How to choose the right chiller in the food industry---CHILLER FOR FOOD INDUSTRY

The application of chillers is very wide, including plastic industry, chemical industry, packaging industry, printing industry, food industry, etc. Today we will talk about how to choose chillers in the food industry. The water chiller used in the food industry needs to be used for rapid cooling of all kinds of food after heating, so that it can be suitable for canning and bottling requirements. In addition, various fermented foods require different cooling temperatures to stabilize fermentation needs and improve fermented products. To ensure the quality of fermentation, it is also used in the pharmaceutical, chemical industry, and refrigeration equipment.

When choosing a chiller in the food industry, first consider the temperature of the chilled water required in the process, whether to use a medium-temperature chiller or a low-temperature chiller, and secondly, consider whether the cooling water needs to be in direct contact with the food? If it is to directly cool food, the place where the material of the chiller contacts water must be stainless steel or PVC. If it is to cool food indirectly, use an ordinary industrial chiller. In addition, add a detachable plate heat exchanger. If the temperature is lower than 5 degrees, the chiller is a low-temperature chiller, and ethylene glycol needs to be added to the cooling water. The chiller must indirectly cool the food. Another factor to consider in the chiller industry is the shell sheet metal of the chiller. Customers will require stainless steel sheet metal to make the chiller's chassis for easy cleaning. Therefore, when we select food chillers for customers, we must first understand the process flow, temperature and material requirements. The price of stainless steel chillers is slightly higher than that of ordinary chillers. So you can choose the appropriate chiller according to your needs and budget.

If you need a food processing chiller cooling system, please contact us. OUMAL Refrigeration has a professional technical team to customize your own industry chiller for your cooling water system. The price of OUMAL chiller is favorable, welcome to inquire.

Avoid Downtime, Cut Costs: Smart Maintenance for Smarter Chillers

Screw water-cooled chillers typically operate around 3,000 hours per year, depending on China's climate and geographical conditions. Regular and scientific maintenance is crucial to ensure long-term, reliable operation, extend the lifespan, and reduce operating costs. Maintenance and Upkeep Preventive maintenance during operation and inspection involves creating annual and monthly maintenance plans based on actual operating conditions. Shutdown Procedures In winter, clean and dry the unit. Open the drain valve to empty the shell-and-tube heat exchanger to avoid freezing. The shutdown sequence is: chiller off - cooling tower fan off - cooling water pump off - chilled water pump off. Special attention to anti-freezing: 1. Drain the evaporator and condenser if the unit is outdoors below 0°C during standby. 2. Interlock the water flow switch with the unit to prevent freezing when the chilled water flow switch malfunctions. 3. Ensure water in the evaporator is flowi...

What are the differences between air-cooled chillers and water-cooled chillers | Oumalchiller.com

We all know that according to different heat dissipation methods, chillers can be divided into air-cooled chillers and water-cooled chillers. What is the difference between air-cooled chillers and water-cooled chillers? 1. The air-cooled chiller uses copper tubes and aluminum fins to dissipate heat from the condenser. A fan is required to blow the outdoor air through the heat exchange fins and take away the heat of the condenser, so the air-cooled chiller does not need to be connected to the cooling tower. But compared with water-cooled chillers, under the same power, air-cooled chillers have larger equipment size and higher noise. The condenser of water-cooled chillers exchanges heat with the cooling water from the cooling tower through the heat exchanger. The excess waste heat will be transported to the cooling tower through the cooling water loop and released into the atmosphere, or enter the water-water heat exchanger or soil heat exchange coil for storage. Ther...

What is difference between centrifugal chiller and screw chillers?

Water Chillers are generally divided into the following categories: screw chillers, centrifugal chillers, water ring heat pump units, plate and tube evaporative condensing screw chillers, thermal storage air conditioners, etc. Screw chiller and centrifugal chiller are equipment that we often encounter. Below, Oumal Refrigeration will take you to understand the difference between centrifugal chiller and screw chiller? What is a screw chiller ? The compressor adopts a screw type, hence the name screw chiller. The refrigerant coming out of the evaporator of the unit is a gas; after adiabatic compression by the compressor, it becomes a high-temperature and high-pressure state. The compressed gas refrigerant is isobarically cooled and condensed in the condenser. After condensation, it changes into liquid refrigerant, and then expands to low pressure through the throttle valve and becomes a gas-liquid mixture. The liquid refrigerant under low temperature and low pressu...
