Water-Cooled Condenser Chillers

The principle of operation of a chiller with water-cooled condenser

The compressor compresses freon (refrigerant), increasing its pressure and temperature and bringing the refrigerant to a gaseous state. The compressed gas then passes through a condenser, where it is cooled by water from an external source. As a result of the cooling, the gas condenses back into a liquid and releases heat to the water leaving the condenser.

After that, the freon passes through an expansion valve, reducing the pressure and then becoming gaseous in the evaporator. In the process of evaporation, the refrigerant absorbs heat from the coolant (water or glycol solution), thereby cooling it to the desired temperature.

At the end of the cycle, the refrigerant is returned to the compressor, and the process begins again. The water used to cool the freon in the condenser is supplied through a separate water supply system.

Advantages of water-cooled chillers

Water cooling allows the condenser to be cooled quickly and efficiently by using water, which has a higher heat transfer capacity than air. This increases the overall efficiency of the chiller and reduces the load on the compressor.

• Operation in a wider temperature range, including high temperatures in summer.

• Can be cooled to lower temperatures.

Disadvantages of water-cooled chillers

• Higher initial investment. First, it is the higher cost of the necessary equipment. Second, there are relatively high installation costs. The need to install additional equipment such as pumps, flow meters and pipelines increases the overall cost.

• Water use is the same cost item as electricity, which makes the operation of such a chiller more expensive.

• If the piping or connections used for water cooling are damaged, other equipment in the building may be damaged.

• Equipment maintenance is more expensive and time-consuming due to its greater complexity.

In general, water-cooled condenser chillers have several disadvantages that must be considered when selecting a cooling system. However, modern technology and precautions can reduce the risks associated with using such systems.

Catalog of water chillers

In our catalog, you can familiarize yourself with different series of chillers and learn more about the characteristics of each model. If you need help in choosing such equipment, we are always happy to help you, because it is important that the chiller meets your requirements as much as possible. The manager of Dalgakiran Compressor Ukraine LLC will provide you with competent advice on the type and cost of the product, as well as select the most appropriate chiller model for your needs.

We offer RWE chillers, including single and tandem chillers, as well as Carrier 19XR/XRV water-cooled chillers.

Our product range includes models for both small and medium-sized air conditioning systems, different temperature conditions and capacities. Depending on the tasks you set for the chiller, you can choose the option with the required characteristics. You can purchase equipment with different cooling capacities, decide on the number of scroll processors, choose an evaporator, water-cooled condenser, pump power, etc.

In addition, water chillers can have different prices. The equipment and features of the chiller affect how much it costs. Each buyer has the opportunity to choose exactly the model that will meet your financial capabilities.

Characteristics of water-cooled chillers

RWE water chillers are perfect for indoor installation and will not take up much space due to their compact size. They can be ordered with delivery in Kyiv or across Ukraine by selecting the required type of freon. They have the following characteristics:

1. Cooling from 6 to 87 kW.
2. Conditions: evaporator water temperature 7/12°C; condenser temperature 30/35°C.
3. Freon to choose from.

RWE chillers are also available in single and tandem versions. They can also be a great alternative to standard RWE models, as they offer quite powerful functionality despite their size:

1. Cooling from 393 to 36 kW – 1 and 2 circuits.
2. Nominal conditions: evaporator water temperature 7/12°C; condenser temperature 30/35°C
3. Freon R407C – R134A.

The Carrier 19XR/XRV water chillers are equipment used for serious production facilities. These models can be equipped with different types of compressors, which determines their capabilities and price. The parameters are as follows:

1. Cooling up to 12000 kW.
2. Choice between screw compressors and geometric centrifugal compressors.
3. A large number of additional benefits.

With Dalgakiran, the possibilities are unlimited – order only proven products at a favorable price! We work not only in Kyiv, but also deliver equipment throughout Ukraine.

What to look for when buying

When purchasing a water chiller, be sure to consider the specifics of the room where the equipment will be installed. Calculate the optimal capacity and create a list of requirements that the device must meet. We remind you that before ordering, you can contact our consultant and get the necessary advice, ask how much a particular model costs, how installation work will be organized, how delivery will be carried out, and ask other relevant questions.
