Chiller Applications

Temperature Corporation manufacturers chiller systems including water and air cooled chillers. We supply chilling systems and chillers to a wide variety of industrial processes and production machinery applications, ranging from self-contained portable units through to completely installed "turn-key systems".

A chiller can be used to cool any machine or process that operates at 60 F or ower. A cooling tower can be used to cool any machine or process that operates at 85 F or higher. Some of the more common applications are listed below:

Plastics
In the plastics industry, a chilling system cools the hot plastic that is injected, blown, extruded or stamped. A chilling system can also cool down the equipment that is used to create plastic products (hydraulics of the molding machine, gear box and barrel of the extruder) that saves on energy and on the wear and tear of the machine itself.
Injection Molding
In addition to removing the heat from the plastic mold, our chillers can be used to transfer heat away from the hydraulic heat exchanger, the mold temperature controller (thermolator) and the feed throat of the injection molding machine. While there are other heat removal devices such as a cooling tower, well or city water, using our chillers offers you some distinct advantages.
Printing
In the printing industry, a chiller not only removes the heat generated by the friction of the printing rollers, but cools down the paper after it comes out of the ink drying ovens in the process.
Laser
In the laser cutting industry, light projection industry, etc. a chilling system is used to cool down the lasers and power supplies.
Rubber
In the rubber industry to cool the multizone water temperature control units of the rubber extruder barrel, cool the rubber mill, calendars and bambury mixers.
Beverage
In the beverage industry, a chiller removes the heat gained from the process during mixing, cooking, or after pasteurizing the product.
Air Conditioning
With cooling expenses accounting for 30% to 50% of your total energy costs and rising fast, and the impending phaseout of chlorofluorocarbon (CFC) and hydrochlorofluorocarbon (HCFC) refrigerants, there is a rapidly growing need to replace large commercial air conditioning and refrigeration systems. To meet this demand, we offer hvac, air conditioning or modular chillers for large industrial and commercial applications. Our systems are easy to replace or maintain and have a service life of 10 to 20 years giving you long term, low cost energy efficiency.
MRI
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a method of creating images of organs inside of the human body. In the medical profession these devices are often used to distinquish pathological tissue, i.e., a brain tumour, from normal tissue. MRI chillers are used to remove the heat from the MRI scanner and transfer it to ether the surrounding ambient air or a water source such as a cooling tower.

Custom Engineered Cooling Solutions

Temperature Corporation manufacturers custom designed equipment to meet a variety of customer needs. Engineered equipment can be as simple as changing the shape and size of a tank set or chiller to suit our customer's plant space, or by adding structural steel to support the chiller(s) above the tank, or mounting the pumps under the tank - to more complicated packages for special process applications requiring plate and frame or shell and tube heat exchangers mounted on the chiller or pump tank frame. These packages come pre-piped with strainers, fine particle filters, chemical treatment, water softeners, isolation valves, motorized or pneumatic control valves, pressure and temperature gauges. EEMAC 12 or 4 control panels complete with run and fail lights, disconnect, 3-phase fusing, 120 volt control, pre-wired to motors, control valves, pressure transmitters, temperature sensors, alarms and plant PLC systems.

Whatever application problem you might be having, we look forward to the challenge of finding the right solution. Below are just some of the ways that we solved a process or cooling application problem.




Remote Air Condenser


1. Custom Design:
Customer's conditions: A chilled water system to cool 750 gpm of grinding solution that could become contaminated with metal fines. The pressure drop through the heat exchanger for the 750 gpm process could not exceed 2 psi..

Our solution: A remote air condenser chiller with a shell and "U" tube heat exchanger, the process fluid goes through in the shell and the chilled water through the tubes. We chose a "U" tube heat exchangers because the tube bundle can be removed for cleaning. An 18" diameter vessel was required to achieve a 1.8 psi drop through the shell and two 8" inlets and one 8" outlet were required to maintain proper fluid velocity to achieve heat transfer rate.




