Direct cooling block ice machines utilize direct evaporation ice-making technology, where the refrigerant absorbs heat inside the evaporator, cooling the water and forming ice blocks. This ice-making method is characterized by speed, energy efficiency, and environmental friendliness, making it suitable for cooling needs in the fisheries and seafood industries.
Block ice machine unit module: includes compressor, liquid receiver, water condenser, refrigeration piping, valves, control electrical box, etc. Cooling tower module: includes cooling tower, cooling water pump, cooling water pipes, etc. Evaporator module: primarily the evaporator and some auxiliary equipment. All modules comply with container transport requirements.
Ice machines are widely used in various commercial and industrial fields. Their main function is for rapid cooling and preservation. They are needed for cooling in infrastructure concrete mixing, aquatic product processing, slaughter processing, food processing, and other applications requiring temperature reduction.
Features of direct cooling block ice machines: 1. Energy saving: The evaporator is integrated into aluminum plate ice molds with good thermal conductivity, allowing direct heat exchange with the water in the molds, resulting in fast ice formation and 30% energy savings compared to ordinary brine block ice machines. 2. Fast de-icing: After water freezes into ice, the ice-making system reverses heating, with hot refrigerant entering the aluminum plate evaporator for de-icing. De-icing is rapid, capable of removing several tons to tens of tons of ice at once.
The aluminum alloy evaporator of fully automatic block ice machines is lightweight and easy to install. For the same evaporation area, the weight of aluminum alloy is one-sixth that of steel coils plus brine tanks, significantly reducing the footprint, facilitating installation, and lowering costs.
Baocheng aluminum alloy evaporators have excellent thermal conductivity, with aluminum's thermal conductivity being 2.9 times that of iron. The energy-efficient aluminum alloy evaporator has a heat transfer coefficient 1.43 times that of brine machine ice buckets. It meets cooling requirements quickly after startup, saving 30% energy and offering high comprehensive cost-effectiveness.
