Air Cooled Water Chillers

Air cooled water chillers are an important component of many commercial and industrial cooling systems. They are used to cool water and other liquids, such as glycol, to a specific temperature. Air cooled water chillers are made up of a compressor, condenser, evaporator, and expansion valve. The compressor compresses the refrigerant, which is then sent to the condenser. The condenser is a heat exchanger that uses air to cool the refrigerant. The cooled refrigerant is then sent to the evaporator, where it absorbs heat from the water or other liquid. The heated refrigerant is then sent to the expansion valve, where it is reduced in pressure and cooled. The cooled refrigerant is then sent back to the compressor to start the cycle again. Air cooled water chillers are an efficient and cost-effective way to cool liquids and are used in many commercial and industrial applications.
