CAT NO: DIDACTICNLE-Export-182003
Ice Plant Trainer.
Ice Plant Trainer
The Ice Plant Trainer is designed to demonstrate ice manufacturing
process & to analyze Refrigeration Cycle at low temperatures. The
ice plant capacity is 10 Kg/day.
The trainer uses Hermetic
Compressor, Air Cooled Condenser, Capillary Tube & coiled evaporator
immersed in brine tank. Ice cans are placed in brine tank on a steel
frame. Low speed stirrer is fitted to the brine tank to maintain uniform
brine temperature. Brine tank is insulated & inner tank is made of
stainless steel.
CFC free refrigerant R-134a is used in the system & is pre charged in the system.
Instruments
to measure Cycle Pressure, Temperatures at different points, Power
Consumption are fitted on Instrument panel. Flow of refrigerant is
measured on Glass tube Rotameter fitted with calibrated scale. High
& Low Pressure cutoff switch & thermostat are provided as safety
devices.
