Heat recovery with refrigeration systems - it works thanks to AMONUM
AMONUM is versatile. The model covers brine applications down to -21 degrees Celsius as well as process cooling up to +16 degrees Celsius; our refrigeration systems enable heat recovery up to+ 53 degrees Celsius condensing temperature. This wide range makes our ammonia refrigeration technology ideal for the food and chemical industry in particular.

Ammonia refrigeration technology: versatile and efficient
At ENGIE Refrigeration, we only use the best of the best: that's why AMONUM Water is used in our company headquarters. With heat recovery of up to +53 degrees Celsius, the excellent thermodynamic properties of ammonia as a refrigerant and our tried and tested safety concept, AMONUM is the ideal choice - for us too.
For you, this means that with AMONUM you get refrigeration systems with heat recovery that fulfil many different requirements with a wide range of operating temperatures. The chemical industry, food industry, manufacturing and office buildings in particular benefit from the performance of these all-rounders. This is due in part to the compact and intelligent design of our 2.5 square metre ammonia refrigeration technology.
Are you looking for an all-round carefree package? Then AMONUM is exactly the right chiller for you. With a low refrigerant charge of less than ten kilograms, our ammonia refrigeration technology can be installed universally both indoors and outdoors. The compact housing and a sophisticated safety concept that has been tried and tested over many years ensure maximum reliability.

As with all our products, optimum efficiency is guaranteed with our refrigeration systems with heat recovery. A speed-controlled reciprocating compressor in conjunction with a cylinder bank circuit ensures ideal capacity adjustment to the required operating temperature.
The SIMATIC S7 controller ensures high energy efficiency. The AMONUM series is also Smart Grid-capable.
Highlights of our ammonia refrigeration technology also include
- Water-cooled liquid chiller
- Compact design in a closed housing
- Particularly easy to maintain thanks to easily removable panelling elements
- Available in four power levels
- Speed-controlled, open reciprocating compressor in combination with cylinder bank deactivation
- Control with S7 touch panel
- All electrical components integrated in the control cabinet
The use of ammonia as a refrigerant is important: it does not damage the ozone layer, does not contribute to global warming, is inexpensive and has a high specific cooling capacity. Thanks to their clever design, our AMONUM refrigeration systems with heat recovery are absolutely safe. This is how modern, sustainable cooling and heat generation works.
Further advantages of ammonia as a refrigerant are
- High availability
- Low energy requirement for cooling
- Low operating costs
- Can be localised immediately due to characteristic odour
