  • SAVINGS: Owing the energy savings of the OPTIFLUX exchanger your chiller is quickly amortized.
  • A MACHINE THAT PAYS FOR ITSELF: Because of the energy saved, you recoup the cost of your machine quickly.
  • PROTECTING THE ENVIRONMENT: Owing to the use of environmentally friendly refrigerant, reduced electricity consumption and a closed water circuit.
  • ONLY THE BEST COMPONENTS SELECTED: CAREL microprocessor, Copeland SCROLL™ compressor.
  • MANUFACTURING QUALITY: CTA’s manufacturing process meets strict ISO 9001 certified specifications.
  • THE SOLUTION YOU CAN TRUST: We are committed to providing you with the best technical expertise from the moment you request information until your chiller is commissioned.

HELP TO PROTECT THE ENVIRONMENT

CTA is committed to caring for the environment.
IPM & IP comply with current regulations by using AN ENVIRONMENTALLY-FRIENDLY REFRIGERANT, R410A.
But IPM & IP go BEYOND LEGAL REQUIREMENTS:

  • the HYDRAULIC CIRCUIT IS CLOSED and therefore does not involve pumping or water discharge so there is NO RISK OF LEGIONELLOSIS.
  • the quality of the cooler can be attributed to OPTIMIZATION OF THE EXCHANGER combined with components selected for their ENERGY EFFICIENCY resulting in LOWER ELECTRICITY CONSUMPTION.

EASY TO INSTALL AND START-UP

Fully packaged in a single compact housing and designed with a condenser located on one side only, the IPM & IP chillers adapt to any installation components, both inside and outside. With its built-in hydraulic component, IPM & IP are ready to use. A kit is available to facilitate filling the unit with water.
TOTAL ACCESSIBILITY AT THE FRONT: All the panels can be removed to facilitate maintenance.
DOES NOT REQUIRE A LOT OF STORAGE SPACE: IPM & IP were designed to fit into even the smallest spaces.

IPM & IP: The Choice of the Best Components

  • EXCHANGER: The OPTIFLUX exchanger, patented by CTA group, developed in partnership with Alfa Laval, the world leader in exchangers. The tube in flexible shell heat exchanger is integral to the buffer vessel and protects against damage which can occur with improper setup or maintenance.
  • BODY: It is made up of a frame in aluminum sections and panels in PVC plastic coated galvanized steel all mounted on a steel frame, epoxy paint. Option: aluminum or stainless steel panels.
  • FAN WITH STREAMLINED BLADES AND AIR-COOLED CONDENSER: Units are fitted with an axial cooling fan with balanced aluminum blades and an air-cooled condenser in copper pipes and aluminum vanes. This feature reduces noise levels and improves ventilation air flow.
  • SCROLL COMPRESSOR: IP features Copeland Scroll compressors as standard on models IP15 to 1502US. Scrolls minimize power consumption, noise, vibration and moving parts while maximizing reliability and resistance to liquid refrigerant returns.
  • HYDRAULIC KIT: It is made up of a generously sized storage tank, avoiding the risk of compressor short cycles, and a centrifugal pump as standard on all sizes, with a pressure gauge and pressure differential cut-out on the water circuit. An adjustable by-pass valve allows the pressure of the water supply flowing out of the unit to be regulated.
  • CAREL REGULATION: Operation is controlled by miroprocessor according to the starting temperature of the water, monitored by sensors. The digital interface continuously indicates the water outlet temperature. It also displays the operating instructions and the various adjustment parameters.
  • ACCESSORIES:
    • Rubber anti-vibration mountings (supplied loose)
    • Modulating fan speed condensing control
    • Fan speed control
    • Crankcase heater
    • Remote control
    • Sequence phase relay
    • Refrigerant gauges (standard on models IP251US and above)
    • Electromechanical flow switch
  • REAR VENTILATION GRILLE
