The Hitema Turbocor® Chiller is a fully engineered-to-order, air-cooled system developed specifically for high-density, AI-driven and HPC data center applications. The unit is designed to operate within mission-critical environments where redundancy, part-load efficiency, and precise thermal stability are mandatory design parameters. With a nominal cooling capacity of 1,500 kW per unit, the platform supports modular plant configurations for multi-megawatt installations.

Mechanical and Thermodynamic Configuration

Control and Operational Logic

The platform delivers on-demand capacity modulation via oil-free variable-speed compressors, with precision control of leaving water temperature for liquid cooling and CRAH/CRAC integration. Part-load performance is optimised for data center dynamic load profiles. The system offers full integration capability with BMS and DCIM systems, and redundancy strategies aligned with N+1 and 2N plant architectures.

Design Focus for Data center Applications

• High part-load efficiency — critical for real-world AI and HPC operating conditions
• Reduced mechanical wear due to oil-free magnetic bearing architecture
• Simplified maintenance cycles and extended service intervals
• Full compatibility with liquid cooling infrastructures and CDU integration
• Engineered footprint optimisation for rooftop and plant deck installations

This platform is specifically engineered for: AI clusters with variable load profiles, high-density rack deployments, direct-to-chip liquid cooling plants, and hyperscale and colocation facilities.
