Methanol Chiller
A Methanol Chiller is a specialized low-temperature refrigeration system designed to use methanol as a secondary heat transfer fluid for achieving sub-zero cooling applications. Methanol-based chilling systems are widely used in industries where water or glycol cannot be used due to freezing limitations at very low temperatures.
Methanol acts as an antifreeze medium and enables efficient heat transfer at extremely low temperatures without solidification. This makes methanol chillers ideal for industrial processes that require stable and reliable cooling below 0°C.
At HiTech Sales & Service, we manufacture and supply high-performance Methanol Chillers engineered for precision cooling, energy efficiency, and continuous industrial operation. Our systems are designed to deliver consistent low-temperature performance even under demanding process conditions.

Working Principle
A Methanol Chiller operates on the vapor compression refrigeration cycle and uses methanol as a secondary refrigerant to transfer cooling effectively at low temperatures.
1. Refrigeration Cycle Cooling
The primary refrigerant absorbs heat in the evaporator and cools the methanol solution circulating through the system.
2. Methanol Circulation
The chilled methanol is pumped through pipelines to the process equipment where low-temperature cooling is required. It absorbs heat from the process and returns warmer to the chiller.
3. Heat Exchange Process
Inside the evaporator, heat from the methanol is transferred to the refrigerant, causing the refrigerant to evaporate into a low-pressure vapor.
4. Compression Stage
The refrigerant vapor is compressed by the compressor into a high-pressure, high-temperature gas.
5. Heat Rejection
The refrigerant passes through the condenser where heat is removed using air or water cooling, converting it back into a high-pressure liquid.
6. Expansion Process
The liquid refrigerant expands through an expansion valve, reducing pressure and temperature before returning to the evaporator.
7. Continuous Cooling Cycle
The system continuously circulates chilled methanol to maintain stable sub-zero temperatures for industrial applications.
