Case Study: Providence St. Jude Medical Center achieves more reliable chiller performance with Southland Industries

Providence restores a critical 400-ton chiller with Southland Industries

Providence St. Jude Medical Center, a 320-bed nonprofit hospital, faced challenges with an obsolete controls system on a critical 400-ton chiller, which led to inefficiencies and high maintenance costs. Southland Industries, their longtime service partner, was engaged to modernize the system and address these issues.

Southland Industries installed a new MCS Magnum control panel with a touchscreen interface and retrofitted the starter for compatibility. Their team minimized downtime in the active hospital, overcame sourcing challenges, and provided training and warranty coordination. The project by Southland Industries restored reliable chiller operation, improved diagnostics, reduced maintenance complexity, and enhanced refrigerant efficiency.
