2.3.2 Principles of operation
The whole range of water chillers supply chilled water (9) continuously at a constant temperature.
The chilling is accomplished in the following manner: An HFC refrigerant of either R134A (tetrafluo-
roethane) or R407C types is compressed (4) then chilled in a condenser (7).
A pressure regulator (12) causes a drop in pressure which leads to a drop in temperature. The drop in
temperature is transmitted to the water contained in the reservoir (19) through a heat exchanger (11).
The cold water leaves the reservoir (9) to chill the end use equipment and then returns back to the re-
servoir (8).
