Since its launch in early 2018, the YORK YZ Magnetic Bearing Centrifugal Chiller has been recognized across the HVAC industry. As the first chiller fully optimized for ultimate performance with a next generation low-global warming potential (GWP) refrigerant, these units were designed and engineered by a team of experts who “reimagined” what a chiller could be. YORK YZ chillers deliver the widest range of cooling capacity to serve the diverse application needs of its customers

To date, YORK YZ chillers are providing over 25,000 tons of total cooling capacity across the world. The awards won by the YORK YZ Water-Cooled Magnetic Bearing Centrifugal Chiller prove that it is a revolutionary advancement that challenges everything about conventional chiller design. The YORK YZ Chiller has been honored globally for its innovation.

The awards won by the YORK YZ Water-Cooled Magnetic Bearing Centrifugal Chiller prove that it is a revolutionary advancement that challenges everything about conventional chiller design. Built upon decades of chiller expertise, the engineering team questioned every component, analyzed every function and challenged every assumption.

This was accomplished through a holistic approach to system design and engineering, optimizing every component around a carefully selected next generation refrigerant for ultimate performance. To maximize value, the YORK YZ design minimizes operating costs by leveraging the benefits of a new refrigerant in the heat exchangers and motor/compressor driveline while also mitigating the high cost of other refrigerants.
