Three Hour Turn Around for an Essential Hospital Chiller


The challenge

  • Urgent request for a chiller after a breakdown at a hospital; emergency temporary chiller required to provide cooling to MRI scanner
  • MRI scanners require constant cooling in order to operate efficiently, delivered through a chiller that keeps the unit at a consistent temperature; restoring the function is required as soon as possible.
  • Chiller requires lifting onto hospital roof for positioning in place of the failed chiller system

The solution

  • Due to time restrictions an onsite survey was unable to be carried out; our expert team determined chiller requirements and specified a 14kW chiller over the phone.
  • Upon site arrival our engineer carried out risk and method assessments; to ensure safety and equipment suitability before starting installation – this meant that the commissioning could run smoothly restoring cooling to the site quick as possible.
  • Transport at short notice; a long reach hiab was provided to enable us to lift the chiller into place on site.
  • Installation was quickly completed by our expert team; allowing for cooling to the MRI scanner to be restored.

The outcome

Our fast turn around service allowed us to restore cooling to a vital MRI scanner at a busy hospital – this rapid assessment, delivery and installation enabled the client to have minimal downtime.

Our expert team assessed and advised over the phone to speed up the process and provide a same day solution. Our engineer and chiller arrived on site where a risk and method assessment was carried out to ensure a smooth installation.

Within hours cooling was restored and essential appointments could be resumed.
