Propane Chillers
ICS Cool Energy offer a low carbon range of air cooled / water cooled propane chillers from 4.5kW to 800kW, with piston and reciprocating compressor technology, covering a temperature range of -12°C to 20°C.
These chillers come with options for tank, pump, EC fans, inverter driven technology, shell & tube evaporators or integrated free cooling, as well as heat pump versions.
Propane (R290) is a 100% natural & odourless refrigerant (hydrocarbon) which is readily available in nature and has been used for over 140 years. It is non-toxic and offers fantastic thermodynamic characteristics, serving as the perfect low GWP substitute refrigerant to ammonia, CFCs, HCFCs and HFCs. From an energy perspective, it offers up to a 20% saving due to lower molecular mass and vapour pressure, whilst being compatible with copper and miscible with mineral oil.
ICS Cool Energy has been providing energy efficient & cost effective chillers for process applications for over thirty years, working across all industries and providing aftersales support with a nationwide network of service and rental engineers.
Features & Benefits
Propane: A better refrigerant
Propane is an odourless refrigerant that is readily available in nature and has been used for over 140 years.
It serves as the perfect substitute refrigerant to CFCs, HCFCs and HFCs.
From an energy perspective, it offers up to a 20% saving due to lower molecular mass and vapour pressure, whilst being compatible with copper and miscible with mineral oil.
We have several Propane chiller options available, all very highly efficient with reciprocating and screw compressors for both positive and negative water leaving temperatures.
Chillers specifically built for process
The ICS Cool Energy range of process chillers is designed specifically for process, with features such as unique finned coil evaporators immersed inside the cold-water tank, making them less susceptible to freezing and able to cope with variable load and process fluctuations. The large integrated cold side buffer tank enables closer temperature control for process tolerance and reduces wear and tear from compressor start and stop operations.
i-Chillers have high-pressure pumps as standard to cope with the more complex pipework found in processes applications. Being fully enclosed in robust steel panels not only protects but creates a smaller footprint for ease of access and ?plug and play? installation.
