Doha: LG along with its distributor in Qatar, Jumbo Electromech recently held a technical seminar to highlight the latest development in chillers.
The seminar held at the Oryx Rotana Hotel was attended by consultants, contractors, MEP specialists, architects, ministry of interior and supreme council of delivery & legacy staff amongst others.
It broadly discussed the developments in chillers, mainly the inverter scroll chillers, absorption chiller and oil-free chiller. Representatives from LG’s commercial air condition team were present to answer questions and concerns that consultants had.
Inverter Scroll Chillers: Designed to save users money, space and time all while protecting the environment, the LG Air Cooled Inverter Scroll Chiller is an excellent example of a modern solution that manages to improve eco-friendliness and boost comfort while also cutting down on energy expenses.
The LG Inverter Scroll Chiller employs an advanced inverter compressor that allows it to function efficiently at a range of capacities. This stands in stark contrast to competing chillers that are only capable of operating at a constant speed. By constantly turning on and off in order to provide adequate climate control, these solutions waste valuable energy.
However, the Inverter Scroll Chiller functions at a range of frequencies, allowing output to remain closely aligned to the load. This increases efficiency and cuts energy costs. Moreover, LG’s patented HiPOR technology significantly improves the efficiency of all LG Inverter Scroll Compressors.
In conventional solutions, oil returns through the refrigerant suction pipe, meaning that refrigerant and oil are forced to share limited pipe space which leads to energy loss. However, LG’s patented HiPOR™ technology prevents refrigerant loss in the suction pipe by returning oil directly into the compressor.
Absorption Chiller: The advanced absorption chillers pioneered by LG Electronics are an excellent example of how recent innovations are opening up new frontiers in recycling.
By repurposing heat and energy, these devices have the potential to offer profound benefits to both users (in the form of lower electricity bills) and the environment (by decreasing power consumption).
LG’s absorption chillers offer the best solution to the dilemma presented by increased demand for energy at a time when growing environmental consciousness is causing many to look for ways to scale down consumption.
The LG Hybrid Absorption Chiller uses heat sources such as steam, hot water and exhaust gas to increase the overall energy efficiency of the CCHP (Combined Cooling, Heating, and Power) system.
It also comes equipped with emergency backup direct gas heating that keeps the solution running in the event that CHP operation is interrupted. Ideal for users looking to reduce electric consumption via renewable energy sources, the Hybrid Absorption Chiller can even be powered by solar cells on sunny days and direct gas firing when weather turns cloudy.
Oil-Free Chillers: LG developed its unique LeviTech™ chiller technology by starting with the smallest individual components and treating each constituent part as the centerpiece of the entire project. This unrivaled attention to detail makes LeviTech™ an oil-free chiller technology like nothing that has come before.
LG manufactures both magnetic-bearing and air-bearing centrifugal chillers, the first in the world to produce the latter.
