DOMETIC VARC

VARIABLE CAPACITY CHILLER FROM 12000 BTU/H TO 72000 BTU/H

The Dometic VARC 48 uses the advanced technology of an Electronic Expansion Valve (EEV). This provides more precise control of superheat across a broad range of conditions with no erratic swings as the valve reacts to changes in temperature and pressure. Using an advanced algorithm, superior heat control is maintained over extreme operating conditions.

BALANCED PERFORMANCE

Maximize chiller efficiency and reduce electrical load fluctuations with Dometic’s innovative Variable Capacity Chiller (VARC). At full speed, the VARC provides cooling or heating at maximum capacity, but also boasts the ability to modulate speed to precisely match demand. Other chillers use a basic all-on or all-off cycle of operation, causing tremendous electrical load changes. Whereas the VARC uses a precision PID (proportional integral derivative) loop control algorithm that modulates the compressor speed and balances chiller output with the required load. The VARC smooth operation eliminates large swings in electrical demand on the generator. Such efficient operation keeps noise levels and energy costs to a minimum! It’s easy to install thanks to flexible plumbing configurations and the compact footprint saves valuable space. Users can conveniently choose from three amp limits: Economy, Standard, or Boost.

SUPER-EFFICIENCY

Maximize chiller efficiency and reduce electrical load fluctuations with Dometic’s innovative Variable Capacity Chiller (VARC48 208-230 V/50 or 60Hz). At full speed, the VARC48 provides a nominal 4 tons of cooling or heating. It also has the ability to modulate its speed all the way down to 1 ton in order to precisely match demand. Other chillers use a basic all-on or all-off method for water-loop temperature control, continuously starting and stopping which greatly changes the load on the generator. By precisely balancing output to load, the swing in loop water temperature is minimized as well as swings in demand for power from the generator. The VARC48 uses a precision PID (proportional integral derivative) loop control algorithm that modulates the compressor speed and balances chiller output with the required load. The innovative design of plumbing connections improves ease of installation and maintenance. An optional high-resolution color touchscreen provides a dynamic interface with improved system metrics and control.
