Custom Equipment Profiles: Air Cooled Chillers for Hydraulic Systems


A recent customer approached General Air Products' engineering team
with a unique hydraulic cooling application. Our customer observed that
his hydraulics were getting so hot during a long-duration test cycle that
heat given off was contaminating the results of their testing. We assured
him that we could provide a chiller that would continuously dissipate all
heat during these long test cycles, without adversely impacting the test
results. And, with our extensive experience and the unique packaging of
our chillers, General Air Products provided the customer with the ideal unit
in regard to efficiency, cooling capability, cost and reliability.

Keeping your hydraulic system cool is critical for your equipment to run
and test loads at optimum levels. Keeping your hydraulic system cool is
critical to the engineering team at General Air Products, too. Our process
cooling engineers have designed many standard and custom chillers for
use in sensitive hydraulic system applications. An efficient and reliable
chiller, designed to handle varying load conditions, is a necessity for your
hydraulic equipment to perform efficiently.

Not only are our pump and tank packaged together, but our chillers also
come with a tank-mounted evaporator*. The tank mounted evaporator
reduces unit dimensions to make for a smaller footprint and more
importantly, ensures a steady / controllable tight leaving fluid temperature
range. As the chiller cycles,
there is a consistent
temperature for the supply
of cold water that will be circulated through the loop-in-loop exchange,
removing heat from the process as well as returning large energy savings.

Considering chillers are vital to the heat
dissipation of your hydraulic system
componentry, you should choose the
chiller manufacturer who understands
those demands. General Air Products has
an experienced engineering team ready to
supply you with the chiller that best fits your
application. Contact us today.

Several advantages to a tank mounted evaporator on our standard chiller:

- Tightest temperature control in industry (within1 ½ ºF)

- Energy savings due to less frequent cycling

- Small footprint

- Cycling design provides for immediate load matching capability
