Air-cooled chillers are refrigeration systems that use ambient air to remove heat instead of water. They are commonly used in commercial and industrial applications where water access is limited or maintenance of a cooling tower is not feasible.

Key Features:

• Cooling Method: Uses fans to dissipate heat into the surrounding air.

• Compact Design: Easier to install and maintain compared to water-cooled chillers.

• Cooling Capacity: Available in various sizes, ranging from small (10-100 tons) to large-scale (1000+ tons).

• Energy Efficiency: Less efficient than water-cooled chillers but ideal for areas with limited water supply.

• Applications: Used in HVAC systems, data centers, manufacturing, plastic molding, and medical cooling.

• Components: Includes a compressor, evaporator, air-cooled condenser, expansion valve, and fans.

They are widely used for outdoor installations and require good ventilation for optimal performance.
