Polypoles, your partner in heating and cooling for professionals

With over 35 years of expertise in heating and cooling systems, Polypoles supports professionals in industry, construction, viticulture and logistics with their cooling needs. We offer a wide range of refrigeration units from 50 kW to 400 kW, available for rental or sale.

Our chillers are designed to ensure optimum performance in the most demanding environments, providing precise temperature control and reliable chilled water production, even in severe conditions.

What is a refrigeration unit?

A chiller is an industrial refrigeration system designed to lower the temperature of a fluid or an environment. It is based on a thermodynamic refrigerant cycle that captures heat from point A and rejects it to point B. This process, known as the refrigeration cycle, enables precise thermal conditions to be maintained, which are essential in many professional sectors.

Detailed operation of an industrial chiller

The operation of a refrigeration unit is based on a closed refrigeration cycle, using a refrigerant that changes state (liquid ↔ gas) according to variations in pressure and temperature. Here are the key stages of this cycle:

• Refrigerant compression: The compressor draws in the fluid at low pressure and low temperature. By compressing it, it increases its pressure and temperature, transforming cold gas into hot gas at high pressure. ➡️ This stage consumes energy (usually electrical) and is the driving force behind the refrigeration circuit.
• High-pressure gas condensation The fluid is transferred to the condenser, where it transfers its heat to the air or a water circuit. It then changes from a gaseous to a liquid state, while remaining under high pressure. ➡️ The thermal energy is evacuated, enabling cold to be produced in the next stage.
• Fluid expansion The refrigerant flows through the expansion valve, causing a drop in pressure and temperature. The fluid becomes partially gaseous and very cold. ➡️ This stage prepares the fluid to absorb heat from the medium to be cooled.
• Evaporation in the evaporator The fluid enters the evaporator, where it captures heat from the air, water or process fluid. It gradually evaporates, returning to its gaseous state. ➡️ This change of state produces the desired cooling effect.

The refrigerant then returns to the compressor, and the refrigeration circuit starts all over again. This continuous operation guarantees a stable temperature tailored to the needs of each industrial plant.

Chiller types and professional applications

At Polypoles, we offer chillers for every sector:

• Mono chiller : HLi range industrial chillers provide chilled water for your wine-making, industrial or commercial processes. Working temperatures from -10°C to 42°C and water settings from -5°C to 35°C. Ideal for industry and events, with our FP and HLBG fan coil ranges.

• Three-phase chiller The HLi three-phase chiller range produces chilled water from -5°C to 15°C at ambient temperatures from -10°C to 43°C. Ideal for industry and events, combined with FP30, FP50 or HLBG fan coils, or directly connected to your process.
