What is the reason why the efficiency of industrial chillers decreases during use?
2022-12-05
Industrial chillers often suffer from low efficiency during use. There are many reasons for this phenomenon. Only with a comprehensive understanding can we find corresponding solutions to improve the working efficiency of industrial chillers.
Reason one:
Human operating errors Although most refrigeration equipment in chiller factories do not have an overly cumbersome process when used, some basic contents are often easily overlooked during long-term use. Or it may be because the user is a first-time operator and has no experience in using the equipment. Therefore, the refrigeration equipment operator needs to undergo professional skills training before operating the machine, and should be allowed to operate the machine only after passing the test. .
Reason two:
Improper maintenance: scaling occurs on important equipment components, which means improper maintenance can easily lead to inefficient operation of the equipment. For example, when the condenser of a refrigeration unit is severely fouled, it will affect the heat exchange effect and lead to low operating efficiency of the overall equipment. Here, in addition to components such as condensers that are prone to scaling, serious wear and tear on components such as transmission mechanisms can also easily lead to insufficient equipment operation efficiency.
Reason three:
The equipment has a high load during operation. Because the industrial chiller factory will overload the equipment during production, under normal circumstances, the best load operation rate of refrigeration equipment is 80%, so that the efficiency that can be obtained will be the highest. However, it is often difficult to achieve this in the actual production process, which naturally makes the product inefficient.
Reason four:
The ambient temperature changes too much. The operating factors that refrigeration equipment needs to pay attention to at different temperatures will also be different, such as cooling water temperature, etc. Generally speaking, in a chiller factory, there will be an air-conditioning exhaust system to cool down the environment, so that the refrigeration equipment is in a constant temperature environment. But if there is a problem with this equipment that controls the ambient temperature, it will eventually lead to problems with the operating efficiency of the equipment.
