Low-GWP Refrigerant Compatible Chiller Pumps

Future-ready pumping for sustainable cooling.
The global transition to low-GWP (Global Warming Potential) refrigerants such as R-513A, R-1234ze, and R-1233zd requires compatible chiller pumps engineered to handle new operating pressures, temperatures, and materials. EKG Malaysia provides chiller pump solutions that ensure safe, efficient, and reliable performance with next-generation refrigerants, supporting your sustainability goals and compliance needs.

Key Compatibility Considerations:

• Material Selections: Use of compatible seals (e.g., HNBR, FKM/Viton®), gaskets, and internal components resistant to new refrigerant oils and chemistry.

• Thermal & Pressure Ratings: Pumps must withstand the specific evaporator and condenser temperatures and pressures of low-GWP chillers, which can differ from traditional HFCs.

• Efficiency Matching: Pump hydraulics must be optimized for the chiller’s new performance curve and operating envelope.

Our Compatible Pump Solutions:

• Primary Chilled Water Pumps: Precisely sized for the flow requirements of new low-GWP chiller evaporators.

• Condenser Water Pumps: Engineered for the specific heat rejection profiles and temperatures of new refrigerant cycles.

• Complete Pump Packages: Pre-assembled skids with compatible materials, motors, and controls for plug-and-play installation.

The Benefits of a Proactive Upgrade:

• Ensures System Integrity: Prevents premature seal failure, leaks, or material breakdown.

• Maintains Chiller Efficiency: Proper pump selection ensures the chiller operates at its designed efficiency.

• Future-Proofs Your Investment: Aligns your hydronic system with upcoming regulatory changes (F-Gas, Kigali Amendment).

• Supports Green Certifications: Contributes to points in LEED, BREEAM, Green Mark, and Malaysia's MyHIJAU/GBI certifications.
