Typical applications
For small to medium heat loads: mold and hydraulic oil cooling on plastics machines, laser and machining equipment, laboratory and workshop lines. The electrical panel, valves, pressure gauges and evaporator are assembled and tested in our factory.
How to choose the right capacity
Real cooling capacity depends on the leaving water temperature, the ambient air temperature and the refrigerant, so it is not the same as compressor horsepower. Calculate the process heat load from Q = ṁ · cp · ΔT: for example, 10 m³/h of water with a 5 K temperature rise carries about 58 kW. Send us your operating conditions and we will size the unit for you.
Frequently asked questions
Does an air-cooled chiller need a cooling tower?
No. The condenser rejects heat to the surrounding air with its fans, so no cooling tower or make-up water is needed.
What warranty does it have?
According to our catalog: one year of warranty and lifetime after-sales service for all parts.
