For Konzum Klik, MB Frigo Grupa delivered: Haier R32 modular water chiller. Total capacity: 200 kW.
About the project: Konzum Klik
Konzum Klik is the online store of Konzum, one of Croatia’s leading retail chains. Facilities for preparing and dispatching online orders operate in multiple shifts, so a system that runs reliably with the lowest possible operating costs is essential.

Solution: Haier R32 modular water chiller
The Haier R32 modular water chiller is an air-to-water monobloc system that provides cooling and heating from a single platform and, depending on the configuration, domestic hot water. It uses the refrigerant R32, which has a lower global warming potential (GWP) and requires a smaller charge than older refrigerants, and is equipped with DC inverter scroll compressors with EVI technology (Enhanced Vapor Injection) for stable operation even at low outdoor temperatures.
What this means for designers and investors:
- Modularity – up to 16 units can be connected in cascade, so capacity is matched precisely to the building and the system can be built and expanded in phases.
- Reliability and redundancy – several smaller units instead of one large unit keep the building supplied even while one unit is being serviced.
- Wide operating range – operation at outdoor temperatures from –30 °C to +53 °C.
- High part-load efficiency – inverter control follows the actual demand of the building throughout the day and season.
- Easy integration – compatible with fan coils, underfloor heating and radiators, with monitoring via BMS/SCADA (Modbus).
Why MB Frigo Grupa
Haier is one of the world’s leading manufacturers of air-conditioning equipment and heat pumps. MB Frigo Grupa has been active in air conditioning and refrigeration since 1981. For air-conditioning projects it provides technical support for designers in selecting and sizing systems, equipment supply, and support with commissioning, service and maintenance.
Frequently asked questions
What kind of air conditioning do online order fulfilment facilities need?
These facilities run in several shifts, with large open spaces and frequently opened loading doors. They need a system that works efficiently under varying load and is easy to extend as the business grows – the main advantages of a modular water chiller.
What is a modular water chiller?
It is a system made up of several identical air-to-water units connected in cascade. Total capacity is the sum of the units, and the control switches on only as many units as the building needs at any moment.
