Why does the chiller evaporator freeze | www.oumalchiller.com

 During the use of the chiller, sometimes freezing occurs, and the chilled water malfunctions and alarms. The evaporator is one of the four core components of the chiller, and its importance is self-evident. Once it fails, the chiller will also go on strike. Today we will talk about the more common evaporator failures, namely Icing, to analyze the cause and find a solution. Why does the chiller freeze? How to eliminate the icing failure of the evaporator?


1. Look at the type of chiller, whether it is a low-temperature Chiller machine or a room temperature chiller machine.


low temperature chiller


For low-temperature chillers, use antifreeze instead of water. Such as Glycol.

A normal temperature chiller uses water for circulation. The temperature of this chiller is generally set at 5 degrees. The factory has set it before leaving the factory. Of course, you can set it yourself. If the temperature is too low, it will freeze. If the temperature of the medium and high temperature chiller is lower than 5 degrees without adding antifreeze, it is easy to cause the evaporator to freeze and cause the chilled water failure alarm.


2. See if the chiller is installed with a temperature sensor

The temperature probe will work in coordination with the control board. When the temperature is too low, the temperature probe will tell the main board that the main board will sound an alarm and stop automatically, so there will be no icing.


3. Insufficient refrigerant

During the use of the chiller, refrigerant leakage or blockage will occur. After the refrigerant is reduced, the evaporation pressure will be too low, causing the evaporator to freeze. The location of the icing is sometimes in the evaporator. If the refrigerant leaks, The method of elimination is to deal with the leaking part first, add enough refrigerant, and the fault will be eliminated. If the expansion valve is blocked, replace the expansion valve with a new one.

How to design a water chiller system with AHU for pharmaceutical factory workshop | Hstarschiller.com

  Nowadays, it’s become more and more aware of pharmaceutical enterprises to realize the significance of building an efficient and green to environment cooling system in the factory, because it can not only help the owner to save the running cost but also contribute to the society by reducing the emissions, especially for those developed countries . But how to design a simple but energy saving cooling system with clean workshop? Below we are going to give you a real case for your reference to help you understand well, especially for those are quite new to the water chiller system field. Firstly,this project has been done by  H.Stars Group  ,including the system design,equipment manufacturing and installation etc. Below is the detailed project overview to help you understand the owner’s requirement . Project address: one of the pharmaceutical factories located in China Project desire: Requesting a constant temperature with humidity for oral solid preparation workshop Proje...

Where are water-cooled chillers used? What is a chiller used for?

  Water-cooled chiller   is a cooling water device that can provide constant temperature, constant current and constant pressure. A chiller is a machine that achieves refrigeration through vapor compression or absorption cycles. These liquids can flow through heat exchangers to cool the air or equipment. The industrial chiller can always output ice water with a lower temperature than the ambient temperature. It can be used wherever cooling is required, either direct cooling or indirect heat exchange. The main components of a water-cooled chiller are compressor, condenser, evaporator, water pump, and water tank. Chillers have a wide range of applications. The chiller can be used to cool the injection mold, improve the quality of plastic products, cool the vacuum coating, control the temperature of the vacuum coating machine, cool the food industry, fast cooling processing, chemical industry, effectively control the temperature of chemicals, cooling buildings, concrete fast Cool...

How is the Refrigeration Industry Leading the Green Development with R404A

  As global environmental concerns continue to rise, the refrigeration industry is undergoing a significant transformation. Water-cooled low-temperature units exported overseas are now increasingly adopting the eco-friendly refrigerant R404A, leading the way in the industry's green development. Here's a deeper look into this trend. Why Is R404A Becoming the Preferred Refrigerant for  Water-Cooled Low-Temperature Units ? R404A is a blend of refrigerants that stands out due to its environmentally friendly properties. It is free from Ozone Depleting Potential (ODP) and has a relatively low Global Warming Potential (GWP), making it an ideal substitute for traditional refrigerants. This balance between high-performance cooling and environmental friendliness has made R404A especially popular in regions with strict environmental regulations, such as Europe and North America. Water-cooled low-temperature units exported to these areas are now commonly equipped with R404A to meet local ...
