Water Cooled Condensers

A Water-Cooled Condenser is a heat exchanger that removes heat from refrigerant vapour and transfers it to the water running through it. Having the refrigerant vapour condensed on the outside of a tube achieves this. In doing so, the vapour condenses and gives up heat to the water running inside the tube.

• Where space is restricted for air cooled plant, a Water-Cooled Condenser is a good solution
• Thermal energy recovery to put into other heating processes
• More robust, reducing the need to replace as often as Air-Cooled Condensers
• Quite operation compared to Air-Cooled Condensers
• Energy efficient
• Can be housed indoors
• Higher heat transfer rate.

The range of uses for this heat will depend on the application and temperatures of the system, however typically could be used for:

• Steam system make-up water pre-heat
• Wash down water pre-heating
• Space heating
• Domestic hot water i.e. toilets, kitchens, laboratories, showers etc
• Boiler return water pre-heat
• Process heating
• Drying.
