As factories that use large-scale chillers for production processes, industrial chiller manufacturers often experience high energy consumption during production. In fact, the high energy consumption associated with the use of chillers in current industrial and agricultural production is no longer an isolated issue. To reduce the energy used in the production process, many manufacturers have made improvements to the way their equipment operates. Generally speaking, the high energy consumption issues encountered by industrial chiller manufacturers during production can be effectively reduced by implementing the following measures.   1. The use of chiller equipment also needs to vary depending on the season. For example, in summer, the air is relatively dry and the outdoor temperature is low in the mornings, but the indoor temperature is higher. In such situations, industrial chiller manufacturers can use air conditioning fans or fire exhaust systems for ventilation purposes, thereby reducing the indoor temperature before the units are turned on. This helps to lessen the operational load on the chillers and also improves the quality of the indoor air.   2. Monitor the indoor temperature and adjust the temperatures of the main components of the chiller as needed in response to changes in temperature. By shutting down equipment such as air handling units and fan-coil units, it is possible to control the indoor temperature effectively, reduce the thermal load generated when chiller units are in operation, and thus lower power consumption as well as the energy usage of end-use devices.   To control changes in indoor temperature, it is necessary to manage the use of temperature-regulating equipment such as industrial chillers and air conditioners in the facility, and to determine the optimal times for turning them on and off. Especially when the chilled water pump of the chiller unit is turned on to enable water circulation, changes in indoor temperature are extremely important.   3. During the periods of high temperatures in summer, such as from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. every day, when the indoor air temperature is at its highest, it is important to pay close attention to the operation of the chiller unit. The operating mode of the unit should be adjusted promptly; one should not wait until the indoor air temperature rises again and the unit has to handle a heavy heat load before starting it up. Such a usage pattern can easily damage the equipment, and it also increases energy consumption after the unit is started.   4. The quality of the chilled water and cooling water used in chiller units also needs to be ensured. Impure water quality will certainly cause the unit to operate at a slower speed when in use, as such impurity leads to scaling in some important components of the chiller, such as the condenser and evaporator, thereby increasing the power consumption of the unit.

The most effective measure for saving energy in chillers is to reduce the cooling temperature; this is what’s truly fundamental
