About

University College London awarded a contract to Meridian Cooling Ltd for the replacement of a downgraded chiller unit and modifications to the chilled water system at the London Centre of Nanotechnology (LCN).

The scope included installation of a low loss header, 3-port valves, pumps, controls, distribution pipework in risers from basement -2 to roof level, a side stream filter, PRVs, and a controls upgrade to improve cooling resilience, particularly for the process cooling system that serves critical experimental equipment and nanofabrication facilities used by researchers across UCL and external cleanroom users.

Special considerations were required due to the building's sensitivity to vibration.

The contract value was AUD 369,700.
