The VihoX-10AC 10HP air-cooled industrial water chiller is built for heavy-duty thermal regulation across high-output cup making machinery and compact multi-station blister formers. Packing 28.5 kW (24,510 kcal/h) of cooling capacity and a 9.08 kW scroll compressor, this unit easily absorbs intense thermal loads from multi-cavity drink cup molds running continuous 30+ cycles per minute. Its large 200-liter SUS304 stainless steel buffer reservoir dampens cooling water temperature spikes during rapid mold open/close intervals.
Featuring dual independent refrigeration safety monitoring and four front-mounted process pressure gauges, the VihoX-10AC delivers total operational visibility. An internal pump circulating 4.89 m³/h through DN32 ports ensures high-velocity turbulent flow inside mold cooling channels, preventing hot spots and uneven cup wall shrinkage. Condenser heat rejection of 10,000 m³/h via dual overhead axial fans maintains high energy efficiency ratios even during peak summer ambient plant temperatures.
Before export clearance, the VihoX 10HP industrial chiller undergoes comprehensive pre-shipment quality auditing. We benchmark continuous 28.5 kW heat extraction rates, check high-pressure cut-off trip accuracy under throttled air conditions, and log pump head delivery through DN32 headers.

The VihoX-10AC is ideal for cooling high-capacity cup machines like the VihoX-720, VihoX-750, or VihoX-850-B/C, as well as compact 3-station thermoforming lines producing clamshell containers or cup lids.
The quad gauge cluster provides immediate visual readouts for refrigerant high pressure, refrigerant low pressure, water pump discharge pressure, and return loop pressure, allowing maintenance technicians to verify circuit balance at a glance.
The 200L reservoir acts as a thermal flywheel, storing a large reserve of chilled fluid that buffers against short-term temperature surges when large aluminum mold plates absorb heat from thick plastic sheets.
An integrated digital anti-freeze thermostat continuously monitors evaporator water temperature and cuts power to the compressor contactor if loop fluid drops below 2°C, preventing coil ruptures.
While primarily intended for indoor plant floor installation, it can be situated under an outdoor sheltered roof with adequate ventilation, provided electrical enclosures are protected from direct rain driving.
The internal water circuit features a cleanable Y-strainer before the pump intake; we recommend flushing the strainer screen monthly to maintain full 4.89 m³/h flow velocity through mold channels.
The unit employs an industrial fully hermetic scroll compressor, chosen for its 70% fewer moving parts, lower vibration harmonics, and superior tolerance to liquid refrigerant slugging compared to reciprocating designs.
Every VihoX-10AC ships with an English operation and maintenance manual, complete electrical schematics, CE declaration, and factory test inspection certificates.

A 10HP chiller is usually the temperature-control half of a two-part plant cooling scheme, and the other half is a VihoX 80 ton cooling tower. Where the same hall runs pneumatic forming, a 30HP PM VSD compressor supplies the air, and this frame is commonly specified with sheet extrusion lines whose roll cooling needs accuracy.
