A steam-driven absorption chiller uses low to medium pressure steam energy to deliver efficient cooling, making it ideal for utilising waste heat in industrial and commercial applications. This technology reduces electricity usage and lowers emissions and offers a sustainable solution for energy-efficient cooling.

Steam-driven absorption chillers provide energy-efficient, eco-friendly cooling by utilising waste steam, reducing electricity consumption and emissions. Their robust, low-maintenance design and advanced controls ensure reliable, quiet operation with minimal vibration. Using water-lithium bromide solution as natural refrigerant-absorbent pair, they maximise energy recovery and support sustainability goals. Ideal for industries such as chemicals, pharmaceuticals and textiles, these chillers are perfect for facilities with available steam or waste heat. They help lower operational costs, improve efficiency and minimise environmental impact.
