Product Overview
Containerized Chiller Plant is a prefabricated, plug-and-play cooling source solution purpose-built for data centers, edge computing nodes, and mission-critical IT facilities. It integrates chillers, pumps, cooling towers, piping systems, and intelligent controls into a standard shipping container - delivering a complete, factory-assembled chiller plant that requires only on-site connection to power and water piping for immediate operation.
Unlike traditional chiller plants that demand dedicated equipment rooms and extensive on-site construction, the containerized design eliminates the need for a dedicated machine room. The unit can be deployed outdoors, on rooftops, or in any available open space, freeing up valuable building interior space for IT equipment - particularly critical for data centers where every square meter of white space directly impacts revenue-generating capacity.
The system supports air-cooled, water-cooled, or dual-cool source configurations, with compressor types selectable from screw, centrifugal, or magnetic bearing centrifugal based on project scale and efficiency requirements. Single-container cooling capacity typically ranges from 100RT to 2,200RT depending on configuration, with multi-container designs enabling N+1 redundancy and capacities up to 4,000RT and above.
As a total solution provider, we deliver not only the containerized chiller plant but also coordinate the complete cooling chain - ensuring seamless integration with downstream terminal equipment including AHUs, precision AC units, and liquid cooling distribution systems.
Core Features
Fully Factory Prefabricated & Pre-Commissioned
All equipment - chillers, pumps, cooling towers, piping, valves, and controls - is assembled, piped, wired, and system-tested at the factory. The complete chiller plant undergoes full system validation prior to shipment. On-site work is reduced to lifting the container into position and connecting power, water supply, and return piping - dramatically shortening installation timelines from months to days.
Containerized Enclosure - No Dedicated Plant Room Required
The unit is housed in a high-strength, corrosion-resistant container structure with waterproof and anti-corrosion coatings, rainproof louvers, sealed access doors, weatherproof electrical enclosures, and insect/dust filtration. Internal insulation and forced ventilation maintain stable internal conditions across ambient temperatures from -30℃ to +50℃, ensuring reliable operation in diverse climates.
True Plug-and-Play Deployment
Each container arrives on-site as a complete, self-contained chiller plant - all internal piping, electrical connections, and control logic are already validated. This eliminates the need for on-site equipment matching, complex piping fabrication, and extended commissioning periods, enabling data centers to achieve cooling availability on day one.
Flexible Scalability & Redundancy
The modular containerized design supports flexible expansion concepts - additional containers can be added as IT load grows, allowing data centers to scale cooling capacity in alignment with business growth. Multi-container configurations enable N+1 redundancy, ensuring uninterrupted cooling for mission-critical applications.
Intelligent Controls & Remote Management
Equipped with a centralized monitoring and management platform providing comprehensive oversight of all system components. Supports real-time monitoring, automated fault detection, and remote diagnostics. Compatible with data center BMS and DCIM platforms, with communication protocols flexibly configurable based on project requirements.
Adaptable to Data Center Power Density Evolution
The containerized design inherently supports the evolution from air-cooled to liquid-cooled architectures. As AI workloads drive power densities upward, the system accommodates incremental liquid cooling deployment without requiring overall system replacement, protecting long-term capital investment.
