Chillers for
Anodized Aluminum
Chillers to maintain an anodizing pan at a temperature between 20/28 °C cooling the Acid.
Chiller Calculation and Selection for Aluminum Anodizing Process Cooling:
Example of the calculation:
The tank is approx. 7000 liters (6,500 x 1,200 x 1000 mm) 250 kg of aluminum will be fed every 15 minutes and the system current is 5000 amperes.
This process generates an energy that is transformed into temperature, the liquid must be kept at max 28°C.
Formula
Anodized Chiller Capacity = Operating voltage x process amperage consumption x 3.42 /12,000 btu hr.
Anodized Cooling Calculation:
440 volts x 500 amps x 3.42 /12,000 = 62.7 tons capacity so a Chiller of at least 72 tons is required.
