ProjectProcess Cooling System — Design & Installation
LocationFort Collins, Colorado
OwnerAdvanced Energy
DeliveryASE prime / lead · design and installation
Completed2023
Systems125-ton chiller · waterside economizer · process cooling distribution piping

Advanced Energy's lab operations needed a new process cooling plant — and they needed it installed without interrupting the work the cooling serves. ASE designed and installed the system as prime contractor: a 125-ton chiller paired with a waterside economizer for free cooling when Colorado's climate allows it.

Outcome

The system went in with no lab downtime and has performed well since startup. Pairing the chiller with a waterside economizer reflects ASE's design philosophy: functional, economical, and built for the owner's operating costs over a 20-year life cycle — not just the day it's commissioned.
