Chillers

Chillers are crucial industrial machines used to remove heat from a liquid via a vapor-compression or absorption refrigeration cycle. The chilled liquid is then circulated through heat exchangers to cool machinery, products, or facilities.

A chiller is a cooling system that removes heat from a process or space and transfers it elsewhere. Commonly used in HVAC systems, industrial processing, plastic manufacturing, and food and beverage sectors.

Types of Chillers

By Technology

Air-Cooled Chillers – Use ambient air to dissipate heat.

Water-Cooled Chillers – Use water from a cooling tower to reject heat.

Absorption Chillers – Use heat as energy input, often for waste heat recovery.

By Material

Steel Body Chillers – Strong, durable, and widely used.

Aluminum Chillers – Lightweight but less durable.

Copper Tube Chillers – Excellent thermal conductivity.

Applications in Various Industries

Plastic Industry – Injection molding cooling.

Pharmaceutical Industry – Temperature-controlled processing.

HVAC Systems – Commercial and industrial buildings.

Food & Beverage – Cooling in bottling and storage.

Laser and Welding Machines – Thermal control.

Material Selection Considerations

  • Corrosion Resistance – Especially for water-contact parts.
  • Heat Conductivity – For faster cooling efficiency.
  • Durability & Maintenance – Material should resist scaling and thermal stress.
