RW ax Liquid Chiller

Air condensation with axial type fans
Temperature range: from 1°C up to 20°C
-20 -10 0 10 20 30 40 50
Outdoor temperatures: up to 40°C

These liquid chillers combine efficiency and performance control with brushless axial fans: they are chillers suitable for achieving average fluid outlet temperatures while optimizing energy use. In standard execution, ambient temperatures up to +40°C are allowed, but set-ups for even higher ambient temperatures can be requested.

RW ax liquid chillers: operation

RW ax systems for industrial refrigeration of process fluids (water, water and glycol) are air-cooled: the only resource used is therefore electrical energy, a decisive advantage in contexts where it is advisable to save water (because of its cost or scarcity).

The IP54-grade machine protection (against dust and other agents) facilitates their installation in outdoor environments, which is also possible at temperatures up to +40°C and above, at the customer’s request.

RW ax liquid chillers from Frigofluid are suitable for achieving average fluid outlet temperatures (between +1°C and 20°C), with excellent control of the resources used for their operation.

Focus: electronic microprocessor of hydraulic circuit and coolant circuit

It is a useful tool for thermostatting water (glycol) and displaying working pressures of refrigerant gas with remote diagnostic capability: an alphanumeric display communicates the operating “status” of the unit. In multi-compressor machines, the microprocessor performs automatic rotation of compressor starts, to balance their working hours, and manages load-dependent partialization.

As with all Frigofluid systems, there is the possibility of remote management from the panel or via serial communication.

Versions and types of accumulation available

  • RWA ax: internal storage at atmospheric pressure.
  • RWC ax: internal airtight storage (possibility of connecting other power plants in parallel).
  • RWE ax: external storage.

Manual By-Pass for Industrial Chillers

Manual By-Pass

An accessory designed for the function of adjusting the flow rate of water or water/glycol from a hydraulic circuit so as to obtain a working condition suitable for the chiller and its use. This adjustment is carried out by controlling the discharge pressure of the chiller pump.

Expansion Vessel for Industrial Chillers

Expansion Vessel Kit

An accessory designed for the function of containing changes in "hydrostatic" pressure in a type "C" (pressurized) hydraulic circuit due to changes in water and/or water/glycol liquid temperature.

Expansion Vessel for Industrial Chillers

Outdoor Kit

This is an accessory consisting of 3 elements that ensure IP 55 watertightness of the electrical panel and its components for outdoor installation without any canopy or other protection. With OPT 01250 a cover is applied on the electrical box that protects the gasket of the switchboard door.

Modbus for Industrial Chillers

RTU Modbus

Allows communication of data from our control panels with supervisory and/or other systems through a modbus communication but also OPC UA and PROFINET.

Automatic Loading for Industrial Chillers

Automatic Loading

Hydraulic system aimed at controlling the filling from water or water/glycol of hydraulic circuits. Consisting of accessories and fittings, it is installed on RW power plants, RAW coolers, and systems in general.

Water Filter for Industrial Chillers

Water Filter

Mechanical filter installed on the water inlet pipe to the chiller (return). The filter usually Y-type can be bronze for sections up to 2" ½ max 3", or spheroidal cast iron flanged for sections 3" and up.

Preliminary Assessment

Many interlocutors come to us with a very general idea of their industrial refrigeration needs: this is normal. That's why we stimulate the sharing of technical information.

Customized Design

We believe that integration with the best accessories on the market and the careful and 'unified' selection of internal components can make the difference.

Custom Chillers and Turnkey Plants

Production facilities and the characteristic of the installation area also have important effects on the design: because one cannot stop at the listed solutions.
