How to clean the fins of an air-cooled chiller
Aug 24, 2021
The air-cooled chiller is a kind of industrial
chiller, and the main working principle is not much different from that of the
water-cooled chiller. Air-cooled chiller is a machine that cools water at room
temperature to a certain temperature through the compressor of the chiller. It
is generally common in industrial manufacturing. However, air-cooled chillers
are widely used, mainly for high-speed electric shafts, electric Spindles, CNC
machine tools, etc. Because the air-cooled chiller has a lightweight structure
and is easy to move quickly, the air-cooled chiller is favored by various
industrial fields.
The heat dissipation fins can also be
called fin condensers or fin coil heat exchanger. They are an important part of
air-cooled chillers for heat dissipation and refrigeration. Its main function
is to cool and condense the superheated steam of the high-temperature chiller
discharged from the refrigeration compressor into a liquid. The refrigerant is
The heat is released from the condenser and the cooling medium is taken away,
so as to ensure the normal and effective operation of the industrial chiller.
However, after the radiating fins are used for a long time, some ash layer or
impurities will be adsorbed on the fin condenser. Only by cleaning the
condenser of the industrial chiller can the efficient use of the industrial
chiller be ensured.
So how to clean the cooling fins (condensers)
of industrial chillers? Oumal Chiller recommends that you can use an air gun to
clean it, but it should be noted that because the fins on the condenser are
thin, the air pressure of the air gun cannot be adjusted too high, otherwise
the condensation will be damaged when the dust is cleaned from finned coil heat
exchanger.
At the same time, when using the cooling
fins of the industrial chiller, pay attention to the maintenance and
maintenance of the cooling fins. The cooling water of the industrial chiller is
regularly replaced to prevent too much scale. Regularly check the pipeline
corrosion of industrial chillers and the tightness of the pipeline to avoid
pipeline blockage and perforation leakage accidents. It is recommended to
purchase a fully enclosed circulating pipeline, which is safer. If your
industrial chiller does not run for a long time, you should remove the water in
the condenser and circulating water pump to avoid freezing the refrigeration
equipment.
During the use of the chiller, cleaning and
maintenance are also particularly important. Regular cleaning and maintenance
can make our air-cooled chillers have a longer life and better cooling effect.
If you buy air cooled chiller unit from
