Description
The FT63 contains a reservoir of cooled fluid, which is pumped through the external process to be cooled (eg heat exchanger system).
The cooling fluid can be water or a mixture of glycol and water depending on the output temperature required. This fluid is cooled by the integral refrigeration system.
A high-pressure pump is used to pump the fluid through the process.
A bypass valve facility enables the fluid to be recirculated independently of the process conditions.
Compressor
Reciprocating hermetically sealed compressor with a refrigerant cooled motor.
Evaporator
Packaged coil type, made of copper tubes and aluminium fins.
Condenser
Single air-cooled condenser manufactured from aluminium fins mechanically bonded to refrigeration-grade copper tubes. The condenser fan is of a low-noise axial type. Fan blades are fully enclosed by a safety grill.
Technical specifications
Cooling capacity
The cooling capacity of a chiller is dependent on its operating conditions, particularly the liquid temperature and concentration.
The FT63 has a typical cooling capacity of 2kW with an outlet temperature of 0°C, using a 20% glycol solution (typical FT174X application). For other applications please consult Armfield.
