Thermo Electron Introduces Innovative Recirculating Chiller Platform
Newington, NH - April 10, 2006 - Thermo Electron Corporation, an industry leading producer of analytical and process instrumentation, announced today the introduction of its new NESLAB ThermaFlex(TM) recirculating chiller platform. This innovative platform provides the latest in temperature control technology, delivering high reliability, optimal performance and ease of maintenance. The platform was developed for the most demanding cooling applications, including analytical, printing, packaging, laser, university and semiconductor markets.
The ThermaFlex recirculating platform is unique to the industry most notably because of its reliability and low maintenance needs. Unlike most chillers that must be taken off-line for up to an hour during scheduled maintenance, this innovative platform has air and fluid filters that can be changed while the unit is operating, resulting in zero downtime.
"With so many choices on the market today, Thermo Electron designed ThermaFlex chillers with the customer in mind, involving them throughout the development process," noted Todd Milne, product manager for Thermo Electron. "We made sure the platform could be configured with flexible options so customers will get the best chiller for their application. We also made it extremely easy to use and maintain. Customers want a chiller that serves its purpose without interruption. The ThermaFlex platform does just that."
A new patented recirculation system includes an integrated funnel, full flow filtration, and visual fluid level indication, along with a number of configurable options that can be added based on the application's requirements. This results in unparalleled simplicity during start-up and the desired flexibility that customers require.
Specific benefits of the ThermaFlex platform include:
Reliability
o A robust refrigeration system with extended life components allows for years of continuous operation
o An intuitive controller allows customer-defined alarms to be set for various parameters, alerting users of potential problems
o An integrated full flow filter keeps the process fluid clean to minimize wear on mechanical parts, lowering lifetime maintenance costs
o A recirculation system designed with highly reliable plumbing connections
Ease of use
o A quick-start guide enables seamless start-up in just a few short minutes
o An intuitive interface allows for ease of operation
o Snap in-and-out air and fluid filters allow for quick and simple maintenance
Performance
o Up to 10 percent greater cooling capacity
o A breadth of available options results in optimized chiller performance based on the application's requirements
o Lower noise level improves customer's working environment
o Environmentally friendly HFC refrigerant
