Chillers & Coolers

Industrial chillers are refrigeration systems used to cool or maintain the temperature of a food manufacturing facility process or space. It removes heat through a refrigeration cycle using a compressor, condenser, expansion valve, and evaporator.

Industrial coolers are designed to maintain lower temperatures in specific areas or equipment within a food manufacturing facility. These cooling systems remove heat from the target area, typically using a direct expansion or evaporative cooling process.

Here are a few types of chillers commonly used in food manufacturing that we offer:
• Air-Cooled Chillers: Air-cooled chillers are a common industrial chiller that uses ambient air to dissipate heat. Using a condenser coil and fans, these chillers transfer heat from the refrigerant to the surrounding air. Air-cooled chillers are suitable for smaller to mid-sized food manufacturing operations with sufficient space for outdoor installation. They are known for their ease of installation and lower water consumption.
• Water-Cooled Chillers: Water-cooled chillers use water as a heat exchange medium. Using a condenser to transfer heat to a separate water loop, these chillers then release the water into a cooler tower or a type of water disposal system. Water-cooled chillers are ideal for larger food manufacturing facilities where water availability is not a concern. They offer high efficiency and can handle larger cooling loads.
• Rotary Liquid Chiller: Rotary liquid chillers, or rotary screw chillers, operate using a rotary screw compressor. They use a liquid refrigerant to absorb and remove heat from the manufacturing process and are known for their efficiency and reliability. These industrial chillers are suitable for medium to large-scale food manufacturing, requiring consistent and reliable cooling solutions.
• Freon Liquid Chiller: This type of chiller uses refrigerants like hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs) or hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) to cool. These chillers are versatile and commonly used in industrial applications due to the wide range of refrigerants.
• Centrifugal Liquid Chiller: These liquid chillers use a centrifugal compressor to compress the refrigerant gas. They are highly efficient and suitable for large cooling loads. This type of chiller is typically used in large-scale manufacturing where high-capacity cooling and precise temperature control are needed.

Industrial coolers help preserve food quality by maintaining optimal temperatures in processing and storage areas, preventing spoilage, and slowing down the growth of bacteria and other microorganisms that can affect the quality of food products.

Coolers are often used to maintain lower temperatures in specific areas or equipment within a food manufacturing facility. They may use different technologies, such as direct expansion or evaporative cooling, to achieve the desired cooling effect without needing a complete refrigeration cycle.

Large-scale food manufacturing facilities often have complex cooling needs to ensure the quality, safety, and efficiency of their processes. Coolers play a crucial role in meeting these requirements.

Chillers have special cooling capacities to handle the substantial heat loads generated during various food processing stages. In large-scale facilities, industrial chillers cool different zones with various cooling requirements. The advanced control systems allow for precise temperature control in each zone, ensuring that each zone receives the appropriate level of cooling.

Zoning and temperature control are crucial for maintaining product quality, complying with food safety regulations, and optimizing energy efficiency in extensive food manufacturing.
