Comprehensive Chilled Water Systems

Enhance building efficiency with Trane chilled water systems

Overview

State of the art chilled water system design.

An integrated approach to applied mechanical system design can help lower the power draw, allowing the entire system to operate more efficiently with less money and less energy. 

  1. Reduce Lifecycle Costs

    Chilled water systems leverage chiller efficiency, improved flow rate designs, and high-performance equipment selections to minimize lifecycle costs.

  2. Ultimate Flexibility & Reliability

    Building load changes are managed by pairing chillers with a wide range of airside equipment, using pre-engineered chiller plant control sequences that respond to fluctuations in cooling loads.

  3.  Sustained High Performance

    System design uses advanced components to deliver high performance over time by maintaining proper delta T and peak chilled water system efficiency.

FAQs

Your questions about comprehensive chilled water systems, answered.

Comprehensive chilled water systems are a high performance and reliable centralized cooling solution that circulates cold fluid through pipes, coils and valves to extract heat from the building.

A chilled water system cools water using a chiller, then pumps it through a network of pipes to absorb heat from the building via cooling coils. The coils use chilled water to cool the air, which is then distributed to maintain comfortable and consistent indoor temperatures.

Trane chilled water systems feature high efficiency chillers with various compressor options, hydronic accessories including pumps, coils, and valves, and advanced control systems. Additionally, these systems incorporate cooling towers, control sequences, and digital services for remote monitoring.
