Working Principle of D Series Hydrolyzed Air Cooler for Industrial Freezer
D series hydrolytic air cooler uses liquid water spray to remove frost accumulated on blades, which greatly shortens the duration of melting cycle.
The model is based on the basic structure of DD or DL series evaporators, with additional pipeline circuits, nozzles and oversized drainage systems. When the system activates the defrosting cycle, the fan stops and opens the water valve to spray filtered water to the entire surface of the heat exchanger. Liquid water transfers heat and melts frost in a short time.
The whole hydrolysis cycle is usually completed within 12-18 minutes, while the electrolytic equivalent evaporator takes 25-40 minutes. Field measurement shows that each deicing cycle can shorten the downtime of evaporator by 48% to 55%. This advantage is very valuable in a 24-hour continuous cold storage room.
The water consumption of each D series unit depends on its physical size; The standard model consumes 0.6 cubic meters to 1.1 cubic meters of water in each complete melting cycle. The water used should be filtered by an 80μm filter to prevent solid particles from blocking the small nozzle. Nozzle blockage accounts for 63% of the reported failures of such equipment.
D series hydrolysis system will not change the rated refrigeration capacity of blade separation or basic evaporator. According to the technical documentation of xindacool, this is an auxiliary thawing system; The heat exchange characteristics are the same as those of the original DD or DL model. No higher refrigeration power is obtained, only faster thawing.
The reliable operation of this technology has a clear temperature limit. It is not recommended to continuously use the internal temperature of the refrigerator below-28 C. At lower temperature, some water sprays can be frozen before draining, which will produce ice accumulation at the bottom of the equipment and reduce its performance in the medium term.
Drainage is one of the key installation points of D series hydrolytic air cooler. The minimum slope of the exhaust pipe should be 2%, and the diameter should be larger than the electrolytic model. If the drainage does not meet these specifications, water and ice will accumulate, which will eventually lead to repeated failures of evaporation equipment.
The system can be programmed by time or by frost sensor signal to activate melting. Sensor programming reduces the total number of cycles and avoids unnecessary melting of water and energy. This option is especially recommended for facilities with large humidity changes in the refrigerated room throughout the year.
When D series equipment is paired with FNH, FNV or FNVT air-cooled condenser, its size rules are the same as those of DD or DL basic evaporator. The hydrolysis system will not change the overall refrigeration load of the system, so there is no need to exceed the standard 15% of the size of the condenser.
FAQ
How long does the D series hydrolysis cycle take? The whole cycle usually ends after running for 12-18 minutes.
What percentage of failures come from clogged nozzles? 63% of the failures are caused by nozzle blockage without proper filtration.
Is there a temperature limit for D series hydrolysis? Continuous operation in a cold room below-28 C is not recommended.
Will hydrolysis increase the cooling capacity of evaporator? No, it will only improve the thawing process and will not change the rated cooling power.
What is the minimum slope of the drainage pipeline? The drainage pipe must maintain a slope of at least 2% for proper drainage.
Do capacitors of D series equipment need to be oversized? No, the 15% safety margin of the corresponding basic evaporator applies.
