70 TON CHILLER UNITS MADE IN THE USA

70 Ton Water Chillers

Cold Shot Chillers’ two-stage air-cooled water chillers are made in the USA and built for durability. We offer 70-Ton chillers in several flow designs for process cooling in injection molding, tool and die cutting, and laser systems. Units come in stationary air-cooled and liquid-cooled versions without a pump or tank, or as portable systems with a robust pump and insulated reservoir. Options include reverse flow and continuous flow open loop.

70 Ton Water-cooled Units (Portable)

Cold Shot Chillers 70 Ton model WCWC-840-E water-cooled liquid chiller is designed to bring efficient and superior performance to all types of industrial applications. This machine can be used as a central chiller for indoor or outdoor mounting.  These self-contained water-cooled systems are made to accommodate a process cooling requirement.  Water-cooled chillers allow the refrigeration system to operate at lower head pressure, making them more efficient.  Arrangements available with a remote pump and tank.

Water-cooled chillers recirculate water to cool the refrigerant in the brazed plated fluid condenser.  This chiller includes and efficient water-cooled liquid condenser, high efficiency brazed plate stainless-steel copper brazed.  The refrigerant and cooling water from a cooling water source do not come in direct contact with each other, these flow in different pathways.  These units are usually installed indoors.  System capacity is the approximate 840,000 BTU/hr. based on a leaving fluid temperature of 50°F with a condenser water temperature of 85°F.  The 70 Ton portable water-cooled chiller weighs approximately 1,300 lbs. and has dimensions of 98” L x 55” W x 88” H.

Standard Features

  • Controls: Electronic programmed temp. controller with a constant (set point & process) temperature readout. (Easy to Use)
  • Refrigeration Components: Efficient scroll compressors, sight glass/moisture indicators, balanced port expansion valves, filter drier, access ports and or service valves, pressure actuated head pressure controls, liquid receiver.
  • Process Fluid Components: PVC “Y” strainer with 20 mesh stainless steel screen. Pumps are stainless steel centrifugal. Tanks are insulated with shoe box lid, fill port, and level sight glass. Portable systems will include a bypass flow valve.
  • Safety Controls: High and low refrigerant pressure controls, high and low fluid temperature, low water flow, thermal overloads for compressors, safety fuses or overloads for pump.

70 Ton Water-cooled Chillers (Reverse Flow)

The Cold Shot Chillers 70 Ton reverse flow water-cooled water chiller is well designed footprint with a PLC controlled and self-diagnostics, WIFI/LAN/LTE connectivity for predictive maintenance.  A 70 Ton model WCWC-840-E-RF water-cooled fluid chiller provides 840,000 BTU/Hr. of cooling capacity with 50°F leaving fluid temperature with 85°F incoming condensing water temperature.

Water-cooled chillers are designed to dissipate process heat into a cooling tower or large water body.  These units are used in many applications and can provide a constant performance. Liquid cooled chillers range in size and are typically compact and designed to reside indoors protected from outdoor ambient conditions.  While water cooled chillers can operate more efficient, it still requires an additional cooling tower system that will require additional installation and maintenance.
