How Do Portable Chiller Units Work?
01. Heat Exchange
Water or another cooling liquid absorbs heat from your process or equipment and this heat is directed to the evaporator in your portable chiller. The warm water passes over tubes containing water or a refrigerant liquid where the heat is transferred via evaporation.
03. Compression
Having absorbed heat from the water or liquid, the refrigerant moves to the compressor which is the next stage for the portable chiller. This is where the pressure and temperature of the refrigerant increases.
03. Condensation
The condenser is where the refrigerant gas passes through coils or tubes which is either cooled through ambient air, or water if you are using a small water chiller. Heat is absorbed and then released into the atmosphere, allowing the refrigerant gas to turn back into a liquid.
04. Expansion
At this point of the portable chiller process, the refrigerant is a high-pressure liquid so it passes through an expansion valve. Here its pressure drops which cools the refrigerant making it a low-pressure liquid that can be sent back to the evaporator to continue absorbing more heat from your process or equipment.

Glycol Chiller Units: FAQs
What is a portable chiller?
Chillers can consume significant electricity, especially in industrial settings. However, modern chiller units are designed to be energy-efficient, reducing overall energy consumption. Proper maintenance and choosing the right size for your needs can also help optimise energy usage.
What is a mini chiller?
A mini chiller is a compact chiller unit designed for small-scale applications. It provides efficient cooling for residential, small commercial spaces, or specific equipment, offering precise temperature control in a smaller footprint.
Do portable chillers work?
Yes, portable chillers work. They provide temporary cooling in various industries and applications. They offer flexibility, ease of installation, and reliable performance for both short-term and long-term cooling needs.
Do portable chillers use a lot of energy?
Portable chillers are designed to be energy-efficient, often incorporating advanced technologies to minimise energy consumption while providing effective cooling. Their efficiency depends on the model and application, but they aim to reduce energy usage as a whole.
