If any type of lubrication is dissolved or mixed up in oil it can affect the oil. You must check the oil condition before using it.
Make sure it’s suitable and according to your work requirements. Replace or change the oil once a month or as recommended by the manufacturers.
Don’t use excessively used oil it can damage your Oil Chiller parts and ultimately affect its efficiency.
How does a Lubrication System Works in an Oil Chiller?
An Oil Chiller has a lubrication system that reduces the friction in its several components to ensure optimum performance and minimal downtime.
Friction causes more energy consumption and heat generation.
The continuous movement of several parts of a machine requires lubricants to maintain its efficiency.
The lubrication system consists of a suitable oil that is forced onto the surface of parts of the Oil Chiller that needs it most.
Lubricating oil protects the machine from damaging itself due to excessive heat it produces in a process.
Lubricating system of an Oil Chiller Work in following steps:
Step 1: An oil pump forces the oil around the different parts and sites within your machine.
It has an electrical sensor to detect and monitor the temperature of the oil within it.
Step 2: An oil pump is used to move oil to its several parts including heat exchangers.
Step 3: The oil is then transported to the compressor.
Use the filter to transport clean oil to other parts.
The filter won’t let the dirt and contaminants enter the moving components as these can damage the machine.
If your Oil chiller suddenly lost electrical power, its components must have some lubricating oil available until they come to rest.
In case of immediate cut-off of an electrical power supply, the oil pump cannot provide lubrication oil until it stops.
The gravity-fed oil supply is provided by it to the lubricating system to overcome this problem.
Step 4: Oil is well distributed to all sections of the machine.
Oil chiller parts lubrication
How can you Calculate the Load of your Oil Chiller?

Where:
Q = heat load in British Thermal Units per Hour (BTUH)
M = flow in Gallons per Hour (GPM)
C = specific heat of the oil used.
You can also calculate load by another method mentioned below:
- Calculate BTUs per hour:
Pounds per hour× specific heat× ΔT = British Thermal Units per Hour
- Convert British Thermal Units Per Hour to Tons:
British Thermal Units per Hour divided by 12000 = Tons per hour.
- Calculate and Add a Safety Factor:
Tons per hour x safety factor = Chiller load in tons
How to Calculate Cooling Capacity of an Oil Chiller?
Each Oil Chiller has a specific cooling capacity depending upon its configurations and its internal system.
You can manually calculate its capacity using a simple formula mentioned here:
- Calculate the change in Temperature= Incoming oil Temperature (°F) – Required chill oil Temperature
- Calculate BTU/hr. multiply by BTU/hr. = Gallons per hour x 8.33 x change in temperature.
- Calculate its cooling capacity in Tons = Btu per hour divide it by 12,000
- Oversize the Oil Chiller by 20% Ideal Size in Tons = Tons x 1.2
Now you have the ideal size and capacity for your Oil Chiller.
How can you Calculate the Oil Pressure of your Oil Chiller?
Oil pressure plays a vital role in the optimum operation of an Oil Chiller.
Net oil pressure is the pressure that a pump creates to circulate oil throughout the system.
Knowing suitable pressure ranges for your Oil Chiller is mandatory for its Durability.
You can calculate the total oil pressure of a system by measuring the oil pressure at your discharge port.
Subtract the crankcase pressure from this quantity and you will get total oil pressure.
An accurate and suitable range of pressure as recommended by the manufacturers will help the compressor Work efficiently and uniformly.
If you don’t have the right oil pressure in it then it will run without lubricant and damage itself.
The oil pressure of your Oil Chiller should be neither too high nor too low.
It should be the same as recommended by the manufacturers with variations of 5%.
If your oil pressure is very high then it shows that your system has a blockage.
