2 TR Air Cooled Process Chiller

Product Description

A 2 TR (2 ton) air-cooled process chiller isa refrigeration system that removes heat from a process or space using ambient air.It's typically used for smaller to medium-sized cooling needs in various applications, from industrial processes to HVAC systems.The "2 TR" refers to a cooling capacity of 24,000 BTUs per hour, equivalent to 2 tons of refrigeration.

Here's a more detailed description:

Key Features:

• Cooling Capacity:24,000 BTUs per hour (2 TR).
• Air-Cooled:Heat is rejected to the surrounding air, eliminating the need for a cooling tower.
• Compact Size:Generally smaller and more space-efficient than water-cooled chillers.
• Refrigerant:Utilizes a refrigerant to transfer heat from the process fluid to the air.
• Components:Includes a compressor, condenser, expansion valve, and evaporator, similar to other refrigeration systems.
• Applications:Widely used in plastic molding, food processing, pharmaceutical production, data centers, and commercial buildings.

Working Principle:

1. 1.Refrigerant Compression:

A compressor increases the pressure and temperature of the refrigerant.

2. 2.Heat Rejection:

The high-pressure refrigerant passes through a condenser, where heat is transferred to the air via a fan and fins.

3. 3.Pressure Reduction:

The refrigerant then passes through an expansion valve, which lowers its pressure and temperature.

4. 4.Heat Absorption:

The low-pressure refrigerant flows through the evaporator, where it absorbs heat from the process fluid, cooling it down.

5. 5.Circulation:

The cooled process fluid is then circulated back to the process or space needing cooling.

Benefits:

• Space Efficiency:

Air-cooled chillers are smaller and require less space than water-cooled systems.

• Ease of Installation:

Simpler installation compared to water-cooled systems, as they don't require a cooling tower.

• Lower Initial Cost:

Generally more affordable than water-cooled systems.

• Reduced Maintenance:

Air-cooled systems may have lower maintenance requirements compared to water-cooled systems with cooling towers.
