Online Refrigerant Reclamation & Chiller Efficiency

Large cooling systems need both continuous operation and effective maintenance. Based on the video description from FLYING KING RECYCLING ENGINEERING CO. , LTD. (鴻太工程), this article explains KOOLTEC online refrigerant reclamation and the conditions to review before connecting equipment to a running chiller.

Parallel connection during operation

The video describes reclamation equipment connected in parallel with an operating air-conditioning unit. Suitability for online work requires confirmation of connection interfaces, operating conditions and installation arrangements.

Three treatment objectives

Reclamation addresses contamination rather than simply transferring refrigerant out of a system. The described treatment targets:

  • Excess refrigeration oil in the system.
  • Contaminants carried by the refrigerant.
  • Non-condensable gases that affect circuit operating conditions.

Applications and energy assessment

The video identifies large chillers, industrial refrigeration and process cooling applications. Review capacity, refrigerant, operating history and maintenance records. Compare power consumption, cooling output and E.E.R. at comparable loads and operating conditions, including the reclamation equipment’s own energy use.

The description reports E.E.R. improvement of 5–30%, approximately 5–7 days of automatic operation, over 70% less maintenance labor and 15–30% less refrigerant waste. These are reported benefits, not guaranteed results for every system; verify against contamination, equipment condition and site measurements.
