Project Overview
R22 System Replacement for Iconic Biscuit Manufacturer
Project Overview
- Replacement of the ageing synthetic refrigerant chillers utilised across the site that serve factory and administration process cooling and air conditioning loads
Client Objective
- Remove ageing plant, R22 and other synthetic refrigerants from the site
- Increase overall cooling capacity to meet current and future growth
- Utilise natural refrigerants to meet all cooling loads
- Achieve high levels of system efficiency without impacting operational reliability
- Ensure the safety of site and maintenance staff at all times
- Deliver 30 year plant life expectancy
Key Points
- A new central plantroom constructed to meet the full site cooling requirements
- 8,000 kW of refrigeration across 4 separate systems connected to a common chilled water and common glycol reticulation system
- Ammonia refrigerant limited to the plant area with chilled glycol / water reticulated to all cooling loads throughout the facility
- The refrigeration plant and components designed to FM Global requirements
Outcomes
- Works completed without impact on Arnott’s business operations
- Completed well ahead of project time line
- System fully operational and servicing all loads
- Synthetic refrigerant plant decommissioned and removed from site
