DX free cooling, or economized cooling, is a smart and energy-efficient method that leverages lower outdoor temperatures to minimize the reliance on mechanical refrigeration. By using an LPA pump to circulate the refrigerant when conditions are favorable, the system can effectively transfer heat outside, bypassing the energy-intensive vapor compression cycle.

This process not only saves energy but also extends the life of the compressors by reducing their workload during cooler periods. It’s an example of how innovative engineering solutions can lead to more sustainable and cost-effective operations in HVAC systems.

DX free cooling systems are particularly suitable for applications where heat extraction is critical, such as in data centers, server rooms, remote electrical switch-gear, underground rail systems, subways, or rail networks. They can handle production cooling capacities ranging from 15 to 150 tons per circuit, making them versatile for various industrial and commercial settings.

Upgrading a refrigeration system can be complex and requires a thorough understanding of the system’s design, operation, and the specific technologies involved, such as Liquid Pressure Amplification (LPA). A qualified engineer will have the expertise to ensure that the upgrade is done correctly, safely, and in a way that maximizes the system’s efficiency and performance. It’s always best to rely on professionals when making significant changes to specialized equipment.
