How to deal with the high pressure failure of water cooled screw chiller

2025-06-20

Water cooled screw chiller is a water to water chiller which compressor use semi-hermetic screw type. It’s high efficient water chiller system. The cooling water system including a water cooled screw chiller, a cooling tower, a water tank, and 3 water pumps. Water cooled screw chiller is widely used in the industrial cooling system. High pressure failure of the water cooled screw chiller is the common failure when it working. While how to deal with the high pressure failure of the water cooled screw chillers. Blow let’s talk with the Possible causes and solutions of the high pressure.


1. The temperature of the chiller is too high and the condensing effect is not good. The rated working temperature of the cooling water required by the water-cooled screw chiller is 30℃-35℃. The high water temperature and poor heat dissipation will inevitably lead to excessive condenser pressure. Occurs in the high temperature season, the reason for the high water temperature may be: cooling tower failure, such as the fan is not turned on or even reversed, the water distributor does not rotate, it turns into the high temperature of the cooling water, and rises rapidly, the external temperature is high, the water path is short, and the recyclable water is less If the cooling water temperature has been maintained at a high level, it can be solved by adding a storage tank.


2. The cooling water flow is not enough to reach the rated water flow. The main performance is that the pressure difference between the inlet and the outlet of the unit is reduced (compared to the pressure difference at the beginning of the system operation), and the temperature increases. The reason for the insufficient water flow is the system Lack of water or air. The solution is to install an exhaust valve at the height of the exhaust pipe. The pipe filter is blocked or selected too fine, and the permeability is restricted. The appropriate filter should be selected and the filter screen should be cleaned regularly. The water pump is very small. The system does not match.


water cooled screw chiller application


3. Scaling or clogging of the condenser of the screw chiller. Tap water is generally used for condensate, which is prone to scaling when the temperature is higher than 30°C. Moreover, because the cooling tower is open and directly exposed to the air, dust and foreign objects can easily enter the cooling water system, causing dirt to block the condenser, small heat exchange area, low efficiency, and affecting water flow. Its performance is that the pressure difference and temperature between the inlet and outlet of the unit become larger, making the condenser temperature very high, and the copper pipe at the condenser outlet is hot. The equipment should be backwashed regularly, and chemical cleaning and descaling should be carried out when necessary.

How to select the cooling water system for the plastic extruder machine?

2025-06-20

The chiller for cooling the plastic extruder machine is called a plastic extrusion chiller. Since the extruder machine is mainly used for various extruded plastic products, such as PE, PP, PVC, ABS, etc., the high temperature generated during the production process will cause difficult demolding and slow molding, so a industrial water chiller is required to provide low-temperature  circulation Cooling Water (5-30°C) is fed to the extrusion production line to shorten the cooling time and improve product quality.

 plastic extrusion chiller

What are the products produced by the extruder? For example, rigid pipes, hoses, profiles, glue sticks, automotive glass sealing strips, cables, corrugated pipes, packaging bags, door and window sealing strips, etc. These products are common in our daily lives. Can you imagine how they are produced Come out? Closer to home, what points should be paid attention to when choosing a chiller for the extruder machine ?

 

1. Customers who make pipes are best to have their own pool, so that when the temperature is low enough in winter, you can use the cooling water in the pool to meet the requirements of the production process.

2. Customers who make pipes generally use an extruder, and the extruder will have an open water tank, so when choosing a chiller, you should generally choose a shell and tube evaporator, so that the water can circulate, of course. There will be some special situations, which all depend on the situation on the spot.

3. When the extruder extrudes the pipe, it will emit a lot of heat in a short time, so when choosing a chiller, choose a relatively large one

4. But the temperature of the chiller is not as low as possible. Generally, the temperature of 10-15 degrees is better.

5. When choosing a chiller, it is best to know the temperature of your sink, the amount of water used per hour, and the temperature of the return water, so that you can be more prepared to choose your own chiller

6. The extruder is equipped with a water chiller because there will be pools and water cooling towers, so water-cooled chillers are generally used. ,

 

Many extruders choose to use chillers for cooling and cooling, and the effect is more stable than external circulating water. When selecting the chiller for the extruder, it can be calculated by this method: the production capacity of the extruder KG/h*165=Kcal (kcal)

The requirements of industrial chillers for the performance of antifreeze and the choice of antifreeze

2025-06-20

Industrial chiller is a kind of high-efficiency refrigeration equipment widely used in industrial production. It can provide great help for various industrial productions. However, if the antifreeze position of the low-temperature chiller has dropped, it needs to be dealt with in time. In order not to affect the stable operation of the equipment, or even reduce the overall cooling performance of the equipment, to increase the antifreeze capacity of the low-temperature chiller in low-temperature areas requires the following skills


1. For the screw chiller, the amount of antifreeze is not the better, and when adding, the overall concentration of the antifreeze can be reduced, and the best filling effect can be obtained. The lower the concentration, the smallest range of influence on the screw chiller during operation. By carefully analyzing the operating environment and adding a suitable amount of antifreeze for screw chillers, the probability of equipment failure can be reduced.

