Low temperature cold trap and low-temperature circulation chiller (Ⅲ)

Dec. 30. 2025

Comparison of core differences

1. Different functional positioning

Low temperature cold traps are mainly used for material separation and capture, while low-temperature recirculating chiller focus on temperature control and heat transfer.

2. Differences in working methods

Cold trap is a passive operation that relies on natural condensation on low-temperature surfaces; The circulation chiller works actively by pumping coolant to achieve heat exchange.

3. Temperature range

Cold traps typically achieve lower temperatures (especially when using liquid nitrogen), while circulation chiller have a relatively narrow temperature range but higher control accuracy.

4. System complexity

The cold trap structure is relatively simple, while the circulation chiller includes multiple complex components such as a compressor, pump, and control system.
