Commercial Water Cooled Equipment and Chillers
Maintaining a consistent and comfortable temperature within your commercial building is crucial. So important for employee and customer comfort, and also for the proper functioning of heat-sensitive equipment. Commercial water-cooled equipment and chillers are the most powerful and efficient options to regulate temperature in a variety of applications.
Many commercial machines generate a lot of heat. This heat can come from lasers, CNC machines, MRI machines, and even large computer servers. Water-cooled equipment uses water as a coolant to absorb this heat and maintain safe operating temperatures.
A chiller is essentially a giant heat exchanger. It takes warm water from the equipment it's cooling and removes heat through a refrigeration cycle. The chilled water is then circulated back to the equipment to absorb more heat.
Chillers offer very precise temperature control, which is critical for many sensitive commercial applications . Water is a much more efficient coolant than air, so chillers can significantly reduce energy consumption compared to traditional air-cooled systems. Chillers are also much quieter in operation, and can be scaled to meet the specific needs of a facility. Multiple chillers can be used to create a redundant system for added reliability.
Types of Chillers
There are two main types of commercial chillers:
- Air-cooled chillers: These chillers use air to expel heat from the refrigerant cycle. They are typically a good choice for smaller applications.
- Water-cooled chillers: These chillers use water from a cooling tower or another source to expel heat. They are more efficient than air-cooled chillers and are a good choice for larger applications.
