Air Cooled Chiller and Water Cooled Chiller

Air Cooled Chiller and Water Cooled Chiller

Industrial chillers are used in many production plants to cool down the equipment of the production enterprises, but many production plants do not know how to choose an air-cooled chiller or a water-cooled chiller. Below we will introduce the characteristics of these two chillers to help companies choose.

Air-cooled chiller: The air-cooled chiller adopts a finned condenser with a fan on the top to achieve efficient heat dissipation. The air-cooled chiller is easy to install, easy to move, and can be used after plugging in the power supply.

Water-cooled chiller: The difference between water-cooled chiller and air-cooled chiller is that the water-cooled chiller uses a shell-and-tube condenser to take away the heat in the unit, and the water-cooled chiller must be equipped with a cooling tower, and there is no air-cooled chiller for installation. convenient.

Cost: The initial cost of water-cooled chillers is higher than that of air-cooled chillers. Water-cooled chillers need to be equipped with cooling water towers and a separate machine room. In the later period, the power capacity of the air-cooled chiller increased, and the cost of electrical control equipment was relatively high.

Performance: Under the same outdoor ambient temperature, the temperature of the air-cooled type is generally around 8-12°C, and that of the water-cooled type is around 4-8°C. The temperature of the air-cooled chiller under normal operation is much higher than that of the water-cooled chiller, so the industrial air-cooled chiller consumes more power than the industrial water-cooled chiller at the same cooling capacity.

Maintenance: The air-cooled industrial chiller uses a finned condenser. If the condenser is dirty, it will have a great impact, and the finned type must be equipped with a dust filter, and it must be cleaned and maintained regularly. Air-cooled chillers are generally installed outdoors. If the environment is poor, maintenance may be more troublesome than water-cooled chillers.

The water-cooled industrial chiller adopts the shell-and-tube condenser, which produces dirt within a certain range, which has little effect on the heat exchange efficiency of the unit, the cleaning cycle is longer, and the relative maintenance cost is also greatly reduced.
