Abstract (en)

Free cooling chiller (1) comprising a primary circuit (2) of a refrigerating plant, provided with an evaporator (6), a condenser group (5) and a compressor (4) and able to perform heat exchange by means of the evaporator (6) with a secondary circuit (3) for transferring refrigerating power to user appliances. The secondary circuit (3) is provided with a return line (10) intercepted by a free cooling group (13) and a circuit for bypassing the free cooling group. The chiller (1) is provided with a support structure (14) defining a containing compartment (16) acted on by an air flow produced by a ventilation unit (15). The condenser group (5) and the free cooling group (13), which are intercepted by corresponding gate valves (17,18), communicate via separate sections with the compartment (16).
