MGR

The MGR recirculating chiller from Applied Thermal Control is a space-saving, environmentally friendly cooling solution designed for laboratory and industrial applications. The MGR replaces the KTR model, offering enhanced efficiency and sustainability while maintaining reliable temperature management with a cooling capacity of 0.5kW*.

Its eco-conscious design incorporates R290, a natural refrigerant, ensuring full compliance with environmental regulations and a reduced environmental impact without compromising performance.

*0.5kW cooling capacity at a +20°C set point in a 20°C ambient environment.

Environmentally Conscious Cooling

By utilising R290, the MGR not only meets global environmental regulations but actively contributes to reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

MG Series chillers, including the MGR, are not subject to F-Gas regulations, making them an ideal solution for environmentally conscious laboratories and industries aiming to minimise their ecological impact.

Space Saving and Durable Construction

With its small footprint and energy-efficient operation, the MGR recirculating chiller is a reliable choice for cooling applications that do not require precise temperature control.

Its compact size makes it an ideal solution for benchtop systems and confined spaces. Built with a robust, powder-coated steel enclosure, the MGR is designed for durability in demanding industrial and laboratory environments.

Flexible and User-Friendly Operation

Designed for ease of use, the MGR features a visible fluid level indicator and a flow-through tank system with increased depth to reduce turbulence.

Push-fit connections enable hassle-free installation and maintenance. Multi-voltage and multi-frequency capabilities offer seamless global integration, making the MGR adaptable to a range of cooling requirements.

Safety and Compliance

Built for reliability, the MGR includes process stop interlocks for empty fluid reservoirs and alarms for temperature deviations, ensuring safe operation.

It meets CE and UKCA standards and is designed in accordance with UL requirements, reinforcing its compliance with international safety regulations.
