At the heart of a medical machine is a helium-based cooling system that maintains required low temperatures of the magnet which is the main component of the energy and IOT scanning device. The helium cooling system generates substantial heat while in operation. If this heat is not removed equally efficiently the helium being a very low-density gas starts to leak into the atmosphere and this can cause two major problems – one raise in temperature of the magnet and two loss of helium which is a rare and scarcely available gas. This can cause not only stoppage in scanning but also a major breakdown of the medical scanner. In addition to the helium system the medical machines also have a lot of electrical and electronic devices attached to it which generate a lot of heat. To keep the medical devices continuously operational and free from probable breakdowns we need a robust chiller that can recirculate chilled water and remove the excess heat from the helium system as well as the electrical and electronic systems in the medical device.

Drycool has a specific range that is designed taking into consideration criticality of the application as well as the requirement of reliability. Drycool’s chillers are designed using state of the art components and comes with built in redundancy for the refrigeration and hydraulic systems of the chiller. These chillers are designed to operate in outdoor harsh environments and in places of high altitude and humidity.

Drycool has developed an inverter-based chiller for the same solution where the user can save at least 30% on energy costs thereby also reduce carbon footprints. The criticality of this application being very high, all chillers in this range are IOT enabled and can be chosen. Drycool is one of the major suppliers of chillers for the MRI applications for Siemens, Phillips, and other MRI machine manufacturing companies.
