50/50 Four Pipe SystemThe Whalen 50/50 system features all the advantages of a conventional 4-pipe system but reduces pump and piping requirements by 50 percent. During design day conditions, two pumps---each sized to carry 50 percent of the total flow---operate in parallel delivering 100 percent of the hot or chilled water required. Marginal days can be handled either by one or two pumps circulating hot or chilled water through one or both heat-exchangers. This design allows pump and motor usage to be staged as conditions require, keeping energy demands at a minimum.

Elimination of all electric valves, dampers, and flow control valves

Absence of any soldered connections within the cabinet
Reduction in operating costs with two fans per unit sized for 50 percent of total CFM required
Simplified maintenance procedures which reduce costs
Significant reduction of total installation and operating costs
