Summary

Although ice-water air conditioning is established technology, it also represents the technology of the future. By containing the refrigerant inside the liquid chiller, the system complies with environmental regulations, which increasingly aim to reduce the amount of refrigerant in plants. Energy consumption is also an important concern. Manufacturers of ice-water production units are therefore working to optimize the yield of their units, while at the same time reducing the energy consumption. This is also true for ice-water circuit auxiliaries, i.e. pumps and circulators. These devices are often poorly sized and therefore consume a lot of energy. Electronic speed variation provides a solution tthat rapidly reduces energy consumption. Environmental considerations also imply the need to increase plant life expectancy. Water treatments, which protect the metallic components of the circuit, are therefore applied to improve the efficiency of plants and increase their life expectancy.
