From Heat to Cool: Hot Water & CHP VAM Chillers in India
Learn about Direct Fired Chiller | See VAM Product Page | CCHP Systems | Pump Solutions Introduction:
India’s industries are adopting energy - efficient and sustainable cooling solutions.Traditional electric systems are costly and emission - intensive.Hot Water and Combined Heat & Power(CHP) VAM chillers are changing this by turning waste heat into valuable cooling and power.
- Hot Water VAMs: Use hot water from boilers or industrial processes to provide cooling without heavy electricity use.
- CHP VAMs: Generate electricity while using waste heat to run VAM chillers, delivering cooling, heating, and power in one system.
- Energy Savings – Leverages waste heat to reduce electricity use.
- Eco - Friendly – Uses natural refrigerants, lowers CO₂.
- Cost - Effective & Low Maintenance – Fewer moving parts, longer lifespan.
Conclusion:
By converting heat into useful energy, these systems are helping Indian industries save costs, reduce emissions, and operate greener.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Vapour Absorption Chiller?
It's a thermally-driven cooling system that uses water/LiBr solution and heat (from steam, hot water, exhaust, or gas) instead of electricity to produce chilled water, drastically reducing energy costs.
Can BROAD chillers run on waste heat?
Yes, our absorption chillers can capture waste heat from industrial processes, generator exhaust, or boiler steam to provide free cooling, resulting in significant OPEX savings.
Do you provide after-sales service in India?
Absolutely. BROAD India provides comprehensive design consultation, commissioning, operator training, and 24/7 after-sales support with remote monitoring capabilities.
