Technical information

The Conair Portable Chillers provide self-contained sources of

chilled water and are available in either water- or air-cooled

models with ranges from 1.5 Hp to 30 Hp (approximate

capacities of 1.5 tons to 30 tons of refrigeration). Pump selec-

tions are available to match most process flow and pressure

requirements.

The normal temperature range of discharge chilled water is

20°F to 70°F (7°C to 21°C). For applications requiring 40°F

and lower mix glycol with the water to the correct percentage.

Conair Portable Chillers are designed to provide chilled fluid

for industrial applications requiring 24-hour-a-day perfor-

mance. Units are totally self-contained for easy, economical

installation. All parts wetted by the process are non-ferrous.

To operate, simply connect the power source, process piping

and fill with water or with industrial grade ethylene glycol or

propylene glycol (but not automotive antifreeze).

These chillers are ideal for machine-side cooling to maintain

process temperatures in an injection molding machine or

extruder and wherever you need a small, moveable cooling

unit. Nominal capacities range from 1.44 to 30 tons for the

water-cooled models and 1.18 to 30 tons for the air-cooled

models. Capacities are based on standard pump sizes and

delivering 50°F (10°C) water.

Operation of these units differ only in the medium used to

remove heat from the refrigerant in the condensers. Water-

cooled models use 85°F (29°C) or lower cooling water from a

tower, well, or city service; air-cooled models use 95°F

(35°C) maximum ambient air; and high ambient models use

120°F (49°C) maximum ambient air.

Choose Water-cooled Portable Chillers where tower water or

another inexpensive water source is available. Choose Air-

cooled models for maximum portability of the unit or if water

is unavailable.

Brazed plate condensers are standard equipment on all water-

cooled models. Air-cooled models use copper-fin tube con-

densers.

All standard voltages are available.
