80 ton chiller, what should I look for

[Dr. Dendrostein]

OK guys, gotta a good deal on 80 ton chiller. What should I check for on it?



What's 80 tons. Machine can make 80 tons ice in 24hrs. That's alot of ice. Heehee

Leaks in water pipes. Leaks in froen system. Electric system etc. Run some water through it and use polyfilter to check for metals like copper etc.
On side note why do you need a chiller that big.
It's going to cost you tons to run that thing.
Is it 440-480v 3 phase?

 

[Dr. Dendrostein]

Ok, what else guys.

 

[Dennis McGrath]

This IS a joke, right?

 

[Dr. Dendrostein]

This IS a joke, right?

What's your talking about , I live in one of the richest places in world. Million Dollar tanks by Newport beach, common.

 

[Dennis McGrath]

I'd love to see someone hook that up to a 10 gallon nano.

 

[Dr. Dendrostein]

Heehee

If it's an ice maker it won't work as a chiller.

 

[Dr. Dendrostein]

No all refrigeration is rated that way. Your home central air is either 2,3,3.5,4,5 ton. Just a rating

 

[Blue Spot Octopus]

Sorry you are not that close to Newport Coast, LOL even there only a couple of houses could pull that off. Maybe Sea World.

 

[Dr. Dendrostein]

Got me, but, sound good for awhile

 

[Dr. Dendrostein]

Don't forget, never said for my home.

 

[Dr. Dendrostein]

Ok, we got side tracked. What else to check on chiller?

 

[joseserrano]

If you were installing this, in a tank that big, for a person that rich, I would go new. They could afford it, and the risk vs the reward isn’t big enough.

 

[Dr. Dendrostein]

Don't forget not for me, my profit. $250,000, free & clear

Got it. Best of luck sir.

 

[Dr. Dendrostein]

For an ethnic group, I won't say here, but very cheap habits

 

[Dr. Reef Verified Sponsor]

How big is the tank what's the volume they might be an Overkill

 

[Dr. Dendrostein]

I would have to check title24 plans. Big I guess?

 

[Dr. Reef Verified Sponsor]

80 tons would be probably for a volume of 15 to 20000 gallons
