High Efficiency And Simplicity In One Package
Custom Packaged HVAC Systems
Evaporative Condensing Chiller Systems
Mammoth evaporative condensing chillers offer you
efficiency that rivals water-cooled centrifugal chillers and
the simplicity of an air-cooled chiller
High-Efficiency Chiller Systems
Quality Design and Construction From The Experts
Mammoth evaporative condensing chiller systems can offer
as much as 40% operating cost savings versus air-cooled
alternatives and rival the efficiency of water-cooled centrifugal
chillers. They can be used in virtually any building application or
climate and are available in sizes from 50 to 1200 tons.
Mammoth pioneered the use of evaporative cooling in
commercial HVAC applications more than 40 years ago. Our
evaporative condensing chillers are designed to provide troublefree operation over the life cycle of your system:
•
Large-orifice, non-clogging water nozzles provide complete
and continuous wetting of the coil surface for a high rate of
heat transfer.
•
ABS tube sheets and a 304L stainless steel sump protect the
coils against abrasion and galvanic corrosion.
•
A walk-in service vestibule provides ample access to pumps
and water treatment components for easy maintenance and
service.
•
Advanced, chemical-free water treatment options are
environmentally friendly and can qualify for a LEED point.
The Benefits Of Evaporative Cooling
Evaporative cooling improves the heat rejection process by using
the cooling effect of evaporation. Water is sprayed over the
condensing coil from above while air is simultaneously blown
up from below. As the water evaporates, it naturally lowers the
condensing temperature. The result is reduced compressor kW
draw (25 to 30%) coupled with demand-charge savings of up to
30% of a utility bill in some cases.
But the benefits of these chillers do not stop with efficiency:
•
Up to a 50 percent smaller footprint than comparable
tonnage air-cooled chillers because they require less coil
surface area and move less air.
•
Quieter than comparable-tonnage, air-cooled chillers
because they move less air.
•
The reduced compressor kW draw can lower electrical
installed costs because wire sizes, disconnects and other
electrical controls can be reduced.
•
For replacement applications, you may be able to increase
tonnage with the same or less building electrical-service
needs and footprint.

Standalone or Integrated Controls
Unit, HVAC system and building controls are central elements
to the comfort and operating economy of your building. The
Mammoth EPiC™ system combines a software approach that
can work over a wide range of control protocols with specific
hardware interconnection tools to help you achieve your goals.
Our standard, factory-integrated DDC controller can be easily
customized to meet any sequence of operation required in
a 100% stand-alone mode or while connected to a Building
Automation System (BAS) using any of today’s four leading
protocols: BACnet®, Modbus®, N2®, and LONTALK®. Our base
controller provides ample input/output capacity plus support for
an expander board if additional I/O capacity is required.
Overall Features and Benefits
Flexible Designs to Match Your Application
From a simple, evaporative-cooled chiller to a super-efficient
one—combining oil-free, magnetic bearing compressors and
waterside economizers—we can meet your requirements.
Innovative Compressor Options
Available with oilfree, magnetic bearing
compressors that provide
unprecedented partload performance, low
maintenance and quiet,
reliable operation.
Scroll, screw, and centrifugal compressor options, including oilfree, magnetic bearing compressors, help you match the right
technology for optimum energy efficiency and reliability.
Quiet Operation
Noise-abating construction and other low-sound options include
double-wall cabinets, condenser fan silencers, variable-speed
condenser fans and FANWALL TECHNOLOGY condenser fans.
Integrated Pumping Packages
Pumps, piping and controls for chilled water distribution—as
well as boilers and pumps for hot water distribution—can be
integrated into the design of the system and factory installed.
Custom-Manufactured Heat Exchanger Optimized For
Your Application
Shell-and-tube or brazed-aluminum condenser heat-exchanger
options afford flexibility in size, cleanability and location.
Reliable Start-up and Operation
Each chiller system is factory assembled, piped, charged and runtested for reliable start-up. Dual sump and building supply pumps
and multiple compressors provide redundancy.
Typical energy usage (kWH) savings of evaporative versus aircooled condensing (200-ton office building)
Optional Factory Commissioning
Units can be commissioned at the factory to reduce start-up
times and field-commissioning costs.
High-Efficiency Condenser Operation
Large orifice, non-clogging water nozzles provide complete,
continuous wetting of coil surface for a high heat-transfer rate.
Easy Maintenance and Service
A walk-in service vestibule provides ample access to pumps and
water treatment components for easy maintenance and service.
Optional, sump sweep technology dramatically reduces manual
cleaning.
Reduced kW draw can lower your electrical installed costs. At

operating amps, 135 kW— #350 MCM). At right above: wiring for
a typical 100-ton evaporative condenser (157 operating amps, 103
kW— #2/0).
Advanced Water Treatment Options
Chemical-free systems that, in addition to being environmentallyresponsive, can also help you earn a point for LEED certification.
