The Koolance VLX-450 Chiller subassembly is now available for order. The VLX-450 is a ready-to-integrate, inline, open frame chiller rated at 450W of cooling with a 0°C liquid-ambient delta. The VLX-450 uses standard G 1/4 fittings so the chiller can be easily added into any existing standard cooling loop.
The VLX-450 chiller moves coolant through its stainless steel plate heat exchanger. The VLX-450 features a mounted control knob that allows the user to adjust the compressor’s cooling performance. Also, the wire terminals of the chiller are placed in a readily-accessible location if ever an alternative control scheme is desired by the user. Note that fittings and coolant pump are not included with the chiller sub-assembly.
Key Features
- Cooling capacity of 450W (1535BTU/hr) @ 25°C liquid/ambient
- Refrigerant: R-134a
- Power input: 24VDC, 250W
- Designed for an operational temperature range of 0-40°C (ambient and liquid)
- G 1/4 BSPP threads on plate heat exchanger for inlet/outlet fittings
The Koolance VLX-450 chiller requires a 24V DC input power which Koolance also offers separately for $89.99 MSRP. See the Koolance PSU-EXC450 DC Power Supply for 24V Systems here. Koolance also notes to keep the chiller unit upright at all times. For first use after installation, ensure the chiller is upright for at least 24 hours before applying power to ensure sufficient oil reaches the compressor.
