Flagship FM96CW 96000 BTU 230V Marine Water Chiller
Flagship FM96CW operates as a 96,000 BTU marine water chiller with 230V power for centralized cool-only vessel applications.
- 96,000 BTU capacity supports larger systems.
- 230V input suits listed installations.
- Marine water chiller serves centralized cooling.
- Cool-only operation excludes heating functions.
- FM96CW identifies the configuration.
Yachts needing several independent cooling zones without stepping up to the largest chiller class have a solid middle option in the Flagship FM96CW, delivering 96,000 BTU from a central water-cooled plant built on the same copper-nickel condenser platform as the rest of Flagship’s chiller lineup.
This yacht chiller independent zones system is sized to serve multiple staterooms or living areas from one central unit, giving boats in this capacity range the maintenance simplicity of a single service point instead of managing several separate split systems scattered through the vessel.
Why Choose the Flagship FM96CW
Flagship’s published warranty terms cover the condenser, chassis, compressor, and evaporator for five years parts and one year labor, with controls, pump, and blower covered for one year parts and labor. Given both the body-copy error and the phase notation discrepancy identified above, confirming exact specifications with Flagship or CTM before ordering is worth the extra step.
What to Know Before Installing
- Confirm actual voltage and phase configuration directly with Flagship given the discrepancy noted in the specifications above
- This chiller requires separately specified air handlers distributed to each independent zone — it is not a complete system on its own
- Ships via freight given the 340 lb weight; commercial delivery address required
- Professional installation and electrical planning is strongly recommended at this capacity
