RIGID HVAC CO., LTD
Direct Refrigeration Unit
Direct Cooling Unit—an advanced direct refrigeration solution engineered for superior temperature control across various applications. Whether you're seeking optimal refrigeration performance, efficient electronic cooling, or refrigerator heat dissipation, our Direct Cooling Unit delivers unmatched results.
Some of the leading laser manufacturers are exploring an innovative approach called direct expansion cooling. In this method, the refrigerant flows directly through the cold plate, propelled by the compressor. This approach offers several advantages, including the elimination of a liquid recirculating pump, fluid reservoir, tubing, and connectors—common sources of failures and leaks.
The efficiency is significantly enhanced by eliminating losses associated with cooling a liquid, resulting in energy savings (8 times less than thermoelectric coolers and 2 times less than liquid chillers). Data from our laboratory, the cooling capacity for direct refrigerant is 25% greater than that of a liquid chiller at 25 degrees Celsius. The system is simplified, enhancing reliability and reducing the overall size of the cooling system.

Direct Expansion Refrigeration System Cycle
RIGID HVAC specializes in providing highly efficient and reliable refrigerated cooling systems. We have developed the world's smallest rotary compressor and offer custom solutions for various industries, including food, laser, medical, industrial, battery, electric vehicles, and military applications.
Notable products include AlphaCooler, designed for driver body cooling in racing and motorcycles, and compact Liquid Chiller, a core component for liquid refrigeration systems.
RIGID also excels in direct expansion cooling, simplifying system configurations, and maximizing efficiency, particularly in laser, semiconductor, and medical device applications. RIGID company's expertise and proven track record highlight its commitment to delivering compact, efficient, and durable cooling solutions.
DX System Cooling Cycle
Direct refrigeration systems operate by directly connecting the customer's evaporator. The evaporator, placed in the area to be cooled, cools the space by expanding the refrigerant in its coil and absorbing heat from the surroundings.
Examples of systems using this approach include mini-refrigerators, cooling for laboratory equipment, precision instrument cooling, and equipment that needs direct refrigerant cooling packages.
Direct Cooling Features
- 40% greater cooling capacity.
- Maintenance-free and factory-sealed.
- Improved efficiency and energy savings.
- Refrigerant flows directly through the cold plate.
- Smaller and lighter than traditional liquid chiller systems.
- Ideal for laser, semiconductor, and medical device applications.
- No need for pumps, reservoirs, or tubing, reducing potential failures and leaks.
- Simplified system for high reliability (mean time between failures > 90,000 hours).
