Chiller

A chiller is a component that is used to cool water. The cooled water is pumped from the chiller to a water/air or water/water heat exchanger, where it can be used to cool air or water respectively.

A chiller is a component that is used to cool water. If the water is cooled to below 0 °C, then a water/glycol mixture is often used to prevent the water from freezing. The cooled water is pumped from the chiller to a water/air or water/water heat exchanger, where it can be used to cool air or water respectively.

When the water has passed through the heat exchanger, it returns to the chiller to be cooled again. Chillers are often used for cooling and dehumidifying of air in buildings. Water is non-toxic and therefore well suited to be circulated to various heat exchangers in the building.

Grundfos supplies circulator pumps and water transfer chiller pumps for HVAC chillers and other water chiller systems.