 

2. The shorter the replacement period of antifreeze, the better. When using a screw chiller, in order to maintain the safe and stable operation of the equipment, it is necessary to determine the specific replacement period of the antifreeze of the screw chiller according to the use environment. The shorter the replacement cycle is, the stability of the antifreeze can be maintained, so as to achieve the effect of protecting the stable operation of the screw chiller.

 

It can be said that antifreeze is a professional condensing agent necessary for professional refrigeration of many industrial chiller products, and it is also an efficient refrigeration substance. For industrial chillers, the amount of antifreeze is not the better, and when adding, the overall concentration of the antifreeze can be reduced, and the best filling effect can be obtained.


Industrial chillers also have industry specifications and standards for antifreeze requirements. When using antifreeze, they must be used in accordance with the application standards. The lower the concentration, the various impacts on the industrial chiller during operation. At the minimum, by carefully analyzing the operating environment and adding a suitable amount of antifreeze for low-temperature chillers, the probability of equipment failure can be reduced. Both chillers and low-temperature chillers are inseparable from antifreeze.

In winter, the use of industrial chillers is inseparable from the addition of antifreeze. The full name of its antifreeze is called antifreeze coolant, which means a coolant with antifreeze function, which is mainly used for antifreeze in the winter.

 

The requirements of Oumal industrial chiller for antifreeze performance:

1. Stable chemical performance.

2. Good antifreeze performance.

3. The low temperature viscosity is not too big.

4. Anti-corrosion and anti-rust properties.

5. It has no swelling and corrosive properties to rubber sealed conduits.

 

How to choose the antifreeze for the chiller?

In order to greatly improve the cooling performance of the chiller, after a period of use, users need to maintain the chiller regularly. During maintenance, especially in winter, do not neglect to replace the antifreeze for the chiller. If the chiller is maintained without replacing or adding antifreeze, the cold temperature in winter can easily cause freezing of the pipe. When the chiller is operated for a long time, the equipment is prone to various common failures, which will seriously affect the service life of the equipment , Even leading to the continuous increase in the cost of using the chiller.

 

High-quality antifreeze can not only maintain the safe and stable operation of the chiller. If the replacement of the antifreeze is often neglected when the chiller is maintained, the equipment will run for a long time and be prone to high temperature failures. When the chiller is at a high temperature, it not only affects the operating power of the chiller, but also causes the operating life of the chiller to continue to shorten. The shortened lifespan of the chiller affects the cost of the company's use of the chiller, and the longer the company uses the chiller, the more energy it consumes.


So, how to choose the antifreeze for the chiller?

1. When choosing an antifreeze product, in order to maintain the safe and stable operation of the equipment, it is necessary to periodically select a lower concentration antifreeze for replacement.

2. When buying antifreeze for chillers, you need to choose a product with a longer period of time. If the chiller is used for a long time and the probability of equipment failure is low, then the cost of replacing the antifreeze for the company can be fully controlled. The longer the antifreeze is used, the lower the cost of replacing the antifreeze, thereby extending the life of the chiller. The longer the life of the equipment, the higher the cost-effectiveness of the company's use of industrial chillers, ensuring that the company can complete production tasks at low cost.

 

When replacing antifreeze products, you need to choose an antifreeze that meets the equipment operating standards. If the operating index of the antifreeze is low, it is easy to cause common failures of the chiller and endanger the operational safety and life of the equipment. Replacing the antifreeze that is suitable for the equipment can prolong the service life of the antifreeze and provide conditions for saving the cost of operating industrial chillers.

 

The commonly used antifreezes mainly include:

Ethanol, the freezing point and boiling point of ethanol are relatively low, in order to prevent fire, it is generally not used.

Glycerin, mixed with water, is very expensive and not very economical.

Ethylene glycol, the freezing point of ethylene glycol is -11.5°C and the boiling point is 197.4°C, and the lowest freezing point after mixing with water can reach -68°C; ethylene glycol is easy to corrode metals, and anti-corrosion agent should be added when preparing antifreeze. Generally, add 2.5 to 3.5 grams of disodium hydrogen phosphate and 1 gram of dextrin per liter of antifreeze; ethylene glycol has strong hygroscopicity, and the storage container should be sealed; ethylene glycol is not easy to volatile, and the amount used in preparation is small, so it is widely used. The thermal expansion of various antifreeze fluids is relatively large, and can only be added to 95% of the total capacity of the cooling system when filling; when the antifreeze fluid is deployed, its freezing point should be 5 degrees lower than the lowest temperature in the area of use.

