METHOD OF SELECTION
If the duty requires a 10ºF range on both the evaporator and condenser, see “Ratings”.
For water ranges other than 10ºF, use the following procedure.
1. Determine capacity required from the following formula.
GPM x Chilled Water Range (ºF)
2. After applying any fouling factor corrections, the actual condenser heat rejection
may be determined as follows:
= (Tons x 12) = (kW x 3.415)
3. Determine condensing water requirements for water cooled models as follows:
Selection Data (Cont'd)
Heat Rejection (MBH) x 1000
