Key Features:

As part of a performance contract, the $16 million project consisted of the replacement of two chillers with two new 2,500 ton, high pressure steam driven chillers. The project also involved the addition of a 2,000 ton electric centrifugal chiller, which provides the chiller plant with a much needed increase in capacity. New pumps with variable frequency drives and automatic flow control valves were installed at each campus building to improve chilled water delta T.