Ways and solutions of noise produced by chillers

2025-06-20

It is inevitable that the chiller will produce sound when it is working. For example, when the fan rotates, the fan blades rub against the air, it will produce sound. Normal sound is allowed. However, even the sophisticated refrigeration equipment will appear after a long period of use. Fault. Then, the editor of Oumal Chiller will take you to understand the causes and solutions of the noise produced by the chiller.


First, find the reason from the parts that are easy to check and observe:


1. Are the anchor screws loose?

The chiller is fixed on the ground. After running for a long time, the anchor bolts will be loose, and the chiller will be unstable, which will cause noise. This situation can be solved by replacing the anchor bolts, and vibration reduction can also be installed if conditions permit. The purpose is to make the chiller firmly fixed on the ground.


2. Whether the connecting pipeline is firm

There are large and small pipes on the chiller, connecting the chiller, cooling equipment and other auxiliary devices. If the connecting screws are loose, noise will be generated after operation. The solution is to fix the pipes and equipment.


3. Is there any problem with the fan?

The air-cooled chiller is equipped with a fan fan, which is composed of a fan cover and blades. The blades are deformed by external force and will generate noise after rotating. The fan cover will also cause noise due to the entry of dust and debris. Replace the blades and regularly clean the top of the fan. Sundries can reduce noise.


Then we observe whether the following parts have abnormal noise:

4. Whether the water pump makes abnormal noise

The reason for the abnormal noise of the water pump is mostly due to the water quality, which is not clean enough, which causes the water pump pipe to be blocked, causing abnormal noise at work and generating noise. The circulating water needs to be treated to meet the requirements of the chiller.


5. Whether the compressor has abnormal noise

Compressor abnormal noise is a relatively important problem. Because the compressor is the "heart" of the chiller, special attention should be paid to abnormal noise. The main reasons for compressor abnormal noise are as follows:


customized air cooled chillers


Reason 1: Liquid refrigerant enters the compressor

Once the liquid refrigerant enters the compressor, because it cannot be compressed, the hydraulic pressure will cause liquid shock to the internal structure, resulting in vibration or noise. In addition, too much refrigerant will dilute the refrigerating oil and cause wear of mechanical parts.

Solution: Check whether there is too much refrigerant, and release excess refrigerant; check the opening of the expansion valve, whether it is too large, and adjust it in due course.


Reason 2: Excessive refrigerant oil causes liquid shock

Solution: Check the condition of the refrigerating oil in the compressor and adjust it to an appropriate amount.

Reason three: abnormal noise of compressor cylinder and crankshaft

Generally, it is caused by the lack of lubricating oil, causing abnormal wear of the internal components of the compressor, causing abnormal noise, and also affecting the operation of the compressor and reducing the service life of the equipment.


When this happens, the compressor needs to be repaired or replaced. It is worth noting that regular inspections of the chiller and compressor condition can effectively avoid this situation.

Some people in the industry have encountered this situation. Due to the poor return of oil in the oil return pipe and the lack of refrigerating oil, the compressor crank sleeve is damaged, which generates louder noise and aggravates wear.


It is normal for a chiller in normal use to have a little sound, but irregular and sudden noises must arouse our attention. Briefly summarize the following reasons for the noise of the chiller: loose connection screws, abnormal noises of fans, fans, and water pumps. , Excessive refrigerant, excessive refrigerating oil.


What are the factors affecting the price of screw water chiller ?

2025-06-20

In the market, there are many screw chillers manufacturers, and the prices of screw chillers with the same cooling capacity vary greatly.

First of all, it depends on the type of screw chiller, whether it is an air-cooled screw chiller or a water-cooled screw chiller. Generally speaking, for the same cooling capacity, air-cooled chillers are more expensive than water-cooled chillers. This is because the COP of air-cooled chillers is lower than that of water-cooled chillers. In addition, the cost of air-cooled chillers is relatively higher than that of water-cooled chillers. Of course, the comparison price cannot be simple. Look at the price of the chiller, because the air-cooled chiller is easy to install and does not need to be used with other equipment. It can be turned on when connected to the power supply and water pipe, while the water-cooled chiller needs to be connected to the cooling tower and the water pump and the water pipe, making it easier to install. Complex, the cost of the entire system should also include these. What are the influencing factors for the price of the same type of chiller?


