Air conditioning system requalification

Silence, comfort and sustainability for the BPER Banca headquarters in Modena

The building and the challenge

BEST WAY, Business Equity Sustainability Trust, this is BPER Banca's slogan.
For the redevelopment of the air conditioning system, the owner therefore wanted a system that would guarantee comfort for customers and employees, savings on operating costs and of course environmental sustainability.
The other aspect that had to be taken into consideration when choosing the new air conditioning system was the silence as the building is located in the historic center.
 

The solution and the results

The existing system was replaced by 2 high efficiency liquid chillers of the SPINchiller4 series (WSAT YSC4 175.5) with ecological R32 refrigerant equipped with multiscroll compressors to adapt the power supplied to the real energy needs required by the system.
The choice of installing two units, connected in parallel and with master / slave regulation, compared to the installation of a single refrigeration unit, allowed to increase the overall efficiency of the system and the reliability.

Even the very stringent requirements of silence have been met, configuring the units in the super-silenced version.
The adoption of a shell and tube evaporator also makes maintenance easier.
