Carrier 30CF chiller targets data centres

USA: Carrier has introduced the AquaEdge 30CF air-cooled centrifugal chiller, expanding the company’s portfolio of integrated thermal management solutions for the data centre market.

According to Carrier the 30CF is designed to address the limitations of traditional air-cooled designs, supporting operation from -20°F (-29ºC) to 140°F (60ºC), and helping maintain cooling continuity during extreme heat, grid events and across diverse site conditions. 

In the event of a power interruption, the chiller can restore 100% cooling capacity in under three minutes, providing an added layer of protection for mission-critical operations. 

The chiller can deliver more than 3MW of cooling, depending on ambient conditions.

The AquaEdge 30CF is built on Carrier’s proprietary two-stage, back-to-back centrifugal compressor with magnetic bearing technology, the same oil-free architecture used in the AquaEdge 19MV water-cooled centrifugal chiller.
