The heart of REFLAC system for direct ice water cooling is fully welded plate heat exchanger especially designed for direct ice water cooling. Heat exchanger delivers refrigerated water at +1 degC with ammonia evaporating temperature od 0 degC. In reality, the temperature of ice water varies between 0,5 and 1,5 degC. Compressors dedicated for maintaining evaporating pressure are frequency controlled and system also includes circulation pumps for ice water. System is protected with several surveillance tested protocols. It can be delivered in different capacities and equipped with one or more compressors. Compressors can be screw or reciprocating. There is a possibility of using existing compressors.

System operates with ammonia as primary refrigerant. It can be connected to existing central refrigeration system or delivered as standalone unit with integrated condenser and other necessary equipment.
