Introduction
The DeltaChill Free Cool chiller has been designed to provide the cooling load required whilst optimising energy
efciency at all times and as such will take advantage of free cooling whenever available. If the free cooling available
cannot satisfy the required full cooling load, direct expansion cooling is used to supplement the output.

Free Cooling Operation
In high ambients where free cooling is not available the fan
speed modulates in the conventional manner to maintain a
constant head pressure. Free cooling is initiated wherever the
outdoor ambient is 2°C less than the return water temperature.
The condensing temperature is constantly monitored and
intelligently kept within the compressor envelope to allow the
fans to run as fast as possible and therefore achieve the most
free-cooling without having a negative impact on compressor
integrity.
In ambients where the free cooling coil is capable of
satisfying the full cooling demand, the condenser fans are
modulated to provide the desired duty. The condenser fans

During periods where the condenser fan speed has been
reduced to a minimum, the supply water temperature will then be controlled by the 3 way valve.
