The Remcor CH550A is an air-cooled, recirculating liquid chiller engineered for precise temperature control in laboratory and industrial cooling applications. This 0.5 ton capacity unit circulates water, glycol, or other process media through a complete refrigeration system with closed-loop temperature stability of ±1°F. A single 0.5 HP compressor with automatic restart capability and R-134A refrigerant deliver dependable performance across the 40°–100°F operating range. The unit features a 2-gallon reservoir, magnetic drive pump with optional bypass valve, and an Eliwell IC902 thermostat controlling outlet or inlet temperature sensing. An LCD display continuously monitors process media temperature. Built-in sheet metal construction with perforated panels ensures efficient air circulation and thermal management.
