Chillers

摘要

The present invention relates to a chiller of the type wherein water is used as refrigerant and lithium bromide or a similar compound as absorbant. A conduit or line is provided leading from the refrigeration pump which conveys dilute aqueous lithium bromide or similar compound, from the evaporator section. The line is provided with a valve for blocking fluid flow when not in use and for tight closure of the line. According to one embodiment, the conduit or line is adapted to be connected to a conduit leading to a purge storage tank through which dilute lithium bromide is introduced into the absorber.
