What is a chiller?

Chiller is a refrigeration unit that is used for air conditioning in large, often industrial-scale rooms. As an industrial cooler, the chiller is able to maintain the temperature level necessary for the uninterrupted operation of the production equipment.
The so-called chiller fancoil system, which makes it possible to establish and regulate the microclimate in several separate rooms, has received the greatest spread to date. The system works in the following way: the chiller cools (heats up) the coolant, which is the antifreeze or water, then feeds it through a special pipeline to the fan coil. Thus, the chiller is able not only to cool, but also to heat the room.
The chiller design provides a built-in or remote condenser, the latter is convenient because it can be carried out of the building, for example, to the roof.
In addition, the chillers differ in the type of cooling of the condenser - water cooling by running water or air cooling by the air flow from the fan.
The chiller fancoil system is of two- and four-pipe execution, based on the number of heat exchangers.
Freon chillers are most often used for air conditioning, but at the same time there are also absorption chillers, the role of freon in them is carried out by water and lithium bromide. In the event that there is a need for strict saving of consumed electricity, it is most reasonable to use the absorption chiller.
