PRIMARY PRODUCT PATH
Marine Chillers & Chilled-Water Equipment
PSYCTOTHERM marine chillers can be evaluated for central chilled-water applications on merchant and passenger vessels, fishing-vessel chilled-water duties where applicable, and yachts. Selection is developed around the actual cooling load, chilled-water conditions, heat-rejection conditions, electrical supply, redundancy, available footprint and access.
A replacement chiller is only one part of the onboard result. TESS can define and coordinate the connected pumps, chilled-water and seawater piping, strainers, valves, insulation, foundations, electrical supply, controls, flushing, balancing and commissioning that the confirmed scope requires.
Certification and class requirements are confirmed for the selected equipment and vessel. PSYCTOTHERM notes marine and additional certification options on selected chiller configurations upon request; this is not generalized to every product.
- Pumps & flow
- Chilled-water piping
- Seawater interfaces
- Valves & strainers
- Electrical & controls
- Insulation & foundations
- Flushing / balancing
- Commissioning
DEDICATED MARINE SPACES
Marine Package, Deck & Split Air-Conditioning Equipment
Packaged, deck and marine split equipment can serve bridges, wheelhouses, upper-deck spaces, control rooms and other defined areas where a dedicated solution is technically appropriate.
For an existing unit, the review covers required duty, marine exposure, dimensions, removal and access route, duct arrangement, condensate drainage, electrical supply, controls, refrigerant strategy and any foundation or enclosure modification. Residential wall-split assumptions are not used as the design basis for a vessel equipment replacement.
- Cooling duty
- Marine exposure
- Duct & airflow
- Drainage
- Power supply
- Controls
- Footprint
- Removal route
AIR DELIVERY + CABIN COMFORT
Air Handling, Fan Coils & Custom Coils
PSYCTOTHERM airside equipment can be considered for AHU, fan-coil, cabin-unit and custom-coil requirements on commercial vessels, passenger vessels and yachts. Replacement work must connect the selected equipment to the real airflow, chilled-water or refrigerant circuit, drainage, ductwork, insulation, controls and access envelope.
Passenger and yacht applications often combine public-space AHUs with multiple cabin fan coils and control zones. TESS can survey the installed arrangement, define interface work and coordinate airflow balancing and commissioning where included in the confirmed scope.
Air Handling Units
- Public and technical spaces
- Chilled-water or refrigerant coils
- Filters, drains and controls
Fan Coils & Cabin Units
- Cabin and accommodation zones
- Piping, drains and control interfaces
- Access-led replacement planning
Custom Coils
- Measured face dimensions
- Connection and circuit review
- Airflow and duty confirmation
COMPLETE REFRIGERATION PATH
Provision Refrigeration, Condensing Units & Air Coolers
PSYCTOTHERM requirements can extend from a condensing unit or refrigeration air cooler to a complete provision-refrigeration plant with the necessary control and system interfaces. The commercial scope may address provision cold rooms, freezer rooms, galley-related storage and other defined shipboard temperature-controlled spaces.
Equipment selection is reviewed with the space duty, evaporating and condensing conditions, refrigerant strategy, air circulation, defrost and drainage needs, electrical supply, controls, piping route and commissioning plan. Existing refrigeration faults remain within the Marine Refrigeration Repair pathway until replacement is technically justified.
- Complete provision plant
- Condensing equipment
- Refrigeration air coolers
- Custom coils
- Controls & interfaces
- Cold / freezer rooms
- Onboard integration
- Commissioning
A heat exchanger, condenser or evaporator required as standalone thermal equipment belongs in the FARAD / marine heat exchanger pathway.
HIGH-VALUE REPLACEMENT PATH
Engineered Replacement for Obsolete or Other-Brand Equipment
Existing equipment may be discontinued, unsupported, corroded, unreliable or uneconomic to source. A PSYCTOTHERM solution can be evaluated as an engineered marine replacement—but suitability is confirmed against the complete operating and installation context.

FROM REPEATED FAILURE TO A DEFINED PROJECT
Marine HVAC & Refrigeration Retrofit / Modernization
A retrofit decision can follow obsolescence, repeated compressor failures, aging controls, degraded AHUs or coils, insufficient capacity, unreliable provision refrigeration, legacy refrigerant concerns, changed vessel service, accommodation conversion or a planned yacht refit.
Not every operating issue requires new equipment. TESS can separate diagnostic work from replacement planning, then connect a confirmed equipment scope to a wider modernization programme when piping, ducting, electrical, controls, accommodation or structural access cross several disciplines.
Legacy refrigerant availability, applicable requirements, efficiency, capacity control and lifecycle operating needs can be evaluated during replacement or modernization planning without assuming one universal conversion path.
- Obsolete plant
- Repeated failures
- Poor tropical performance
- Aging controls
- High maintenance burden
- Changed vessel service
- Accommodation conversion
- Yacht refit

REALISTIC CANAL AND PORT WINDOWS
Panama Canal Project Windows & Tropical Design Inputs
Panama can be used for preparation, survey, delivery and selected focused work. Major equipment replacement normally needs a planned repair, refit or dry-dock window rather than an assumption that all work fits within one Canal transit.
Before Arrival
Send photos, drawings, nameplates and ETA so TESS can begin identification, preliminary engineering, quotation and logistics planning.
During the Panama Call
Use Balboa, Colón / Cristóbal, anchorage, alongside or a shipyard window for confirmed survey, measurements, access review, delivery and selected focused work.
Planned Repair / Refit
Plan chiller, large AHU or full provision-plant replacement, multiple FCUs and major piping, ducting or control modification around a suitable execution window.
Confirm the real design basis
- Ambient temperature
- Humidity
- Seawater temperature
- Actual cooling load
- Airflow
- Electrical supply
- Available space
- Equipment-space condition
Equipment selection must account for the vessel's actual ambient and seawater design conditions, cooling load, airflow, electrical supply and available installation space.
