Chiller Unit without Water Tank

Product catalog summary
Overview: The document is a catalog for ORION Unit Coolers, specifically the RKS and RKL series, designed for industrial, agricultural, and food applications. These units provide efficient cooling solutions without water tanks.
Specifications: The units feature stainless steel coil type heat exchangers resistant to clogging. Cooling capacities range from 0.59/0.62 kW to 4.30/4.65 kW for the RKS series and 7.9/8.5 kW to 25.0/27.1 kW for the RKL series. They operate with three-phase 200 V or single-phase 100 V power supplies, suitable for ambient temperatures between 5 to 40°C and liquid temperatures from 5 to 25°C.
Features: Key features include built-in circulation pumps, digital temperature control, and external signal terminals. The units are compact, with controls concentrated on the front panel, equipped with multi-directional vents, and use high-efficiency refrigerants like R134a, R407C, and R410A.
Applications: The ORION Unit Coolers are used in various sectors: industrial (cooling tanks on extrusion machines, machine tool tank-water cooling, concrete production), agriculture (temperature management for hydroponics, shiitake mushroom log cover-water cooling), and food (cooling after vacuum packing, canned food cooling, food container cooling).
Performance and Construction: Designed to minimize clogging, the units can be disassembled for cleaning. They include features like a condenser filter and are rated for multiple power sources. Construction materials include ABS and SUS304 for durability.
Installation and Maintenance: The units are designed for easy installation with a low profile and concentrated control layout. They require a minimum water tank capacity, and the recommended chilled liquid is either clean water or a 30-40% industrial-use ethylene glycol solution.
Introduction: This document provides technical specifications and operational guidelines for the ORION IoT System and Unit Coolers, including details on refrigerants, temperature control, remote monitoring, and installation requirements.
Procedures: Instructions for downloading IoT software are provided, emphasizing that the software is available only in Japanese. The document describes the process for remote monitoring of ORION products, including email alerts for alarm conditions.
Standards and Ratings: The equipment is rated for IPX3, indicating splash-proof capabilities. It can operate with multiple power sources and includes features like digital temperature control and external signal terminals.
Recommendations: For optimal operation, consider the piping design to maintain prescribed resistance limits. The document advises selecting the appropriate model based on cooling capacity and operational requirements.
Key Data and Calculations: The document includes calculations for determining the amount of heat generated by equipment and the required cooling capacity, with examples of piping resistance calculations and head loss within PVC pipes.
Optional Features and Customization: Various optional features and customizations are available, such as special coatings, leak detectors, and different display languages. The document lists standard and special-order specifications for unit coolers.
Conclusion: This comprehensive guide ensures that users can effectively utilize ORION's cooling systems by understanding the specifications, installation requirements, and operational procedures.
Product Use Limitations: Failure to adhere to warnings may result in death or serious injury. The equipment should be installed in a level, vibration-free area that can support its weight. Safety devices and backup systems are recommended for critical installations.
Installation and Operation: Use rust-resistant piping and install a foot valve and strainer to prevent foreign matter intake. Ensure proper drainage and avoid using pure or treated sewage water. Maintain a clearance of 80cm around the unit and 200cm above for optimal performance.
Water Quality Standards: Cooling water should meet specific quality standards to prevent corrosion and scaling. Key parameters include pH, electrical conductivity, and ion concentrations. Regular water replacement is advised to maintain quality.
Maintenance and Inspection: Monthly checks for water cleanliness and condenser condition are necessary. Clean inverter cooling fans every six months and inspect pumps for leaks. Ensure power is applied 12 hours before initial test runs.
Model Specifications: Various models are available with different cooling capacities and control precision. Power sources vary between single-phase and three-phase, with specific requirements for each model.
Refrigerant Management: HFC refrigerants are used, requiring careful management to prevent environmental impact. Regular cleaning of condensers is essential to maintain efficiency and prevent damage.
Safety and Compliance: Read the operating manual thoroughly and ensure installation by qualified personnel. Use the equipment only for its intended purpose to avoid accidents or breakdowns.
Maintenance and Inspection: Regular water quality checks are essential for optimal performance. Extended use may lead to dirt accumulation or wear, reducing efficiency. Regular inspections and customer maintenance are recommended, with service and inspection fees applicable. For more details, contact your dealer or ORION directly.
Repair and Warranty: For equipment repairs post-warranty, customers are responsible for charges. Service procedures to improve function are available upon customer request.
Spare Parts Policy: ORION maintains a stock of replacement parts for seven years after product discontinuation to ensure functionality.
Global Presence and Certifications: ORION operates globally, with ISO9001 and ISO14001 certifications at its Main, Koshoku, and Chitose Plants. The company supports the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

RKS / RKL Series 2. Piping Resistance Calculations Piping methods and other particulars have a large effect on the flow rate, head, and resistance of the water cycle. Furthermore, safety devices may also be operating, so it is important to install a piping design that can keep within the prescribed piping resistance (head) limitations. The following describes how to calculate the head of a system. Hm = Total head ha = actual head (the difference in height between the water surface and the chiller) hv = velocity head delta (water resistance from the outlet ... generally about 0.5m~0.8m.) hf =...