Glycol/Water Chiller


2. Custom Design:
Customer's conditions: To cool 5 gallons of city water ranging in temperature from 70° F during the summer months to as low as 45° F in the winter months down to 40° F and hold with +/- 1° F. The chiller cannot add any heat to the building and must operate all year round.

Our solution: We supplied an 8 hp compressor with 4.5 tons capacity at 34° F glycol/water chiller to operate at no lower than 33° F with the city water being cooled through a stainless brazed plate heat exchanger, two lock-out thermostats were used to stop the chiller compressor to prevent freezing of the city water heat exchanger. The first senses the temperature of the leaving glycol from the evaporator, the other senses the temperature of the leaving city water from the heat exchanger, either one can stop the compressor until the condition is checked, corrected and the thermostat manually reset.

To ensure control of the leaving city water temperature within +/- 1° F, we used a three-way motorized valve sensing the leaving city water temperature to by-pass the glycol around the heat exchanger maintaining the leaving city water temperature.

To prevent short cycling of the compressor we used an oversized glycol tank and a hot gas by-pass valve sized to reduce evaporator capacity by 50%. An outdoor condenser was used so that no heat was added to the plant and was designed to operate as a flooded condenser with head pressure control valves to maintain head pressure during the winter months and ensure enough heat for the hot-gas by-pass valve to operate properly.




Plate Frame Heat Exchanger


3. Custom Design:
Customer's conditions: To cool the hydraulics on a 200 hp injection molding machine using an existing supply of city water (20 gpm) that is being used in the plant. Our cooling unit had to operate under the following conditions:

The molding machine had to operate 24 hours/day, 7 days a week.
The 20 gpm flow was not used 24 hours/day or the flow could be lower than 20 gpm.
We could not restrict the 20 gpm flow.
The 20 gpm flow could be hotter than we required during the summer months.
The system had to operate with heat exchanger out of the loop for cleaning.
Stand-by heat exchanger recirculating pump.
Our solution: We supplied a stainless steel plate and frame heat exchanger package with a stainless steel tank and two pumps each circulating 60 gpm of water through the hydraulic heat exchanger and through the plate and frame. 20 gpm of city water entering the other side of the heat exchanger at a maximum of 70° F will cool the hydraulic water loop from 95° F to 85° F.

Using three valves the heat exchanger could be by-passed and removed for service while the city water cools the heat exchanger directly with the hot water going down the sanitary drain.

Using a temperature operated valve on the outlet side of the city water line sensing the leaving water to the hydraulic heat exchanger, we could dump water to the sanitary drain if the plant water was not being used, or the flow was less than 20 gpm or entered hotter than required. Three flow control valves were installed to allow the system to be balanced.




Four Pump Tank Set


4. Custom Design:
Customer's conditions: To isolate the dirty cooling tower water from the process water. All the components had to be mounted on one skid that must fit into a truck destined for Mexico. All the water connections, drain, overflow and control panel were locate to mate to the appropriate connections in the mechanical room.

The solution: The skid size was 7'6"w x 14'l long with a four pump tank set (tower and process each had their own stand-by pump and header).

The system was sized to handle two 125 ton cooling towers. The plate and frame heat exchanger was mounted on the pump skid and pre-piped to the pumps with inlet strainers, inlet and outlet valves, pressure and temperature gauges. The pumps were pre-wired to the control panel along with alarms and sensors.




Engineered Systems


Engineered systems: We can supply installation assistance with plant piping drawings through to a complete "turnkey installation".

The services we offer:
Refrigeration mechanics for installation of our split chiller packages, galvanized sheet metal air ducts and 24 hour 7 day a week chiller and cooling tower service in the greater Toronto area. Millwrights for the installation of new of chillers, cooling towers, tank sets or moving of existing equipment to a new plant.

Mechanical for steel stands with footings to support cooling towers or chillers outside and mezzanines inside to support chillers and tank sets. Pipe fitters for water piping, air lines and condensate lines. Pipe runs in steel, galvanized steel, PVC and copper. Steel pipe joints and drops can be threaded, welded or victualic coupled or a combination of all three.
