We currently run a 7.5 ton chiller that serves our needs well for about 90BBL of current capacity. We've purchased and are installed a 24 ton chiller for some future expansion, which will have head room for new tanks in the future.
We can either keep the 7.5 ton running our existing 90bbl system and install the 24 ton for the new tanks (about 150bbl of expansion, but loads are very distributed).
Is it possible to plumb them in series to service all of the tanks, assuming the flow is adequate? That way, if one chiller goes down, the other can support the load (or at least, partial load) while the other chiller is fixed?
Thanks!
