What are the Components of Packaged Water Chiller?

Every Packaged Water Chiller contains the following components: expansion valve, condenser, evaporator, power unit, control units, and a compressor.

These components are also contained in the air Packaged Water Chiller, except for a cooling tower.

Compressor

A compressor is responsible for the movement and distribution of the refrigerant around the entire system.

The compressor is located in between the evaporator and the condenser.

It is insulated and carries an electrical motor which provides the driving force. They can be installed externally or internally.

Condenser

The condenser is found between the expansion valve and the compressor.

The condenser eliminates heat contained in the refrigerant. The heat picked up by the refrigerant happens when it goes through the evaporator.

Water-cooled condensers are installed in Packaged Water Chiller to repeatedly allow condensed water flow between the cooling towers and the condenser.

As the hot refrigerant enters the condenser, the heat absorbed is transferred to the condenser water.

The water goes through the cooling tower before its removal from the Packaged Water Chiller.

Water enters the condenser at about twenty-seven degrees Celsius and exits for the cooling tower at 32°C degrees Celsius.

Expansion Valve

The expansion valves are located between the evaporator and the condenser. It expands the refrigerant while reducing pressure and increasing the volume of the refrigerant.

There are four types of expansion valves, namely.

  • Fixed orifice expansion valve.
  • Electronic expansion valve
  • Pilot operated thermal expansion valve
  • Thermal expansion valve

Evaporator

The evaporator can be found between the compressor and the expansion valve.

It collects the unwanted heat from the equipment or machine and sends it straight to the refrigerant to pass it along for disposal after contacting the cooling tower.

The heat extracted by the refrigerant reduces the temperature of the point of application.

Power Unit

The power unit provides the power required for the running of the System. The Packaged Water Chiller is not manual but electrically operated.

Its power unit is installed internally and consists of a circuit breaker, speed controller, power monitoring equipment, and starter.

Some power units for other types of Packaged Water Chiller can be mounted externally with a series of electrical cables running in-between.

Control Unit

The control unit is placed inside the housing of the Packaged Water Chiller. It monitors the individual performances of the system components to recommend necessary adjustments.

It alarms the monitoring officials of safety and dangerous issues that may constitute severe damages to the entire system.

These alarms help the operators to prevent unexpected system failure

Packaged Water Chiller is better for indoor installations and reduces space consumption. They are operated by electric power and save a lot of cost with the cooling capacity offered per cycle.

Air Cooled Packaged Water Chiller.

If we consider environmental conditions, aesthetics, and aesthetics, we will more likely choose the air-cooled Packaged Water Chiller.

The Air Cooled Packaged Water Chiller utilizes air stream as its medium of heat exchange. Don’t confuse this for the air stream circulated in the cooling tower of a Packaged Water Chiller.

The airstream provided in the latter utilizes a mixture of ambient air, water spray, and air. The Airstream supplied by an air Cooled Packaged Water Chiller is primarily ambient air.

Areas, where Water supply is expensive and not available in large volumes may incur water consumption expenses.

With the advancements in technology, more innovations are currently being carried out on air-cooled Packaged Water Chiller to boost their productivity.

In subsequent years, we might see more air-cooled Packaged Water Chiller with improved noise reduction technology and improved efficiency.

What are the Benefits of Packaged Water Chiller for your Application?

Longer Lifespan

A Packaged Water Chiller has a long lifespan when compared as compared to its alternatives

Packaged Water Chiller installation requires constant replacement due to their exposure to environmental factors such as heat, rain, snow, or ice.

These factors affect the lifespan of every refrigeration system.

Since the Packaged Water Chiller has a protective covering, it isn’t susceptible to frequent damages from environmental forces.

Quiet Operation

Unlike a Packaged Air Chiller, a Packaged Water Chiller is pretty quiet when in operation.

The noise created by its alternatives comes from its ducts and vents.

The expansion and contraction of air circulated produced noise and sounds that are uncomfortable to the ears.

A quiet operation is required in serene environments like schools, hospitals, and private firms.

Energy Efficiency

Packaged Water Chiller has a high-efficiency rating which places them above other temperature maintenance methods. They help you save energy costs and charges.

No Open Space Needed

The external covering of Packaged Water Chiller helps them to be installed indoors and in buildings.

Companies and organizations with less outdoor space prefer installing Packaged Water Chiller.

Air-Cooled Chiller, on the other hand, must be installed in outdoor areas, making them a bad option for minimized space.

Safety

The refrigerants used in Packaged Water Chiller are cheap and safe for the system.

They are not composed of toxic chemicals and don’t harm if accidental contacts are made with them.

How Packaged Water Chiller Operates And Processed?

Every chiller operates on the principle of vapor absorption and vapor compression.

Both processes involve a constant supply of coolants to a desired mechanical system at a temperature of about 10 degrees Celsius.

The circulation of coolants follows a series of operations to extract the heat from the equipment or machine parts before transferring the heat energy to an external source.

Step 1: Refrigeration:

In the process of refrigeration, heat is transferred from the equipment to lower the temperature of the equipment.

Step 2: Evaporation

An evaporator allows mechanical refrigeration during contact with a chilled water stream.

The constant circulation of refrigerants requires the installation of an expansion device, compressor, and condenser.

There is a continued thermodynamic process involved in the circulation of the refrigerant through each of the components.

