Lindau, Germany, 30 April 2018: ENGIE Refrigeration GmbH will supply Hamburg Airport with cooling solutions, the company announced in a Press communiqué. Hamburg airport has already been running four Quantum chillers at terminal 1 and on the premises of the German air traffic controller service DFS for several years, the communiqué said. The airport operator has now awarded ENGIE Refrigeration the order for handling terminal 2’s refrigeration, the communiqué further said. ENGIE will be installing an innovative refrigeration solution utilising three additional Quantum chillers, the communiqué added.

According to ENGIE Refrigeration, Hamburg Airport handles more than 17 million flight passengers a year. To ensure that all travellers at the airport enjoy a pleasant climate and to keep the technical facilities operating without disruption, air conditioning and process cooling need to be utterly reliable, the communiqué said. ENGIE Refrigeration is collaborating with the engineers from Pinck Ingenieure Consulting to set up new refrigeration technology at terminal 2, the communiqué further said. Three air-cooled Quantum chillers, each with a capacity of 1.35 megawatts and four oil-free Turbocor compressors, have already been installed on the roof of multi-storey car park P5, the communiqué added.
