The service of CO2 differs from other refrigerants as the refrigerant has high gas pressures. Refrigerant leak detection systems are used for safety. Our detailed tick sheet will keep your chiller in the very best condition.
Your commercial chiller relies on heat transfer efficiency to carry out its job well. Heat transfer is the process of removing heat from the chiller and then disposing it outside of the unit. This applies to all the parts of the equipment, especially its refrigeration circuitry.
In short, a chiller's heat transfer efficiency refers to how well it removes heat from within. If it has poor heat transfer, then it can't chill anything to your preferred temperature. It may not even provide any cooling effect at all!
Contaminants in the condenser are some of the main reasons behind poor heat transfer. Minerals from hard water, scaling, algae, and debris can block the condenser tubes. Scale build-up on your chiller's components can also increase its thermal resistance.
When any of these things happen, your equipment's performance is sure to suffer.
Whether you're using your chiller coupled with computer room cooling or running a specific manufacturing process, you will require routine maintenance. With regular commercial chiller maintenance though, you can keep these issues from arising. At the very least, this includes clearing clogs in condenser tubes and brushing them at least once a year.
