BAC will manufacture custom ICE CHILLER® Thermal Storage Coils to meet project specific requirements. BAC has done extensive research and testing on the build and melt characteristics of ice storage. This research and testing has resulted in selection capabilities unmatched by any other company in the industry.

BAC can predict the temperatures required on an hour-by-hour basis for building ice on custom coils, over a variety of conditions and build times. The physical space available, load profile, discharge temperatures, chiller capacity and operating sequences can be evaluated to find the design that best meets the application.

The ICE CHILLER® Thermal Storage Coils are constructed of continuous 1.05" O.D. all prime surface serpentine steel tubing, with no intermediate butt welds. The coils are assembled in a structural steel frame designed to support the weight of the coil stack with a full ice build. After fabrication the coils are tested for leaks using 375 psig air pressure under water, then hot-dip galvanized for corrosion protection.

For glycol applications the coils are configured to provide countercurrent glycol flow in adjacent circuits for maximum storage capacity.

Individual coils are factory-assembled into modules of two (2) coils. Glycol manifolds are coated with zinc-rich, cold galvanizing finish at the factory. Necessary support steel and lifting lugs are provided on the modules to allow for lifting into and final positioning within the storage tank.
