Auxiliary Condenser

The Trane auxiliary condenser provides economical heat recovery for applications with small heating demand. It’s well-suited to preheat applications including domestic hot water, boiler makeup water and swimming pools.

The Trane auxiliary condenser option consists of a separate condenser connected in parallel with the standard condenser to provide simple heat recovery capability for applications where full heat recovery or high heating water temperatures are not required. Heat which normally would be rejected to the regular condenser water is picked up in the auxiliary condenser before the water enters the hot water heating system. Typical uses for this water include domestic water preheat, boiler makeup water preheat, and reheat air conditioning systems, as opposed to traditional heat recovery applications where higher temperature water is used to satisfy a building heating load, provide full heat input for domestic hot water, or provide the typically larger flow rates of hot water for process applications.

The auxiliary condenser not only captures energy otherwise lost, it also increases chiller efficiency.

Auxiliary condensers are available in two sizes: standard and large. Because the auxiliary condenser is a separate condenser, there is no cross contamination between the cooling tower water and the heat recovery water circuits.

No temperature controls are required. Auxiliary condensers are factory mounted and tested.

Benefits

Simplicity

No temperature controls are required. Auxiliary condensers are factory- mounted and tested.

Flexibility

Two auxiliary condenser sizes are available — standard and large. Either auxiliary condenser can be applied to any size CenTraVac.

Safe

Because the auxiliary condenser is a separate condenser, there is no possibility of cross contamination between the cooling tower water and the auxiliary condenser water circuits.

Efficient

Use of the auxiliary condenser option actually increases the chiller’s efficiency by increasing condenser heat transfer surface area and lowering the pressure differential the compressor must generate.

Decreased life cycle operating costs result through use of the auxiliary condenser option because heat, which normally would be rejected by the cooling tower circuit, is now used for building heating requirements.

Application

A simultaneous demand for heating and cooling is necessary to apply any heat recovery system. Common uses for heated water from an auxiliary condenser include domestic water preheat, reheat air conditioning systems, and boiler makeup water. Building use is not limited to the traditional heat recovery candidates. Schools, hospitals, office buildings, and hotels have all proved to be excellent applications for the auxiliary condenser option.
