A chiller system is one that must be hard-wired, moved with equipment (rather than human power) and generally has more than 5 tons of cooling capacity.

Finding just the right heat exchanger for your specific process cooling application sometimes can be an intimidating task.

Selecting a chiller supplier is part of a multistep process that ultimately aims to deliver adequate, effective cooling for your process application at a cost-effective price.

When you make an equipment purchase, what — besides price, of course — influences what you buy and from whom? We’d all like to think that our buying choices, large and small, are based on good research and a judicious weighing of the costs and benefits of each option.

When choosing which low temperature heat transfer fluid to use for your process, data such as density, film coefficient, viscosity, pour point and thermal conductivity need to be taken into consideration.

Sizing a chiller for condensing applications in pilot and production settings requires careful consideration of various factors.

This issue’s Cooling Capabilities chart focuses on the types of inspection equipment, consulting services and monitoring products provided by water treatment service companies.
