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.

Introduction:
Industries today are challenged to cut energy costs while reducing their environmental impact.Cooling systems, essential in manufacturing, food processing, pharmaceuticals, and more, consume huge amounts of electricity.Hot Water Vapour Absorption Machine(VAM) chillers provide a smart solution using waste heat or hot water to generate cooling, reducing electricity demand and carbon emissions.

How They Work:

Hot Water VAM chillers operate on the absorption refrigeration cycle.A natural refrigerant(water or ammonia) absorbs heat from the space or process.It is absorbed by a solution(like lithium bromide), then hot water drives the separation process.The refrigerant returns to repeat the cycle.No compressors.No high electricity use.Just efficient, eco - friendly cooling.

Key Benefits:

Energy Savings: Uses existing hot water or waste heat, cutting electricity bills.
Eco - Friendly: Natural refrigerants reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
Low Maintenance: Fewer moving parts, longer lifespan.
Versatile: Suitable for HVAC, industrial processes, and large-scale operations.

Real - World Impact:

Food and beverage plants report 60–70 % lower electricity consumption.Steel and chemical industries use waste heat to drive cooling, saving energy and reducing CO₂ emissions.

The Future of Industrial Cooling:

Hot Water VAM chillers can integrate with solar thermal, biomass boilers, and waste heat recovery, creating a smarter, greener industrial ecosystem.

Conclusion:
By turning waste heat into a resource, Hot Water VAM chillers help industries cool efficiently, save costs, and operate sustainably.
