Industrial Chillers: Air- vs Water-Cooled
The temperature can have a significant impact on how well industrial processes work. Examples include the fermentation of beer, the application of packaging adhesives, and liquid reactions in biomedicine. The equipment itself may become damaged as a result of excessive heat. All of these devices—lasers, printers, conventional chip cutting apparatus, and welders—need cooling to function properly.Rapid temperature changes used in manufacturing can make it difficult to maintain efficiency because t

Chiller Surge Prevention
Chiller surge occurs when refrigerant rushes backwards from the condenser to the compressor, causing serious damage to the system. As a result, it begins to flow backwards through the discharge line and into the compressor. Because the compressor's purpose is to pump refrigerant into the discharge line and into the condenser, it will continue to revolve. The refrigerant will flow back through the impeller blades and out through the suction line into the evaporator since the pressure is alre
