Unlocking the Power of the AFT135 Water Chiller: A Comprehensive Training Solution for Next-Gen Technicians
In the evolving world of HVAC and thermal engineering, mastering the principles of cooling systems is non-negotiable. The AFT135 Water Chiller stands out not just as a piece of hardware, but as a complete learning ecosystem. Whether you’re in a classroom, workshop, or industrial training center, this equipment bridges the gap between theory and real-world application. Let’s dive into why the AFT135 is an indispensable tool for modern technical education.
I. Product Introduction
1.1 Overview
The AFT135 is a dedicated water chiller designed to produce chilled water for thermodynamic experiments. In many lab settings, continuous cooling is essential to create low-temperature environments or protect sensitive equipment from overheating. For instance, when testing various heat exchangers, a stable cold water supply is required to accurately determine heat transfer coefficients under controlled temperature differences. This makes the chiller a critical component in advanced thermal studies.
1.2 Features
Excellent Safety: Built-in electrical protection minimizes the risk of electric shock, ensuring a safe learning environment.
Integrated Design: The compact, centralized unit places no special demands on installation location, perfect for crowded labs.
Eco-Friendly Refrigeration: Uses environmentally friendly refrigerants without compromising cooling performance.
User-Friendly Operation: Ready to use right out of the box—no complex setup required.
II. Technical Specifications
Input Power Supply: Three-phase five-wire AC380V
Dimensions: 1320mm (L) × 580mm (W) × 1250mm (H)
Weight: 168 kg
Recommended Outlet Water Temperature Range: 5–25°C (High-temperature protection activates above 35°C)
Ambient Temperature Range: -10°C to +40°C
Relative Humidity: <85% (at 25°C)
These parameters make the AFT135 robust enough for industrial training environments while remaining precise for didactic purposes.
III.Accessories and Practical Application
3.1 Main Unit Components
The main unit includes several key components: the condenser and evaporator fans, a water outlet temperature display instrument, a return water outlet temperature display instrument, a low pressure gauge, a high pressure gauge, a mechanical flow meter, and the inlet and outlet nozzles.
3.2 Power Box Components
The power box houses the outlet water temperature display instrument, the return water temperature display instrument, an actual display temperature meter, a set temperature display instrument, and a button matrix for user control.
3.3 Equipment Configuration List
The AFT135 comes equipped with one compressor, one circulating pump, one insulated water tank, two cooling fans, and one mechanical flow meter. This modular configuration allows learners to interact with real industrial components, making it a premier industrial training equipment solution.
The AFT135 is not just functional hardware—it’s a complete technical teaching equipment platform. The following experiments are designed to build hands-on competencies:
Experiment 1: Understand the mechanical structure of the chiller
Experiment 2: Demonstrate the electrical connections of the chiller
Experiment 3: Demonstrate the pipe connections of the chiller
Experiment 4: Demonstrate the use of the chiller
Experiment 5: Demonstrate the control logic of the chiller
These progressive exercises develop technical skills training equipment proficiency, from basic identification to advanced troubleshooting.
