Causes of Water Leakage in Industrial Chillers

Causes of Water Leakage in Industrial Chillers

The water circulation system of the chiller is composed of the water inlet pipe, the evaporator, the water outlet pipe, the water tank, the chilled water pump, the cooling water pump, the condenser, and the pipes and valves at the joints. The above-mentioned parts are basically indispensable for water leakage faults. Let’s look at the solution to the water leakage of the chiller Way.

1. Water leakage at the water inlet and outlet of the chiller is usually caused by loose or broken bolts at the joint, which can be repaired or replaced;

2. The evaporator shell of the chiller is leaking. Check whether there is water seepage at the welding part of the evaporator shell. If so, repair it by welding as soon as possible;

3. There is water leakage at the float valve of the chiller. The float valve controls the water inlet valve switch according to the buoyancy. The solution is to check and adjust the position of the ball valve. If it is damaged, it should be replaced and repaired in time.

4. Water leakage occurs due to the perforation of the condenser inside the chiller. The solution is to find and repair this fault point;

5. Due to the water filling in the water tank of the chiller is too full, the cooling water fluctuates and leaks during operation. The solution is to reduce the water level in the water tank;

6. The water tank of the chiller is leaking, which may be due to the corrosion of the welding position of the water tank, causing leakage, and re-welding maintenance is required;

7. Water leakage occurs at the water pump of the chiller. Generally, the shaft seal at the water pump is not well connected or damaged. Just replace the shaft seal of the water pump;

8. Long-term tilting of the chiller will cause uneven force on the valves and pipes of the chiller, damage, and water leakage. The chiller should be placed horizontally in accordance with the specifications. If the chiller leaks slightly, it should follow the water trace Look for the water leakage point of the unit. If the water leakage of the chiller occurs in the water cooling system, it will cause failures such as insufficient water flow and high pressure alarm of the compressor. components pose potential safety hazards. Therefore, once the water leakage of the chiller is found, it should be paid attention to and repaired in time.
