Overview

WinterKooler Series Supplemental Cooling Systems are used where heat recovery chilling systems are not required. AEC's WinterKooler Series system is an energy-saving supplemental chilling system that is designed to allow process cooling water to bypass your chiller whenever ambient air temperatures are low enough to provide sufficient cooling without mechanical refrigeration.

AEC has designed WinterKooler systems to be installed in conjunction with air-cooled or water-cooled chillers and will work with either a central or chiller-contained pump tank assembly.

Application note: To prevent freeze-up, the unit must be operated with at least a 50% water glycol mixture.

1. Based on 1 ton of refrigeration equal to 12,000 BTUH (metric equivalent: 3,024 Kcal/hr).

2. Flows are based on cooling 2.8 gpm per ton (1.07 lpm per 1,000 Kcal/hr) of 50% water / 50% ethylene glycol.

Chiller capacities are based on cooling 50% water and 50% ethylene glycol from 60°F to 50°F (15°C to 10°C) with 35°F (2°C) ambient air temperature. Specifications are for 230/3/60 or 460/3/60 operation at elevations under 1000 ft. above sea level. Consult factory for other applications.
