Abstract
A refrigeration device according to the present disclosure is operated by switching the gas cooler to be used, and comprises a refrigerant circuit configured from a compression mechanism, a water-cooled gas cooler and an air-cooled gas cooler for cooling a refrigerant discharged from the compression mechanism, an expansion mechanism, and an evaporator, wherein, during a water-cooling operation in which the water-cooled gas cooler is used, excess refrigerant is recovered in the air-cooled gas cooler, thereby adjusting the amount of circulated refrigerant in the refrigerant circuit.
Claims5
A refrigeration device that operates while switching a gas cooler to be used, the refrigeration device comprising:
- a refrigerant circuit that is constituted by a compression mechanism, a water-cooling-type gas cooler and an air-cooling-type gas cooler that cool a refrigerant that has been discharged from the compression mechanism, an expansion mechanism, and an evaporator, wherein
- a circulation refrigerant amount in the refrigerant circuit is adjusted by collecting an excessive refrigerant into the air-cooling-type gas cooler during a water-cooling operation in which the water-cooling-type gas cooler is used.
