To achieve operational goals, the Glace Bay Miners Forum in Nova Scotia upgraded its ice rink with a custom-designed ammonia chiller system.

A new cannabis cultivation facility in Massachusetts will use two 200-ton Tecochill chillers from Tecogen Inc. The chillers will provide facility cooling using natural gas with the free waste heat utilized for dehumidification.

A chiller that utilizes compressor inverter technology can reduce power consumption up to 65 percent and lower operating costs, says one manufacturer.

A company better known for its pneumatic and vacuum tools and equipment, Atlas Copco developed and released its first process chiller range in the United States. The chillers are designed for cooling water, or a mixture of water and glycol, for industrial processes including food and beverage, medical and pharmaceutical, plastics and machine cooling.

Did you know that precise process cooling is one of the most critical requirements in modern winemaking? The application of cooling during several production steps facilitates high volume production while maintaining the unique flavor profile of the final product.

Do you know the required cooling power for an application? If you do, then choosing a chiller with that cooling capacity makes things simple.

A redesigned chiller series now comes standard using an advanced PLC control system with ModBus RTU and a 7” color touch screen. The control system provides extensive diagnostic capabilities with a range of communication options including Modbus, BACnet and LonWorks.

The ability of a process chiller to operate across a range of ambient conditions at variable loads make them suited for delivering efficient process cooling, says the team Parker Gas Separation and Filtration Division EMEA in a blog post.

Air- and water-cooled industrial-grade chillers are critical for industrial processes such as plastics, pharmaceuticals and transportation manufacturing. They also are used for brewing processes and medical equipment processing.

Preventive maintenance such as changing filters and cleaning built-up dust and debris within equipment, may be delayed during times of high production demand. Yet without proper equipment maintenance, some businesses experience unexpected shutdowns.
