What is 100 Ton Chiller in Facilities Management?

Introduction

A 100-ton chiller is a large piece of machinery that’s used to cool down water. It’s often found in large buildings like warehouses and factories where there are lots of machines running all the time, but they also appear at hospitals, schools, malls and other public places.

A chiller is a mechanical device that cools down fluids such as water or refrigerant. It works by compressing refrigerant under high pressure and then passing it through an expansion valve, which allows it to evaporate at a lower temperature than it would naturally.

Chillers are used in many industries for cooling purposes including:

The chiller then circulates the cooled refrigerant back into the building through pipes as part of an air conditioning system.

A chiller is a device that uses refrigeration to chill water or other liquids to a temperature lower than ambient. The cooling effect can be used for air conditioning, refrigeration and heat pumps. A chiller may be an electric machine, a diesel-powered engine-driven device or sometimes both; this depends on whether it needs power to operate and how much power it requires at different operating states (on/off).

A typical chiller circuit consists of an evaporator which absorbs heat from its surroundings, an expansion valve (also known as an expansion coil), usually located near the evaporator which controls flow through it by regulating pressure drop across itself, together with piping between them containing refrigerant at high pressure – usually around 35 bar in modern systems – but low temperature; this causes some liquid molecules within this mixture to evaporate into gas form while others remain as liquid mixtures inside pipes where they circulate towards one end while more are added at other locations along these same pipelines so there’ll always be enough present throughout both sides of any given cycle regardless where you start measuring from because each part contains both types simultaneously dissolved within solution until such time as you switch off power supply completely stopping all activity including evaporation/condensation processes taking place within any given system altogether!

There are many types of chillers available on the market today, including absorption chillers and compressor-based refrigeration systems.

1 ton = 12,000 BTU/hr

You can think of 1 ton as 12,000 BTU/hr. This means that 100 tons of chiller would be enough to cool a building with 100,000 square feet of floor space for one hour.

If you have a million square feet of floor space (about 93 football fields), then you will need about 1000 tons of chillers to provide cooling during peak hours when it gets hot outside!

100 tons of chiller means that you need about 100,000 BTU for one hour

A 100-ton chiller is a lot of cooling power. It will use about 100,000 BTUs per hour to keep your facility cool, which is enough energy to power two houses for an entire day.

That’s a lot of energy! In fact, it’s more than some residential homes use in a year. But what does that mean? How does this compare to other types of cooling systems?

Conclusion

In conclusion, a 100 ton chiller is a device used to cool down water or refrigerant. It works by compressing refrigerant under high pressure and then passing it through an expansion valve, which allows it to evaporate at a lower temperature than it would naturally. The chiller then circulates the cooled refrigerant back into the building through pipes as part of an air conditioning system.
