Thermax has now introduced its 10-80 NTR hot water driven absorption machines, appropriately named as Cogenie. This machine uses hot water from a gas engine or micro turbine as energy source. The introduction of Cogenie reiterates Thermax's commitment to provide the most optimal and "best in class" solutions for (CHPC) Combined Heating, Power and Cooling.

Cogenie can be used in the following schemes:
Gas Engine CHP
MicroTurbine CHP

These schemes can cater to requirements of air conditioning during summers and space heating during winters.

Features:
10-100% Stepless Modulation:
For cooling loads ranging from 10 % to 100 % of the designed capacity, the 3-way diverting valve automatically varies hot water flow in order to maintain the temperature of chilled water leaving the machine.This ensures better part-load performance.
Split Evaporator Design: Special design features and other innovations increase the efficiency considerably.
Auto De-crystallization: These machines are installed with a unique auto de-crystallization circuit to eliminate crystallization.
On-line Purging: The factory mounted and tested purging unit consists of an electrical motor driven purge pump, storage tank, necessary piping and valves. Any non-condensable gas generated in the machine during operation, is purged continuously into the storage tank, thereby maintaining low vacuum in the shell.
Side Exit Nozzles: The absorber, evaporator and condenser headers are provided with side exit nozzles for ease of maintenance and lower down-time. The absorber and condenser headers are hinged type, for easy access to the tube bundle and eliminate need for heavy lifting arrangements.
Gravity Feed System: The Thermax machines use gravity feed, non-pressurised super-spraying system, for spraying refrigerant and absorbent. This avoids the use of nozzles, which have the problems of clogging and wear & tear.
PLC Based Control Panel: These machines are provided with state-of-the-art PLC based control panel with unique display, user friendly interface and data-logging system.
Cross-over Piping: The cross-over piping from absorber to condenser is a standard feature in Thermax vapour absorption machines. It reduces the piping work, welding, etc. at site.
Isolation Valves for Pumps: Isolation valves provided on the pumps, facilitate on-line pump maintenance, without breaking the vacuum in the Thermax vapour absorption machine.
Generator Tubes:
Thermax uses: Low fin copper tubes in the generator for LT series.
SS 430 Ti ferritic stainless steel tubes in the generator for MT series.
SS 430 Ti ferritic stainless steel tubes in the high temperature generator for HT series
Corrosion Inhibitors: Thermax uses the new generation corrosion inhibitor, Lithium Molybdate which is more effective than Lithium Nitrate and Lithium Chromate, which are conventionally used. Lithium Nitrate can generate Ammonium Nitrate(NH4NO3) which is harmful to copper

Optional Features:
Machine Mounted standby Canned Motor Pumps: When specified, Thermax can offer machine mounted standby absorbent and refrigerant pumps.
Machine Mounted Bearing Monitoring for Canned Motor Pumps: As a special option Thermax can provide a TRG meter for machine mounted bearing monitoring of the pumps. By continuously measuring the bearing clearance, through eddy currents, the TRG reading pro-actively lets the user know the health of the bearing at any given instant.
Special Tube Material for Evaporator/ Absorber/ Condenser: The selection of tube material is done purely on the basis of the water quality available at the jobsite. Accordingly, Thermax offers special tube metallurgy to enhance the life of the machine.
Multi-sectional Shipment Arrangements: For convenience of shipping and rigging, the vapour absorption machines can be shipped in two or more sections depending upon the site requirements. This is particularly beneficial for retrofit jobs.
Factory performance Test: After assembly, the machine can be performance tested under simulated site conditions before it leaves the factory. The factory assembled and tested unit considerably reduces the time needed for installation and commissioning of the units at site.
