What Are Chillers?

Chillers are specialized refrigeration units designed to cool liquids, most often water or ethylene glycol solutions. They are widely used in industry, construction, the food industry, medicine and many other fields where precise temperature control is required.

How a chiller works

The operating principle of a chiller is based on the refrigerant vapor-compression cycle. The main components of a chiller include a compressor, a condenser, an evaporator and an expansion valve. The compressor compresses the refrigerant, raising its temperature and pressure. The hot gaseous refrigerant then enters the condenser, where it is cooled and condenses into a liquid. The liquid refrigerant then passes through the expansion valve, lowering its pressure and temperature. Finally, the cold refrigerant enters the evaporator, where it absorbs heat from the coolant, cooling it.

Examples of PlasticExpert industrial chillers:

SVL-50(F) AIR-COOLED INDUSTRIAL CHILLER

This chiller is also used in industry and features air cooling. This means that the heat exchanger is arranged so as to efficiently remove heat into the surrounding environment by means of fans. The model is equipped with modern components that ensure high efficiency and reliable operation.

Technical specifications:

SVL-40(F) AIR-COOLED INDUSTRIAL CHILLER

This model is similar to the previous one, but has a lower cooling capacity — 40 kW. It is ideal for small production sites and premises that require moderate liquid cooling. Like the previous model, this chiller is equipped with an automatic temperature control system and reliable components.

Conclusion

Chillers are indispensable devices in various industries. They provide the stable liquid cooling needed to maintain optimal conditions for production and product storage. Plastic Expert offers a wide range of chillers, from which everyone can choose a suitable model based on the specific needs of their enterprise.
