Air Cooled Chiller Components

Air Cooled chillers share many components in common but they can also have unit specific ones. 

Let’s cover the list of basic components, 

1. Compressors

2. Hydronic Evaporator 

3. Air Over Condenser Coil

4. Condenser Fans

5. Control Panel

6. Drive Package 

7. Refrigerant Piping

8. Filter Drier 

9. EXV

10. Safeties & Sensors 

Now things start to get very specific from here depending on the compressor type and manufacturer design. 

I would consider these “Optional” possibilities, 

1. Oil Separator

2. Oil Cooler

3. Braze Plate Economizer 

4. Flash Tank Economizer 

5. Liquid Level Sensor 

6. Eductor 

7. Chilled Water Pump

8. Hot Gas Bypass 

9. Oil Filter 

10. Strainer 

These are many of the components you will see but not all. 

Which ones do you have the most questions about? 

Put in comments.
