PACKAGED ICE RINK CHILLERS

Packaged ice rink chillers are based on our well-known reciprocating compressors, high efficiency evaporators with flooded surge drum. The wide range of standard ice rink chillers consists of two-compressor units for single rinks and three-compressor units for double rinks.

Standard Configuration

Our standard refrigerant combinations are ammonia or HFC refrigerant with ethylene glycol. Other refrigerants/glycol combinations can easily be offered on request.

For each of the two standard refrigerant combinations there are 10 different sizes with nominal capacities from 66 TR to 282 TR, each including the following main components:

  • Two and three reciprocating compressor unit configuration for single and double rink packages, respectively

  • One flooded evaporator

  • Liquid feed with high side float

  • Oil separators for reciprocating compressors

  • Oil pot for manual oil drain on ammonia packages

  • One brine/glycol pump, one stand-by brine/glycol pump for single rink packages

  • Microprocessor control system (wired)
