Eutectic Chiller

Eutectic system stores up to one or two day’s refrigeration requirements in advance, usually involving only one or two long run periods per day. Cabinet temperatures are sustained by the eutectic mass to keep the chilled & frozen products in its storage temperature even long [10 to 12 hrs.]Power failure. Other refrigeration types having virtually no similar hold-over ability have to cycle once or twice per hour on demand, therefore consuming more power. These eutectic systems are supplied with AC or DC refrigerating units

As an example, using a quantity of water as a eutectic solution and knowing that water's phase change occurs at approximately 0°c, this water will absorb and dissipate 80* (Yes eighty!) times as much thermal energy while freezing and thawing as it would for any other rise or fall of a degree centigrade. This phenomenon called 'Latent heat', multiplies the eutectic's thermal storage capacity many times providing huge hold-over periods where the unit stays off for many hours even days in cooler times.
