these regulations, it is a challenge to maximize the value of the facility. Hospital facilities are built to last a long time and are among the most energy intensive
GM T1 Project – Chilled Water Plants
When General Motors and their contractor Barton Malow needed three 7,500 Ton Chilled Water Plants for expansions at the GM plants in Fort Wayne, IN, Arlington, TX, and Flint, MI, they turned to Climate Technologies and Epsilon to design and fabricate modular central utility chilled water plants. The chilled water plant shown (GM Fort Wayne) was
AVL America, GM Powertrain Prove Out Center
Climate Technologies has delivered a 650 horsepower -40F M&M Refrigeration chiller and low temperature secondary fluid pumping package to AVL America. The chiller will provide the low temperature fluid for prove out testing of the components for General Motors new state of the art powertrain testing facility to be built in Pontiac, MI.
