Active Compression and Water Chiller Cold Exchanger Loop
The RIGID Mini Compressor Water Chiller is a device used in clinical settings to cool a patient's body before or after surgery. The Mini Water Chiller works by using a miniature DC compressor to circulate chilled water through a closed loop system.
Before surgery, the chiller is typically used to cool the patient's body temperature to reduce the risk of bleeding during the procedure. This is achieved by circulating chilled water through a special blanket or pad placed on the patient's body.
After surgery, the cold pack can be used to reduce pain and swelling in the affected area. This is achieved by circulating the chilled water through a specially designed tube and cuff. There is no need for an ice pack or compression wrap to be applied to the affected area.

The RIGID mini chiller itself is typically a small, portable unit that can be easily integrated into medical equipment so that it can be moved from room to room or from patient to patient. It is designed to be quiet and unobtrusive so as not to disturb the clinical environment.
Overall, the mini-compressor water chiller is an excellent choice for clinical equipment, providing temperature-controlled cooling to reduce pain, swelling and bruising following surgery or injury. It helps to improve patient outcomes and speed up the recovery process after surgery.
The mini water chillers are often used in medical devices for patient body cooling, such as in clinics or hospitals. These devices work by circulating chilled water through a pad or garment that is placed on the patient's skin. The chilled water removes heat from the patient's body, helping to lower their core temperature and prevent overheating.
RIGID mini water chiller itself typically contains a compressor, a condenser, an evaporator, and refrigerant which is fully charged. The compressor pressurizes the refrigerant, which then flows through the condenser, where it gives off heat and condenses into a liquid.

The liquid refrigerant then flows through the evaporator, which is where the chilled water is circulated.The chilled water passes through the evaporator, absorbing heat from the refrigerant and cooling down in the process.
The chilled water is then circulated through the pad or garment that is placed on the patient's skin, helping to reduce their body temperature.The warm refrigerant gas that is produced as a result of the heat exchange in the evaporator is then returned to the compressor, where the cycle begins again.
Mini Water Chiller Suitable for Medical Device and Clinical Field of ApplicationThis continuous cycle allows the mini water chiller to maintain a consistent supply of chilled water, which is essential for effective patient body cooling.
