PHE Chiller: High-Efficiency Cooling Solution for Industrial Applications

What is PHE Chiller? A compact heat exchanger for industrial cooling.

PHE Chillers (Plate Heat Exchanger Chillers) are advanced cooling systems designed for industries requiring precise temperature control. These chillers use plate heat exchangers to transfer heat efficiently, reducing energy consumption by up to 30% compared to traditional shell-and-tube models. Widely used in food processing, pharmaceuticals, and HVAC systems, PHE Chillers offer superior thermal performance, compact design, and easy maintenance. Their corrosion-resistant plates ensure durability, while modular configurations allow scalability. With a typical lifespan of 15-20 years, they are a cost-effective solution for sustainable cooling.

How does PHE Chiller work? Heat transfer via stacked plates.

PHE Chillers operate by circulating refrigerant or water through alternating plates, creating a large surface area for rapid heat exchange. The plates’ corrugated design enhances turbulence, improving efficiency by 90-95%. Hot fluid flows on one side while cold fluid counterflows on the other, minimizing temperature cross. Automated controls adjust flow rates for optimal performance, with some models achieving COP (Coefficient of Performance) values of 4.0+. Maintenance involves periodic plate cleaning to prevent fouling, ensuring consistent operation. Real-world data shows energy savings of 20-40% in dairy and chemical plants.
