Centralized systems based on individual temperature control of each consumer

Centralized systems based on individual temperature control of each consumer.

This cooling circuit is specifically designed for systems where independent temperature control is required for each consumer:

  • The thermal controller is installed for each cold consumer to provide independent temperature control and water flow;
  • The MINIBOX water-cooled chillers are installed next to each unit of the process equipment requiring cooling;
  • The MINIBOX water-cooled chillers can be used for both cooling and thermostating, with one or two independent circuits;
  • A centralized free cooling system with a dry cooling tower cools the MINIBOX chiller / thermal chiller condensers, thermostat heat exchangers, and hydraulic equipment drives.

Advantages:

  • Maximum flexibility in adjusting the temperatures and flow through the consumer;
  • Precise temperature control;
  • Absence of marriage in the production process due to the precision of the technology;
  • Optimizing cycle times and increasing productivity;
  • Higher energy efficiency compared to one and two contour centralized systems;
  • A simpler scheme of pipelines - is lower manufacturing costs;

These central systems can easily be upgraded with the expansion of production and improved, by adding water-cooled MINIBOX thermo-chillers and thermal controllers as the fleet of equipment increases.

Each individual cooling unit can be equipped with a power saving system.

Free cooling mode for low-temperature circuit (cooling of molds)

The free-cooler automatically switches to a lower temperature when the ambient temperature allows it (air temperature is 5 ° C less than the outlet water temperature) and provides pre-cooling of the water / glycol solution in its heat exchangers to reduce the working time of the MINIBOX water-cooled chillers / thermochillers, this function energy saving can be realized in 2 variants:

  • energy saving by direct addition up the water from the free-cooler circuit to the cooling circuit of the molds,
  • energy saving achieved by cooling the contour of the mold through the heat exchanger, in this case the fluids from the mold of the free-cooler and the molds are not mixed - it is optimal when the solution of water with glycol is not allowed to enter the mold contour;

The free-cooler is always installed outdoors and has two options:

  • glycol-free version - FCE with water draining system,
  • free-coolers requiring the use of a glycol solution to avoid freezing at temperatures of 0 ° C and lower.

Advantages: energy saving,

Freecooler does not have compressors and it provides cooling of water / water with glycol, only due to low ambient temperatures.
