Powering and cooling of warehouse saves premium chocolate production in Vienna

Challenge

A prestigious international chocolate manufacturer needed additional warehouse space in Vienna to protect their delicate products during a production peak in summer. They found a warehouse, but it did not have temperature control. It was then urgent to build a reliable cooling installation. 

Solution

Trane’s local team of engineers and service technicians provided a turnkey solution from planning to fulfillment. They surveyed the site and devised a complete temperature control installation including:

• 2 x 500 kW air-cooled chillers

• 8 x 150 kW air handling units

• 2 x 1000 l buffer tanks

• 4 x 200 kVA generator sets

• 600 m hoses

The quick delivery of the solution with high quality equipment and top-grade installation met customer’s power and cooling needs. 

Results

With the temporary cooling installation in place, Trane Rental Services provided the perfect storage environment for the temperature-sensitive chocolate products.
