The <strong>TrilliumSeries</strong> Condenser<br />
The <strong>TrilliumSeries</strong> Condenser uses a patented Dry-Coil Adiabatic Design that saves<br />
energy, reduces refrigerant charge, and lowers operating costs. With the use of proprietary<br />
logic and sophisticated controls, the On-Demand Adiabatic Pre-Cooler uses water only<br />
on the hottest days to maintain condensing temperatures that typical air cooled technology<br />
can’t achieve.<br />

Modes of Operation<br />
››<br />
Dry Mode<br />
The ambient air at the dry bulb temperature passes through<br />
the pads and then over the microchannels. The ambient air<br />
condenses the refrigerant in the microchannel coils which is<br />
then returned to the evaporators.<br />

On days when the load is high and the ambient air<br />
temperature is high the unit will run in On-Demand<br />
Adiabatic Pre-Cooler Mode. Water is evenly sprayed over<br />
highly efficient cooling pads. As the air passes through<br />
the pads, water is evaporated in to the air, and the air is<br />
humidified, cooling temperatures down to 2-3 ºF above<br />
wet-bulb temperature. Such substantial depression of the dry<br />
bulb temperature results in a major increase in dry cooling<br />
capacity.<br />

The cooler air passes over the microchannel and condenses<br />
the refrigerant in the microchannel which is then returned to<br />
the compressor. In the sump there is an industrial duty pump<br />
that recirculates the water. The EcoFlex Controls determine<br />
when the water is purged from the sump. Part of the<br />
distributed water is evaporated, while the excess water assists<br />
in rinsing the pad to keep it free from debris and minerals that<br />
would otherwise stay behind on the pad after evaporation.<br />

Rebate Map<br />
Potential rebates are available for decreased energy use. These opportunities are highlighted<br />
in blue on the map above. As illustrated, a majority of states offer utility incentives and rebates<br />
which further decrease the initial investment of the <strong>TrilliumSeries</strong> Condenser.<br />
There are various types of rebates available for energy savings and are dependent on utility regulations.<br />
