Free Cooling – maximum possible efficiency

The Free Cooling of the CyberCool 2 uses the outside temperature, which offers the greatest potential savings of all, especially in cold and temperate climates.

When outside temperatures are low, Free Cooling can completely replace energy-intensive compressor cooling. In temperate climates, the CyberCool 2 runs in energy-efficient Mixed mode for most of the year, i.e. with a mixture of Free Cooling and compressor cooling.

CyberCool 2 – Top of the class in energy:

Early switchover to Free Cooling
Maximum use of Free Cooling coils between compressor mode and Free Cooling
Coils designed to allow the maximum surface area

No efficiency without "Mix Mode Boost"

In moderate climate zones, chillers with Free Cooling run in Mixed mode most of the year. Therefore, the greatest potential savings, by some margin, can be achieved by optimizing Mixed mode.

In Mixed mode, the outstanding performance values of the CyberCool 2 have maximum impact: it efficiently utilizes the condensation pressure control in Mixed mode to cut the energy consumption of the compressors to a minimum.

Innovation: Unlike conventional water chiller solutions, with "Mix Mode Boost" the CyberCool 2 makes 100 % use of the surfaces of the DX coils without having to regulate the fan speed. This dramatically enhances energy efficiency and slashes operating costs.

Free Cooling

At low outside temperatures, the water is cooled solely with the aid of these temperatures. Energy consumption is reduced to an absolute minimum thanks to the maximized Free Cooling coils and early, infinite switchover points.

Compressor mode

The CyberCool 2 cuts operating costs to a minimum in every operating mode, even in relatively energy-intensive DX mode: in DX mode, the CyberCool 2 achieves the best efficiency values in mission-critical applications compared with competing systems – every time.

Adiabatic system for even more Free Cooling

Benefit from the effect of adiabatic evaporative cooling. The adiabatic system with wet pads extracts heat from the outside air and increases the cooling effect. This enables the chilled water circuit to be cooled much longer via the outside air, which significantly extends the Mixed and Free Cooling mode. The result is minimum compressor running time and a reduced condensation temperature – and therefore a minimization of the operating costs.

Benefits of the adiabatic system:

Saturation efficiency 89 %
Highly efficient distribution system
Reuse of water
No water droplet entrainment (aerosol)

Non-Glycol version: Free Cooling without glycol

There are some buildings where glycol cannot be used. Therefore, with the "Non-glycol² option" glycol is now only used in the Free Cooling circuit. This option provides the benefits of Free Cooling while refraining from the use of glycol in the building.

However, by separating the Free Cooling and chilled water circuits with an additional brazed plate heat exchanger, the switchover points to Free Cooling and Mixed mode do shift by a few degrees Celsius. To be energy-efficient, the chiller must run in Mixed and Free Cooling mode as early as possible.

This unique STULZ solution keeps efficiency losses to a minimum:

Brazed plate heat exchanger with minimized pressure drops
This permits the use of a "small" Free Cooling pump with low energy consumption (must run continuously in Mixed and Free Cooling mode)
High quality, meticulously selected components

Believing is one thing – knowing is another: On the debate around glycol-free CW systems with integrated Free Cooling

When it comes to CW systems for data center cooling, many air conditioning specialists believe that it makes operational and economic sense to do away with water-glycol refrigerant in the data center interior. But more detailed analysis suggests that this theory is the exception, not the rule.

The low-GWP version with R1234ze refrigerant

Units of the CyberCool 2 ze series are equipped with the refrigerant R1234ze. Due to its low global warming potential (GWP: 7), the refrigerant is particularly sustainable and classified according to the A2L class of hazardous substances. The refrigerant thus has low toxicity and low burning rate. In order to relieve operators of the underlying requirements (standard EN 378), the units are equipped with a special safety concept.

Noise-optimized version

Chilled water systems by STULZ: Powerful and quiet

Where there are people, noise emissions should always be kept to a minimum. This applies in commercial and industrial zones, and even more so in the vicinity of offices, hospitals and residential areas. The CyberCool 2 is equipped with components that lower noise emissions to a most impressive minimum.

Noise-optimized for all applications
There are many projects where the noise emissions of the chilled water systems have to be factored in. For installation near an office building or in a hospital, in particular, low noise values are essential. When designing the CyberCool 2 as a commercial water chiller, STULZ focused on optimizing noise without neglecting energy efficiency.

The CyberCool 2 is equipped with high-quality components that greatly minimize the noise level:

EC fans with a large surface area (Ø 910 mm) enable operation at reduced speed
The airflow properties ensure reduced air turbulence, resulting in low pressure drops and noise emissions
Sound-insulated compressor chamber
The fan diffuser attachment (optional) optimizes the airflow and therefore cuts electricity consumption by up to 20 % and noise by up to 5 dB(A)

The compressors, fans and pumps are the only noise sources with the CyberCool 2 units. Depending on operating conditions, the noise level of the chiller can be reduced by up to 10 dB. To do this, the maximum fan speed is restricted during operation. Furthermore, cooling capacity that is comparable with the standard version can be attained with the low-noise version due to the matching of condensers and fans.

Low-noise chillers for data centers: Peace and quiet for your cooling needs

For data centers close to residential areas, compliance with noise regulations is extremely important. Air conditioning systems can be problematic in this respect. Chillers with a cooling capacity of 500 kW, in particular, often generate a lot of noise during operation. Here, low-noise solutions from STULZ ensure the necessary noise reduction.

Option: Second power source for the greatest possible reliability

One of the key requirements for mission-critical and sensitive applications is uninterrupted cooling – in the event of a power outage, for example. To guarantee stable cooling capacity in spite of this, STULZ provides the option of an automatic transfer switch fitted directly in the switch gear cabinet. If the primary power supply fails, this is detected automatically and the system defaults to a second power source within a minimum of 180 ms.
