0-1. Product explanation
(1) Excellent for peak shaving during high electrical demand periods.
(2) esigned to provide chilled water from waste heat sources, generated from industrial
processes and cogeneration systems.
(3) Allows diversification of critical cooling requirements. Critical cooling loads are met
with minimal electrical power input with a hot water-fired chiller.
(4) Allows for smaller generator set installation be utilized since the electrical load
associated with an absorption chiller is minimal when compared to an electric chiller.
(5) Ozone safe, CFC free. Cooling requirements are met without chlorine based
refrigerants.
(6) Reduces affectors to global warming. Minimizes global impact by greatly reducing
electricity consumption and eliminating the use of greenhouse gases.
(7) Environment: Molybdate solution inhibitor is used with no impact on environment.
(8) Low noise and vibration. The absorption chiller doses not utilize a large
motor-compressor, and this leads to quiet, trouble-free operation.
(9) Small footprint saves facility space.
0-2. Use of product
Absorption Chiller is air conditioning equipment achieving comfortable space, energy
saving, and economic efficiency.
It has been used in office buildings, hotels, department stores, hospitals, schools,
convention centers, government building, etc.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
1-1-3.Operating precautions
① Keep the purge va ve shut tight y to prevent air from eaking into the Chi er, which may
cause the fai ure of the Chi er.
② Keep to turn on the power supp y to the contro pane without maintenance service.
③ During the di ution cyc e operation of the Chi er as we , the chi ed water pump (both the
primary side and the secondary side) and air hand ing unit must be operated for the necessary
time. The Chi er has a itt e coo ing capacity even if it is in the di ution cyc e operation.
Do not stop the air hand ing unit before the necessary time to prevent possib e subcoo ing.
④ Do not perform an insu ation test on the contro circuits of the e ectric contro er.
⑤ Use Carries recommended inter ock system for stop/start of the auxi iary equipment.
The inter ock system automatica y stops/starts chi ed water pump and coo ing water pump.
