Industrial Refrigeration for Metal Working

Chillers for Metalworking

This is a classic industrial refrigeration application: often, metalworking chillers operate on several production lines in the same plant, with different temperature ranges and different outlet fluid temperatures. It is not infrequent that a complete cooling plant is also supplemented by temperature control units: these are useful for keeping the temperatures of the process fluids constant, according to preset values.

Examples of industries:

Examples of industries: production of steel, alloys and semi-finished products, aluminium and zamak die-casting, galvanic treatments, metal galvanising, anodic oxidation of aluminium.

Main requirements:

Main requirements: high temperature differences, several production lines to be cooled in the same plant.

Chillers for steel mills and foundries

Chillers for steelworks and foundries are particularly involved in the cooling of induction furnaces, transformer rooms, hydraulic handling, AHUs, etc.

Chiller units are thus part of the production of steel, alloys and semi-finished products.

In addition to the heat dissipation part, we must not forget the contribution made by temperature control units to control and keep even high temperatures constant in various heating elements, according to predetermined values. Such temperature control units are often present in complete turnkey refrigeration plants.

Turnkey Refrigeration

Turnkey Refrigeration Plants

A refrigeration system is more than a single chiller: heat exchangers, hydraulic connections, additional cooling devices also come into play to support your production process.

Air-Cooled Liquid Chillers

Temperature fluido in uscita da +1° a +30° C

In air-cooled liquid chillers, the cooling of the refrigerant gas is ensured by the ambient air itself. Frigofluid offers a wide range of this type of industrial chiller in its catalogue, including a solution with free-cooling.

Water Condensed Liquids Chillers

Water-Cooled Liquid Chillers

Fluid outlet temperatures -8°C to +20° C

Cooling the refrigerant gas by means of a water exchanger: this is what characterises the water-cooled chillers, which use this feature to ensure high system efficiency. Frigofluid water chillers, with output temperatures down to -8° C, are ideal when air movement is not possible.

Industrial Dry Coolers and Adiabatic Dry Coolers

Industrial dry coolers are a useful solution where fluid outlet temperatures no lower than the external temperature are required. Adiabatic dry coolers are a version of these industrial coolers that can offer outlet fluid temperatures lower than the external temperature.

FTT-PD Industrial Thermoregulation

Industrial Thermoregulation Units

Water control temperatures from +90° to +140° C

Industrial termoregulation units manufactured by Frigofluid are designed to condition moulds and cylinders in various industrial processes. In plastic moulding, process fluids are kept at temperature, thus reducing the use of electrical power for heating and limiting the cooling power spent on cooling by self-stabilisation.

Custom Design of Industrial Chillers and Coolers

Remanufactured chillers for immediate delivery

Remanufacturing is a 'hot topic' in industrial production, especially in times of resource rationalisation: Frigofluid can supply its customers with remanufactured chillers. A totally sustainable solution.

Preliminary Assessment

Many interlocutors come to us with a very general idea of their industrial refrigeration needs: this is normal. That's why we stimulate the sharing of technical information.

Customized Design

We believe that integration with the best accessories on the market and the careful and 'unified' selection of internal components can make the difference.

Custom Chillers and Turnkey Plants

Production facilities and the characteristic of the installation area also have important effects on the design: because one cannot stop at the listed solutions.
