All details about CyberCool Explorer WS
WSA and WSI versions
CyberCool Explorer WS chillers are available as standard units (WSA) and with inverter-driven screw compressors (WSI). Both versions are optimized for low GWP eco-friendly refrigerants (WSA: R513A and R1234ze, WSI: R1234ze).
Maximum operational reliability
CyberCool Explorer WS units are designed for 24/7 operation, 365 days a year. During development and design, the focus was on maximum reliability. This not only guarantees the chiller’s problem-free condition during transport on the road or in a container, it also ensures reliable operation over many years.
The chiller can be adapted to different thermal loads via the refrigerant circuit with screw compressors including output slider. Continuity and reliability of cooling are key factors, ensured by a comprehensive range of options and features that maximize uptime in the event of an emergency, such as Quick Start, Automatic Transfer Switch and Emergency Cooling. The arrangement of the components allows easy maintenance.
Energy efficiency
CyberCool Explorer WS units are designed for maximum efficiency in both peak and part load conditions and are ErP2021 - SEPR HT (EU) 2016/2281 compliant.
This is achieved by:
- Increased heat exchange surface area of evaporators and microchannel condensers
- Economizer heat exchangers
- Inverter technology on the compressor, EC fans and VSD pumps
- Maximized Free Cooling coils, which use outside air as the primary cooling source, allowing pure Free Cooling operation even around +10 °C.
Optimized for IT applications
With maximum water temperatures of +32 °C inlet and +25 °C outlet, the unit offers a high capacity/footprint ratio and EER efficiency. This results in improved unit CAPEX and OPEX.
Extended operating limits
Thanks to specific versions and accessories, CyberCool Explorer WS can be installed in very cold and hot climates worldwide.
Suitable for any critical structure
Single- and dual-circuit units
Depending on the model, CyberCool Explorer WS units are equipped with one or two refrigeration circuits. Single-circuit units feature a brazed plate evaporator designed to maximize the heat exchange coefficient with minimal pressure drops.
Dual-circuit units are equipped with a dry expansion single pass shell-and-tube evaporator. Copper tubes are internally grooved to ensure high heat exchange and are inspectable for easy maintenance.
Both evaporator models are protected against freezing and have Victaulic® connections for quick installation.
Free Cooling
In data centers, where cooling demand is constant throughout the year, Free Cooling technology offers the greatest potential for energy savings, especially in cold and temperate climates.
Both WSA and WSI units offer Free Cooling and can operate in environments down to -20 °C (-40 °C available as an option) thanks to three different operating modes: Free Cooling mode, Mixed mode and Compressor mode (DX). These are automatically selected by the SEC.blue controller based on the ambient air and operating water temperatures. Sec.blue logic controls the water valves to maximize heat exchange with the environment in Free Cooling.

Cooling mode):
• WSJ563 unit operating 24H/365
• Nominal cooling capacity 1,646 kW
• Water temperature (in/out) 32 °C / 20 °C
• Ambient temperature + 35 °C
• Location: Berlin
Compressor mode (DX)
When the ambient temperature is higher than the water inlet temperature, the Free Cooling circuit is excluded. The water is completely cooled by the compressors in the refrigerant circuits.
Mixed mode
When the ambient temperature falls below the inlet water temperature, the water is diverted through the Free Cooling exchangers, which provide part of the required cooling capacity. At this stage, the power absorbed by the compressors is reduced.
Free Cooling mode
When the ambient temperature is approximately 10K lower than the supply temperature, the Free Cooling circuit can provide all the cooling capacity required by the user. The compressors are switched off and only the fans are active. This significantly reduces energy consumption and minimizes running costs.
Full inverter versions
The WSI units with inverter-driven screw compressors are available with and without Free Cooling. The units combine the advantages of inverter technology with the benefits of the environmentally friendly HFO refrigerant R1234ze.
The use of inverter technology for compressors, fans and pumps maximizes the energy efficiency of these units. Inverter-driven screw compressors improve efficiency especially at part loads and in Mixed mode operation, resulting in significant annual energy savings of up to 15% compared to traditional solutions.
Inverter screw compressors
These semi-hermetic screw compressors feature an integrated frequency converter that adjusts the cooling capacity of each compressor from 25% to 100%. In dual-circuit units the minimum total control step is 12.5%. The variation of the Vi compressor ratio by means of a cassette valve, combined with the reduction of the speed, allows the energy efficiency of the unit to be maximized under all operating conditions.
Optimized energy efficiency levels
WSI units are designed to ensure both maximum efficiency under peak conditions and optimized consumption under partial loads. They are therefore the ideal solution for chilled water cooling in data centers.
Low inrush current
Inverter technology in screw compressors ensures a low start-up inrush current, which not only reduces stress on mechanical components and preserves the electric motor, but also reduces peak loads on the local electrical infrastructure.
Ready for any worldwide regulation and directive
The use of new-generation environmentally friendly refrigerants such as R513A (GWP=573) and R1234ze (GWP=7) enables WSA/WSI units to comply with the main European and international standards, which regulate the use of refrigerant gases according to their impact on the greenhouse effect (GWP Global Warming Potential). All WSA/WSI units comply with both the newly revised European F-gas regulation which, from 2027, will prohibit the use of refrigerants with a GWP greater than 750 for chillers with a rated output of more than 12 kW, and with the US AIM Act which, from 2025/26, will prohibit the use of refrigerant gases with a GWP greater than 700 for chillers.
