Used refrigeration equipment refers to refrigeration devices that have already been put into use in commercial or industrial settings, and after professional cleaning, leak detection, maintenance, repair, or complete refurbishment, can still stably achieve heat transfer, cooling, refrigeration, freezing, and constant temperature control. These devices are widely used in cold-chain logistics, food processing, hotel catering, chemical and pharmaceutical industries, cold storage warehousing, supermarket freshness preservation, industrial production temperature control, and other fields. Common types include chillers, cold storage units, air conditioning units, quick-freezing equipment, refrigeration compressors, condensing units, heat exchangers, and more.
I. Technical Principle
The equipment is based on the vapor-compression refrigeration cycle as its core principle: the compressor compresses low-temperature, low-pressure refrigerant into high-temperature, high-pressure gas; the refrigerant then releases heat to the outside through the condenser and condenses into high-pressure liquid; next, the throttling device reduces the pressure and temperature, allowing the refrigerant to enter the evaporator where it absorbs heat from the cooled space or medium, turning into low-temperature, low-pressure gas and returning to the compressor, thus completing the cycle and continuously achieving cooling, refrigeration, constant temperature, or freezing effects. The system is usually equipped with components such as fans, water pumps, heat exchange coils, expansion valves, temperature controllers, and pressure protection switches. Some large-scale units use screw-type or centrifugal compressors to meet greater cooling capacity requirements.
