Chiller comsumption

[petchong]

Chiller comsumption calculation is by the watts or hp?

Got a CL650 running on 650w, if I will to get a artica 1/4 hp chiller running 200w , does that mean that the comsumption will be a saving of more that 60 percent. can anyone advise on that?

i f i'm not wrong 650w is the cooling capacity not power

I'm not sure on the actual spec of the chillers but i think the

Running amp for 650 is around 2.4-2.6(A) and the arctica is 2.6(A)

if the HP of the chiller is the same the higher the running amp of the chiller the more the power it takes the more u pay.

hope the above logic helps
