What are the Three Types of Chillers?

Chiller is an energy-saving machine that achieves cooling effect through vapor compression or absorption cycle. This chiller is called a cooling water cycle machine, also known as a cooler, etc. At present, there are mainly air-cooled chillers, water-cooled chillers, and screw chillers on the market.

First of all, we must distinguish the types of chillers: general chillers are divided into water-cooled and air-cooled.

Air-cooled chiller, equipped with water tank and water pump, without cooling tower for heat dissipation. Easy to install and move. However, the requirements for the environment are very high, first of all because it is cooled by hot air circulation, so if the ventilation effect of the installation workshop is not good, it will directly affect the cooling effect of the chiller.

In addition, if you want to put the chiller in a dust-free room that requires high humidity, a lot of water vapor will be generated on the top of the machine.

Water-cooled chillers are divided into open water-cooled chillers, sealed (some are called box-type water coolers) and screw-type water chillers. Water-cooled chillers need to add cooling towers and water pumps to achieve better cooling effects.

The open chiller has an additional water tank installed, and the sealed type does not need it because it has a built-in water tank. The open style is generally installed outside the workshop and is easy to maintain, but because it is not beautiful enough, a sealed water-cooled chiller has been produced. The sealed water-cooled chiller is a box-type structure, which is easy to install and use.
