Sterling LHE High Efficiency Central Chillers
Sterling High Efficiency Central Chillers
Sterling LHE high efficiency central chillers are remarkably energy efficient and can save processors up to 60% in electrical costs. The system continuously measures ambient and process conditions and will adjust to operate in the most efficient manner. Designed with electrical, mechanical and control redundancy, downtime is virtually eliminated.
The LHE high efficiency central chiller is available in single circuits from 20 to 60 tons and is designed with modularity in mind. Users can purchase a system to meet their current process cooling needs. Expansion is made easy by plugging similar capacity units in parallel for up to 600 tons of cooling. The chillers control off the temperature of the tank and can maintain between 20°F to 80°F (-7°C to 26.6°C).

Sterling LHE High Efficiency Central Chillers Features
Remote Air & Water Cooled
- Intuitive 10” Touch Screen Control – Monitor one to ten paralleled units with a large, high resolution color touch screen.
- Simple Strainer Maintenance – Cleaning is easy with the Stainless Steel Brazed Plate Evaporator. Incorporated TS Tech™ tool-less technology allows for quick access with less effort. The large surface area on the strainer also increases the time between required cleanings.
- More Accurate Temperature Control Chilling system operates based on tank temperature instead of unit leaving fluid temperature.
- Built in Auto-Redundancy & Controls Zones communicate between one another to maintain tank temperatures via Ethernet connectivity.
- Increased Energy Efficiency – Tandem Scroll Compressors with Staging Capability are managed by proprietary algorithms.
- Replaceable Filter Core – Easily replace and maintain filters without having to cut out old unit and braze in new.
- Welded Frame – Provides better structural integrity during transport & operation. The frame is powder coated for increased corrosion resistance.
Water Cooled
- Controlled to Optimize Performance The electronic water regulating valve automatically adjusts to control head pressure.
- Resistant to Corrosion Shell & Tube Condenser designed to be more resilient to clogging and easier to clean.
- Increased Stability Condenser is closer to the ground to reduce operational vibration.
Remote Air-Cooled
- Higher Performance Motors The electronically commutated (EC) brush-less motor increases reliability, controllability and energy savings.
- Robust Design Tube & Fin Condensers have a higher resistance to corrosion while providing more efficiency.
