Maintenance isn’t an expense; it’s an investment that saves you thousands in the long run. A critical failure in your absorption chiller leads to hours of downtime, costly repairs, and even worse, a spike in energy consumption. What could you have done to prevent it? The answer is simple: Maintenance Vamtec’s guide to mastering absorption Read more about Maintenance Practices[…]
The Skills Gap in the Energy Sector: The energy sector is currently facing a significant skills gap, particularly in areas critical to Vamtec’s operations, such as the maintenance and optimization of advanced industrial heating and cooling systems. This shortage is driven by several factors: Technological Advancements: The ever-changing evolution of energy technologies, including absorption chillers Read more about Skills Gap in Energy Sector[…]
Lithium Bromide is highly corrosive in the presence of air. A prolonged small leak in the absorption chiller caused internal corrosion, blocking the heat exchangers and stopping the chiller from functioning. An LiBr analysis found the copper content to be over 5000 ppm. The customer faced a dilemma between repair and replacement. Our systematic diagnostic Read more about Internal Corrosion[…]
The abundant sunshine in Spain provides a significant advantage for diversifying energy sources. As part of building a sustainable future, a 106 kW hot water absorption chiller with solar vacuum collectors and PV cells was installed for an eco-friendly office in Madrid, Spain. During the summer months, the solar vacuum collector provides 90°C hot water Read more about Solar Cooling[…]
A 2.5MW steam-fired absorption chiller installed in 1997 was operating with very poor performance due to various failures over the years. With its unreliable performance, the customer faced a decisive phase—whether to replace or repair the chiller. We intervened at the right time, discovering that the Lithium Bromide specifications were out of range, specifically in Read more about Back in Operation[…]
