Condenser
Function of the condenser
A heat exchanger which transfers heat from the refrigerant to the surrounding air or water.
Failure of the condenser
Air Cooled Condenser
A non operational fan/motor or restricted condenser will reduce the cooling efficiency of the
refrigeration unit.
Water Cooled Condenser
A restricted water supply to the condenser will reduce the efficiency of the refrigeration unit, a
water modulating valve that is stuck open will additionally waste water.
Water Cooled Condenser
Notes:
w Water cooled condensers should have water exiting condenser 100°F to 105°F regulator
adjusts water flow to refrigerant pressure (higher pressure, more flow)
w Clean condenser monthly
Remote Cooled Condenser
(use refrigeration oil)
Air Cooled Condenser