The evaporator performs a heat exchange function by transferring heat energy from the required mechanical part to the refrigerant.

The heat transfer causes the refrigerant’s evaporation, followed sequentially by transforming the low-pressure liquid into vapor.

Step 3: Compression

The compressor performs several functions, such as transferring the refrigerant from the evaporator at low pressure to ensure that heat is adequately absorbed.

It then raises the refrigerant’s pressure as it leaves the evaporator to enable a complete transfer in the condenser.

At the condenser, the evaporated refrigerant becomes liquid with a release of latent heat into the environment.

Step 4: Condensation

Here, the heat absorbed through the circulation Process is passed on to a cooling medium (Water).

How to Size the Packaged Water Chiller for your Application?

To ascertain the proper Packaged Water Chiller installation, there are certain conditions and inquiries to be made.

The advancements in technology have created more portable and efficient machines.

Before installing any device, we must correctly determine the size required.

  • Determine the heat load. The heat load of the point of application helps you choose a Packaged Water Chiller size large enough to carry out effective temperature regulation.
  • Determine the type of coolant, the required temperature & flow rate.
  • Map out the installation environment. Indoor installations can be used for cooling systems with high temperatures, while outdoor installations may be used for low and ambient temperatures.

You should also consider the location of other fittings such as filters, cooling towers, and sump heaters.

  • Make use of Packaged Water Chiller System performance curves.

How to Maintain your Packaged Water Chiller?

The energy consumed by the Packaged Water Chiller, when not effectively managed, can cause some outrageous costs.

Engineering professionals advise the implementation of specific measures to ensure optimal energy consumption.

The maintenance procedures fall into two categories:

  • Preventive Procedures
  • Predictive procedures

Preventive Maintenance

Step 1

The continued emphasis on efficient energy and temperature regulation has driven several companies and organizations to implement a routine procedure to ensure enhanced Packaged Water Chiller maintenance.

Always inspect and clean the coils of the condenser.

The continued heat transfer between the condenser and other components of the Packaged Water Chiller leaves some debris and blockages on the condenser coils.

These blockages force the consumption of more power by the compressor to carry out its operation.

In the process of time, if not handled properly, it may lead to the breakdown of the entire system.

Maintenance engineers must be careful to look out for minor blockages like these before they accumulate.

Step 2

Regularly recharge the refrigerant—the primary component of every cooling system is the refrigerant.

Never allow the quantity or circulation of your refrigerant to go below-recommended thresholds.

Maintain a constant supply of condenser water.

Debris such as sand, scales, eroded solids, and solids materials can restrict the flow of condenser water—these are constantly cleaned to allow optimum circulation.

Predictive Maintenance

Step 1

The advancements in technology such as artificial intelligence and the internet of things have helped in the practical applications of Packaged Water Chiller.

With modern AI algorithms, we can precisely predict and detect the potential sources of failures in Packaged Water Chiller systems before they occur.

Predictive maintenance involves collecting and analyzing operational data from the Packaged Water Chiller System to determine the action measures before the system breakdown.

Step 2

The prevention of sudden damages in the Packaged Water Chiller system helps to reduce unproductive time and saves you the cost of emergency repairs.

The data collection is made possible by the internet, which allows several AI applications to advise the best measures of control.

As technology advances, we expect a more synthesized communication between AI tools to collect and analyze data from the Packaged Water Chiller.

However, complex systems such as these are still in their formative stages.

How to Troubleshoot Problems and Faults in your Packaged Water Chiller?

Here are some ways to troubleshoot your Packaged Water Chiller to determine the possible sources of operational malfunctioning.

When we troubleshoot, we are looking for problems and faults embedded in the operation of the chiller.

Keep in mind that these are common, but certainly not all the problems can cause a Packaged Water Chiller to go offline. It’s always best to remain up-to-date on chiller technology through training.

All the major Packaged Water Chiller manufacturers offer troubleshooting schools and seminars. All commercial field service technicians should avail themselves of them.

  • Low-pressure trip: This is caused by low refrigerant, clogged water screen and filter, broken power assembly antifreeze, and mud coatings on the evaporator.
  • High-pressure trip: common causes include blockage of the condenser, high water tank temperature, buildup of debris along with the condenser.
  • Oil failure trip: this can be caused by low superheat, damaged pumps, and refrigerant leakages.
  • Freeze stat: This happens when we have Poor water flow and low temperature of the thermostat.
  • Blown fuses or starter trips: You would have this condition when the compressors are over-amped or shorted.

Every single connection must be made appropriately to avoid issues like these.

  • System running but not reaching thermostat set point. When this happens, most likely, the evaporator has been iced up.

It is also caused by the breakdown of antifreeze, causing a low heat exchange. You should try reducing the load imposed on the Packaged Water Chiller.

  • Freeze alarms. Freeze alarms are triggered by failures of the compressor or evaporator.

Once detected, all systems should be tested to pick out the particular component that experiences the fault.

The presence of freeze alarms when not attended to can constitute severe system damages.

  • Dirty condenser. One effective way of knowing that the condenser is dirty is by observing the rate of condensation.
  • Once condensation drops, the accumulation of debris could be responsible.
  • Cleaning should be done by a trained technician who removes the clogs and dirt that have been accumulated.

When the condenser is clean, operating efficiency is now increased.
