EBARA REFRIGERATION SYSTEMS CORPORATION (hereinafter referred to as "EBARA REFRIGERATION SYSTEMS"), a member of our group, will release a new product [RTBA type turbo chiller] that reduces environmental load.
In recent years, in order to prevent global warming, it has become necessary to convert the HFC refrigerants used in refrigeration and air conditioning equipment to new refrigerants with a lower global warming potential (GWP) (low-GWP refrigerants). EBARA Refrigeration Systems responds to this challenge by offering the highly efficient [RTBA type turbo chiller] that uses the low GWP refrigerant HCFO-1224yd(Z) (product name: AMOLEA®1224yd).
[RTBA type turbo chiller] is a new product developed based on the technology of the reliable and proven high-efficiency RTBF type turbo chiller. HCFO-1224yd(Z) has an extremely low environmental impact with a GWP of less than 1, is nonflammable, and is a low-pressure refrigerant that is easy to handle, making it both low GWP and safe and reliable.

The "RTBA Turbo Chiller" is the best choice for all customers because it combines environmental load reduction with the same level of safety and security as before, based on technology cultivated through the development and manufacture of turbo chillers for about 90 years.
EBARA Refrigeration Systems will continue to contribute to the prevention of global warming by reducing the environmental burden.

Before the product goes on sale, we will be exhibiting actual units at the Ebara Refrigeration Equipment & Systems booth at the HVAC&R JAPAN 2018 Exhibition to be held at Makuhari Messe for four days from February 27 to March 2. We look forward to seeing you there and stopping by our booth.
