Low Pressure Evaporator Low Pressure

Liquid & Vapour Vapour

Heat In
The Evaporator
 It blows cold air
 It removes heat
 It can collect frost
 The refrigerant goes in as a liquid and
comes off as a gas
 Various sizes depending on freezer size
 Various types
Evaporators
 The Condenser
 Heat is rejected
 The heat can be reclaimed
 Various types-air cooled , water
cooled,evaporative
 Various sizes
Condensers
 The Compressor
 The Engine
 The Pump
 Sucks and blows
 Driven by a motor
 Various types
 It generates heat
 It compresses the gas
 Various sizes
Compressors
Coldstore
 The Electric drive motor
 Used to drive the compressor
 Generates heat
 Various types
 Different speeds
 Various sizes
 The Expansion Device
 Changes the refrigerant from high
temperature high pressure to low pressure
low temperature
 Different types
 Different sizes
