Armfield – Miniature-Scale Research & Development Technology – F63 Laboratory Process Chiller
The FT63 is a recirculating process chiller, providing a continuous supply of chilled liquid to serve as the cooling fluid when used with an Armfield miniature-scale processing unit. It is particularly suitable for use with an Armfield FT74/FT74XTS UHT system.
The FT63 contains a reservoir of cooled fluid, which is pumped through the external process to be coole (eg heat exchanger system).
The cooling fluid can be water, or a mixture of glycol and water, dependent on the output temperature required. This fluid is cooled by the integral refrigeration system.
A high-pressure pump is used to pump the fluid through the process. A bypass valve facility enables the fluid to be recirculated independently of the process conditions.
Compressor:
Reciprocating hermetically sealed compressor with a refrigerant cooled motor.
Evaporator:
Packaged coil type made of copper tubes and aluminium fins.
Condenser:
Single air-cooled condenser manufactured from aluminium fins mechanically bonded to refrigeration grade copper tubes. The condenser fan is of a low-noise axial type. Fan blades are fully enclosed by a safety grill.
