30HP Air Cooled Chiller for Large Process Cooling
APT 30HP air cooled chiller provides large process cooling for production lines, hydraulic cooling, chemical process loops, injection molding, extrusion, die casting auxiliary cooling, process tanks, electroplating, thermal spray auxiliary cooling, and general industrial temperature control. Pump, evaporator, voltage, controller, cabinet layout, condenser design, and high ambient configuration can be customized according to project requirements.
When Should You Choose a 30HP Air Cooled Chiller?
A 30HP air cooled chiller is suitable for large industrial process cooling where approximately 75-90 kW cooling capacity is required without using a cooling tower. It is commonly selected for production lines, hydraulic systems, chemical process loops, injection molding, extrusion, die casting auxiliary cooling, electroplating, process tanks, and thermal spray auxiliary cooling. Final configuration should be confirmed according to heat load, water temperature, water flow, pump pressure, ambient temperature, voltage, condenser ventilation, and installation space.
Reviewed for larger industrial cooling loads where 20HP and 25HP directions are no longer sufficient.
Air cooled installation simplifies layout when plant condenser water is unavailable or not preferred.
APT can tailor hydraulic, thermal, electrical, and control details for the actual process system.
Large 30HP Air Cooled Chiller for Industrial Process Cooling
The 30HP air cooled chiller is a large industrial cooling unit for equipment and process lines that require higher cooling capacity than 20HP or 25HP models while still using air cooled heat rejection. With an air cooled condenser, compressor system, process water circuit, circulation pump, controller, and customizable evaporator configuration, it can be used as an independent cooling source for production equipment, hydraulic systems, process tanks, extrusion lines, chemical process loops, and machine-side cooling loops.
