Capabilities

The GEA FX GC VP 260 is a compact ammonia refrigeration system designed to cool water for industrial processes. With a refrigeration capacity of 247kW, it uses an evaporative condenser and plate evaporator to efficiently cool secondary refrigerant (water) from 6°C inlet to 2°C outlet. The system operates at 1450rpm with robust pressure ratings (23bar high/16bar low) and maintains precise temperature control even in warm ambient conditions up to 35°C.

Industries & Uses

This type of ice water recooler is essential in food processing, beverage production, chemical manufacturing, and pharmaceutical industries—anywhere processes require reliable chilled water circulation. Breweries, dairies, and cold storage facilities depend on systems like this to maintain product quality and meet strict temperature requirements. It's equally valuable for facilities with existing ammonia infrastructure looking to upgrade or expand cooling capacity.

What to Check When Buying

When evaluating a used unit, prioritize reviewing complete maintenance records and compressor service history. Request inspection of the plate evaporator for scaling or corrosion, and verify the ammonia charge level and refrigerant purity. Check that vibration isolation mounts are intact and ask about condenser cleaning frequency. Ensure all safety shutdowns and pressure relief systems function properly, and confirm whether the system has been regularly serviced according to manufacturer specifications.
