Smardt Launches ECO AeroMod™: High-Efficiency Modular Air-Cooled Chiller Platform Built for Scalable Performance and Flexibility
MONTREAL, May 28, 2025 /CNW/ -- Smardt, a leader in energy-efficient HVAC solutions, today announced the launch of its new Smardt ECO AeroMod™ modular air-cooled chiller platform. This milestone marks a strategic expansion beyond Smardt's core oil-free centrifugal offering, introducing a high-performance solution engineered for scalable efficiency, modular flexibility, and seamless integration across a wide range of commercial and industrial building types. The AeroMod platform is part of the newly introduced Smardt ECO™ line representing Efficient, Conventional, and Optimized, designed to deliver top-tier performance using proven, non–oil-free compressor technologies.
"AeroMod gives owners and operators the flexibility to scale cooling capacity without compromising on space or efficiency," said Changiz Tolouee, Executive Vice President of Technology & Product Development at Smardt. "AeroMod addresses the evolving demands of building systems, where performance, footprint, reliability, and redundancy must work hand in hand. With this platform, we're applying proven chiller expertise to a broader set of applications and customers."
Smardt ECO AeroMod – Key Features at a Glance
- Modular design: 30 and 40-ton modules; connect up to 10 units for a total of 400 tons
- Refrigerant: R-454B (low GWP)
- Compressors: Dual variable-speed scroll compressors per unit
- Fans: EC fans with advanced airflow control
- Coils: All-aluminum microchannel condenser coils
- Redundancy & turndown: Up to 20 compressors across 10 modules; turndown to <2%
Designed for Scalable Performance
AeroMod's edge-to-edge modular design enables the connection of up to 10 units with no clearance required between modules, thanks to internal piping headers. This compact footprint and modularity allow for seamless expansion and simplified phasing of building cooling capacity.
Each AeroMod unit delivers superior part-load efficiency and built-in redundancy. A single module can unload down to 15% capacity with precision chilled water temperature control. A full 10-module configuration supports dynamic turndown to below 2% of total load, ensuring optimized energy use even at minimal demand.
Smart Integration for Modern Building Systems
With a user-friendly 7-inch touchscreen interface and full compatibility with leading building automation systems, AeroMod is built for modern integration. Installation is further streamlined by single-point power and water connections that reduce complexity and commissioning time.
Availability
The Smardt ECO AeroMod modular air-cooled chiller platform is now available throughout North America.
