Chilled water is often a requirement in industry. Whether keeping a mold from over-heating in a plastic-injected manufacturing operation, or making sure ingredients don’t spoil during food production, or ensuring critical medical equipment is kept online, process chillers are at the heart of many operations. Many times, if the chiller goes down, the whole process shuts down. Therefore, the chiller shouldn’t be seen as an afterthought, but as a vital tool at the heart of your company.
The list of standard features on the CHL chiller line is extensive. While many competitors charge extra for these features, or ship them loose requiring additional installation time and cost, Gardner Denver has included these features as standard. We did this to ensure you end up with an easy-to-install, high-quality process chiller that exceeds your expectations
OPTIFLUX Exchanger
The patented OPTIFLUX heat exchanger, which features a tube in flexible shell design, is integral to the buffer vessel and protects against damage which can occur with improper setup and maintenance.
Copeland™ Scroll Compressor
Standard on models CHL2.0 and up, the Copeland™ scroll compressor minimizes power consumption, noise, vibration and moving parts. At the same time, this compressor maximizes reliability and resistance to liquid refrigerant returns.
An aluminum frame covered with easy-to-remove panels makes up the body of the CHL chiller. Each galvanized steel panel is PVC coated to ensure it stands the test of time. Aluminum and stainless steel panels are also available.
To protect against contaminants in the incoming cooling air, the CHL comes standard with a washable air filter.
A closed expansion tank is fitted as standard for plug-and-play installation of the water circuit. Being equipped with a vent on the high point of the chiller allows for any trapped air to be removed while filling the chilling unit.
The phase sequence monitor, standard on models CHL2.0 and above, protects against improper power and insures correct rotation direction of pump, fan and compressor.
The digital microprocessor on the CHL series continuously gives the user readouts on water outlet temperature. Additionally, the microprocessor gives the user the ability to access operating instructions and adjustable parameters and alarms.
Air-Cooled Condenser
The axial cooling fan reduces noise levels and improves ventilation air flow.
Integrated Manual Bypass
A manual bypass and pressure gauge comes standard on all units 2.0 ton and higher. This feature allows for easy regulation of the water supply flowing out of the chiller.
Integral Water Pump
Integrated centrifugal pump comes standard on all models.
