What are the purposes of controlling the water quality of the chiller

1. Ensure the heat-carrying effect of cooling water.

One of the most important points in controlling the cooling water quality is of course to ensure the heat-carrying effect of the cooling water. The heat-carrying effect refers to the ability of the cooling water to carry heat during heat exchange at the condenser. The worse the heat-carrying effect is, the worse the heat-carrying ability will be, which will lead to the poorer cooling effect of the condenser.

Therefore, improving the purity of the cooling water of the chiller can improve the heat-carrying capacity of the cooling water, thereby improving the heat exchange effect of the condenser. After all, the condenser of the water-cooled chiller completely relies on the cooling water to carry heat and exchange heat.

2. Reduce power consumption.

The water quality of the water-cooled chiller is good. While improving the cooling effect of the condenser and the cooling effect of the chiller, it can avoid the increase of compressor load caused by the poor quality of the cooling water. If the outlet temperature of the chilled water outlet cannot meet the set standard, the system will “force” the chilled water outlet temperature to meet the standard by increasing the overall load of the chiller (compressor load).

3. Improve the service life of water pumps and cooling towers.

The quality of the cooling water of the water-cooled ice water machine is not only related to the heat exchange effect of the condenser of the water-cooled ice water machine, but also the service life of related components such as the water pump and the cooling water tower. It should be known that if the cooling water of the water-cooled ice water machine is not pure, it may cause the pump load to increase or even be damaged, and at the same time, it will also corrode the cooling water tower and the cooling water pipeline.

4. Avoid heavy maintenance work.

If the water quality of the cooling water of the water-cooled ice water machine is relatively poor, heavy and frequent maintenance work may be required. In this way, not only the maintenance personnel of the ice water machine will be troublesome, but also the normal use of the ice water machine will be affected. In addition, the water quality is not good. The scaling or corrosion caused by the good is not a good thing for the ice water machine itself.
