Used NESLAB CFT-300 #9236951 for sale

The 'NESLAB CFT-300' is a chiller from Thermo Scientific, providing reliable performance for a wide variety of applications. It is a recirculating, heat exchanger, offering rapid cool down rates, efficient operation and energy savings. This chiller has a cooling capacity of 2.5 kW and a temperature range of 0°C to 65°C. The system is made up of a hermetically sealed compressor, evaporator, condenser, and a receiver. This type of chiller operates by using a refrigerant fluid, typically R-134A, which is circulated through these components. The evaporator is a plate heat exchanger with porous media which increases the surface area contact and heat exchange for efficient operation. It is also water-cooled, which helps reduce condenser size. The evaporator removes heat from the system at a temperature below the ambient air. The compressed refrigerant is cooled and then transferred to the condenser. The condenser is a finned heat exchanger which eliminates potential for air locks. It uses an external water source to help dissipate the heat which is transferred between the condenser and the evaporator. The refrigerant then cools and is returned back to the evaporator. The receiver supplies additional volume capacity to ensure proper system operation. It stores the liquid refrigerant until called for by the thermostat. The unit also features a centrifugal pump with a variety of optional flow rates to meet different needs. This chiller is easy to operate, with controls for cooling, reservoir level monitoring, temperature regulation, overheat protection, outlet and inlet water temperature and other user-friendly features. CFT-300 not only provides cooling, but also energy efficiency. Its low-noise operation, low power consumption and heat recovery capabilities make it a cost-effective and reliable cooling solution for laboratory and industrial applications. In addition, the unit is designed to last, featuring corrosion-resistant construction and durable painted finish.
