York extends Sonata chiller range

York Sonata
York has enhanced its Sonata range in response to customers’ requests for quieter chiller operation across a wider range of cooling capacities.
York is extending its energy-efficient range of YAES Sonata air-cooled chillers to cooling capacities of over 1300 kW at typical UK conditions. Further acoustic enhancements have reduced sound pressure levels to as low as 51.4 dB(A) at low fan speed and 10 m distance. The range starts at 314 kW of cooling. Units providing up to 914 kW of cooling are now being introduced, with higher-capacity units during the summer.
