Econdition Kappa Sky

Air-cooled water chiller Kappa Sky

Cooling capacity from 260 ÷ 1360 kW

The new generation of air-cooled chillers KAPPA SKY with speed-controlled screw compressors and variable compression ratio (Vi). The KAPPA SKY series is available in 4 performance levels (Xi, Si and Xh, Sh) and 3 sound emission levels (basic and versions LN and SLN). The Xi and Xh units are designed to provide the maximum seasonal efficiency. The Si and Sh models ensure optimal efficiency and great compactness. They are retrofit solutions with significant specifications regarding the transport and installation of the units.

The very large performance range and the extensive range of accessories mean that each device can be tailored to the respective customer needs.

High performance solutions

High efficiency in the partial load range

Depending on the requirements, a combination of standard and speed-controlled screw compressors or exclusively speed-controlled screw compressors are installed in the various model versions. This means that partial load values ​​(SEER) of up to 4.94 can be achieved when cooling.

Advantage of variable Vi sliders, part load efficiencies (SEER)

With the screw compressors used, the internal compression ratio (Vi) is adjusted via a variable control for optimal full and partial load operation. This increases the seasonal efficiency by up to 25% in the part-load operation that occurs most frequently throughout the year.

Microchannel condenser

The use of aluminum microchannel heat exchangers reduces the overall weight, space requirements and, most significantly, the refrigerant charge of the unit.

Intelligent control

Blue Think® is the latest "Plug & Play" controller from BlueBox. The in-house “Systems & Control Team" developed the complete function and logic. A big advantage of the complete development of the software by BlueBox itself is the fast reaction to the needs of the market. In addition: The development of functions for system optimization, system integration and monitoring.
