Case Studies Mobile Chiller Hire and internal air handlers supplied for cooling workers in process factory in South Wales
Watkins Hire installed a mobile 170kw chiller hire unit with 6 off 30kw internal air handlers as temperatures soared to 32° C in the process area.
Three 30kw internal air handlers with individual thermostatic control installed to cool process area and maintain comfortable working condition.
170kw temporary Trane chiller hire unit positioned outside the factory.
The Problem
Due to their recent expansion the food processing company was experiencing unacceptable temperatures in there process area, the addition of two new machines that were constantly generating heat had made working conditions very uncomfortable with temperatures soaring up to 32° C, the engineering manager advised our South Wales Sales Engineer Jason Campbell, he was looking for a solution to cool the processing area which now had four machines in constant use generating large amounts of heat and workers were threatening to down tools.
The Solution
They looked at many solutions, and had received quotations for both rental and sales options, Jason Campbell was cold calling in the area at the time and offered our Chiller hire services, After carrying out a site survey it was decided a 170kw chiller and 6 x 30kw air handling units were what was needed, a quotation was completed whilst still on site, the Chiller hire quotation was much more cost effective than the quotes supplied by our competitors, the quote was accepted and the brand new Trane Chiller hire and air handler hire equipment was installed and running the very next day to the delight of the workers and management.
Sales Engineer Jason Campbell said
“Installation was not straight forward as there was limited space in which to place the air handling units due to lifting equipment which needed to be used in the area, but after consulting with the workers suitable positions were found. Once the units were installed and running it reduced the temperature from 32 degrees to 22 degrees within hours which made the processing area a much more comfortable place to work and put smiles on the workers faces”
The chiller selected for this project was the new KwikCHILL 170 chiller hire unit as it had the following features that provided speed of installation and allowed the speedy positioning on site and connection to six off 30kw internal air handlers systems is made simple by using quick fit flexible hoses.
The six off internal air handlers were each fitted with thermostatic control to provide accurate temperature control within the process area.
The engineering manager said
“We have worked with other companies in the past for temporary cooling; the speed in which Watkins had reacted and helped them out of a potentially tricky situation at a fraction of the price of our competitors, and he would be happy to use and recommend Watkins Hire in the future, we were also very surprised by the standard of the equipment supplied and the level of service supplied by Watkins Chiller Hire. We are very pleased with the process cooling project and our procurement are now discussing a permanent chiller and air handler installation. They handled the whole project with same day installation and commissioning, we have decided to keep the chiller on hire unitl we purchase our new cooling system.”
