Fluid temperature far below ambient temperature: when this is necessary, mechanical cooling allowed by a chiller for industrial processes must be used.
Process Chillers: Frequently Asked Questions and Expert Answers
Subcooling is the reduction of the temperature of the refrigerant leaving the condenser.
Read all FaqSubcooling results in an increase in the cooling capacity of the system, hence electrical savings and a higher COP (coefficient of performance).

Requirement: industrial fluid temperatures close to zero
When an industrial process requires a fluid to be brought well below the wet bulb temperature, evaporative and adiabatic systems are no longer sufficient.
Tell Us Your NeedsThe solution: industrial chillers
An industrial process chiller (or refrigeration unit or chiller) uses the compression and mechanical expansion of a refrigerant gas: the aim is to bring the process fluid (e.g. water or water plus glycol) below zero degrees, well below room temperature.
A chiller or compression chiller is equipped with several thermal machines: compressor, evaporator, condenser and an “expansion valve”.
Industrial Process Cooling: What to Know
How does a chiller work?
In its various phases of operation, a chiller supplies and extracts heat from a refrigerant gas used to cool the industrial fluid. In particular, the condensing phase of the refrigerant fluid can use air: air-cooled chillers, therefore, do not consume water.
What are the components of a process chiller?
- Compressor
- Evaporator
- Condenser
- Expansion valve
