Air-Cooled Condensing Units | Craft Group
At Thermocraft, we use cutting-edge commercial refrigeration condensing unit technology and the optimal combination of refrigerant, horsepower, and temperature to ensure that the units not only work but work to their full potential.
Let’s begin with the basics.
What exactly is the purpose of a condensing unit? Converting a refrigerant from a gas to a liquid in order to remove heat.
How do condensing units function as part of the refrigeration cycle? Let’s go exploring.
The ingredients within the process are as follows:
Compressor, Condenser, Meter Device/Expansion valve, Evaporator, Refrigerant and
The Compressor moves the refrigerant through the system.
The Condensing unit rejects the heat.
The Meter Device regulates the refrigerant flow.
The Evaporator absorbs the heat from the air and moves it back through the system.
Step 1:
The refrigerant is compressed as low pressure, warm gas, and exits as a high pressure, hot gas, which then enters the condenser. When you condense a fluid, the flow is reduced while the temperature and pressure rise. The refrigerant is compressed, causing it to reach higher temperatures.
Step 2:
The refrigerant cools from a hot gas to a warm liquid as it passes through the coils. A fan behind the coils draws air around the coils, allowing heat to be rejected from the condenser.
Step 3:
As the pressure drops, the expansion valve controls the flow of refrigerant into the evaporator. The refrigerant evaporates within the evaporator due to its heat.
Step 4:
The refrigerant is renewed into the refrigerant to restart the process.