1. compressor

Compressor is an important factor in determining the price of screw chiller. Compressor is the core component of screw chiller. At present, the commonly used screw compressor brands on the market are: Hanbell, Bitzer, Fusheng, etc. Because the prices and performance of these brands of compressors are different, the selection of different compressors will make the whole screw type water chiller. The price of the machine is different. Hanbell compressor is the most commercially available brand of screw chillers in China. Compared with BITZER screw compressors, the price is cheaper and the performance is good. Of course, if the customer's budget is sufficient, the BITZER compressor brand will also be requested.


screw water chiller price


2. Type of evaporator

The type of evaporator will also affect the price of screw chillers. Shell and tube evaporators are commonly used in screw chillers. They all use high-quality externally threaded copper tubes, high-strength sealed structures, and strong heat exchange capabilities. Its main material, copper pipe, is also divided into good and bad, so the price will also be biased. In addition, if the chiller needs to take corrosive liquids, the material of the evaporator needs to use a titanium tube evaporator, or nickel white copper evaporator, 316 stainless steel evaporator, so the material of the evaporator is different, and the cost is also different, which naturally leads to The price of the chiller is different. When we confirm the plan with the customer, we must understand whether the liquid that the customer needs to cool is corrosive. Only in this way can a suitable evaporator be matched to avoid unnecessary losses.


3. Control System

The different control systems of screw chillers will also lead to differences in the price of screw chillers. Normally China Chiller factory uses PUNP control panels for the control system of screw chillers. PUNP control panels also have button-type and touch-screen types. , The price is naturally different, we generally use Siemens PLC control system for customers, which is convenient for customers to program and set by themselves, and also customize according to customer special requirements, such as Omron PLC, WEINVIEW man-machine interface... Oumal Refrigeration is committed to For industrial refrigeration systems, we can customize cooling water systems for customers, and help customers improve product output and quality with preferential chiller prices.


Therefore, when purchasing a screw chiller, you should not only ask about the price of the screw chiller, but also compare the configuration of different screw chillers provided by different chiller manufacturers, so that you can buy the right one at an affordable price. Screw chiller. Similarly, when purchasing a screw chiller, you should also inform the manufacturer of the chilled water temperature used. Because the chiller outlet temperature is different, the chiller model will be different under the same cooling capacity requirement, and the compressor model used Naturally it is different. Omar provides various types of chillers, including: low temperature chillers, glycol chillers, sea water chillers, laboratory chillers, food-grade chillers.

What are the types of chiller evaporators?

2025-06-20

The evaporator is one of the main components of industrial chillers. The types of evaporators include: tank with coil evaporator, shell and tube evaporator, stainless steel plate heat exchanger, titanium tube evaporator. With so many types of evaporators, how should we choose the appropriate type of evaporator for our chiller?

types of chiller evaporator

Water tank coil evaporator: The evaporator is a coil type structure placed in the water tank. The coil-type evaporator of Omar Refrigeration is made as follows: According to the size of the chiller required by the customer, the copper pipes are coiled in a circle, and then the coil-type evaporator is put into the built-in water tank of the box-type chiller. In this way, the refrigerant in the copper pipe can absorb the heat of the water. The water tank coil evaporator is relatively simple to manufacture. The cost is relatively low. Generally, small water chillers use water tank coil type evaporators.


Shell and tube evaporator: Shell and tube evaporator is the most widely used in screw chillers, and different materials can be selected according to different water quality requirements. For example, the middle tube can be 316 stainless steel or copper tube, or nickel white copper, and the outer shell can be carbon steel or 316 stainless steel. The shell and tube evaporator has compact structure, convenient operation and management, and high heat transfer coefficient. The disadvantage is that the refrigerant charge is large, and when the evaporation temperature is lower than 0 degrees, it is easy to freeze and damage the evaporation tube.


Stainless steel plate heat exchanger: As one of the commonly used heat exchange equipment in heat exchangers, stainless steel plate heat exchangers have certain advantages. They can be used in food, heating, domestic hot water, waste heat recovery and other fields. The data displayed by the heat exchange equipment shows that the stainless steel plate heat exchanger has a better heat exchange effect than carbon steel, and it also prolongs the service life. Stainless steel plate heat exchangers are generally divided into 316L and 304 materials. 304 stainless steel plate heat exchanger has a wide range of uses, such as corrosion resistance, heat resistance, mechanical properties, and low temperature strength. The use temperature can be (-196℃-800℃). When customers of general chillers have requirements for water quality, we will generally equip chillers with stainless steel plate heat exchangers in the choice of evaporator.


Titanium tube evaporator: The titanium tube is light in weight, high in strength, and superior in mechanical properties. When the chiller is used with corrosive liquids, such as acidic liquids, we need to use a titanium tube evaporator. For example, in the electroplating industry, the electroplating solution is highly corrosive. If the chiller directly cools the electroplating solution, a titanium tube evaporator is required. , Titanium tube evaporator is also commonly used in fish pond chillers.


After reading the main features and uses of various evaporators, do you know how to choose the right evaporator type for your chiller? If you don’t know, please contact us and tell us where your chiller is used and the type of liquid that needs to be cooled. Oumals professional engineers will choose the most suitable evaporator for your water chiller systems.
