Water cooled screw chiller is a water to water chiller which compressor use semi-hermetic screw type. It’s high efficient water chiller system. The cooling water system including a water cooled screw chiller, a cooling tower, a water tank, and 3 water pumps. Water cooled screw chiller is widely used in the industrial cooling system. High pressure failure of the water cooled screw chiller is the common failure when it working. While how to deal with the high pressure failure of the water cooled screw chillers. Blow let’s talk with the Possible causes and solutions of the high pressure.

1. The temperature of the chiller is too high and the condensing effect is not good. The rated working temperature of the cooling water required by the water-cooled screw chiller is 30℃-35℃. The high water temperature and poor heat dissipation will inevitably lead to excessive condenser pressure. Occurs in the high temperature season, the reason for the high water temperature may be: cooling tower failure, such as the fan is not turned on or even reversed, the water distributor does not rotate, it turns into the high temperature of the cooling water, and rises rapidly, the external temperature is high, the water path is short, and the recyclable water is less If the cooling water temperature has been maintained at a high level, it can be solved by adding a storage tank.

2. The cooling water flow is not enough to reach the rated water flow. The main performance is that the pressure difference between the inlet and the outlet of the unit is reduced (compared to the pressure difference at the beginning of the system operation), and the temperature increases. The reason for the insufficient water flow is the system Lack of water or air. The solution is to install an exhaust valve at the height of the exhaust pipe. The pipe filter is blocked or selected too fine, and the permeability is restricted. The appropriate filter should be selected and the filter screen should be cleaned regularly. The water pump is very small. The system does not match.

3. Scaling or clogging of the condenser of the screw chiller. Tap water is generally used for condensate, which is prone to scaling when the temperature is higher than 30°C. Moreover, because the cooling tower is open and directly exposed to the air, dust and foreign objects can easily enter the cooling water system, causing dirt to block the condenser, small heat exchange area, low efficiency, and affecting water flow. Its performance is that the pressure difference and temperature between the inlet and outlet of the unit become larger, making the condenser temperature very high, and the copper pipe at the condenser outlet is hot. The equipment should be backwashed regularly, and chemical cleaning and descaling should be carried out when necessary.

Industrial chillers are one type of chillers, and chillers can be divided into air-cooled chillers and water-cooled chillers.

Water chiller is a kind of water cooling equipment, which can provide constant temperature, constant current and constant pressure cooling equipment. The principle of the chiller is to inject a certain amount of water into the internal water tank of the machine, and the water is cooled by the chiller refrigeration system, and then a water pump inside the machine injects low-temperature frozen water into the equipment that needs to be cooled, and the chilled water will heat the internal heat of the machine. Take it away and return the high-temperature hot water to the water tank to cool down again. In this way, it is circulated and exchanged and cooled to achieve the effect of cooling the equipment.

In industrial applications, chilled water or other liquid cooling pumps are passed through processes or laboratory equipment. Industrial chillers are used in various industries to control the cooling of products, mechanisms and factory machinery. They are commonly used in injection and blow molding in the plastics industry, metal processing cutting oils, welding equipment, die-casting and machining, chemical processing, pharmaceutical formulation, food and beverage processing, papermaking, cement processing, vacuum systems, X-ray diffraction, electric power Supply and power stations, analytical equipment, semiconductors, compressed air and gas cooling. They are also used to cool high heat energy, such as MRI machines and laser specialized engineering projects, and in hospitals, hotels and campuses. The chillers for industrial applications can be centralized, and each chiller can meet multiple needs for cooling, or be dispersed in each application or device with its own chiller. Each method has its advantages. It may also have a combination of central and decentralized chillers, especially when the cooling requirements are the same for certain applications or use points, but not all.

Distributed chillers have a small area (cooling capacity) usually from 0.2 tons to 10 tons. Central chillers generally have a capacity ranging from 10 tons to hundreds or thousands of tons.

Chilled water is used to cool and dehumidify the air in large-scale commercial, industrial and institutional alliance (CII) facilities. The chiller can be water-cooled, air-cooled, cooled or evaporatively. The use of water-cooled chillers is incorporated into cooling towers, which improves the cooling' thermodynamic efficiency compared to air-cooled chillers. This is due to the high temperature or the wet bulb temperature of the nearby air, rather than repelling the high, sometimes much higher, dry bulb temperature. Evaporatively chillers provide better efficiency than air cooling, but lower than cold water.

Several aspects of the chiller should be paid attention to:

1. Selection of model size of chiller for injection molding machine

When used as a mold cooling of an injection molding machine, it can be calculated according to the injection volume of the injection molding machine. Generally, a 1HP chiller is used for every 6 ounces of injection volume. For example, the customer’s factory is 100T (5.5OZS)×3; 150T(12OZS)×4 units; 200T(23OZS)×3 units; the required chiller size is (5.5×3+12×4+23×3)/6=22.25, that is, a 25HP chiller. When used for cooling of other equipment, it depends on the specific flow rate of the cooling water circulation.

2. Selection of the insulation water tank and water pump of the chiller

Sometimes according to the actual situation of the customer's factory, the box-type chiller may also require an external pump. At this time, the additional pump model must have the same power as the pump that comes with the chiller. If the 10HP box-type chiller comes with a pump power of 2HP, when the pump is added, it must also be 2HP.

3. The temperature of the return water of the chiller should not be higher than 40 degrees. The higher the return water temperature, the greater the damage to the compressor.
