by utilizing a two-stage compressor system.

 

What is LG Centrifugal Chiller

LG Centrifugal Chiller shown with USPs: Refrigerant, Efficient Cooling, Reliable Operation, and Flexible Solution.

Centrifugal Chiller

The LG Centrifugal Chiller offers a cooling solution not only R-134a but also low GWP R-513A refrigerant​. With LG’s technologies such as the two-stage compressor and second Inlet Guide Vane (2nd IGV), it delivers both high efficiency and reliable performance.

Efficient Cooling with Two-stage Compressor

The optimized two-stage compression cycle of the Centrifugal Chiller delivers improved energy and operational efficiency compared to a one-stage compressor chiller.1)

Reliable Operation

LG Centrifugal Chiller features a 2nd Inlet Guide Vane(2nd IGV) in its compressor, designed to reduce surge and support consistent, reliable performance.

Low GWP R-513A Refrigerant

The LG Centrifugal Chiller uses R-513A refrigerant, which has a lower Global Warming Potential (GWP) of 573 compared to R-134a. It is also non-flammable and has lower toxicity.
