What are the components of an industrial chiller?

Components of industrial chillers:
1. Compressor
The core part of an industrial chiller is the compressor, which acts as the "heart" of the entire system. The compressor is responsible for sucking in low-temperature and low-pressure refrigerant, which is compressed into high-temperature and high-pressure gas, providing power for the refrigeration cycle. The performance and efficiency of compressors directly affect the refrigeration capacity and stability of industrial chillers.

2. Condenser
The condenser is another important part of an industrial chiller, which is responsible for cooling the high-temperature and high-pressure gas discharged by the compressor into a high-pressure liquid. The condenser is usually air-cooled or water-cooled, and the heat is dissipated into the air or water through heat dissipation fins to ensure stable condensation of the refrigerant.

3. Evaporator
The evaporator is the place where the refrigerant in an industrial chiller completes the heat absorption process. The refrigerant absorbs the heat of the cooled object in the evaporator, thereby achieving a cooling effect. Evaporators usually come into direct contact with the cooled object to ensure efficient heat exchange.

4. Expansion valve or capillary tube
Expansion valve or capillary tube, which plays a role in regulating the refrigerant flow rate. The expansion valve can accurately control the refrigerant flow rate according to the refrigeration demand and system pressure changes, thereby maintaining the stable operation of the industrial chiller system.
