An
Air Cooled Industrial Chiller is a machine that removes heat from a liquid via a vapor-compression cycle. Air cooled chillers are directly cooled by ambient air being mechanically circulated directly through the machine's condenser coil to expel heat to the atmosphere.
The two types of air cooled chillers are
scroll compressor air cooled chillers and screw compressor air cooled chillers. Scroll compressors are used for the smaller air cooled chillers, and screw compressors are used for larger air cooled chillers and have a variable speed drive option for increased efficiency.
Here's a detailed comparison table between scroll compressor air-cooled chillers and screw compressor air-cooled chillers:
Feature | Scroll Compressor Air-Cooled Chillers | Screw Compressor Air-Cooled Chillers |
Compression Technology | Scroll | Screw |
Cooling Capacity Range | Typically up to 200 tons | Typically above 200 tons |
Efficiency | High | Moderate to High |
Part Load Performance | Good | Good to Excellent |
Full Load Performance | Good | Excellent |
Size | Compact | Larger |
Noise Level | Low to Moderate | Moderate to High |
Vibration | Low | Moderate to High |
Maintenance | Simple and Easy | Complex and Higher Cost |
Cost | Lower | Higher |
Applications | Small to Medium-Sized Buildings | Medium to Large-Sized Buildings |
Control and Modulation | Limited Modulation | Wide Modulation Range |
Environmental Impact | Lower | Higher |
Note: The comparison table provides general information and may vary depending on specific manufacturers and models of chillers. It's always recommended to consult with manufacturers or Huazhao professionals to determine the best chiller option for your specific application.
Scroll Type Chiller Features:1. Scroll compressor for modle 12-180kw, semi-hermetic screw compressor for modle 130-2300kw. Each compressor is equipped with a crankcase heater and a thermal overload cut-out; the screw compressor is also complete with a built-in electronic protection with temperature sensor located directly in the motor winding and on the discharge line.
2. External rotor type axial fans, equipped with three phase direct drive motors, low noise 8 poles, protection level IP54, provided with a protective outlet grille.
Evaporator built with high efficiency shell and tube type heat exchanger, factory insulated with flexible close cell material.
3. Air Cooled Scroll Water Chiller built with seamless copper tubes mechanically expanded into blue hydrophilic aluminum fins.
4. Refrigerant circuit complete with charge valves, filter drier, sight glass, gas-liquid separator, thermostatic expansion valve, high & low pressure switch. The heat pump unit is completed also with 4-way valve, liquid receiver and one way valve.
5. Hydraulic circuit built with galvanized pipe, complete with water discharge connection for shell and tube heat exchanger and flange type hydraulic connectors.
6. Electric panel consist of: Compressor contactor, fan motor contactor, compressor isolating switch, fan protection breaker, phase sequence relay and microprocessor with function display.
7. Automatic operation dramatically reducing maintenance cost thanks to reliable microprocessor system.
