Glycol Power Pack Draft Beer Chillers

Glycol Power Pack Draft Beer Chillers: The Key to Perfect Beer Dispensing

Glycol power-pack draft beer chillers maintain consistent cooling along long beer lines and are designed to transfer draft beer from kegs and beer coolers. Draft beer and kegs are stored in chillers to preserve their taste and flavor. Although air cooling is sufficient for kegerators and direct-draw systems, long-draw systems require an additional cooling system to maintain the perfect serving temperature for bars, restaurants, and other beer system operators.

What Are Glycol Power Pack Draft Beer Chillers?

Glycol power pack draft beer chillers are specialized commercial refrigeration systems that circulate a glycol-water solution at 29˚F (-1.66˚F) for cooling and at 32˚F (0˚F) when returning through insulated trunk lines alongside beer lines. This system keeps the beer cold as it travels from the keg cooler to the tap tower, over distances up to 750’ (228.6 m). Glycol power pack draft beer chillers deliver beer with ideal taste, carbonation, and temperature, even in high-volume operations.

Why Choose Glycol Power Pack Draft Beer Chillers for Your Draft System?

Because glycol power pack draft beer chillers facilitate draft beer service and enhance customer satisfaction with:

• Precise Temperature Control: Glycol chillers maintain beer at optimal dispensing temperatures (typically 36°F to 38°F / 2.2°C to 3.3°C) with digital thermostats and controls throughout the entire beer line. This precise control prevents temperature fluctuations that cause foam and spoil flavor.
• Compact Sizes: Despite their compact housing, measuring 25 to 27 inches (63.5 cm to 68.58 cm) wide and 16 to 25 inches (40.64 cm to 63.5 cm) high, glycol power pack systems come with powerful compressors rated at 1/3 to 1.5 HP.
• Long-Distance Cooling Performance: Glycol-powered refrigeration systems enable businesses to transfer draft beer over distances of up to 750 ft (228.6 m) while maintaining optimal serving temperature.
• Energy Efficiency: Modern glycol chillers use energy-efficient compressors and feature enhanced urethane foam insulation to reduce energy consumption and maintain steady cooling with minimal power.
• Various Capacities: Glycol power-pack draft beer chillers are available in 1-, 2-, and 3-pump models with supply capacities up to 80 GPH (302.88 l/hour). You can find different glycol bath volumes up to 11.5 gallons (43.53 l) to ensure a stable temperature even under heavy load.
