 - Open-loop and closed-loop design solutions for different building systems
 
- Advanced touchscreen display provides faster, easier navigation compared to legacy 2-line displays
 - Intelligent controls also optimize the balance between using fans to move air over the free-cooling coils
 - Quick Start option achieves full load after a power loss in four minutes or less
 - Integrated air-to-liquid, free-cooling coils, designed by our heat transfer experts, reduce or eliminate the need for mechanical cooling when conditions allow
 
Quick Start
Because YVFA chillers contain a variable-speed drive, there is no inrush of current. As a result, all compressors can be started together. This allows a faster ramp-up to full capacity than possible with a typical chiller.
