I've been around a few McQuay PEH and PFH centrifugals from 300 to 1200 tons, and they have been very quiet. Are there some others that are much louder? I haven't worked with any of McQuay's large industrial chillers, or any of the old Westinghouse chillers.

Yea I was speaking about those old Westinghouse Centrifugal Chillers when they unload you will need some hearing protection in that room.
Arguing with your Boss is like wrestling with a pig in
mud.
After a while you realize that while you are getting
dirty, the pig is actually enjoying it.
It is not exactly cheating, I prefer to consider it
creative problem solving.

The book of Exodus, chapter 20, verse 7, comes to mind. I hope this was just a slip - it seems a little beneath you... Originally Posted by Tech Rob

We have chillers tear up like this in so. Fl., almost always preceded by a sudden drop & spike in power, which caused motor to slow down and then increase to operating speed. Sheared bolts, damaged impellar, have to do a complete overhaul. Since we couldn't count on the integrity of all the internal parts anymore.
