      Free coolers

      i am interested in operation of winter chillers with free coolers

      • Hey Anthony,

        Can you give us a little more context?

        Are you looking to learn more about dry coolers, or are you trying to modify one of your existing plants?

        It would also help if you could introduce yourself, give us a bit of background on your system, let us know what you’ve tried so far, and explain what you’re ultimately looking to accomplish. The more information you can provide, the better we’ll be able to help.

        A few questions that would be useful:

        * What type of chiller are you using?

        * Are you planning to run the dry cooler and chiller together, or are you looking to switch over to the dry cooler during colder weather?

        * Are you looking for design guidance, troubleshooting, or training material?

        With a little more information, we’ll be in a much better position to point you in the right direction.

        • I think I have something that may be what your looking for, I Have severaal YVFA manuals (York Air Cooled Centrifugal chiller with Onboard Free cooling and adibatic Condenser spraying. The manuals are very large and I keep getting invalid when I try to upload. to here and Im trying to see how to put in members files now
