"The new systems align with the National Environment Agency's (NEA) latest initiative to gradually phase out air conditioning equipment that utilise refrigerants with a high Global Warming Potential (GWP)." Country Sales & Service Manager for Johnson Controls-Hitachi Air Conditioning Singapore, Victor Lee, said. "We are proud to provide cutting-edge, low-carbon HVAC solutions in Singapore, supporting both our business goals and the decarbonisation process. Through innovative technologies and sustainable practices, we are meeting environmental standards and shaping a greener future for the built environment."

Low-GWP refrigerants enable seamless energy transition

  • The Direct-drive VSD Centrifugal Chiller VG Series features a high-speed VSD motor and gearless direct-drive two-stage compressor. This design increases efficiency for greater energy savings, crafted perfectly for commercial and industrial applications to lower energy consumption and operating costs while reducing the environmental impact of the cooling system.
  • The Centrifugal Chiller S Series adopts a patented centrifugal two-stage compression technology and optimises the use of low-temperature cooling water to enhance performance, allowing the minimum inlet temperature to reach 12°C. Depending on the model, it offers a broad capacity range from 300 to 3000RT to meet various commercial and industrial building requirements.

The VG and S Series Centrifugal Chillers both adopt R513a and R1234ze refrigerants, which are chlorine-free and ozone-safe, ensuring minimal environmental impact while delivering superior performance.

Harnessing technology-driven, energy-efficient HVAC solutions for a greener future

In addition to utilising sustainable refrigerants, Johnson Controls-Hitachi Air Conditioning Singapore is dedicated to developing energy-efficient HVAC solutions, supporting Singapore's goal of achieving carbon neutrality as outlined in its Climate Action Plan 2030.
