portfolio of HVAC/R products from Fan Coil Units to large centrifugal chillers as well as many other innovative green
solutions. Our commitment to innovation, matched with an aggressive attitude toward growth, makes Dunham-Bush
a leader in global markets. Our product development is tailored to meet the specific needs of customers, building-by-
building, country-by-country and region-by-region. No other HVAC/R manufacturer takes this approach to meeting
your performance expectations.
The Dunham-Bush name is synonymous worldwide with the Rotary Screw Compressor Chillers technology. With
over 45 years of proven experience and track records in manufacturing and installation of Rotary Screw
Compressors and chillers, thousands of our Chillers have clocked more than 100,000 operating hours without any
compressor tear-out or overhaul! As a pioneer and industry leader in the Rotary Screw compressor technology for
HVAC/R systems, Dunham-Bush now introduces the Air Cooled Rotary Screw Flooded Chillers with unsurpassed
performance and reliability.
ACHELOUS, AVX-B Variable Speed Air Cooled Screw Chillers, have a cooling capacity range from 115 to 470 TR
[406 to 1656 kW] using environmentally sound R134a refrigerant. The entire product line features high energy
efficiency, installation ease, control flexibility, high reliability and advanced Vision 2020i controller. The AVX-B series
are certified to AHRI Standard 550/590 and meets / exceeded ASHRAE Standard 90.1 requirements.
