UNDERSTANDING THE ENVIRONMENT

Medical Imaging

For medical imaging to work properly, the equipment needs a reliable cooling system. A chiller helps by cooling fluids or air, which keeps the machine at the right temperature. Without it, the equipment could overheat and stop working, creating problems for both patients and doctors.

FIVE COMMON CHILLERS

Medical Imaging Machines That Need Chillers

MRI Chillers

MRI machines use magnetic fields and radio waves to create detailed body images, but they generate a lot of heat. MRI chiller is to cool the coldhead, an important mechanical component that recondenses helium gas back into a liquid after it has cooled the MRI magnet. This process prevents the helium from evaporating, keeps the magnet at the required temperature, helps avoid magnet quench. Replacing lost helium is very costly and directly affects patient care.

CT Chillers

CT scanners use X-rays to create 3D images and require a chiller to stay cool during long scans. Without cooling, they could overheat, stop working, or even cause burns.

X-Ray Chillers

X-ray machines use electromagnetic radiation and need chillers to prevent overheating. These cooling systems keep the machines running safely and reduce risks to patients.

Ultrasound Chillers

Ultrasound machines create images using sound waves and also need chillers to stay cool. Without proper cooling, they wouldn't work efficiently, affecting patient care.

Helium Compressor Chillers

Nuclear medicine imaging machines use radioactive tracers and require chillers to prevent overheating and breakdowns, ensuring safe and effective operation.

Medical Chiller Refrigeration Cycle

Technical Refrigeration Cycle
The refrigeration cycle in medical chillers uses a closed vapor‑compression loop to transfer heat away from temperature‑sensitive equipment. Starting at the compressor, refrigerant gas is pressurized and heated. It then releases heat in the condenser and becomes a high‑pressure liquid. Passing through the expansion valve, the liquid drops in pressure and temperature before entering the evaporator, where it absorbs heat and cools the target system. This cycle continuously repeats to maintain stable operating temperatures for medical imaging systems and other critical equipment.

MRI Chiller

How an MRI Chiller Refrigeration Cycle Works
An MRI chiller uses a vapor‑compression refrigeration cycle to remove heat from the MRI system and maintain safe operating temperatures for critical components. Refrigerant is compressed into a high‑pressure gas, then condensed into a liquid as it releases heat. After passing through an expansion valve to lower pressure and temperature, the refrigerant absorbs heat in the evaporator from the chilled water loop that cools the MRI equipment. The cycle repeats continuously to ensure stable performance and prevent overheating.
