Direct Fired Absorption Chillers (Air-cooled and Water-cooled)
Direct-fired absorption chillers use a natural gas burner to produce chilled water. The chiller uses natural gas or other fuels to fire the absorption refrigeration cycle. They can be air cooled or water cooled. This type of chiller-heater can provide simultaneous heating and cooling. During simultaneous operation, the heating capacity is reduced as the cooling load increases.
