At Tempest, engineering isn’t a department, it’s our core strength. We design and manufacture custom engineered low temperature industrial chillers and temperature control units (TCUs) to meet the specified functional and performance requirements. Our in-house engineering team combines decades of refrigeration, thermal-fluid, and controls expertise to deliver solutions that standard off-the-shelf equipment simply cannot achieve. Whether you need extreme ranges of temperature control, explosion proof C1D2 systems for hazardous locations, or equipment designed in tight footprints, we engineer every detail to your exact process requirements.

From initial thermal load calculations and P&ID Development through 3D modeling, fabrication, testing, and commissioning, every system is designed, built, and tested under one roof in our Cleveland, OH facility. This vertical integration gives us unmatched speed, quality control, and the ability to iterate quickly when your process evolves.

Tempest Low Temperature Industrial Chiller

Collaborative Engineering Engagements - From Process Design to Optimized Chiller Specifications

We partner with EPCM engineering firms and end user engineering project teams during the front-end engineering and design (FEED) project phase. Clients have turned to Tempest to assist with technical and cost feasibilities of the equipment, designing for fitment in tight footprint constraints, and for helping to fully spec out the required system.

Our engineering engagement bridges the critical gap between process design and chiller specification by utilizing the Tempest 4D FOCESS approach to define, discover, develop, and deploy the important facts, objectives, challenges, and objectives that need to be achieved. These efforts mitigate redesign time and costly change order later in the project.

Engineering Engagement Deliverables Include:
