Correct selection of fin separation of DL, DD and DJ air coolers according to the relative humidity of refrigerating room.
The blade separation of air cooler depends not only on the working temperature, but also on the relative humidity in the refrigeration room. The wrong choice will lead to excessive frost, frequent melting cycles and high energy consumption.
In the fresh food preservation room, the temperature is between 0 C and+8 C, and the relative humidity is between 75-85%. DL cooler with 4-4.5mm fin separation is used. This tight separation provides a large area of heat exchange for positive temperature, in which the formation of frost is very low.
For the room with medium temperature,-5 C to-12 C and high relative humidity, choose DD model with 6 mm wing partition. The large gap between plates can prevent frost from closing the air passage quickly. If the humidity exceeds 88%, it is recommended to choose top separation within DD range.
For the deep freezer from-15 C to-25 C, with strong frost formation, DJ cooler with 7-9 mm fin separation is used. Highly separated fins allow longer operation between thawing cycles.
A common mistake is to choose fin separation only according to temperature, ignoring humidity. For example, in a room with a humidity of-10 C and greater than 90%, more separation rooms are needed than in a room with the same temperature but lower humidity. If the separation is insufficient, it should be thawed every few hours.
According to the data of xindacool, if the fin gap is too small for the actual humidity of the camera, the energy consumption of the system may increase by as much as 33%. In addition, the temperature change in the room will expand, affecting the preservation of stored products.
When the humidity is very high, besides choosing proper blade separation, D series hydrolysis system should also be considered. The system can effectively remove a lot of frost in wet environment.
The choice of blades indirectly affects capacitors FNH, FNH,FNV,FNVT. If the evaporator is often blocked by stones, the overall performance will decrease, and the condenser will work under unfavorable load, increasing its condensation pressure.
It must be remembered that blade separation is defined in manufacturing and cannot be modified in installation. The wrong selection can only be solved by replacing the whole evaporator.
FAQ
What is the fin separation of DL cooler used for fresh preservation? 4–4.5 mm separation, suitable for low frost positive temperature.
For a camera with-10 C and very high humidity, which range should I choose? DD model has a large fin separation, considering the humidity value.
What if fin separation is not enough for high humidity? It will cause rapid frost blockage, melt in large quantities, and the consumption will increase by as much as 33%.
Can the fin separation be changed after manufacturing? No, this is the factory parameter, which can only be solved by replacing the whole evaporator.
Will the choice of blades affect the operation of capacitors? Indirectly, freezing the evaporator worsens the working conditions of FNH, FNH,FNV,FNVT.
