Deep Freeze 20 Ton Chiller

Model: K2L20-LT-480/3

The Deep Freeze 20 Ton K2L is our highest-capacity low-temperature industrial chiller, purpose-built for heavy-duty sub-zero process cooling. This air-cooled stand-alone unit delivers up to 127,500 BTU/hr at 27.5°F (240,000 BTU/hr nominal) with a working fluid range of 10°F to 45°F — engineered for large-scale chemical processing, reactor cooling, aerospace testing, cannabis extraction, and industrial reactors. Features a Copeland scroll tandem-circuit refrigeration system with R454a low-GWP refrigerant, brazed plate heat exchanger, A2L leak detection, 5 HP centrifugal pump, 100-gallon poly tank, and a programmable HMI/PLC controller with Modbus TCP integration. UL/CSA certified and manufactured in the United States.

Pricing for the Deep Freeze 20 Ton Chiller

Pricing for this unit depends on two things: the tonnage (which you've already selected at 20 Ton) and the voltage configuration you need.

Three-phase 480V is typically the most cost-effective option for facilities that have it available — it allows smaller, more efficient electrical components than 208–240V three-phase configurations.

Ordering Guide

All voltage variants share the same 127,500 BTU/hr @ 27.5°F / 70°F cooling capacity and 10°F to 45°F fluid range. Choose the configuration that matches your facility's available power.

Need Different Specs?

These are our in-stock units — but we design and build custom chillers every day. Different capacity, temperature range, voltage, refrigerant, or footprint? Our engineering team can make it happen.

Don't Forget the Glycol

All North Slope chillers require propylene glycol to operate. If you don't already have glycol on hand, we carry a 50/50 premixed solution that's ready to pour — no mixing required.
