BROAD Vapor Absorption Chillers (VAM, VAC) – Smart Non-Electric Cooling for a Greener Future
What Are BROAD Absorption Chillers?
BROAD makes special chillers called Vapor Absorption Machines (VAM) or Vapor Absorption Chillers (VAC). These are non-electric chillers that don’t use electricity like normal air conditioners. Instead, they use steam, hot water, exhaust gases, or even natural gas or diesel to make cool air.
This helps save electricity and reduce pollution. BROAD chillers are great for buildings, factories, hospitals, data centers, and more. Learn about Magnetic Bearing Chillers | See VAM Product Page | CCHP Systems | Pump Solutions
Types of BROAD Chillers
Steam Chiller or Steam Absorption Chiller – uses steam for cooling
Hot Water Chiller or Hot Water Absorption Chiller – uses hot water
Exhaust Chiller or Exhaust Absorption Chiller – uses exhaust heat
Direct Fired Vapor Absorption Chiller – runs on natural gas or diesel
These chillers don’t need electric compressors. That means they use less power and work well where electricity is expensive or not reliable.
How BROAD Chillers Help the Environment
They work using waste heat recovery systems
They help with decarbonisation by cutting down CO₂ emissions
They recover energy from flue gas
They are perfect for CCHP and CHP (Combined Cooling and Power or Combined Heat and Power) systems
This means they reduce pollution and help companies go green.
Save Energy and Money
Electricity costs are rising. BROAD chillers use heat sources like:
Leftover hot water or steam from factories
Exhaust gases from engines
Natural gas or diesel
This helps save a lot of money over time. Plus, these chillers need less maintenance and have a long life.
Perfect for Green Buildings and Smart Cities
Whether you're building a new smart office, running an industrial plant, or managing an eco-friendly hospital, BROAD’s vapor absorption chillers are a great choice. They:
