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.


stainless steel water chiller for food industry


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.

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 Are the Key Requirements for Flooded-Type Heat Exchangers in Air Suspension Chillers

  Air suspension chillers   are crucial in many industrial and commercial applications, and the flooded-type heat exchanger is one of the most important components of these systems. Understanding the requirements of the heat exchanger is essential to ensuring the air suspension units operate efficiently and remain stable. A flooded-type heat exchanger works by transferring heat between two fluids with different temperatures. In air suspension chillers, it helps regulate temperature, optimize energy use, and improve overall performance. For instance, it can transfer heat from high-temperature gases to low-temperature liquids, or vice versa. 1. Material Requirements 1.1 Corrosion Resistance In many industrial environments, fluids can be corrosive. For example, they may come into contact with acidic or alkaline substances. To withstand these conditions, the heat exchanger’s tubes and casing need to be made from corrosion-resistant materials, such as stainless steel. Stainless ste...
