    Aquilon DS

    A natural-based condensing unit for smaller industrial operations

    Ideal for low- and medium-temperature rooms and process chilling, this CO2 condensing unit integrates system control and a gas cooler. It’s a standout alternative for synthetic refrigerant split systems, all while providing excellent heat recovery.

    • The versatile Aquilon DS offers the option for dual temperature (medium and low temp) outputs.
    • Energy efficiency is at the core of the Aquilon DS proven by the ability to re-use waste heat for hot gas defrost rather than relying on electric defrost
    • This condensing unit uses an integrated adiabatic gas cooler that reduces water usage up to 90%

      Where sustainability meets savings

      Decarbonization is important, but so is minimizing water usage and the high cost of electrical power. The Aquilon DS is a transcritical CO2 condensing unit focused on sustainability and savings for smaller industrial applications. It can reduce water usage by 90% (compared to alternate gas coolers) and achieve a combined COP of 7 or greater when wholistically deployed.
      Where sustainability meets savings

      Features

      • Stainless steel piping construction
      • Transcritical booster system with multiple semi-hermetic reciprocating compressors in each suction group
      • High-efficiency oil management system with coalescing separator
      • Integrated dry or adiabatic gas cooler with EC fan
      • Optional heat recovery circuit available
      • Direct expansion CO2 liquid feed with electronic control valves
      • CO2 leak detection
      • Industrial welded frame design
      • High-pressure design eliminates a need for a back-up generator or separate small condensing unit for off-cycle, over-pressure protection
      • Variable-frequency drives on lead compressors
      • Integrated liquid subcooler
      • High standstill design pressure, including low temperature (LT) compressors
      • Air, electric or two-pipe hot gas defrost evaporator*
      • Microprocessor-based package and system control with multiple level password parameter protection and extended computer-based application interface
      • Compressor saturated suction temperatures from -40˚F to 40˚F**
