Fractional Air-Cooled Chillers

Fractional Air-Cooled Chillers from BV Thermal SystemsFractional Air-Cooled Chillers operate in a closed loop cooling application where all of the water pumped from the chiller returns to the main unit under the pressure generated by the pump.  Fractional Air-Cooled chillers absorb heat from process water, and the heat is then transferred to the air around the chiller unit. This type of chiller system is generally used in applications where the additional heat it discharges is not a factor. In fact, it’s often practical to use the excess heat to warm a plant during the winter, thus providing additional cost savings.

Manufactured in the United States the Air-Cooled Chillers from BV Thermal Systems are rigorously tested to ensure that chillers meet Our requirements before we would ship any unit to you.  The Air-Cooled feature a hot gas by-pass which routes the hot, uncondensed refrigerant back through a reservoir coil thus eliminating the on/off cycling of the compressor.  Utilization of the hot gas by-pass allows for greater stability and thermal protection for the pump, motor and compressor.

With simplicity in design and operation, the BV Thermal  Systems Air-Cooled Chiller is designed to provide years of reliable liquid temperature control. With environmentally friendly CFC refrigerant the Air-Cooled Chillers feature corrosion free wetted surfaces.  With the largest selection of options in the industry, the Air-Cooled Chiller may be designed and manufactured to your exact requirements and specifications.

All of the BV Thermal Systems Air-Cooled Chillers feature a low profile design with high quality non-marring, locking casters and additionally provide a small footprint with exceptional performance and unmatched reliability.
