Water Cooled Chiller is a specialized refrigeration system designed to remove heat from a process fluid (usually water or a glycol mixture) and reject it through a separate water circuit, typically connected to a cooling tower. Compared to air-cooled alternatives, a Water Cooled Chiller offers significantly higher energy efficiency and a longer service life, making it the preferred choice for large-scale industrial manufacturing, data centers, and centralized HVAC systems.
By leveraging over 30 years of refrigeration expertise, Zhejiang Kaidi Refrigeration Equipment Co., Ltd. engineers high-performance Water Cooled Chiller units that prioritize environmental sustainability and operational stability. Our systems are integrated with precision CNC-machined components and tested in high-standard laboratories to ensure they meet the rigorous demands of global industrial standards.
The operation of a Water Cooled Chiller follows the vapor-compression cycle, but utilizes water as the condensing medium rather than ambient air.
Evaporation: Low-pressure liquid refrigerant absorbs heat from the process water in the evaporator, turning into gas and cooling the process water.
Compression: The compressor (Screw or Scroll) increases the pressure and temperature of the refrigerant gas.
Condensation: The high-pressure gas enters the condenser, where cool water from a cooling tower absorbs the heat, causing the refrigerant to condense back into a liquid.
Expansion: The liquid refrigerant passes through an expansion valve, dropping in pressure before returning to the evaporator.
Kaidi Technical Edge: Our R&D center in Shanghai focuses on optimizing the heat exchange coefficient of our condensers, ensuring that Kaidi units maintain peak COP (Coefficient of Performance) even under fluctuating load conditions.
Choosing the right system depends on your facility's infrastructure. Below is a data-driven comparison:
| Feature | Water Cooled Chiller | Air Cooled Chiller |
| Cooling Medium | Water (requires cooling tower) | Ambient Air (integrated fans) |
| Energy Efficiency (COP) | High (4.5 – 6.0+) | Moderate (2.5 – 3.5) |
| Service Life | 20+ Years | 10–15 Years |
| Installation Space | Indoor (Plant Room) | Outdoor (Roof/Ground) |
| Noise Level | Low (Internal operation) | High (External fan noise) |
| Ideal for | Large-scale factories, high-rise buildings | Small to medium facilities, water-scarce areas |
With a 100,000 $m^2$ manufacturing base, Kaidi provides tailored solutions across various sectors:
Plastic & Chemical Processing: Precise temperature control for injection molding and chemical reactors to ensure product consistency.
Food & Beverage: Rapid cooling for dairy and beverage production lines, maintaining hygiene and safety.
Data Centers: Continuous 24/7 cooling for high-density server racks where downtime is not an option.
Case Study: A major textile manufacturer in Southeast Asia implemented a Kaidi centralized Water Cooled Chiller system, resulting in a 25% reduction in annual energy costs compared to their previous air-cooled setup.
To maintain the "Kaideli" brand reputation for reliability, we recommend the following maintenance schedule:
Water Quality Management: Regularly treat the cooling tower water to prevent scale buildup and corrosion in the condenser tubes.
Refrigerant Charge: Periodically check for leaks and ensure the refrigerant level is within the factory-specified range.
Electrical Inspections: Inspect contactors and wiring for signs of wear or overheating.
Oil Analysis: For screw-type compressors, annual oil analysis ensures internal components remain lubricated and debris-free.
Q1: Does a Water Cooled Chiller always require a cooling tower?
Yes. To reject the heat absorbed by the refrigerant, a continuous flow of cool water is required, which is standardly provided by an external cooling tower and pump system.
Q2: How does Kaidi ensure the quality of its refrigeration units?
Zhejiang Kaidi utilizes advanced CNC machining and a high-standard testing laboratory. Every unit undergoes rigorous performance testing under simulated load conditions before leaving our 60,000 $m^2$ modern factory.
Q3: Can these units be integrated into existing Building Management Systems (BMS)?
Absolutely. Our chillers come equipped with smart controllers that support standard communication protocols (like Modbus or BacNet) for seamless integration.
